What are you snuffing?
 
I know I can't be the only nasal snuff user here.

I'm enjoying Samuel Gawith Banana tonight. It is fantastic!

http://www.marscigars.com/

Their CC acceptance had a glitch for a few months, but they have a great selection, great pricing, and good service.

A lot of folks recommend the mentholated snuffs for first timers. I figure a cigar smoker would like something more natural. Send me your address and I'll send you some samples to try.

Yep! Mike at Mars is very good. I have an order of Toque coming from over seas then noticed he sold it too!

I love all the Bespoke stuff. Gin & Tonic is my favorite.

Not familiar with nasal snuff. I looked up a how to site and it desscribed it as similar to snorting cocaine. Is this similar or way off base? Never used nasal snuff but very interested.

It actually is very similar to cocaine snorting. However, nasal snuff came before cocaine so, cocaine snorting is like snuffing! Nasal snuff gives you an immediate nicotine rush like nothing else. There are a wide range of flavors much like pipe tobacco. It's also really enjoyable for me to have some snuff before smoking a cigar. It enhances the experience.

Does it coat your lungs or just coat the inside of your nostrils? Snuff use before a cigar would probably change the whole flavor profile. Cool.

You have to snort pretty hard to even get it in your throat. The lungs are safe!

American snuff is nasal also? Or is it oral?

Andy,

Most of the stuff you see at the gas station, etc is oral snuff. You can find some American nasal snuff at a few drugstores, supermarkets, etc but not very often anymore. Mars Cigars mentioned earlier in the thread carries about 15 different brands of the nasal snuff. American snuff is drier and usually more potent than the European stuff.

The American snuff at MarsCigars is what I was looking at. Thanks.
