I love Taxi Blue too! It's not just a flavor but an aroma that it sports. Being course, it's easy to snuff, but the tobacco is so soft. When my nose begins to run it runs dark. My wife once asked me if I had a nosebleed. The blow is nice and clean and the aroma remains and is also enjoyed in the lungs. As far as nicotine goes I have decided that there is no need to turn to taxi Red for more. The higher nic of Taxi Red seem to interfere with the flavor factors so it's Taxi Blue for me. This is my morning regular and because I leave it at home I will go strait to it when I get there. I can't wait to try the Taxi Rock. If it's base is similar to Taxi Blue then it's sure to be a winner!

Oh, I'm Sorry. I thought someone wanted a Taxi!

Is That Taxi Yellow?

I've just taken a pinch of Taxi blue to confirm to myself what I was going to write: It smells of animal dung.

I really can't get on with stuff!

@sprangalang.

No, the blue is just like the red but a little less potent in nicotine content; no menthol.

I love both the Taxi Red and the Taxi Blue. The only thing I don't like is how fast I go through it, haha.

This stuff is truly horrible!!!

Aaah! I didn't realise this was dip. Ive just packed a lip and its in there as I type. Much better. Is that how you use it?

axi is excellent. to dry just walk around with it in your pocket all day. still in container. it will lose most of the excss moisture; rather quick. i think it is made like this due to the heat and climate of south africa.

So are you guys all using taxi as dip?

snuff for me. dont trash it send it this way!

I was in the Taxi Red hating camp but today I opened the tin I have had sitting in my drawer for maybe six months and was looking at a completely different snuff. It is light brown, has almost no moisture and I think its volume has halved since I last looked at it. Now its pretty nice, it is so dry you can sort of crush it a little in your fingers whilst sprinkling on the wrist. Quite tasty now, a simple, strong tobacco smell and I can succesfully get it in my nose rather than all over the desk/floor. I may actually finish this now!

bryan,

it gets better if used as dip like the way it was probably made for.

TAXI is a "common" snuff in SA, and very cheap. I never even thought of buying it until I came to this forum and realised that it's available overseas. Now I use it regularly. I blend Taxi Blue with Taxi Rock Spearmint and it's nice. I also blend Taxi Blue with Magnet Peach and that is a different story. Once I start on it, I can't stop. I don't "pinch" it, I take LARGE amounts and shove it up my nose. Gentlemen, do yourself a favour and try it!! I do not like Taxi Red though. To me, it does not have the fruity flavour I taste in the Blue. And , of course, I buy lots of this very cheap snuff to get hold of the containers. The plastic box is strongly made and seals pretty well. As I never snuff in public and do not have any snuffing companions, the looks don't bother me. I often discard the older snuff when I open new containers which I need as snuff boxes.

I just got some taxi rock and tried it in the nose and lip. I like the nose better. It is vary deferent. Does anybody know if this is an African style of tobacco. Are there other African tobaccos?
By the way never use cope in the nose. It will rip you a new one.
