    Hate menthol but would like to try a minty snuff !

    The only one I've attempted is Robby's Top Mint but even the small amount of menthol in there was enough to put me off.

    A Strong one is McChrystals Supermint.

    What about some of the Samuel Gawith varieties like After Glow, Wild Duck, Mastiff. The After Glow is a very nice peppermint snuff. And like dajawu said, the Toque Peppermint is nice as well.

    Thanks for the suggestions folks. I should have realised that Toque Peppermint was suitable as Roderick mentioned on here at one point that he doesn't like menthol either. I'll add it to the order I'll be putting in in when the new flavours come out.

    Prime Minister is also spearmint, or wintergreen. Pure peppermint extract is available in the baking sections of most supermarkets. A little goes a long way. I've made some very nice peppermint snuffs with it. Just be sure to mix it in very thoroughly, and screen it a few times before sniffing.

    A bit late to the party but Wilson's Peppermint doesn't have any menthol and it is quite strong and clean.

    As Snuffbox has bumped this thread up. Can I also recommend Samuel Gawith After Glow and Dutch Windmills Choco-Mint.

    Wilsons pepermint is pretty strong stuff, fairly fine and quite penetrating

    I would add that mint IS a menthol. In the same category I would also put camphor, eucalyptus, Chinese menthol crystals, and whatever just plain menthol (no details). These are all very different from one another. Their combined use has unlimited variables.( i.e Poschl snuff ) I would recommend for the connoisseur to familiarize himself with all. There may be a favorite lurking within. Back on subject my favorite mints are Taxi Rock, Toque peppermint, and Crumbs of Comfort. Furthermore I would like to comment that mint mixes extremely well with other scents. I now have a Spearmint, Thyme, and Bergamot mix that is thoroughly enjoyable.

    Thanks for all the recommendations folks !

    Speaking of eucalyptus, I just arranged a snuff swap with Walrus1985 and got some of his Frederick Tranter Country Doctor which is flavoured with aniseed and eucalyptus.

    Did you ever have one of those "love at first pinch" moments ? I can't keep this stuff out of my nose and the very generous bag he sent me isn't going to last much longer ! It's mid brown, medium fine grind and quite moist. The aniseed is foremost with just a hint of eucalyptus for a pleasant nose chill.

    I'm guessing that Wilsons Aniseed and Eucalyptus will be similar so I'm going to order some of that soon to check it out.

    Farley don't forget to try the Aniseed Extra. Snuff Head recommended it to me and I like it because it has a strong anise flavor but also eucalyptus which you seem to enjoy also. The eucalyptus definitely plays 2nd fiddle to the anise on this one. Only problem for you may be the menthol as there is a healthy shot of menthol here. It will be interesting knowing which you prefer betwen A&E and Aniseed Extra. I haven't tried A&E and it's confusingly listed under both S.M. and Flavored snuffs on Wilson's website, so I don't know whether it has menthol as well. Anyone?

    The extra in Extra is the menthol. The A&E has only eucalyptus.

    How about Molens Choco-Mint snuff? Haven't tried it myself, but I'm intrigued.

    Would go well with Metromint's Chocolate Mint Water.

    Molen's Chocomint's great, very pleasant. I also like the Metromint waters, though I don't get them often. I like the chocolate mint, and pure peppermint the best.

    the chocomint one smells fantastic and id also say toque peppermint.

    i think my head is going to explode everytime i use it.

    Yes the Molens Choto-Mint is great.

    I'm not in love with menthol snuffs though I do like the TOQUE Menthol. TOQUE Peppermint is something else all together. I can easily sit and sniff it all night long. Reminds me of WILSON'S XXX Mints. I also mix it in with other snuffs. I do have Wilson,s Prime Minister but that is a bit to "minty" for my taste to use as a all day snuff. Where does Crumbs of Comfort come in; menthol or mint or peppermint?

    Snuffbox: I've got a three-year-old tin of Aniseed Extra sitting in my garage practically untouched. You were right - I didn't like the menthol :o)

    I do like aniseed though. Toque Absinthe rocks !

    Farley, maybe you don't like 3 year old tins of Wilsons ;)

    That makes more for me, matey!

    If you want a good Aniseed without strong menthol, try Wilsons aniseed Eucalyptus. The eucalyptus blends in well with this one without overpowering and taking over.
