hi everybody , i would like to know that how do you judge the snuff whether it's a good quality snuff or bad quality. what are the mani points to judge the good quality snuff and a bad quality snuff ?

hello snuffbox , thanks for the immediate response. in nasal snuff which grind is consider to be a good grind ? how much moisture content should be ? flavor is understandable but how can you judge the nicotine ? if the nicotine is strong what do you feel in nose ? what about the tobacco leaf quality ? what kind of tobacco snuff manufacturer used to make good quality nasal snuff ?

it's like any other type of tobacco in that experience will have to be your guide. Just like wine the mark of a good snuff is that you like it the mark of a great snuff is that you love it, and the mark of a bad snuff is that you don't like it. The trick is to learn what makes you like a snuff and then you can pick from peoples discriptions which ones sound the most exciting to you. Over time you will get better at this everyone does.
Two prime examples of what I'am talking about in my opinion would be Packards club and Royal George to many these are great snuffs to just as many these are terrible snuffs. I love G and H snuffs I think they are great I always have a few Troutstroker thinks they are the worse snuffs ever made both me and Trout are absoultely spot on about the qualities of the snuffs. The thing is we both know why we love or hate the snuffs we love or hate and again so will you with time!

so far as I can tell they are all good. The scotch snuff is a bit dry, but I have had good experience with Toque, Dholakia, Poschl, Wilson's of Sharrow.... they are all good. And the WE Garrett scotch snuff is dry as a dessert, but its still good in its own way....

I wouldn't ever say a snuff is good or bad, just whether I like or dislike. I've snuffed for quite a long while now and I've never come across a snuff that I would say was bad in the sense that it was badly manufactured, but lots that don't suit my personal taste. I think Taxi snuff is the most repulsive snuff I've ever tried but a lot of people here like it so its all down to taste. In terms of how I judge a snuff, its about the nicotine level - which I like to be high as I am an ex-smoker - flavour and a nice even grind. At the moment I use Toque and Dholakia, which I think are the snuffs of the moment.

i have tried some snuff like toque , dholakia , peckard , mc crystle and many others but i find all tobacco in those snuff are different. i put all the snuff in my lower lips and tasted it. i find the all different kind of tobacco than i put in the nose. have you ever tasted like that ? i think i will quite smoking because to sniff a nasal snuff is a great experience. i would like know more about the quility products.

paggie is quite right. Tasting a new snuff is SOP in evaluating it properly. It's the same principle as deliberately smelling a new wine or tea before you actually taste it; just in reverse.

I've just been extremely busy at work for the last couple of months. And I've been collaborating on a little research project aimed at reproducing some of the lost classic snuffs like Brazile and the original Masulipatam.

we have free sample request available on our site.

I don't see it Namrata. Where on your site should I look?

I sent an email a few weeks ago which was also not answered.

That will be a good trick without our mailing addresses!
