The Irish Toast Snuff is a scented, fine snuff which is fire- or smoke-cured. It has a medium brown colour. Although I prefer coarse snuffs, this one feels nice in my nose with its slightly scented aroma, as the original tobacco scent is still present.

Hello - just joined. Greetings from England,
I have been using snuff since 1964. I recently received a consignment of this snuff from Wilsons . The tub was labelled "Irish High Toast No. 22.
It appears that they are developing it all the time? On their postal service order form it is mentioned that thus snuff is one of their most popular.
Regards

Hi Roger! A warm welcome from my side.
I am pretty sure, there are differences in colour, moist and taste regarding the Toast Snuffs. The High Toast is very dry compared to the other variants which are just dry. -
Good morning Alex,
As you say,it is very dry. It does not take long to get used to it and is then quite enjoyable. I use it most of the time and also I use "Tom Buck," as an alternative. I have used various blends over the years but the two aforementioned are all I use now. -
Sounds good. I should include the No. 22 in my next order to try it.

Greetings from Danmark! No 22 was actually the first snuff I ever tried, and perhaps I should have begun with something milder. As a result of vulcanic, eruptic sneezing and streams of tears, while staggering around the house moaning and yelling - I completely gave up snuff for a long time, and only later returned to snuff instead of cigarettes. Now I really really enjoy No 22. Personally as an ex-smoker I prefer the non-mentholized snuffs, as I never liked mentholized cigarettes either. To me menthol must be for people who don't really like the taste/scent of tobacco? Another favorit of mine is French Carotte (nothing to do with carrots, but with the tradition of fermenting) and Queen's Extra Strong is good for a blast, when the craving is strong. But No 22 has gone from scaring me away from snuff to become one of my absolute favorites. Unfortunately snuff is not sold in Danmark, so I must order everything from Debbie of W and S :o)

Hi there,
Another newbie to the forums here, so hello everyone, its nice to see such enthusiasm for the beloved snuff! I have to say that F&Ts HT22 is my favourite snuff of all at the moment, even though I can concur with Viking in that it takes some getting used to if you've been snuffin the mositer, perfumed snuffs. I even find the No.21 a little too scented for my tastes...
I still think I'm yet to find that killer snuff so am taking a trip to Smith&Sons in London on thursday to purchase some cafe royale (amongst many others..!). I'm interested to see what sort of selection of less scented snuffs they may have, or indeed what other forum members can recommend.

Welcome Viking and snuffolly, You could also experiment with scenting your own dry unscented snuffs to suite your pleasures. I have used F&T's High Dry Toast with a vanilla bean to make some great homemade snuff myself.(it also helps to moisten the snuff a little to make it a bit easier to take while you are still getting use to it).

Is there much difference in the #21 and the #22? I have the #22 and also High Dry Toast by F&T and I can't tell much difference between those 2. But I absolutely love them both. I have a couple cans of the #21 in my cart at the moment at Mars for my next order to try anyways, just as soon as they get the Latakia Orange in stock I will be making that order (Mike assures me they will be getting it in soon).
Just curious. -
Hi Bigsnoot,
I have tins of the Frederick Tranter #21 and FT #22 (not wilsons). I found upon 'first snuff' that the 21 was slightly more perfumed than the solid tobacco flavours of the 22...and so stuck with my 22 - now you have cast doubt in my mind I shall have to go home and snuff both!! I'll report back!
Also, I can recommend Gold Label from FT is worth a try for the lover of the less scented snuffs and slightly easier on the snozzle. -
aha, it was the #20 I have and not the 21 so that would make sense! :)
