Where can snuff bullets or a similar device be purchased online? My eBay and Google searching have been unsatisfactory, and Mars Cigars (my usual snuff supplier) does not carry them.
Hello Snuffers, I am new to this site and would like to ask what to do? I ask because I am the owner of toquetobacco.com, a new English nasal snuff company, that sells its snuff in very large bullets for less than you can buy the individual bullets. Some of our American customers have told us they have bought empty bullets for as much as $10.00 yet we sell our full snuff bullets for £3.99 and our refills for £1.99 with world post free. What I want to know is who to talk to and how I can get my products listed on this site?
Welcome Roderick! Good to see another producer / seller around. Do I understand it right, that you sell your snuff in bullets and refills only? If so, it's an interesting concept.
What I want to know is who to talk to and how I can get my products listed on this site? Well, as I am the initiator of this community, I guess I am the one to talk to. Where would you like get listed?
Regards, Alex
P.S.: One post with the same content is sufficient. I am reading every single one so far, so you don't need to fear we are missing it. :-)
Thanks Alex, I have also emailed you but as you are so efficient you probably already know that (My mother always said flattery works but I’m not so sure). Could you advise what/where we should be listed. You could look at our website www.toquetobacco.com We launched in Scotland in November 2006 and were pleasantly surprised by the response - Scotland not being renowned for snuffing. We have since introduced Toque Tobacco and Snus Ice (a peppermint snuff) to Wales and are currently gearing up for England. Having said that ‘Smokers Paradise’ in London had a number of customers asking for Toque and they have become one of our top outlets, prior to our official launch in England on the 01/07/07. Our unusual bullet has been a great success with many new and old snuffers commenting positively on the ease and cleanliness of the dispenser. The website has attracted customers from all over the world 60% uk 35% USA some from Germany, Sweden, France, Switzerland, Canada, Spain and even Malaysia. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate in contacting me.
Hi Alex, That would be great. I was going to write in Deutsch but then my school boy German spelling started to let me down. See what I mean! Danke shon und guten abend. Roderick
Not only is your English better than my German, your Engish is better than my English and I'm English! I have added a link from my site to yours. Thanks for your help.
I just placed an order at your website Roderick, and I look forward to receiving it. I think it's great the way you sell your snuff, I have been wanting to get a couple of bullets for a while now, and this is the perfect way to obtain them: full of snuff and with free shipping to boot! I will let you all know what I think when they arrive!
Try null. The site is not the best to navigate. But she carries bullets and a very generous selection of snuff. Call her if you are unable to locate her bullets. She is very accomodating.
Thanks for your order Justin, it has already been posted. Can you let me know when they arrive, as you are our first in Hawaii. Normal post to the States takes approximately 5 days. As you only ordered lots of 'Snus Ice' I have included a free refill of Toque for you to try with our compliments. I hope you like it. Roderick
Roderick, I too have just placed an order from your online shop and am looking forward to receiving it. I do have a question concerning the amount in grams that each bullet/refill contains,as I could not find that listed on your site. However, even without this info I am looking forward to receiving and trying your product and wish you luck in the future and great success.
I appreciate your thoughtfulness including the free sample Roderick. The reason I just went for the Snus Ice was that I generally prefer the flavored snuffs over the unflavored ones, but I am certainly not one to put my nose up (haha) at trying anything snuff related! I will let you all know what I think when the package arrives. I'll let you know how long it takes for the package to arrive; generally shipping times to Hawaii are extended by at least a couple of days, but I'm used to that. To echo Mo, I too wish you success in your endeavour!
The bullets arrived already two days ago. Really fast shipping, that's definitely a plus! After fiddling around a little I understood the mechanism and was ready to pinch. I have never used or even hold a snuff bullet in my hands, so it took some seconds. I simply ignored the instruction saying 'dispense to back of hand' as I think snuff bullets have the advantage that you can snuff directly out of them, right?
The plain tobacco it quite strong in its taste and...plain. It has a slightly toasted odour which feels quite well in the nose. I would call the grain medium and the moist dry to medium-dry. The snus peppermint snuff clearly tastes like peppermint which gives a nice fresh feeling. The expression snus here is kind of funny, I feel. Usually the term snuff is wrongly used in the US for snus, now the term snus is used for snuff.
Overall, I like the snuffs and the use of such a bullet is a nice way. My only remark would be, that the portions coming out are a little too small for me. Thanks Roderick for letting me try!
Great comments from a master snuffer. We err on the side of caution when we say 'dispense to back of hand'. There are so many new snuffers coming to snuff as an alternative to smoking and in tests we found they needed to start with smaller pinches. Most quickly graduate to straight from the bullet. Sorry Alex I should have included our instruction leaflet which we send to beginners. My fault, I presumed you would have seen a snuff bullet before. Glad you liked them. Regards Roderick
There are so many new snuffers coming to snuff as an alternative to smoking and in tests we found they needed to start with smaller pinches. You are absolutely right. I can very well imagine a smoker taking a deep breath...ouch.
...our instruction leaflet which we send to beginners... Well, the bullets are designed that nice, that I could find it out by myself. Another plus point for your product.
The worst thing I heard was a new snuffer sucked the snuff from the bullet straight into his mouth. That must have been horrendous. That’s why I am now sending out instruction leaflets with our bullets.
Would it be possible to use some of your descriptions mentioned above for the toque & snus bullets on my site as i don’t have a detailed description yet ?
good to see you around. Sure you may. I would be happy to see a note like Snuffhouse.org. If that is too much you might just add Alexander Schardt or AS.
Earlier today I received a package from Toque Tobacco. I had ordered one each of the Plain Snuff and the Peppermint Snuff and wish to concur with Alex and Justin on their review of the product. The Peppermint Snuff IS quite refreshing and both are enjoyable to use in their packaged form. Each have, in my humble opinion, a bit more kick to them than any snuff I have used before. Well Done Roderick. I wish to thank you for your Companies interest in assuring that the product was delivered in a timely manner and your willingness to assure my satisfaction. I also wish to say that am looking forward to trying any new products you are developing and again wish you great success in the future.
Thanks Mo, I am really pleased you liked them and am also delighted by your comments. I am a little old school and believe that the customer is always right. Service must always be to the highest standard.
