Now if the following sounds too weird just let me know and i'll take some pills and have a lie down. No matter what i want to snuff on any given day i always end up following me nose. I might wake up ...

Sometimes my nose wants Toque for weeks on end and then suddenly one day i wake up and one sniff of Toque and my nose seizes up, just won't play ball and i am not allowed any more Toque until my nose says i can.

I have an inkling this is not the same for everybody and am therefore curious as to how many people can snuff whatever they choose and how many have to follow their noses.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65244#Comment_65244 2009-07-02T15:57:01+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 tom502 http://snuffhouse.org/account/1123/

This is sorta like when you want something to eat, but everything you eat just doesn't satisfy, and you end up eating a bunch of stuff, still unsatisfied but too stuffed to care anymore.

Not quite right. The thing here is this whatever the nose chooses is really really good even if it is something i don't usually care for that much. You are partly right though if you really fancy a ...

The problem is i feel like my nose has a mind of its own and is behaving more like a mistress than a nose.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65254#Comment_65254 2009-07-02T17:12:07+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 hoss http://snuffhouse.org/account/1164/

I'll get 'hooked' on a flavor for a few days then switch. For me it's a bit like Tom said...just depends what I'm hungry for.

I usually abuse anything I get new, unless I don't like it from the start. Then I go back to 2 or 3 standby flavors.

It may just be that my nose is sensitive to the weather, temperature or humidity etc. Being the kinda guy i am i always look for a positive in any given situation and for me the good thing is that i regularly have to go through my collection which currently stands at about 150 different snuffs so nothing gets forgotten about and it is amazing how your likes and dislikes alter as your nose develops.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65357#Comment_65357 2009-07-03T03:38:43+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 Juxtaposer http://snuffhouse.org/account/382/

I'll start with Toast & Marmalade, then a little pinch of grapefruit with Original in between (I think it reminds me of Earl Grey tea). At the weekends I have champagne and St Clements as well.

Mid morning I have a bit of Chocolate and Espresso.

At lunch I have some Spanish Gem, Coke and some fruit.

Mid afternoon I have a little Toffee, floral and Original (afternoon tea).

I then do the French thing and have some absinthe before dinner. Then I’m back on the Spanish Gem, Natural, Peanut butter and vanilla followed by some fruit.

I then start on the booze. Whisky & honey and Bourbon, I also like an after eight (a British chocolate) so I sometimes have Peppermint and Chocolate.

I also have whatever I feel like in between.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65516#Comment_65516 2009-07-04T01:09:26+02:00 2009-07-04T01:10:08+02:00 snuffster http://snuffhouse.org/account/352/

Big Al, I'm with you all the way on this - my nose is my boss - in fact dictator - when it comes to what I use.

Also, I am only happy (or the boss is) using one type exclusively. This might come from the days when - long before internet stores - the only snuff I could get would be what the local tobacconist or corner shop stocked. For me that was SP. So I tend to find the type 'of the moment' and use it for weeks or months. Right now that is a blend of Toque original and a couple of other Toque flavours I made up; been using that now for about two months.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65519#Comment_65519 2009-07-04T02:55:58+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 Big Al http://snuffhouse.org/account/911/

For me the downside of the nose being the boss is that like PhilipS i am a creature of habit but with snuff i have to relinquish control and follow my nose, just reading his post i was engulfed in a ...

Rodericks way of doing things is also very agreeable, a daily menu is a brilliant idea. Sadly my nose would likely insist on starting with the booze and having breakfast for supper.

Rather than fight against it i just go with the flow but the bit that really fascinates me is that we are all to a greater or lesser extent at the mercy of our own mind whether we are trying to lose weight or give up cigarettes and i can accept that. With snuff i am convinced body and mind is at the mercy of my nose. Held to ransom by a small hairy appendage its just not fair.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65576#Comment_65576 2009-07-04T16:27:40+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 tom502 http://snuffhouse.org/account/1123/

Hello Stefan

Wilsons - Princes, Best Dark * Samuel Gawith - Original Kendal Brown, London Brown. A stock lasts about eight months and probably costs something in the region of £120 sterling. I was happy to make an acquaintance with the latter snuff as this is, as far as memory serves, identical to genuine Morlaix which I used to buy France, and which was packed in large brown paper parcels.

The tall F&T tins are admirable containers that do not, in my experience, require any special storage conditions thereafter.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65676#Comment_65676 2009-07-05T13:14:10+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 snuffster http://snuffhouse.org/account/352/

In bulk (1/2 lb or 1lb) I have Samuel Gawith KB Special, Irish D, Yellow Crest and Blue Crest, Wilson's Best Dark, Best SP, IHT No 22 and Princes. I recently (well, yesterday - a birthday present from my wife) got a 1/2 lb tub of Camphor & Mild too. I also have a hefty stash of about 1kg of Bernard's Brasil Feinst, bought in the 100g packs when they were still available when it looked like Bernard was going out of business.

I think the oldest tub is the KB Special and it's still as good and fresh now as when I first opened it.

Yes, those F&T tins/tubes are perfect for snuff storage. With those I never feel the need to put them in anything else airtight as they are good enough already.]]> http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/2488/?Focus=65725#Comment_65725 2009-07-06T00:20:20+02:00 2010-09-10T19:48:57+02:00 bigblue1 http://snuffhouse.org/account/531/

American scotches, on the other hand, seem to come in economy-sized tins to begin with--all the better for me, I truly enjoy both American sweets and scotches.
I see that Toque sells in up-to 400 gram baggies--that could be an option, especially for Roderick's whiskey & honey.
