    The guide looks great! Excellent job.

    The only thing I'd say is that perhaps the beginner snuff list should include a Poschl or two (like Gletscherprise maybe) since they're so popular and so many people start with them ... even though they're not my favorites anymore. But 'tis a minor quibble. :)

    Thank you guys for the feedback.

    Jeff, I think taking a Pöschl in the beginning might be misleading. Once upon a time, I started with the Gletscherprise myself. Today, I wouldn't touch it any more. Only for comparison to other snuffs. The good thing of the Pöschls is, that you can't get them in your throat, unless you eat them. The texture and scent is nothing special nor very pleasant for a beginner. People use it so much because Pöschl is doing a great marketing job, I guess. The snuff is okay, but there are far better ones out there. To sum up: In private, I would not recommend a Pöschl to a beginner, so I don't want to do it here. Being a serious snuffer, you have to try them, of course.

    I can't argue with that! :)

    Columbia Oil? Good question. I have read somewhere that it serves as a flavour carrier more than a flavour itself. It also adds a certain moisture, I guess.

    Why, it's the oil of the Columbia plant, of course. Found along the Norfolk and Western tracks in Columbus, Ohio. Used to smoke it when we wuz kids.
