			<![CDATA[I was wondering that as well Mike. I'm was thinking that the production and supply of it sounds a little like what Poschl does to some of their blends.<br />I put a call in to the Rep. and left a voice mail for him. He called me back last time right away. I'll post more after I talk to him.]]>

			<![CDATA[Just a little reading that came off of Swisher's Annual Report to Stockholders. I know a few of us have talked & read about sales reports before, but I thought I would throw it in while we are on the subject of Swisher for some of the newer members who haven't. <br /><br />Swisher Dry snuff is made from Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia<br />dark fired tobacco that has been aged for at least three years and then<br />fermented for approximately thirty days. After fermentation is completed,<br />the tobacco is dried and cut into a fine tobacco flour that is flavored<br />prior to packaging. Retail sales of dry snuff in 1996 were an estimated $76<br />million (4.7 million pounds). The Company sells dry snuff under numerous<br />brands including Tops, Navy, Railroad Mills, Superior, Buttercup, Square,<br />Society and Honey Bee. Although the unit market for dry snuff has declined<br />at a compound annual rate of approximately 6.1% over the past 10 years, the<br />Company has maintained a relatively constant market share and has generated<br />substantial cash flow from the sale of its dry snuff products.The dry snuff category,<br />with its substantial profit margins and low marketing costs, helps generate strong <br />cash flow for Swisher.  <br /><br />(low marketing costs) this probably is why its hard to find any info or distributers of the less known Swisher products. They don't push their products.]]>

			<![CDATA[Good insight. What I don't understand is how they are so calm about the dry snuff market evaporating by almost half in the past ten years. They just charge twice as much as ten years ago, if people will pay it, why worry? Probably their customers are just dying off - old dippers in the south mainly I'd venture to say.  Are they really content to watch this market collapse in the next ten years?  If I was an executive at Swisher, I'd be looking for ways keep that cash cow alive! <br /><br />And speaking of profit margins, I a can only imagine the spectacular spreadsheets for a snuff maker producing on that scale. I doubt those pocket cans cost them more than a quarter to produce.]]>

			<![CDATA[They're probably judging it against all their other offerings, as tobacco is in general decline now. losing 50% of a market isn't that big a deal considering the only real money they've spent is the developing of plastic containers. In a climate that is altogether unfriendly to tobacco products, this may be their only source of revenue that isn't drawing heat, and it could be wiser to keep it that way than to draw attention to it. The strong cash flow they're talking about could be the $2 they pocket on every tin they sell, not a growing market.]]>

			<![CDATA[Well since they are the largest manufacturer & marketer of cigars in the world, they could probably see a huge drop in sales and still have a lot of profit to show. I think anything else that makes them money is just a bonus. They could probably stop selling smokeless tobacco products all together and still show profit. <br /><br />As far as the Swisher/Helme High Toast, I think anyone close enough should take a trip to the factory or to the tobacco shops in West Virginia to find it.<br /><br />4000 Water Street<br />Wheeling, WV 26003<br />Phone: 304/232-4000]]>

			<![CDATA[It seems we have hit a dead-end on this issue Gentlemen. The only thing we can do, as suggested by Troutstroker, is to keep our eyes open at our favorite local tobacconist to see what they carry differently around the Country. If anyone runs-up on one of these blends, let us know if you are willing to work a trade.<br /><br />I've been slacking and have not yet done my part to check-up on the two outlets the Rep spoke of....but I will. (Put the stones down!)  :-)<br /><br />Mo]]>

			<![CDATA[I went by one of the outlets over the weekend. No new snuffs were available, but I must say that I was impressed with the quantity and selection of our well known favorites. Every American snuff that we are all aware of (and available at Mars)thus far is available and not only in the 1.15oz tins but the 4.6oz tins as well.(under 10 bucks for the large tins)<br />Anyone want a quadruple dose of any of these?]]>

			<![CDATA[I found some railroad scotch recently at a gas station called tobacco town. So far the ones in my area are the W.E. Garretts -Sweet and Scotch, Garrett Rappee, Bruton, Red Seal and now Railroad Mills Scotch.<br /><br />I know that RR is someone's favorite, but I can't remember who. That is a strange snuff, it smells and tastes drastically different to me every time I take it. Sometimes it smells like coal tar, or diesel (in a satisfyingly manly way) other times the smoky BBQ, and sometimes even slightly peppery. Good snuff though, I bought two tins and I keep one near the throne in case I'm ever in need :)]]>

No High Toast though. I hope this is helpful!]]>

			<![CDATA[Yeah thats the site I look at from time to time to see if there are any new snuffs available. Its what put DeVoe & Maccoboy into my head when I mentioned it to Mo. I saw the DeVoe on there about 6 months ago & have since been searching through the internet trying to find some. I knew of the old Eagle Mills but did not know they were still producing the DeVoe. I have had the Maccoboy a few years back, a nice rose snuff. I know omegapd has an old bottle of it as well. I would sure like to try the DeVoe but don't want a whole pallet from the wholesaler. They also have both the plain & the sweet Tops. <br /><br />@ Jeff, I did a review of the <a href="http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/383/helmeswisher-strawberry-sweet-snuff/#Item_1" >Strawberry </a> If you click the link you can read my opinion on it & you will see I took the pic of the strawberry can from sunnywholesale.]]>
