    Just curious, for those of you in the us that order toque, how long does it normally take to get to you? I am very eagerly awaiting my order, but don't have the slightest clue when to expect it.

    I ordered on Sat. Nov. 17th (I think...it was the birthday special) and received on Mon. Nov.26th. That's to Chicago area.

    'crosses fingers', I hope it comes in on monday. That would be a great Christmas present. Our times would probably be similar, I live in Ohio.

    On average to California, it takes 6-8 days. My last order took 6 days. Did have some bad luck right after the last postal strike when everything was backed up but everything seems fine now.

    This is a great idea BrianC I wish I'd thought of it. I have just checked on the post office website for delivery times and I am shocked. These are their claimed delivery times.
    "Delivery options - International Services Delivery
    Standard services
    Airmail: The cost-effective way to send mail worldwide 3–5 working days From 48p
    Recorded services
    Airsure®: Fast, assured service to 30 destinations worldwide 2–4 working days Yes Airmail price + £4.20
    Economy services
    Surface Mail: Ideal for larger non-urgent packages 2–12 weeks No From 46p"
    I don't know of one single Toque customer who has received their order within their claimed times, out of the last 1/4 720 parcels were sent to the US and we believe Troutstroker has had the fastest delivery to date, 6 days. Tomorrow I will phone the post office and ask them why they have so dramatically failed in their claimed delivery times. I will let you know what they say.

    Usually when we have a replacement filling in for our regular mailman, I get a piece of mail for everyone on the street and none of my own! I have to go hand deliver the mail I get & hope one of the neighbors has mine.

    So I got in my toques just as I was leaving for Christmas yesterday, so have been able to sample all of them, and I will have to say that these are amazing snuffs. Each one of them will have a great place in my collection. I will have to say though that I am completely blown away by the Chocolate. Roderick, how in the heck were you able to get a snuff to smell like such a deep rich semi-sweet Chocolate? (I know it is a trade secret) I will definately be ordering this in bulk. This snuff shot to the very top of my favorites immediately upon first sniff. I'm not going to be reviewing these as it has been done before, but if you have not tried these, lose all the hesitation because it is a new company, these snuffs put much of my collection to shame.

    Now what you have been waiting for Roderick, Toque toffee. This in my book is very close to as good as the chocolate. I think that you nailed the burnt sugar smell very well. I don't know how you did it, but I am impressed. I don't quite think that I would be able to tell you that it was toffee if I didn't already know though. I think that what would make it more obvious is if you could take the base smell that you have right now and add a little bit more of a rich buttery scent, if that is possible. As it is right now though, I would still order it in bulk, but maybe a more generic name like toque sweet would fit it as is. What I would be happy to do is mail a couple of samples to a few of you here in the states, as he gave me a ton of it, and see what you think, if you would be cool with that Roderick. I have here in front of me three empty smash boxes. If anyone would like to whisper their info, I will send them pending Rodericks go-ahead, but like I said, I only have three.

    I just got my order today (thanks for the extra goodies Roderick!) and I am loving them especially the menthol one.

    The bullets make my long commute to work much easier as I can just sniff it out of it no problem! I'm glad I ordered these before buying one of the cheaply made plastic bullets from a local shop since these seem to be a much better quality, not to mention came with some great snuff!

    I think I'm going to try mixing the chocolate and menthol together for some chocolate mint. Speaking of chocolate, I'm giving a female friend the chocolate and espresso ones to see what she thinks but I predict she will love them (she loves chocolate in general).

    When I run out I will most definitely be placing another order, which will be sooner rather then later :-P.

    I have discovered that I am reaching for my toque snuffs much more than any of my others. They are just perfect. The only one that I don't go for as much is the espresso. I like coffee, but smelling it in my nose just isn't quite my thing. I definately can't say a thing bad about the flavor of it though. If you love the smell of espresso this is perfectly made. The only one that I use the bullet for is the menthol for I like large pinches, but it is great for driving. I can't get enough of the chocolate!! I have every intention of ordering 100g as soon as it runs low. I think I found my new all day favorite. Why oh why did I get so many wilsons before trying toque? Not to mention dutch windmill and bespoke also put my wilsons collection to shame...
