I got mine today! Thank you very much Merdock :D It was absolutely worth the wait. I quickly took a tiny pinch to each nostril and it made my upper lip start to numb a little! As for the aroma, this snuff distinctly reminds me of one thing and one thing only: Salvia Divinorum. I would almost swear there is some mixed in with the tobacco. If this is the case, it doesn't bother me one bit. It would actually be a nice touch. Well, aside from it being illegal in most places now. That's it. Tobacco and Salvia Divinorum (or some other sage-type plant). I'm not detecting the chocolate that a few here have described. Anyway, I'm really enjoying it. I'll be vaccum sealing half of it just for posterity.
-
I came on this thread a little late.
Is it too late to aquire some?
Thanx.
nightcap.... -
oh my, me too. this stuff is legendary! i think i also arrived just a tad too late.
-
Maybe not. Send a whisper to Merdock69. He's been busy lately so he might not give the quickest reply. But, I know he had a fair amount on hand. And, yes, the snuff IS legendary. With just the smallest amount I could feel the nicotine move through my body like a tingling tidalwave. I couldn't help but sit back, enjoy it, and smile.

Satyr, try it in the morning on an empty stomach while still in bed, you'll feel about as good as a freshly de-wormed horse. One of my old high school indian friends and surrounding families grow a lot of salvia divinorum on the reservation. He chews quid's as well as smoking it. -
-
Salvia is an interesting plant, and salvanorin-A is an interesting chemical.
Have you partaken TS? -
Interesting. I have a small share of Salvia at home, never thought to incorporate it with snuff...
-
Salvia is defninatly a very interesting plant. I think the best way to discribe the effect of it would be out of body extradimensinal space. I know that sounds strange but so is salvia. Though the extra kick everyone is discribing on the spanish jewel sounds to me very familar. When I was younger I used to buy cigars made by the amish and they seemed to have similar type of strength and power to them. Maybe it's a similar tobacco?

Or, maybe it's the complete lack of any "bullshit" and just pure, quality tobacco the way God intended. ;) -

That sure is a trip back in time when I go visit my dad in Missouri and see all the Amish there. Seeing horse drawn carriages going down the side of the highway and they are all dressed the same. Working the fields without tractors. -

My father drives a semi. Last year he called me while taking some back roads through Michigan. He was laughing because he had just made it around an amish guy in a horse drawn carriage pulling a trailer with a fishing boat...with an outboard motor on it?! Are they allowed to have motors? Wish I had a picture. -
Wow, lol, that is too funny onefortheroad.

There are some amish groups who haven't stuck entirely to their roots and have adapted some modern technology into their lives. I think as long as its not something needed to get by and live an easier life where you might be corrupted, its considered acceptable.
I wonder if they backed the carriage down the boat ramp or they just carried the boat to the water? -
-
rofl, I am just imagining right now going to some boat ramps and seeing a carriage backing a boat in. Can you put horses in reverse? lol
-
Yes you can put a horse in reverse it's the carriage that's dificult. Though this amish thing reminds me there used to be an arcade in the town I live in. When the farmers market came into town all the amish men would stop in there to play the racing games.
-
Whoo hoo! Got my Spanish Jewel. Is there any other snuff that compares scent wise?
The lingering scent is great. The only problem I have is that in order to get a long lasting scent I have to snuff enough to make my head spin (which isn't much.) But, in small doses this stuff is great. And the scent does last awhile.
FYI, wash your hands before you take a pee. -
yay! got mine too, this is strong snuff! many thanks to merdock69, macalpe,and Mr. Vinyets Salabert for getting this together.very impressed and excited!
thanks again! -

WOW! A superbly crafted snuff. Beautiful tan color. Nice fine grind. Scents reminiscent of Cuban tobacco. And I'm higher than a kite. Sitting is definitely recommended. The efforts to make this Magic available to this community are greatly appreciated. -

I haven't heard anything about another buy, but would definitely be interested in getting another ounce of this fantastic stuff. -

Anyone of you could initiate a buy!!! Just have a talk with Pedro (macalpe) then spread the word on the forum. Mr. Salabert only sells by the Kilo and will run you about $240. -
-
If you all decide to do this then perhaps you could ask for the moist version. I already have the dry version and would certainly spring for another ounce of its wetter cousin.
-
i'll be in for some more. i'm just onto my second little bag now and i love it.
-
I'm with TheLong on wanting to try the wetter version. I'd chip in a fair amount to do this.
-
I'll try to set up another group buy. Please PM so I can gauge response...

Count me in for another ounce but I would really love to get two ounces. -
Hi Y'all,
I'm new to this board. I'm a snuffer of aprox 3 years. My wife made me quit smoking. I was rolling my own and enjoying it way too much. I just can't give up tobacco. I LOVE all tobacco products. I can chew, smoke cigars, pipes, whatever ya got. Bought and old jar (real glass) of Levi at my local West Los Angeles Thrifty/Rite Aid - there were like three left and they were covered in dust. When I bought it the look on the 17-year old clerks face was price-less. I must have been the only snuff customer in that store's history. Anyway it rocked, even as old as it was I had my nicotine fix back and my tobacco enjoyment continues. That was 2 years ago and my jar of Levi is only about half gone!
I'm in portland oregon now and the local shops here don't carry much in variety and my wife doesn't know I snuff so ordering stuff online is tricy BUT I just gotta have some Span Jewl. I've heard so much about this stuff and I need complete my life with it. I'm good for as much you'll let my buy once we know how much for how much.
Thanks for listening,
My current faves are McCrystals, Poschl's GP and Gawith Cola. Levi is still a fave also but variety is the spice.... -

Hello BIG D, you know there is a shop fairly close to you in Yakima Washington. The store is Lil' Brown Smoke Shack. Not sure what type of walk in store they have but their policy for online orders are: We ship packages out in discreet brown boxes. They carry all sorts of tobacco products including snuff. -

Welcome BIG D, I think you will really enjoy the jewel, it is my personal favorite. Like you, I am up to buying as much as I can get my hands on, I am on my last smash boxs of the first ounce I got and have been using it very sparingly.
