    Whoever said...

    ... that the nic hit from snuff was negligible:

    I should not have paid attention.

    I had no interest in snuff until Hell Box 2.0 got here and I actually tried some. Sure, the history and scents and experience are all fascinating, but it wasn't quite enough to convince me to fill my nose up with ground tobacco and blow what looks like diarrhea onto a handkerchief. At least not on a many-times-daily basis.

    I could write about 50 pages on tobacco, nicotine, and other tobacco alkaloids and how I wound up in my current position (back to smoking part time while snusing full time), but suffice it to say I wasn't getting quite what I was looking for even from the starkiest starks (and extra starks) around.

    Snuff, as a "booster" on top of snus, delivers precisely what I was looking for. I just ordered a ton. Yay.

      So far, so good. I'm absconding with a little snuff out of the box (but I added 18 tins of snus so I don't think anyone will kill me for it).

      The steady stream of nicotine that snus provides just doesn't cut it alone for me. I need some peaks and valleys to function properly, especially when I'm working, and snuff delivers! Hooray!

      I do have to say I'm starting to feel a little like TBob. I've got an e-cig in my left hand, snus in my mouth, and snuff in my nose. I better check to make sure I haven't sprouted a moustache.

            I enjoy smoking a pipe but I just don't have time for it these days. Busy, busy, busy.

              All kinds of stuff, but for now, I stuck with inexpensive, very small tins only. I'll see if I can dig up a list... as usual, I made multiple orders from multiple vendors :P

                Just curious because, Im also trying to find a snuff with that perfect amount of nicotine to provide a lift but not go overboard.

                    QWS Sandalwood is doing the trick beautifully for me. The Toques I tried out of the Hell Box 2.0 (Toast & Marmalade, Bourbon) didn't seem as stout nicotine-wise.

                      +1, I can certainly appreciate that and the @ work part. I sure do wish I wouldn't have made that "agreement" with a certain someone as per my other thread. :lol: I sure could use some snuff on hand during this special time of the month to take a quick "toot" on when things get heated. Maybe I can get a prescription from my doc for this very reason :idea:

                      PS: Nice list of snuff there. You got me beat in my 1st "tryout" orders thus far, I'm a bit jealous. ops:

                              It's kind of incense-y. I used to wear Sandalwood oil as a cologne when I was going through a hippie phase as a teenager, haha.
