    The Toque Curse

    Ok.. Ok.. maybe not but I am old enough to know better. Picked up a tin of Pöschl Gletscher Prise and 1 of Pöschl Packards Club a couple weeks back at the Cigar store... nice. Then I place an order with Tom at NicotineRush for a few 10g tins of Togue. Now I am in trouble, ordered my fix directly from the dealer Roderick at www.Togue.com. A few months from now I'll be in rehab penniless with a sore nose. I bought some Raspberry Menthol on my first order from Tom and now I am sneaking pinches at the office.

    On order from www.Togue.com
    Blueberry 10g Tin
    SP Extra 10g Tin
    Original 25g Tin
    Pomegranate 10g Tin
    Quit 10g Tin
    Raspberry 10g Tin
    Raspberry Menthol 25g Tin
    Coke 10g Tin

        Roderick is the shit. I ordered some Toque for a good friend's father, entered a completely incomprehensible mailing address for a PO box in the middle of Mongolia, and sent him an email asking if it would get delivered ok. He wrote back in like 2 minutes, and simply said "I'll take care of it". Roderick, if you are reading this, you have a VERY happy customer 2 hours east of Darkhan, Mongolia. I'm sending him some more very soon, maybe tonight. He used your snuff to successfully quit smoking, and he's reportedly eternally grateful to me. Thanks Roderick, great product bud!

        Edit: this Mongolian I speak of introduced me to snuff... the hard way. Whatever he can get his hands on locally is not good. But he's a Toque man now, it's all good.

          I went to high school in Darkhan, Mongolia. That place is full of cheeze.
          Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





          I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

              Probably more like from-under-cheese 8)

              Ok, that was bad, but I'm sure there's others who were thinking the same thing :P

                I had three big orders before I regained control. I would recommend trying to make your orders as diverse as possible to help shorten the initial frenzy. Then you will have a whole bunch to have a little taste of every once and a while but you will probably settle down to just a few that you want to use most all of the time. Right now I use a a couple of medicated Poschls, dholakia/toque chocolate and FUBAR grunt most of the time. Then I spice it up with all of the others maybe 1 in 10 times.

                  Just a few????

                  I use over 50 in a rotation. Sometimes only once every other month before I get to have one again. A few get kicked in front, Whiskey & Honey is one. So yeah, have a few I use a bit more.

                  But I have never settled on a few, not why I love snuff.

                    When I get a hankerin' for some snuff I almost always have something specific in mind and even though I like most of the scents that I have I almost always reach for the same set. Mostly I am reaching for the Grunt but if I want something sweet I go for a chocolate and if I want something medicated I am reaching for the president or packards club. I usually feel like I am compromising a bit when I go outside of those unless I have an itch for a specific flavor. Now all of that changes when I get a new order in and go on a rampage but after a week or so I go back to my fav's. I think most of my snuff will last for years while those go to snuffs probably 6 months max.

                      Same as RRK- Get in an order and go on a binge, then mostly Grunt, Hoppensnuff, SS, then get on an SP kick. I have a scary collection now, and I filled the PACT locker with Grunt, Hoppensnuff, SS, Tom Buck, and Whiskey and Honey. I have about a pound of really good home made snuffs.

                      Snuff can accomadate all my moods now, so many kinds!

                        Those labels on snuff containers that say "This product is addictive" aren't kidding. But not in the way they mean.

                        Also, I don't think I've ever dealt with any business anywhere that is as dedicated to maintaining the quality of their product, ongoing innovation, and incredible customer service as Toque. I use other snuffs as well, but whenever I take a pinch of Toque, I feel like I'm doing something to make the world a better place. It's Health Tobacco!

                          I can't believe they sell a Cheese & Bacon snuff. That is hilarious... :lol:

                            I am on a binge... Seriously... I feel like I've been rode hard and put up wet...
                            These came in today: All from Togue by the way.
                            Blueberry 10g Tin
                            SP Extra 10g Tin
                            Original 25g Tin
                            Pomegranate 10g Tin
                            Quit 10g Tin
                            Raspberry 10g Tin
                            Raspberry Menthol 25g Tin
                            Coke 10g Tin
                            Berwick Brown (Free Sample)

                            I have opened every tin and for the last three hours sat in my home office with the doors closed and snuffed my a$$ off. I look like a rabid dog with snot running out of my nose. I still have another order coming from NicotineRush.

                            "Well Ollie this is another fine mess we've gotten into".

                              There is nothing "hilarious" about Cheese and Bacon. It is truly a masterpiece of the art of snuff making. A sign of the true genius of Roderick. Who else could have made this snuff? Who else would have? I believe Roderick is the DaVinci of the snuff world. That or a sick, twisted, nutjob with access to tobacco. :lol:

                              Seriously C&B started as a joke or novelty snuff. Unfortunately for Roderick he made it too well and people liked it. I have read that he thinks all of us who like it are a bit off. He hates it.
