    I love that QWS Irish Coffee! Think I have 4 bullets and 4 cans of it waiting to be used now :wink: It's my fave of the QWS offerings. TB has raved about the Coffee Bites a couple of times, so I just had to eventually get a can of it...all the ones he's mentioned so far that he thought I'd like, I have.

    Yes, was a little on the fruity side on this order, but I do keep gravitating towards them...especially raspberry and orange flavors

      I'm curious to try the bourbon. I'm waiting on Roderick to release the new snuffs that are in the wings, and I'm going to place a decent order.
      It's a great one lx...nice smoky bourbon....not some cheap JD, JB, or Evan Williams. It's got a nice single batch bourbon taste!!!!

I’ve had this scent linger for a good hour, and then when I go back outside it refreshes itself. Very nice, but once again, I couldn’t sniff this one all day because of how rich it is.
        I have to agree with this review too...stuff is good! I'd never seen it mentioned anyplace, so I tried it. Plus the packaging was a little different. Definitely a nice vanilla scent to it, almost a creamy vanilla. It stays right on the desk for when I need a vanilla kick.

          I keep getting new F&T's. The Santo Domingo is awesome IMO.

            I don't think either of the apricot snuffs smell like apricots. Gawith's smells like peach gummy rings to me, and McChrystal's is a bit closer, but still has something of a candy odour to it. That said, I prefer McChrystal's.

            I want to order the Toques I haven't tried, but I'm trying to avoid one brand too much. I'm kind of afraid to order Spanish Jewel/Gem (I can never remember which one is a Toque and which one is the original), as I'll be so let down if I do like, since I most likely won't ever get the chance to try the original. It's no longer made, from what I understand, which makes me wish I had started earlier.

              Gawith was the only one I had.

                Mr. Snuffleupagus, F&T Santo Domingo is my second favorite F&T. HDT is first. Princes Special is 3rd. The rest of the line is a tie, except Old Paris, I can't stand that one.

                shikitohno, Wilson's Apricot really does taste like Apricots. Plus it has a fantastic tobacco base, and no menthol.

                  I am new to Nasal Snuff although it has a history going back 100's of years in my Country.

                  to give my gums a rest in the upper deck and lower deck from Snus and Dip I have been using Fribourg & Treyer 'High Dry Toast' all day and its a refreshing change.

                    Nice vid. The F&T HDT is one of my top favorite snuffs from any maker. It's not the easiest to take, but the nutty smokiness never gets old or cloying.

                    Just an FYI. AFAIK there's no makers of snuff left in Ireland. The toast style is said to have started there, so the F&T could be called an Irish toast also, it just isn't :^D I've only had Wilson's and the F&T, but I imagine they're all just variations on a theme. The Wilson's HDT #20 is a bergamot based toast. It's good, but I don't find it particularly toasty.

                      I like the Wilsons DHT #20 and IHT #22 for different things, but find myself going more for the #20. Just took a pinch of #22, and it reminds me of Rooster, but sans BBQ odour. I'll probably keep a tin around for when I want it, but I don't think I'll need more than a medium in the foreseeable future. Might get a 21g tin of #20, though. I love that stuff.

                        My tin of #20's AWOL, I'm not sure what happened to it. I may have left it in a jacket pocket somewhere. After mentioning it I wanted some, but no #20 for me :^(

                        Give the Samuel Gawith SP #1 High Mill a try some time. It's a finely ground, slightly moist SP that's very good. I got a large tin that was vacuum sealed, so the freshness was great. I don't know how it holds up in the plastic boxes.

                            Well my order from Nicotine rush was placed on Saturday, and my shipment was in the mailbox today! WoW! That was fast. I have tried a bunch, and have no idea what to say, I am too new, I do like the Crumbs of Comfort for the clearing effect, good spearmint flavor. My first sniff of Packard's about blew my head off. Same for High Dry Toast. Dholakia Swiss chocolate is interesting. Nose is now royally pissed at me. Menthol is hard to take, and has a real rebound effect.

                            Newbie aspect of this is that you guys might be crazy to do this stuff! But up the learning curve I go. Hmm, peanut butter eh? Later.

                              Some of the menthols can be a little tricky. I used to like all of them(and still do to some extent), but I've gravitated towards the warm menthols as opposed to the sharp. Here's a few from each category for comparison...

                                I've been treating myself throughout the day with Skruf Stark white portions and a little Toque Original to top it off. It's like a plethora of bergamot and is very relaxing.

                                If you are a fan of either, I suggest trying them at the same time, it's very nice.

                                Btw, I picked up the 10$ Metal Snuff Bullet CNC from Nicotinerush. This thing is amazing. It has a little carb on the side so you can hold your finger over it, take little sniffs, and remove your finger slowly to allow more to flow through. It has a very sturdy construction and holds quite a bit of snuff (2g I want to say). I have had no clogging issues with it, and the amount it gives you is more than enough. I would say each turn gives you a good amount, larger than a good sized pea. If you are new to bullets, as I am, I would definitely recommend this.
