Do cigar shops carry snuff?

[EricHill78]

I really want to try snuff. I've been reading about it here on the board. Do most cigar
shops carry it or is it hit or miss like General?

One I walked in not too too long ago did. Poschl and American scotches.

[c.nash]

Just order some from Toque. Great deals and free shipping that takes under a week usually.

grocery stores around here carry all kinds of american scotches, like railroad mills, navy, w.e.garret?.. etc. maybe they do where you live? be careful with that dry snuff... it can blo yer head off..lol

Thanks for the info guys.. I checked out the toque site looks good.. I'm probably just going to buy one tin to give it a chance.. Don't want to buy 10 and hate the stuff

Eric, you can find some at your neighborhood HEB. (No idea if the brands they carry are any good as I don't use it, but there you go.)

No prob. FYI, you can probably see for yourself what they carry in the cabinet with the other smokeless tobacco. That's the only reason I know they carry it. But you'll have to get a salesclerk to unlock the cabinet and get the merchandise, same as with any other tobacco purchase at a grocery store. Anyway, happy snuffing!

Eric I think all HEB carries is Levi Garrett, Tops, WE Garrett these are what they call American Scotch snuffs some folks really like them I don't care for them myself. I'm partial to the English snuffs like Wilson's of Sharrow, Toque also the German Schmaltzers like Bernards and the Schmaltzers from Poschl. The Humidor on San Pedro Ave. may have some of the Poschl Packards Club and Poschl Ozona snuffs but in my opinion these are just OK very heavy on the menthol they are, you just can't beat the English snuffs IMHO. I have some bulk Wilson's, Schmaltzers from Poschl and Sternecker Echt Fresco also a variety of Toques maybe I could get a few samples to you.

Does anyone remember this stuff?

Toque blueberry menthol is INCREDIBLE! They're so cheap, too, might as well pick up a few flavors.

I checked out HEB's selection which wasn't too great as you mention I saw the Levi's and a couple others. One actually said "tobacco free wintergreen" I couldn't help but laugh. I don't think I'll be a big fan of the American style snuff but may give it a shot. Funny you mention Club Humidor on San Pedro. That's actually the first place I baught real snus. They actually gave me a bag with a bunch of those general samplers. OP and wintergreen. They don't have much there in the general fridge. I may stop by there this weekend to take a look at their snuff. Menthol doesn't bother me too much I used to smoke menthols. I checked out the toque website because of c.nash's suggestion. The flavor selection is unbelievable! The one that made me take a double take was the "bacon cheese" lol I have to try that just to say I did. Yeah that sounds cool if you could set me up with a sampler. I'll pay you for it.

If you hate them you can always put them up on the exchange thread. Plenty of Toque fans here will be happy to trade some snus for them.

I'd wait on the American scotches if I were you. Start out with the non toast Toque because they are beginner friendly. After you get the hang of it, than I would go for the toast/scotches.

Keep in mind that Scotches are mind blowing and have a huge nicotine content.

I buy my snus at a cigar store, but they only carry General brand.
