Home-ground Toque rustica with bicarbonate
From puffpuff on the Snuffhouse forum, 2009
A first snuff: Toque rustica leaf ground in a coffee grinder with a touch of bicarbonate. It scored 3 out of 5, as a baseline to improve on.
Rustica carries several times the nicotine of ordinary tobacco. Take very small pinches, and stop if you feel sick or dizzy.

Equipment
Method
Rest time
You can use it straight away. After two weeks it had mellowed a little.
Tasting notes
Peppery at first, then a "cardboard box" body, with a slow, focused hit.
Notes
It came out too dry and too coarse. Next time: a finer grind, sifting through tights, and rinsing the leaf in Scotch before grinding.
