In general, how strong are the Poschl schmalzlers? I have A Brazil and Perlesreuter already and wondered if D or SF were of similar strengths?
It is hard to find any figures. I get the impression they are low nicotine schmalzlers.
In my experience all the Pöschl snuffs particularly the schmalzlers are pretty weak in the nic department, all of the same category/grind tend to hit the same (maybe because of the mass production manufacturing process)
I don´t have any exact numbers but based on my experience if you shove a lot of it up your nose, wich is fairly easy with their grind and oiliness, you can hope for a medium nic hit with a long delivery time.
If you are looking for a good nic hit in a coarse grind better try TAXI or NTSU, but be advised that their scent is strongly fermented tobacco / Barnyard not the sweet aroma of the schlmazlers.
Great answers, thanks – are there schmalzlers still available which are strong in the nic department?
Or maybe I just switch up between the Poschl offerings and reinforce it with W&H USA 🙂

My understanding is Poschl doesn’t use alkalizers. That means no matter how much nicotine the tobacco has you’re not going to get much from it.
I’ve often considered adding alkalizers to them. I think i’ll try it soon. Could be a real game changer.
