I use the pinching method almost exclusively. It allows you to insufflate the snuff in careful gradations of the material just by modulating the level of pressure release between finger and thumb

I am intrigued by the taxi method reported by rd. Will have to get another Taxi in my next order

I love pipe tobaccos of various kinds. At one point I was smoking around 10 bowls a day.  About six months ago I discovered the rich and varied world of nasal snuffs. Now I’m a kid in the candy store when I go on the Toque website and go nuts on trying out now snuffs. In the process, I cut my pipe smoking in half. So now I smoke 5 or 6 bowls per day and shovel the snuff up my nose when i’m not smoking. It’s a good balance for meeting my nicotinic cravings.
