1
Open the chewing tobacco package with your hands. Evaluate the freshness of the tobacco by checking whether it is moist and pleasantly aromatic.
- Snuff is also available in pouches or sachets.However, the same method is used regardless of the packaging.However, tin boxes are the most common containers for this tobacco.
- If you are a beginner, try to get the big cut chewable ones.It is easier to pinch and hold in one place in your mouth.
2
Compress the tobacco. This step is optional, but it helps you compact the tobacco, so it's easier to grip and you can get more of it to put in your mouth.
- The easiest way to do this is to simply bang the can a couple of times on any base, which can be your leg or a table.
- The most refined way is to hold the can with the thumb, middle and ring fingers, keeping the index finger free.Move your hand up and down quickly, forcing your index finger to make a banging noise on the side of the jar.The impact of your finger will cause the tobacco to compact.
Taking the first one from a new tin is more difficult than subsequent takes, but simply reach your fingers deep into the tobacco and pull out a pinch.A pinch is usually the amount you can hold between your thumb and the tip of your index finger.If you've just started chewing, it's best to get a small one.
4
Place the pinch of tobacco between your lips and gums. Make sure it's tightly packed, as you don't want loose tobacco floating around in your mouth and accidentally swallowing it.
- When you're starting out, it's best if you put it on your lower lip, because it's harder to keep it on your upper lip.Experts can place it on the upper lip, or make it like a horseshoe (all around the lower lip).Compact the tobacco with your tongue, if necessary, to ensure it is firmly in place.
5
Wait for the juices to accumulate in your mouth. To get more juice, move your lip in and out.You don't have to chew, unlike chewing tobacco (like Red Man).Nicotine is absorbed through the lip, without actually having to chew it.
- For some cuts, you may need to run some saliva into the pinch of tobacco.This is because some cuts can leave a cottony feel in your mouth, and you want to moisten the tobacco by producing saliva.
- If you are a beginner, you may experience a pleasant buzz or nausea followed by vomiting.If you start to sweat, feel nauseous, or feel uncomfortably light-headed, get rid of tobacco immediately, as you may soon feel unwell.
6
Spit out the juice. Wait until your mouth is filled with tobacco juice.
- You can use a plastic bottle to spit.Make sure you close the cap of the bottle when you spit into it, otherwise it may spill.
- You can also use a spittoon or snuffbox.The important thing is that you find a suitable container that does not tip over, and that prevents the juice from spilling out.
The fridge or freezer is good because it prevents it from drying out.

Advice

Always check the date indicated on the packaging.Stores often sell old or soon-to-expire tobacco.The manufacturing date should be no later than one month and the expiration date should not be exceeded.
For your first pinch, avoid strong tobaccos like Copenhagen and Grizzly.Try Skoal or a cheaper brand like Longhorn or Husky.These have less nicotine and give you less "dizziness" (buzz).
If you later find that you want more of a "buzz" (your body adapts to the nicotine intake), you can try adding additives to your tobacco.In Alaska the natives use the ash of a mushroom collected from a birch tree, which they call "punk ash", mix it with tobacco and you get an incredible buzz, similar to what you felt the first time (you will probably also try some nausea).The natives also call it "Eskimo Cocaine".
Don't spit tobacco on the floor or anything else where someone might walk.You can spit into a container.We're only a couple of rude people away from getting this product banned!
Flavored Wintergreen tobacco and some brands (such as Grizzly, Stokers, Longhorn, and Hawken) can cause an effect called "Alligator Lip," which occurs when the gums become wrinkled.
Drinking anything immediately after using snuff is unpleasant, as you still have the taste in your mouth.This reminds you that you need to brush your teeth and have a drink.Remember to rinse your mouth with a little water and spit it out before drinking, if you can.
Don't use snuff when you are drunk or impaired.It will hurt if you are not used to it.
While this article talks about tobacco in tins, tobacco in pouches can be a little easier to handle, since it's cleaner, you don't need to compact it, and it's already the right size.
Clean your mouth thoroughly with water or another drink at the end.There is nothing worse than feeling the slight nausea of the first take, and then swallowing a mixture of tobacco, saliva and leaves.
If you get used to tobacco over time, you can start "guzzling", or swallowing this juice.However, you can get sick if you try to do it before your body is fully accustomed to it.
Don't try to take tobacco before you get used to nicotine.
Punk ash, eskimo cocaine, iqmik are other additives that you can pleasantly chew with tobacco (check if they are available in your country).
