Does anyone know?

Does anyone know of anyone who makes banana non menthol snuff?

Closest to banana is Poschl Schmalzler D (Doppelaroma), but that's my nose. Others get brandy, rum, pudding, apples... Anyways, it could be a very nice introduction into the schmalzler side of the snuff. http://www.snuffstore.co.uk/poschl-schmalzler-doppelaroma-25g-p-785.html

If you are adventurous, you can experiment with banana ester (isoamyl acetate) or banana oil, adding some to your plain snuff of choice, but don't ask me about the amounts.

Or you can try procuring some @nicmizer 's Bananas Foster.

I also get a bit of a banana ish flavour in Firedance as well as brandy, blackberry and vanilla.

@nicmizer makes a mean one

Who is this infamous nicmizer also I found this while looking through the poschls.

He's been on the forum for a long time. Got a sample of his banana and it was supreme. Really good with flavorings that guy is. Some of the best snuff out there comes from home chefs.

Poschl Sudfrucht is known as Banana Bomb by the oldtimers of this site.

Justin

@n9inchnails is spot on. Samuel Gawith used to do one but I don't think it survived the TPD. If you can cope with schmalzlers then Sudfrucht is the way to go.

volunge

I would say, both Sudfrucht and Doppelaroma are worth giving a try.

There is a consensus among a bunch of Polish snuffers that Doppelaroma has banana flavour. http://www.top25snuff.com/poschl-tabak-gmbh-co-kg/d-doppelaroma.html (all reviews there are in Polish, please use google translator, if you are interested).

Some German snuffers mention chocolate and banana notes in Doppelaroma as well. https://www.snuffstore.de/schnupftabak/laender/deutschland/poeschl-schmalzler-d (click on "Bewertungen").

@volunge
Bernard Magic Moment is really a banana schmalzler too
Very good indeed

rostanf

@nicmizer any thoughts on this thread?

Tobaccoman

At the end of the month I am actually going to order the dopplearoma and the other one, along with magic moments. Maybe even see if any of nicmizer stuff is up for grabs.

mrmanos

Doppelaroma is the closest you're gonna get to banana now that SG quit making it. Never tried it, the poschl sudfruct is pretty good stuff if you can take the nasty drip. I have some in the freezer that I use occasionally.

Tobaccoman

Yeah I'm gonna go with @volunge on this one and Def get the dopple. But the other one has me intrigued. And magic moments, I was going to order this last year but never did. I am imagining this schlmzers as like a very indulgent, candy like experience where it will just melt in my nose. Any truth to this?

volunge

How are they, @Tobaccoman? Do you get a banana note in any of them?

Tobaccoman

@volunge there's a definite banana note smelling the bag of the Sudfrucht I can't detect it as much while taking it. Also these scents are still very foreign to me, so I still have to develop them. I haven't cracked the dopplearoma yet. Maybe today. But magic moments has a very fig Newton smell. And I can notice the difference between those two I listed.

Find out where @nicmizer gets his banana flavoring. Unfortunately, he seems to have gone off the grid again. His banana snuffs reign supreme IMHO
