Swiss Snuff

[simong]

If you find yourself holidaying in Switzerland by mistake, don’t despair! You can find some excitement by way of an absolute belter of a snuff. Apparently made in a chemists shop in Basel, this stuff is simply superb, stand on me.
Medicated (menthol) & laced with some sort of alcohol, think it might be absinthe, guaranteed to get one’s nostrils a yodelling. Deep, rich, heady & exquisite. If you’re partial to a pinch & come across a tin of this, you deserve it to yourself to try it out.

Savage stuff, Ponsonby. As we say in the shire.
According to Orson Wells the only thing to come out of Switzerland was cuckoo clocks. We now know that was an untruth as they can do a stonking good snuff!

@simong: I hear they do an interesting line in cheese with holes as well!

There are strange corners in this world and on these interwebs.

I remember being told as a child that the Swiss had a special man whose job was to drill holes in the cheese! Seriously, it was probably from the same people who told me about chimneys and Santa and watching too much TV would give me square eyes. The joys of being a stupid 5 year old!

The non mentholated version is amazing too, a lot more sweetness and smokiness comes through. I like em both but i think the high menthol content covers some of the aromas. Cheers from basel.
