Well, a bunch of my new homebrew equipment has arrived and I can’t wait to get started again. It looks like I’ll get my first batch going this weekend.

This is part of my kegging system. Much easier than bottling.

Some ingredients and miscellaneous equipment. The seedlings in the tray in the background are my tobacco seedlings. They are doing great! They are definitely ready to go into the ground. Snuff from scratch soon!

Coopers Malt extract.

About 20 years ago I had a mail order/retail business selling home beer and wine making supplies. At that time, most people had no idea you could actually make great beer at home.  Many of the current micro breweries in the Orlando/Mid Florida area got their start making beer at home from the supplies they got from me.  About 4 years into it, someone made me an offer that I couldn’t pass on, so I sold the business and have not brewed since.

Well, the bug has struck again, and I’ve ordered all the equipment and supplies needed to start brewing again. Everything is due here soon and I can’t wait to get started. Once I have everything here, I’ll post pictures of all the new equipment.

Yep, after a really big scare, Rooster is back in stock! 3 or 4 weeks ago I was told by my distributor that Rooster had been discontinued. As many of you already know, this is my brand and has been my all day snuff for about 10 years. Talk about panic!!! LOL! I immediately got on the phone and attempted to prove or disprove this apparent tragedy. Everywhere I turned, I got the same response, NO ROOSTER! I eventually got a hold of the head of the ’smokeless’ tobacco division for US Smokeless, and she confirmed that Rooster DRY snuff was still being manufactured and that Rooster MOIST snuff had been discontinued. (major sigh of relief here!) All is now well in my nose!

I want to thank ‘miamimark’ for his generous and quick response to my plea for a tin of Rooster as I was totally out. I forgot to save enough for myself, and had sold the last 12 tins to customers.
THANKS MARK!

 SCHIP has been in effect for 3 days and already the price increases are astounding. It seems that anyone involved is using it as an excuse to raise prices dramatically. As an example, yesterday I placed an order for a popular  American scotch that I was getting low on. The price was OVER $7.00 DOLLARS MORE PER BOX than what I paid for it 3 weeks ago! When I questioned the distributor, they blamed it on the new tax. When I mentioned that the new tax was only about $1.34 per box, I was told, "tough s***".
Well, I guess we all know what ‘rolls down hill’. 

Most Americans have gone up between $4 and $5 dollars per box. We are also beginning to see European snuffs increase as well. Seems like everyone is getting on the bandwagon.

Here at Nicotine Rush, we simply cannot absorb a $7.00 increase per box. (let alone $4 or $5) The profit in snuff was minimal to begin with. It’s unfortunate, but these new price increases make it impossible to continue without raising our prices to you. Most snuff’s have, or will shortly, be going up 10 to 15 cents per tin.

As I’ve mentioned before, snuff still remains the absolute best value in tobacco today.
