Another snork thread... kinda

At the same time, there are many, many, many non-pepper-bomb NCs and I find a lot of them to be both entirely pleasant and very revealing/educational/tasty to snork.

Or, to make a long story short, I call on the "CCs are for snorkers and NCs are for non-snorkers" myth.

I really didn't post this thread to become an argument over whether or not NC's are for mouth smoker's only. Or whether or not someone can snork a NC. I posted this as a new method for people to try. I find it works better than snorking. It doesn't matter if it's a NC or CC, this method gives more flavor to me.

Why not try it out, then report back with your findings. I think that might provide much better discussion than arguing over whether or not NC's burn.

I didn't mean to jack your thread!

Your method is kind like a "French inhale" without the stricter sense of "inhale" and is akin to the method of passing the lit end along under your nose (a good inch away) as you breathe in lightly. Helpful techniques, both.

No worries. But it's not the french inhale. The method I proposed relies on retronasal recptors instead of orthonasal ones.

I see. I was picturing your method incorrectly. I re-read your description and understand it now.
