Fingers and Thumb

One of the most common snufftaking methods is to take a pinch of snuff in between the index finger and thumb and gently powder each nostril.

The Anatomical Snuffbox

This is the technical name (and the common name, in so far as there is one), for the little "dip" on the side of your wrist that occurs when you put your thumb out. To find it, extend your thumb as if you are hitchhiking; this will raise the tendon down the back of your thumb. There will be a shallow dip on either side of this tendon; the dip on the outside (towards the edge, not the back) of your hand, down where your hand is just meeting your wrist, is your anatomical snuffbox.

Backhander Technique
Some people find it easiest to pepper the back of their hand with snuff for a quick burst of snuff flavour.

Snuff Equipment
Certain snuff applicators are available on the market that you can fill up and use for a quick, clean sniff.
