About

Top25snuff is a non-commercial website with consumer ratings of nasal snuff. Since 2009 it has been collecting reviews written by adult users and organising them into a catalogue and a ratings ranking. The website is intended only for people aged 18 or over.

Warning: snuff is a tobacco product. It contains nicotine, is addictive and harms your health. If you want to cut down or quit, call the free helpline of the Telephone Counselling Service for Smokers (Telefoniczna Poradnia Pomocy Palącym): 801 108 108 (Poland).

What this website is not

  • We do not sell snuff or any other tobacco products, and we do not act as an intermediary in their sale.
  • We do not cooperate with manufacturers, importers, distributors or shops. We do not accept money, products for review, commissions or any other benefits from them.
  • We do not publish advertisements, sponsored articles or affiliate links. We do not give prices or say where to buy snuff.
  • We do not encourage anyone to take snuff. The descriptions are meant to inform how users rate it, not to persuade anyone to buy it.

Where the ratings come from

Every rating is given by a registered user who has taken the snuff in question. A review contains ratings in two categories (flavour — 80%, packaging — 20%) and a description in the reviewer’s own words. The editors do not give their own ratings and do not change users’ ratings.

The ranking is a list of the snuffs rated highest in reviews, not a list of recommended products. The order is set by a weighted rating: the average of all reviews adjusted for their number, so that a single enthusiastic review is not enough for a high position. The formula and rules are described on the ranking page.

Critical opinions stay

We publish positive, neutral and negative reviews on the same terms. We do not remove or hide reviews because of a low rating — we only moderate posts that break the rules. Reviews on a snuff’s page are shown newest first, without favouring high ratings. The star distribution for each snuff shows how divided opinions are.

The short “In brief” descriptions summarise what reviewers write — including reservations and disagreements. They contain no encouragement, no superlatives in our own voice and no information about prices or shops.

Photos

Instead of photos of the packaging, the website shows rating cards: the name, the manufacturer, the average, the rating distribution and a strip in the colours of the packaging that helps to recognise it. Photos added by users are visible only to logged-in users — in a small format, solely for recognising the packaging. They are not advertising material, and we do not publish them on behalf of manufacturers or sellers.

Rules for users

  • Only adults may create an account.
  • Trading, sale and swap offers, links to shops and auctions, and urging others to buy are prohibited. Posts with such links wait for a moderator or are rejected.
  • A review should describe your own impressions. We remove reviews written on behalf of a manufacturer or seller.
