Hupyrian beetle snuff is a fine powder made of dried beetles that was a delicacy among Ferengi. It is inhaled through the nose and can often produce a fit of sneezing. Though not strictly a narcotic, the snuff acts as a mild stimulant with some euphoric side effects. It also has a deleterious effect on the linings of the nose which are accumulative. (DS9: "The Nagus", "Prophet Motive")
