Adding Peppermint flavor to snus

[texasbygod]

So I ordered my usual favorite Metropol Peppermint from Buysnus the other day when they happily informed me that it was no longer available. So long story short - I've got a roll of Lucky Strike white portion.
I would like to add the flavor of peppermint to this.
Does anyone know how to go about it? Anyone tried it?

Hm, I suppose you could just ad a drop or two of a natural peppermint oil to each portion -- it shouldn't be so hard to get your hands on. I imagine that it would do just fine.

I havn't experimented with adding flavors/aromas myself but I know that several fine people on this board have had good luck with different types of alcohol :wink:

A drop of peppermint oil would be way too much flavour for a one-gram portion. You'd be best to use something like a peppermint extract, which is like a tincture of peppermint rather than the concentrated oil. I would think it would absorb better into the portion and give a much nicer flavour. You may even want to dilute the extract further until you get the strength tasting right.

^ Yes, that's probably a much better idea. Forget the oil-thingy.
