    Does anyone else here chew?

    So do any of our members from the EU use Nordic Chew ?

    It's a relatively new product from Denmark very similar to snus and available to those in the EU that cannot get their hands on snus due to EU laws/regulations.

    I made an article about my adventures with it here and will look to update it with any new findings.

    Do share your thoughts if you are using the product and if you do decide to buy some if you click through to BuySnus EU here and enter coupon code 'SNUSON' at checkout this will give you a 10% discount on your next order.

    Happy chewing!

    I do and I particulalry enjoy GR slims. And yes, I even chew them a bit as I find the flavour and stength can be a bit lacking otherwise.

    I still prefer snus overall I think though.

      Yeah, I find I bite on them sometimes to release some more flavour/nicotine too. I thought that was a myth :-) but it's sort of reminiscent of Oliver Twist to me sometimes.

        So how are our Chewers' experiences these days?

        The Thunder products by V2 Tobacco seem quite popular along with Siberia by GN Tobacco and Göteborgs Rapé by Swedish Match.

        Do share your favourite brands and experiences with us. We'd love to hear.

          It seems Swedish Match pulled their products in this category (more here) leaving very little to choose from. Did anyone out there use these products whilst they were around? and what were your thoughts on them?

            Did not. Must have dismissed the idea at some point early on. Maybe should try a can. Sounds like these chew bags was a workaround for the EU folks. Glad they had something similar to snus as an option. Guess they like the nico pouches more.

              They were better than nic pouches but not as good as snus IMO. They had the whole range of tobacco alkaloids but I think the cut of the tobacco was a bit different perhaps shredded rather than a powder (?)

                Yes, I beleive the tobacco was shredded rather than powdered making them technically different to snus. Made the portions a bit bumpier under the lip. (What was then) V2 made them for Sweedish Match in Denmark.

                  They were indeed intended as a workaround for those in the EU outside Sweden.
                  Nicotine pouches do seem to have won the battle as far as the EU solution goes. Not too keen on them myself preferring a tobacco-based product but that's just my preference.
