Bummer, Discreet.

[snusgetter]

I reversed it and found another site Northerner owns.
https://<a href="http://www.snusamer...erica.com/</a>

They must have a hell of a domain renewal bill every year :P

Not when they buy in bulk!! The prices can really get cheap.

That is a bummer! Discreet introduced me to Rootbeer snus, a flavor I have since tried to copy using my Snus X portion kit...unsuccessfully. I hope Tom ended business on a somewhat positive note, he was extremely generous with samples and one-on-one contact with customers.

He was a really nice guy. His snus was better than the American Camel but it was still bleh. Like the above poster said, sweet. I didn't dig the dryness either.

I remember receiving a free sample order and not being impressed. While they were less sweet than Marlboro and Camel snus, the nicotine content was too low for my needs.

Yah, the taste wasn't even really bad, and I didn't even really mind the sweetness, but it was little more than a pouch of dirt as far as nicotine content is concerned.

I still have multiple packs that he sent me of every flavor he ever put out. Even the ones that never got released.

I doubt I'll ever use them.

I only had one discrete portion ever from a package in a box pass. It wasn't for me due to the sweetness. I did like the bag though. I don't recall the nic level as it was a while ago but at any rate it didn't impress me. Maybe if I had tried it before Swedish snus I would have liked it 'cos as others have said it's better than Camel or that Marlboro stuff. I agree that the American customer needs a nicotine punch to the face. We like everything else in excess which is why I think that all US brands are overly sweet.

Thats totally me right there. It's getting to where its all sterk, all the time. I just love that "punch to the face" as you said. Thunder, Nick & Johnny, Jak's, Onyx, Claq(r.i.p.), I cant get enough!

It doesn't suprise me. And I tend to agree with him, considering his product, which seems to have been markted towards women, and lonely truck drivers.

I did like how Tom would come here and post, and his free samples were very generous. And I think all of us here at the time, was very interested in his plans/efforts to make a full sized Swede style snus.

I think had he done this, he may have had a more viable product, maybe.

R.I.P. Discreet.


I still have some of the orange flavored ones, in the silver bag.

Just talked to Tom from Discreet, sadly he closed up shop, sold his equipment and factory. When asking him who he sold his equipment to he said he couldn't say that much, and he closed with "snus just isn't a viable business in the US."

Sad to see this happen.

Does anyone know if Discreet is still making snus? Yesterday I bought a pack of Strawberry from a tobacco shop. The portions were still soft. The stuff tastes like candy. I kinda like it.

It doesn't sound like it (from your quote above) and I certainly have not heard anything about them in a while

[Skell18]

Northerner still sell them from what I can see.

You should email the company. I don't know which smokeless company made them exactly, but I heard they stopped. Now, I also have seen it at various places. I know that there are others that really like certain flavors and I can't see Northerner still having some since Discreet supposedly stopped production.

Don't know if its different for your country but they are still listed on Northerner's website for europe from the US warehouse.

I don't have an email addy but the maker is listed as the American Smokeless Tobacco Co of South Boston VA.
