      Welcome to the forum mate!!

      Like the others have said................try a variety..............don't order rolls of anything new for a while and don't throw anything you don't like away-- freeze it (your taste will change).

      Grov, Skruf, and Phantom Blue (all los) will do ya right
      When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

        Over the course of the night I tried a couple different ones.

        Oden's Original- Not so sure about this one. It seemed almost "cheaper" in a way. I guess just overall my first impression wasn't very high. It wasn't so much the flavor as it was that it didn't feel well packaged in the pouch and it was quite runny.

        General Stark White- It makes me hiccup, a typical side effect when I intake a larger amount of nicotine than I am used to. It's kind of like the regular White except that it hits harder and the pepper flavor is much more prevalent at first. Once the pepper dies down it has a very smooth and mellow taste. I like the flavor better than regular White, I just have to get used to the extra nicotine. Would make a good wake-me-up snus in the morning.

        Ettan- First impression of this one was quite good. Nothing over-the-top, nothing fancy, just straight smoky tobacco flavor with a slight hint of dark chocolate. After this can I might consider switching to this one at work, nice mellow flavor that was quite relaxing and enjoyable without being too strong.

        Probe- The flavor is interesting and different. Not going to use it all day at work, but it would make a good after dinner snus or a good snus while consuming alcohol.

        I'm sticking with General Original for my daily snus, for now. It's the one I'm used to, but if I continue to like the Ettan as much as I did then it may ultimately prevail over the General. However, I definitely need to stick with portions for work. I work as a commissioned salesman so taking time off the floor to work with loose is money lost, with a portion I pop one in real quick without having to go outside.

              You have great taste Enzo.. Ettan is a classic.. Pure tobacco taste with the hint of chocolate is the way I put it as well.. Wait till you try Ettan Los, it's incredible.

                So I pulled a bit of a gametime decision right before work today and decided to bring the Ettan instead of my normal General. I could definitely get used to using this snus daily, it seems that as the day progressed the flavor got richer every time I put a portion in.

                I also tried the Gateborgs White. The flavor is quite rich, perhaps a little too fruity to be used all day but certainly an enjoyable after work snus. It provides a nice break from the Ettan I used all day.

                  So I placed my next order. This time I got 4 General Portions (it's a love affair), 1 General Onyx Sterk, 2 Ettan Portions, 1 Ettan Los, 1 Grovsnus Portion, 1 Nick & Johnny Sterk, 1 Thunder Berry Blend ES, 1 01 Orginal, 1 02 Original Sterk, and 1 Gotlanskt Julesnus.

                  Thanks for all the suggestions guys! I used as many of them as I could, even the Ettan Los snuck in there. Can't wait to get this order in (likely on monday, tuesday at the latest).
