Ey new snuser! Order just came in

[Joshtimes]

HEY yall, my names josh. I am a new snuser, my order just arrived fro northerner, I purchased a few different types. Roda Lacket Loose, Goteborgs rape No2 portions, Goteborgs rape loose, General Onyx, general sus trail pack, and catch eucalyptus . I tried the goteborgs rape loose , I failed miserably though the "pri" broke in 5 seconds and went all over my mouth hahahaha , so i tried the catch portions and its pretty good, sorta rough on my back throat makes it tingly and sorta itchy but im getting used to it. hahah

that's a good start mate :-)

you'll get used to it ... it's pretty difficult to find the ones that suit you best, there's just to many to choose from

Welcome to snuson

The loose snus must be compressed before going into the lip, unlike chewing tobacco (gravity helps keep that stuff in place.) You can do this by putting a pinch into the palm of one hand, and using the fingertips of the other hand to press and form it into a cylindrical shape (like a Tootsie Roll! but smaller and narrower, preferably.) This is called "baking," not to be confused with the oven heating process.

Alternatively, if you don't want to get the hang of this, you can buy an Icetool -- look em up; the plastic ones are cheap and perfect for beginners.

Hope you enjoy your snus! Save the Onyx for last :-)

Also look on YouTube search for handbake snus and there's a few videos on it.

Welcome to SnusOn Josh.... Keep trying with the Los....

You will get the hang of it, The same thing happened to me on my first try... It didn't take long before It just stayed together.

Welcome to Snus On. I found it's good to keep an open mind while ordering. In the beginning it was all wintergreen now I am finding I like Mint better (which I absolutley hated at first) I am even ordering Berry blends now. Find something you like make that the focus of your order and throw in a few different kinds on each order. It also helps to narrow it down to Strong Portion,Los regular or White and go from there.

Okay , heres my status update guys . So far i have tried General Mini mint whites, general regular all the geenral portions , goteborgs rape los, and catch eucalyptus , and RODA LACKET , Roda lacket los is by far the best one ive had yet . I didnt like the generals flavor at all i dont know why

[Joshtimes]

My friend put two of general onyx portions the black ones in and it was his first time HAHAHAHA

[GiantsNut57]

Oy vey, how did that go? Do some research on health and harm reduction, it's pretty awesome stuff that sets your mind at ease! Roda Los, is one that I haven't tried yet, but I love the Vit Portion... Give Ettan a try some day and if you like the Onyx, also think Nick (And Johnny) Strong. Tastes just like Onyx just no citrus! Good luck snusin!

I remember doing the same thing you did on my first dive into snus. Among some other brands I can't remember, I ordered a can of Skruf OP, Gotesborg Rape No. 2, and General OP. I'm pretty sure I remembered disliking the General, but the others were alright. Nowadays, all I use is General! Funny how things change.
