    New snuser introduction

    What's up everyone? I'm new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I decided to quit smoking this year for personal and health reasons. I always knew about the American snus (i cant believe i ever put that shit in my mouth), but after some research I found real snus. I was so inspired to try it after reading on forums and blogs that I ordered 10 cans from snuscentral.com. Here was my first order :
    1.Goteborgs Rape
    2.GR no.2
    3.ettan portion
    4.thunder long + chocomint
    5.thunder coola
    6.grovsnus white
    7.odens extreme
    8.Probe whiskey portion
    9.general white portion
    10. and (sorry i know its girly) mocca pomegranate
    The first portion i tried gave me a huge nicotine buzz (coola), but I hated the taste and thought I wasted money. I was SO wrong. After toughing it out thru a mix of about 5 portions I adjusted and found my tobacco zen. Once you get used to the odd basicity in snus the actual flavors are clear as day.
    I've already gone thru all my Goteborgs no.1, ettan, general white, and both thunders. I loved my general and rape but I found them quite salty. The salt, which will took some getting used to enhanced the flavor a good bit. The Ettan original portions were absolutely amazing (and not as salty as the rape and general). I thought they tasted and smelled like my old camel lights but better (the chocolate undertone really got me). The thunders had a great nicotine hit and very interesting flavors, but the tobacco was not on the level of the Swedish match products. That being said I will still definitely include thunder in my future orders. I HATED the Probe at first, but after a few portions I began to enjoy it (I have one in now ).
    So thats my bisnusography. I want to say thank you to the people on this forum for giving me the resources to make informed decisions about enhancing my life through snus.

      Welcome to Snuson! Great selection. Did you include any los (loose snus)? If not give roda lacket los a try. Easy to hand bake. No need for a pris master unless you just want one. You picked 2 of my favorites! The extreme and rape no 2 are amazing. Another great one to try is the General Onyx. Really peppery with lemon undertones. My work snus. lol. Very low drip. Also, put them in a black icetool can and its the darth vader of snus. Black portions with black can. Amazing. Lol.

        Thank you! and I did not include any los, but I think I will try some in my next order. Doesnt roda have a licorice flavor? If so do you have any other loose suggestions, I have always had an aversion to licorice :/. And I just tried my odens extreme last night, that stuff is intense! I will be sure to include onyx in my order too, Ive only heard good things about it.
        Thanks again!

          When you get more adapted to the high nicotine contents you might want some Odens Extreme Lös - the flavor is fantastic, but the nic hit is intense!
          Otherwise I recommend trying anything that sounds like something you might like - everyone has a different taste, and it's important to find your own. And if you ever find yourself loving a wintergreen or some other flavor watch out! If you do them to regularily you will often loose the taste for it, stop bying it, and miss out on some of the other great minty snus's.
          Also - Mocca Pomegranate, really? Hehe

          AND OF COURSE : Welcome to SnusOn! We're glad to have you here. Enjoy your stay, and learn to cope with our innappropriate and great humor

                Your welcome. My favorite los is extreme and roda lackett. Idk what RL tastes like. Lol. Def not licorice. More of a natural tobacco flavor. Some ppl say raisins but I dont taste raisins at all. I like it because its like playdoh. It hand bakes sooo easily. Ettan los is really good. General was good. Those are all i have tried on the los side.

                  Raisin would be a very weird taste lol but it seems worth a try, the easier it is to handbake the better

                    When I decided that I was done with smoking I tried every snus I could try. Made a spreadsheet in the Open Office equiv of Excel and took notes on everything I tried. A year and a half later I have one cig every few months and don't finish it. The snus will win in the long term and about ten of us who all did it together had the same experience.

                    Your tastes will change and even some that just seem awful the first time could become your favorites later on.

                    Buysnus and Snuscentral offer a mix of ten cans of either loose or portion. You don't know what you are getting but it is a very low cost way to try many different kinds.

                    Good luck and just keep trying different kinds until you end up with the ones that work for you.

                    With cigs I always bought the same brand. With snus it is different brands and flavors...killer snus like Extreme or 06 a few times a day and other snus the rest of the time.

                    Just be sure to always have snus around ...you and your lungs deserve it!
