    Do all V2 snus' suck? or just thunder?

    OK I don't want to get flamed as this is purely subjective and my opinion only. I started snus with the thunder line and quit smoking with it but their quality control is effing terrible for these products! Its plain to see why they are sold for cheap! How about their other two brands; phantom and off-road? I know you get what you pay for but I'm an unemployed broke ass and need some cheaper alternatives to "the good stuff". Is it possible to get a good snus off of the aforementioned products? Thanks for any help!

      Thunder Frosted is all I snus. If that weren't an option, it would be thunder original. Good day to you sir!


      No but really, what is it you don't like about it? The flavor? The fact they are sometimes moist, sometimes dry, or come in broken portions? Other than that Thunder is the best line of snus imo. But I am definately in the minority on that one. Phantom is completely different imo, higher quality if you ask me. Very good. Off-road is terrible, it's like generic snus.

        I've never had an issue with the Thunder line. Always moist, and never had broken portions.

          To me Thunder is like David Letterman. Everyone seems to love it but no matter how many times I have tried it, I just don't see it. Can't put my finger on why though, just don't like it. I think Gotlandsnus is the best. Always consistent and have never gotten a broken portion. Love the nic hit. I chain it all day and have no feelings that I am getting too much nic.

              V2 is actually one of the best snus out there.

                  Inconsistency can be resolved and V2 does put the effort in to customer concerns. My only complaint is that the offroad and phantom los tobacco seems a little too hard and a too clay like. It lacks the sponge and airiness that I like in SM los and also in the THUNDER los brands.

                    I have a long history of disliking V2 portions. I gave up on those long ago. The lös is pretty decent, and an interesting diversion from Swedish snus. The Danes do things a bit different, and while I prefer Swedish, Danish snus is nice to mix in. I especially like the licorice. I'm currently using a tin of Tobacco Top from a couple years ago that never made it to full time production. It should. It's a really good snus that's on the plainer side. We need more plain style snuses.

                      I am not a portion guy but the phantom los offerings are all worth the buy.............the Brown and Blue are in my regular rotation.
                      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

                        I dislike pretty much all of V2 products except Thunder Frosted which stands out as a great snus. Give it a go.

                        Phantom brown los is good.

                          not all of the v2 products suck. I kind of like a few of them. However, I can accurately confirm that their last 2 attempts to produce a coffee flavored snus fall all too short of the original coffee/vanilla. Of all the flavors that a snus can be..... I would have to imagine a decent coffee flavor with or without hints of vanilla or chocolate would/could be a most popular flavor. Hell almost everybody likes coffee. For whatever reason it seems like none of the snus makers are interested. Coffee and tobacco go so well together.

                          The thunder chrome coffee has a decent [not great] flavor but the nic is too high for some of us. The taste lacks the smoothness of C/V.

                          The OR coffee supreme's flavor is very short lived, bitter and the burn takes forever to leave your mouth after you remove the portion. Also lacks the smoothness of the C/V.

                          The OR coffee vanilla is a great combo and some of the batches were great.....perfect even. But apparently v2 isn't interested in making it anymore. I've done all I can do to promote V2 on the forums and contact them personally to beg them to at least come out with a limited edition C/V so those of us that love it can stock up. V2 responded by making the thunder chrome coffee and the OR coffee supreme......both of which fall far short of even the worst batch of the original OR C/V.

                          and yes.......I should quit my bitchin and make my own but the snusx bucket is not available to the US. I know for a fact that I speak for alot of people in regards to a coffee snus. The polls here on the forums have shown it. I just don't get it. A good C/V or even a coffee/chocolate could appeal to the masses....and alot of women too.





                          kill me now
                          Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





                          I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.
