What was you first snus EVER???

[Zimobog]

Apologies to the old timers around here if this has been done before!

Ok, so you are all dedicated snusers. What was the brand and type that you first put in yer pie hole and your thoughts were...

Roda Lacket
Northerner had finally shipped my snus. I packed one by hand (thanks, YouTube!) and fumbled a bit trying to place it in my lip. I checked the mirror. I looked like Cornelius from Planet of the Apes. I smiled. I looked like my entire grill was missing. I sat around swollowing the snus gravy for a bit. My disappointment in Northerner and an ex-forum member who ripped me off nearly ruined that first snus for me.

Roda Lacket. Too bland, but hell, you taught me to love snus. I'll never forget you!

Camel Frost. Even though Swedish is way better, I never forget what started it all for me.

Thunder frosted...gave me the hiccups. Took some getting use to for sure. Now I'm a snus junkie, and I don't like thunder anymore.

Pre-GN (Gajane) Oden's Lakrits (Liquorice) & Pre-GN (Gajane) Oden's Kanel (Cinnamon).. I tried them back to back... I have vivid memories of it too (I remember having a nasty cold at the time, and it nursed me along the way).

Camel Frost. I thought it was interesting, and warranted further exploration. My first real snus was Metropol licorice, along with 23 other snuses from the sample box(the best thing Northerner ever made. Impossible anymore :^( ). I was undecided at first. The lack of sweet, and salt was initially off-putting, but there was something I found appealing in there somewhere. I quit buying Camel, and came to love real snus. Lös came a bit later after I cached numerous rolls of portions. I still have a lot of snus from 2007 :^D

Well, if you're all going to count faux snus; then me first was Marlboro Snus. But that was very short lived, as I was soon looking for other brands for sale... Which eventually brought me to BuySnus, and then here...

The packaging was a small plastic container with resealable foil. The portions were tiny (even smaller than the Swedish standard for a mini), and the pouch material was rough. Also, when you cracked open the pouch; the consistency was identical to cigarette tobacco. Leave it to a cigarette manufacturer to **** up something as beautiful as snus, eh?

Never had the Marlboro snus. Camel and Triumph were the only American snuses I tried. Triumph was a good attempt by SM, and tolerable as far as sweet snus goes, but it was still sweet snus.

My first was a portion of Catch Eucalyptus in a van from Stavanger airport in Norway to the south coast. It burned like hell and I put it in my bottom lip by mistake.

When I bought my own ... it was Offroad Wintergreen Longcut loose - and it was disgusting - I'm very glad I gave snus another chance!

[Burnsey]

Camel Mellow and Camel Frost! They did slow the cig habit but not much. I found some SM flavors at a tobacco shop and quickly discovered that I don't like mint and hate spearmint! General op was my first go to favorite.....6 months cig free today, thank you SM.

[GoVegan]

Camel was my first fake snus. General OP was my first real snus.

[NeonMouse]

I think it was either Thunder Wintergreen or some Jakobsson... probably mint. I know the Thunder gave me hiccups too when I first tried that.

[Nuusku]

It was some lakrits lös... Offroad maybe?

[Skell18]

General and it was odd at first, had one portion and didn't smoke for the rest of the day, the rest is history.

[dman21]

Alright, if you are talking REAL Swedish snus, then my first was General Wintergreen that a local tobacco shop carried briefly. Ironically, it's still a part of my rotation.

Gotebourg Rape Los I was so careful to make the pris but it wasnt very successful. A week later i ordered tea bags off eBay
