    Well I finally dove in and bought some after reading all the treads about getting it into Canada........................I'm wondering why I took so long. I got 4 cans, ettan, grov, granit and offroad frosted. Grov is my fav so far, ettan is second. The granit has a different spice to it, in the freezer it go's for now. The offroad needs more spearmint added, I'm going to get some spearmint candy flavoring and add some till I get a nice strong spearmint flavor, it's too minty right out of the tin.

    I have offroad coola, odens cinnamon, probe and offroad wintergreen on order and I should see it in a weeks time. Up here in Canada a roll of 5 34g tins cost me $80, 4 tins of snus cost me $20 to the door without the tax man getting into it, so I'm saving $60 and gaining 10g.

    Any dippers thinking of switching, just do it you will not regret it.

      I haven't tried Grov since my first order but I really like it. It will be on my next order. Glad you are enjoying snus. I was a Copenhagen dipper for 13 years and haven't looked back.

        Start with this, as it tastes similar to Copenhagen. Portioned varieties are available as well.

          Guys,

          just wait till Gotlands releases their plain los (I think we are close to seeing it happen)

          The flavor is fantastic and it is probably is the best handling snus I have run across.

          It will be very x-dipper friendly.

          Once it is out.................you will understand why we raised so much hell to get it.


          Oh and Plumbers crack................thanks for the update....................glad you are liking it

              PC, fellow ontarian snuser
              Our flavour profiles are very alike. My go to dip is kodiak green and cope or copenhagen straight. However, you will see that snus is alot more enjoyable most of the time.

              Snusdog had it right on, dip and snus are two completely different products, dont try to chase dip in snus.
              Even though i hated fruity dips, i seem to love fruity snuses. But if you really enjoy r that smokey, tobacco taste, i can only recommend ettan and grovsnus. N&J has a good tobacco taste too.

              Also remember that us canadians get the delicious treat of....
              ....


              ....

              ....
              ...


              wait for it..
              .....
              ...


              ...

              LUCKY STRIKE. It has a nice tobacco taste that is pretty wicked and may remind you of original flavoured dips, but even better.

              Anyway, let us know how it goes, also, if you ever wanna trade , let me know. I got some tasty snus and dip in my freezer. and for us ontarians, shipping is completely tax free and legal within the province.

              cheers!

                  Oh shoot I missed it I would get Jakobson's mint and wg, even if you don't like flavored dip you'll like it. Oh and I'd double the Lucky Strike suggestion. Actually just buy lucky strike.

                    Plumbers crack - I gave up a 8 year cope habit for the safer nicotine habit. I have been searching for the cope replacement for almost a year now. Anyway, a few that I found and LOVE are general Los, general ES, and nick and Johnny. People who say a snus is not like dip are right. They are 2 different products. With that being said try a few recommended brands and I'm sure you will find some to your liking. As for dip, I'm never going back since I found out about snus. As for now general Los and N & j fill the void left by copenhagen. Jer

                        I'll get a tin of Lucky on my next order. I'm more of a tabac/smokey guy but I'm going to try a tin of most of them and revisit them if the first time around didn't work for me. Since I'm only ordering in lots of 4 for now, I'll get 4 different tin each time till I find my go to/to's snus.

                        I'll definitely be up for some trades with the tins that I know I don't like. So far the Granit isn't my taste and I'm still playing with the Frosted with the spearmint oil. I might even try some other flavor oils and see what I can make.
