    This one is MUCH better than the Ice Fruit. I got a can in the mixed original sampler from getsnus. I remember seeing someplace in here where it's described as a grapefruit taste. That's pretty close to what it tastes like...there's some sourness/bitterness and a slight citrus that's actually kinda nice for some strange reason. I'm all about sweet portions normally, but I can see myself using this once in a while to break up those sweet portions.

        Just could not get into this snus. Weird orangey flavor and some other
        "medicinal" flavor notes. I must say though, its better than the IceFruit.

        3 outta 10 stars.

          This is another once in awhile. Too salty, but I love the little hints of orange I pick up. It goes great with morning coffee. Someone described it as McDonalds breakfast - coffee and oj. That is the perfect description I've heard for it. Overall, I might order a can every 6 months or so.

              I went from "meh, this is okay," to "this is really pretty good," to finally buying a roll of it the other day. It's sharp, citrusy, and has that slight bitter undertone that I think must come from the tobacco Gotlandssnus uses. It's a good kind of bitterness, and really does give this a "grapefruit" personality. That might not sound too good, but it really works. Four stars, two thumbs up, etc. It's not one I can use all day, but I can do two or three pieces in a row before I want something else.

                I really like this one. Just enough juniper not to be too widexy, just enough citrus not to be too citrusy, just enough salt not to be too salty. Pretty sure I'll always have this one about barring it "turning" on me.

                  One of my absolute favorites and with Got's Gul my favorite snus to fall asleep with.

                    It's been a while since I had this, but I found it overly salty and the portions a bit overstuffed, making then on the hard side.

                      I just tried this for the first time. I started to feel a bit strange once it really started juicing up. Does this have juniper in it? I have a slight allergic reaction to juniper. Could be in my head, let me know.

                        Yah,,, I just ordered 8 rolls of it and like it better than Ice Fruit as well but once in a while I feel like a fruit. It's not bad to order now since you can double your order,,, thats a no brainer!!!

                          I tried this in a box pass once and was not impressed but with the double your Jak's order, I got a roll.

                          I'm glad I did because it is delicious!

                            Its better than icefruit, but that's not saying much.

                            The classic has bitter, dry and citrus qualities to it that just do not appeal to me at all. If you like any of the other Gotlands portions, I would recommend it, but that is about it.

                              I really like this one and the ice fruit (minus the name). The original reminds me of Gotlands Gul.
