I don't normally use Los, but I got some from our dear GN and it is indeed the BEST. SNUS. EVER. If the portions are even half as moist and delicious this will become my new go to, everyday snus.

Now it is 11,59 in Sweden and i read this Snusdog ----------thank youOriginally posted by Snusdog View PostI'm reading Roo's review and the whole time I'm thinking..............breathe bro breathe..................take a breath..................
That said.................. Roo is right on...............and his enthusiasm is completely merited
And GN if you are reading this.................. this is the biggest compliment I can give....................I have NEVER said this about any other snus..............ever.............
I could use this snus exclusively and not miss a beat.....................If I had to have one..........and only one snus.............it would be Extreme. Hands down.....It is that good!
Most of the time when I finish up a tin I am ready to move on to the next brand................I just finished up my tin of Extreme...........and all I want to do is open up another.
Like others have said the flavor is deep with a hint of green apple (not candy or artificial apple but a subtle and natural tartness). The flavor is bold and thus compatible with smaller pris sizes
The grind is just right and keeps its shape (even with smaller prises). Lower lip it............... and it behaves very closely to dip.
The nic is strong but not daunting and a smaller pris size makes it manageable as well as very economical (one can just lasted me 5 days.....chain snusing and using nothing else).
So.............
Stop reading this and go buy some..........buy butt loads................make the GN ladies love you and want you.................

GN,
One thing I keep reading in this and other threads is that folks say they would not have tried Extreme because of the Nicotine level..............Once they try it they love it and manage the nic level with pris size...............However, I'm sure there are people who will not read the reviews here and who will just never try it because they are afraid of the 22mg..............Have you considered releasing an Extreme Lite..............the same flavor but regular Nicotine strength..............It might cover a share of the market 22mg Extreme will miss.
Give the girls my loveWhen it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengersComment

Received my EXTREME Loose yesterday....Thank you so much GN for sending these to me....The taste is Awesome..... I LOVE IT!!! I would have to echo what everyone else has said..... Its spicy with peppery notes with much the same earthy, tobacco taste as pioneer, which is what I love about it..... Others here have put it in better words than I could, I think roo said it best.... I know what I like and what I don't. I'm a Sterk and Extra Sterk Los fan, I Love Skruf Xtra Stark Los, General Extra Sterk Los and this just made my #1 spot..... I can't seem to stop using it and since I can make any size pris i want with my Icetool, I can control my nicotine intake.... LOVE IT!!! GN! Like Roo said..... You've made a masterpiece. Thank You... Simply Extreme!Comment

Tried this today just a small hillbilly pinch in the upper lip. Loved it kept it in about a hour flavor and nic lasted throughout. Loved the peppery taste. A must buy on my next order.Comment

Just finished up my review...
I recently did a review for Oden's Extreme (Portion), the world's strongest Swedish Snus. I've really been digging this stuff. I think I've gone through about 4 or 5 cans of it in the past few weeks - it's pretty fabulous. And yes, I just said fabulous. I think what I like most about this is that it doesn't have a lot of fancy stuff going on in the taste department. It's really simple. Just a bold, spicy tobacco taste. That's something that most manufacturers forget about - that we, as tobacco consumers, like that. Sure, citrus is good, as is a variety of other flavors, but in the end it seems more of us deviate from the path of flavored tobacco and end up with bare bones, pure and simple, down and dirty, raw and gritty tobacco.
s a lossnus, Oden's Extreme is great. It's fluffy, moist, extremely easy to handbake (which is something I like in a lossnus). Sure, I love my Icetool, but sometimes it's fun just to reach in, pack a prilla together, and throw it in your lip. The taste of Oden's Extreme Los is much like it's portion counterpart. A pure tobacco base with a spicy/zesty peppery overtone, the familiar salt balance tying everything together - and a killer nicotine hit. I made a nice little snusball just to check it out for the first time and it hit me like a freight train. This is not for the weak! If you're used to making a massive prilla of GES or something of the like - don't do it with this! Start small, because it packs quite a punch! I had to make my prilla smaller the second time around because I wanted to enjoy the taste of Oden's Extreme longer. It is truly something to be appreciated. Big ups to GN Tobacco for making something that snus users have long been asking for.Comment

thanks Bro

Boy it sure seems that this stuff could be a very economical proposition. If one could get a reasonable nic hit with the equivalent of a 1 click prilla then there might well be 50 or 60 such servings in one can--even with the occasional two or three clicker to combat a severe cig craving.Comment

What a lovely day. The Royals have just married, spring is in full swing and it is weekend.
Today I will be reviewing ODEN'S EXTREME Loose snus, the strongest snus on the market.
Long gone are the days when Swedish snus consumers had it easy. "Ettan eller General" (Ettan or General)? The question of what brand to choose used to be as simple as that for well over a century. Then in late 1990s and especially in 2000s a number of smaller producers bravely brought new brands of snus and new trends on the market. Skruf Snus AB revolutionized the market in 2003 when it introduced Skruf Stark, snus with a higher than usual nicotine content. This triggered an ever accelerating nicotine race.
In early April 2011 GN Tobacco announced the launch of Oden's EXTREME. With 22 mg of nicotine per 1 gr of snus by far the strongest snus to date and I had the honor to be among the first hundred of people to try it.
This is the most difficult review for me to write on a snus as the opinions I have got about this product are mixed. First, it needs to be said that Oden's Extreme is a snus of extremely high quality. However, its flavor composition and unusual strength make it so different from other snuses that I can hardly call it Swedish. This is a snus for the world and it certainly has a market but if you are snus traditionalist like me be warned, this product may put you off.
Alright. I tried this snus at 10 pm last night. For more accuracy I abstained from any snus from 8 pm so I really wanted a snus at the time I did my first Oden's Extreme.
Spicy smell of peppers escaped as i opened the can. I was stunned. I am a heavy Tabasco aficionado and must admit I handle peppers very well and i liked what I was smelling but do I look for Tabasco in a snus? Hmm, not really.
I spent the next minute or so smelling the can contents from different angles trying to figure out what peppers it reminds me of. Tabasco, chilly? Something Mexinan probably.
I popped a pris of my usual size (which is 2 icetool marks) in. In the first 5 minutes nothing seemed to be happening. I noticed my heart rate had increased. What I got next was (believe it or not) sexual arousal. I attribute this to natural pepper oils tobacco in this snus in blended with. Peppers make natural aphrodisiacs and they carry these properties on into a snus as well.
So far so good. Flavor kept coming out steadily and I really liked how it tastes.
I cannot complain this snus lacks in nicotine department. It so strong I could not keep the pris in for one hour, my usual loose session. I got hit by Extreme. Really, really hard. I went to bed shortly afterwards. I am not sure whether it was nicotine poisoning or the calming effect of an extreme overdose but I slept very well last night and longer than usual. I woke up feeling energetic and good. Something was missing though. I did not think of snus. When I wake up in the morning my first thought is usually one of a snus. Not today. My entire body was still so saturated with nicotine it did not crave any more. My morning ritual was ruined.
I don't know when I will use EXTREME next. Certainly not today as I am still recovering and probably not yet tomorrow. This is going to be my once in a while snus. i'll keep it in my supply as something to amaze friends with and will snus a pinch of it myself once or twice a week perhaps but there is no way Oden's Extreme can take over my rotation
As far as snus&drink pairing is concerned this snus should pair well with Tequila and Vodka, because of its spicy peppery flavor
Oden's new EXTREME is a great high quality snus and it can be enjoyed but it takes time before you learn how to best handle it.
ODEN'S NEW EXTREME. Enjoy responsibly.Comment
