Awesome snus.

Everything is good in it.

Baking: Atleast the best.
Taste: Absolutely amazing.
Nicotine: Could be higher.

I agree that baking this one is very easy if not the easiest. If you dont have a icetool just take a pinch and squish it in your palm and pop it in.
There is a slightly sweet unique taste which I have not experienced in any other snus. I think it is FIG but not sure.
Although it has this light sweet note the straight tobacco taste is just enough to overpower it. Hard to explain without trying it but the flavors really balance themselves but lean towards the tobacco. I was a Camel smoker and I always liked the Turkish Blend for it's slight sweetness. This must also explain why I like this old recipe.

This is a great los......

Bakes perfectly, tastes GREAT - fruity, but strong too.

The only downside is that as it's so fine, it seems to slide quite easily.

Enjoyable snus. Just about as advised: easy to bake, and a bit tough to keep in one piece, both due to the very fine grind. Tasty combination of tobacco and fruity flavors. Very comfortable. Prone to sliding if not carefully managed.

This is my favorite los snus.

Much tighter, nicer pris than i get from General Lös, I can see how being a regular lös user might happen now. 60-90 min with minimal drip, no mudslide and good flavor.

just got my five pack of this. I like how it packs. I can just bake a pris no problem ... good thing because I seem to have misplaced my ice tool and with this, I don't seem to need it. I can make portions any size I want which is good as right now I am needing to make small ones and its very easy. The snus is mild and nothing nasty about it at all.

Well this is fu**ing strange. I don't think I like this one. And I LOVE Roda Lacket portions. WTF?! It does bake SUPER easy, but the stuff just mudslides like no other, which really pisses me off, and the flavor just doesn't seem as good as the portions. Bought two cans of it, I'll try to plow through the first, but the other I have thrown on the exchange.

I hardly ever use Los anyways, but when I do, I prefer Grov.

Maybe I'm just strange.... :roll:

my take on Röda Lacket: for a beginner trying loose snus, this would be my number one choice. minimal baking is required; a firm pinch right out of the can will usually do the trick. I know some have stated that they have had problems with this snus breaking apart and sliding due to the nature of the grind, but I've had the opposite experience. Maybe I tend to keep my upper lip tense, but this stuff always seems to stay put. This, to me, is a sweet loose snus; also making a palatable choice for a beginner. Very moist, very dense, very beginner friendly.

CONS: I find it to be too sweet for my taste. Once it has been in the lip long enough to start releasing flavor, it has a fairly strong fruity sweetness. Really though, unless you've acclimated yourself to more robust, pure tobacco snus such as Ettan and General, I doubt you'd notice. It not an artificial sweet, but rather a more natural sweet (much like fig, as someone mentioned above) but still too sweet for yours truly. Also, while I like the fine grind, the consistency of Röda Lacket is very clay-like. A bit too dense in my opinion. And the nicotine seems to be quite low in this one. I managed to make it through a few cans of this, and low nicotine seemed to be a constant variable.

all in all though, it would still be my #1 choice for introducing someone to loose snus.

i really enjoy this los.

i find it bakes easy and using a prismaster, it packs nice.

also having the RL white portions...i find this one has a richer better flavor....not strong..very nice and subtle dried raisin/date/fig type taste...a hint of sweet and it does compliment the great tobacco taste.

[MojoQuestor]

This is a good one, fruity in a dark way, subtle as asidrave says, and between the flavor and the fine grind it's a silky smooth experience. Even small amounts are very pleasurable; in fact, this is one snus I don't enjoy as much with a large pris. Again, this probably has to do with the grind.

My favorite loose snus to date.

Really clean tasting tobacco with just a hint of sweetness. The only snus I enjoyed drinking with fruit juice. Easy to bake and the pris last for over an hour. Only downside to this wonderful tasting snus is the cardboard tin. I've been spoiled with Phantom's plastic tin.

I noticed that you will get a mudslide if not packed too well, but from what I noticed, I enjoy an occasional mudslide from this one. Almost edible stuff here.

Roda Lacket took the #1 slot from Phantom's Blue loose. Can it get any better than this? :wink:

[Zanaspus]

The taste of this is spectacular; everything I'd want in a los. However, I could never bring myself to make it "my" los because of the grind. It is fine enough that it is a mudslide waiting to happen. When others say mudslide, I take it to mean that their pris starts to fray and crumble at the end. This just turns to mud and washes away. A real shame too given the taste.

I like a grind along the lines of Grov.

RL was my first loose and I discovered that pris size was critical. To my newbie lip a pris just a little too large was a disaster. Harsh, acrid, spit-it-out-right-now awful. Scaled back to about half the original try and abundant success. Love the taste now but I'm with those who like a bit coarser grind like Grov. Even the grind of Ettan seems less ultra-fine than Roda.
