    The Coffee Supreme is well... Supreme! It to me is way better than the Offroad C/V and not as sweet, It has more of a coffee with cream flavor and with a coffee bean aroma... This one is still slightly sweet, But way less than the C/V.... Coffee Supreme is the best coffee flavored snus ever made... This is a winner!

    I really like the slim fit and the 12mg nic hit is just what I was wanting.... Love .... Love... Love... Them

    Side Note: These are the most moist snus I have ever seen or had.... Almost dripping wet....

      Thunder Chrome Coffee

      My everyday snus is Thunder Frosted long+, so I ordered a few of the Chrome series. I finished a can of Coffee Supreme and it is something I won't order again. It has a very strong taste that somewhat tastes like black coffee but there is something else that doesn't taste very good, can't ID it, towards the end of the can it turned my stomach. Anyone else try this?

      Have not tried Coola yet.

        Have not yet received my Thunder Coffee but using the Thunder Coola is like riding a roller-coaster...

        Sometimes the taste is uP and at other times it is DOwn...

        Use them now straight from the freezer and that seems to have leveled them off.

            I ordered a roll of this on blind faith in my love for V2. I have had several of their previous coffee varieties and loved them all. My roll should be here tomorrow (add a day or two to actually get to the barracks mailroom). Will let ya know what i find.

                feelin' the Thunder??

                I hate being contrary to the general consensus but so far I'm underwhelmed with the Thunder Chrome ES Coffee Supreme Long + ... but then again I'm only on my second portion.

                Jagmanss is correct:
                These are the most moist snus I have ever seen or had.... Almost dripping wet....
                These things are so moist that fluffing them up, like I do with all other portions, just leaves a sticky mess on the fingers.

                The first portion I had was 'straight-up' -- by itself. The runoff was incredible and not in a good way ... this was way more than a casual drip ... and gave my throat a burning sensation with a very bitter taste. I then reached for my Irish Cream coffee and that got rid of the bitterness. After about 5 minutes the flavor settled in and the coffee taste was supreme; by then the portion itself was more like a regular portion moisture-wise.

                After about 40 minutes I decided to try again. Straight from the can this time with no attempt at fluffing AND GUESS WHAT --- déjà vu all over again!!

                This has got to be the portion equivalent of a lös mudslide!

                I'm gonna pull a couple o' portions and let them dry out a little overnight to see what happens; hopefully I'll get a better feel for them tomorrow. Being a coffee fanatic, I really want to like these.




                Now... do I dare try the Chocomint? Hmmm. Maybe later tonight ... or tomorrow ... or the next couple days.

                  yeah seems all the chrome line are super moist as for the fluffing i hold one end and shake the sh*t out of it (which helps air dry it abit too) then even out the portion.

                  I like this snus . dunno for how long but it kinda reminds me of ettan in a way .. i find it more chocolaty/cocoa tasting than coffee .. maybe a starbux mocha frappe?

                    I only have a short exp. with Thunder products, but can say cans of the same products can be very different in consistency.

                    "Ripley'sSNUSON believe it or not" my Coffee Supreme portions are are not dripping, as some Thunder minis and long+ have been in the past...These are moist, but not dripping wet, this can is also the first Thunder product I've bought that the portions are not all jammed up to one side....the snus is evenly distributed in the portion, nice fluffy bag.

                    I really like this snus, but I really like all of V2's products

                        I agree that "cans of the same [Thunder] products can be very different in consistency."

                        Wish my first can's condition were like yours, Duff... but, alas,
                        • snus unevenly distributed in the portions
                        • portions were all jammed up to one side
                        • a big moist lump in the can
                        • very un-fluffy

                        Never had a problem with the Thunder Original Mini+ (until my last 9 cans became waterlogged in my thawed freezer during the Hurricane Irene power outage -- stupidly didn't have them vacuum sealed)... they were also one of my top daily choices.

                        I can only hope my remaining Coffee Supreme cans are not duplicates of my first can!!

                          I hope not either Snussgetter, def. interested to see if this is only one said can, or entire batch....will push for the former.

                            one of V2's tasters repeatedly mentioned that he has to add a few drops of coffee to his daily allotment of regular coffe/vanilla every morning to suit his taste. I suppose that its possible that they might have taken his advice. maybe not. who knows.


                            I love how moist the chrome coffee portions are.









                            lmao sorry bout that snusgetter
                            Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





                            I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

                              Received a roll of Thunder Frosted that was VERY WET when they first came out with it. Put the roll in the freezer... six months later, upon defrost, the portions were normal.

                                Now I'm feelin' the Thunder..

                                What a great way to start today!!

                                I left out 2 portions of the Thunder Chrome ES Coffee Supreme Long+ overnight and that made a world of difference! They ended up a little too dry so I replaced the second one to the can of saturated bags and will try that one a little later (hopefully before it reabsorbs too much of the moisture). I will next empty the can onto some parchment paper and allow them to dry for 2-3 hours, keeping close tabs on them so they don't over-dry.

                                Even without the Irish Cream coffee, this drier portion really hit the spot; the combination, though, is pure nirvana.



                                Now I can pretty much agree with Jag and the other fans of Thunder's Coffee Supreme..

                                Note to V2: Great product ... it's a shame you had an equipment malfunction that tried drowning the 'teabags' of coffee.......... it was only a malfunction, right?
