    why are there no reviews for this? wheres xobe at?

    im a big fan of phantom blue los. i didnt think it was the kind of thing i would like, but it is very good. the windex smell that everyone describes it as having, is definitely there, and hardly exaggerated. but its somewhat pleasant for whatever reason. the taste of the snus itself isnt so much windexy. its kind of lemony, or something. im not really sure. it has a very artificial taste to it, but for what its worth i love it. the grind is great. very easy to handbake, holds up well in the lip. 8.5 out of 10.

      I personally can not get past the Windex-like smell. Couldn't even put it in my mouth.

          Not bad at all. In fact, it's really pretty good. Flavor-wise, I'm picking up a lemon or citrus taste, with hints of smoke and sweet spices. There is something a little artificial about the flavor, but not unpleasantly so. Has a decent nic kick, too. The bargain price doesn't hurt, either.

              I just got this again and I like it. A lot more than the first time. I am glad I am revisiting los I did not like....

              Funny that taste changing...it really happens.

              I don't even smell Windex this time around. I get the lemony sweet herbal thing going on.

              Not an all day los for me but a good tin to throw in a rotation.

                I held the can in my hand. I stared at it. I prepared myself. Okay. 1. 2. 3. I opened the can. Wait...wait, what? No Windex smell? I closed the lid and looked at the can again to make sure I was holding the right can. Yep. Phantom Blue lös. This is it. So I opened it back up and took a big smell again. Wow, this actually smells good! A light smell of juniper berry, a slight flowery aroma. The best way I can describe the aroma of this is "gentle". It has a very sweet smell. I popped in my new best friend, Mr. Icetool, and made a perfectly formed pris, and inserted under my lip.

                Okay, V2. You have redeemed yourself.

                From start to finish, this is a great snus. What's very interesting about this is that the aroma is that of juniper, but the flavor is something completely different and unexpected. It has a very mild, sweet lemon taste. Sweet...lemon...oxymoron? I don't know how they did it. But I'm not complaining, it's a beautiful thing. The tobacco flavor is quite mild, and married very well to the sweet lemon taste, with a mild hint of salt. From the beginning to the end, the flavor of this snus matures and gets better with each passing moment. The longer you have it in, you'll notice subtle hints of juniper coming into play, but they are very mild, and in the background. They mix quite well with the lemon taste.

                  Been using this a bit over the last few days. It's OK, there's nothing wrong with it, but nothing particularly remarkable about it either. Been using it with an icetool, so it takes a while for the flavour to come through as a result, but it holds together better in the mouth.

                  I think I'd need to use it exclusively for a week or so to really get familiar with the flavours, but as I'm mixing it up with some quite distinctive tasting portions, it's just coming across a bit bland at times.

                  Not decided whether I'd buy it again, but I'm not ruling it out yet.
