    [URGENT] Help me! which one should i order?

    Hy guys!
    I'm running out of snus and I HAVE to order some ASAP!

    I really love strong loose snus and I've already tried (among this "quality")
    Odens Extra Stark Original, Loose
    Skruf Xtra Strong Loose
    Thunder Extra Stark, Loose
    Lucky Strike, Loose
    Thunder Frosted, Strong Loose
    Odens Extra Stark Original
    Thunder Extra Stark winter, Loose

    It depends on the period, but i'd say my favorites are: Thunder Frosted and Odens Extra Stark Original.

    I wanna order kinda 40 cans and spend the less it's possible.

    So my doubt is: should I order 4 different rolls (spending about 260€) or get 40 cans (+10 free) of General Ekstra Sterk, Loose at about 230€?

    I think to order the second one but I never tried General Ekstra Sterk and i dunno if his nicotine is really high. I read some review but i couldn't get if it's really strong as the others or a little less.

    Thank you!!

    enrico, Welcome to snuson...

    I would say it depends on whether you want a variety of the strong los you already know you like or go on blind faith and order the General Extra Sterk Los and maybe not like it, But I think you will,Most do. I can tell you I have the General Extra Sterk Los and love it and it's flavor and the nicotine does hit strong and hard at 15 mg/g and to me at times even stronger than Skruf Xtra Strong Loose another one of my favorite loose. To me the General ES Los has almost a buttery flavor that develops and when I take A pris out I savor what is left of the flavor before putting something new in. The flavor profile of the Loose is to me way different than the portions and prefer it better... I think if you buy it at that price and love it you will have plenty to last for a while and could even hook me up if you don't.lol. But I'm sure you will.. just don't forget the guy who told you to go for it...

    Here is what I found that someone said about The General Extra Sterk Los and pretty much what I think also...


    On a scale of 1-10, this is about a 17!. While I don't use los much, this snus has become one of my absolute favorites. It bakes easily. It tastes so very good. It is pure General. Just in case you don't know what that means, it means you should stop reading and go buy some right now. It has a good salty citrus tobacco flavor. I am an ex-smoker so the nic hit is great. However, a word for would-be snusers and those not used to strong snus: even as an ex-smoker I found the nic hit to be strong (and it lasts, too!). It isn't unbearable or unpleasant, but if you aren't used to it, General ES will manhandle you and call you a sissy. It is, imho, simply one of the best out there. Try it!

    Now With all of this said.. Why don't you just order 4 different rolls and make one of the rolls General Extra Sterk los this way you will know next time that you like it.. 4 rolls of something you don't know if you like is very risky and personally I wouldn't unless I tried it..

      Welcome to the forum.
      I would order a variety unless you have a favorite.
      I would never order four rolls of a single variety of a snus that I have never tried. That's a lot of snus to be stuck with if you don't like it.

        General ES loose is a great tasting snus with a very solid nicotine hit that lasts a long time. You should try it for sure. But Justin is right, never get a lot of snus you've never tried unless you plan on trading with someone or selling most of it. Variety is the way to go especially if you are new to snus. Even after years of snusing your tastes can change a lot and often.

          Welcome to SnusOn!

          I'm with the others that express hesitation at buying 4 rolls of snus untasted. Also, with the variety, you have something for different moods. Personally, I'd have a hard time using the same snus every time. I much prefer changing it up. I seldom use the same snus twice in a row.

            If I was ordering 4 rolls, I would probably order 3 of GES los and 10 cans of various portion snus. General Ekstra Sterk Los is the best snus I have ever had. I did order a roll without ever trying it, based on liking General Los a lot, but 4 rolls of untasted snus seems like a huge gamble.

                actually italy.. i got started few months ago in US with american shitty snus but now i do love the "original" one...

                i like risky stuff, so i ordered 40 + 10 General .. and 10 Thunder Frosted winter

                btw i agree about changing tastes, for example i thought Thunder Frosted is the ONE, i got in the middle east for a week (without using snus) and once back I started to prefer Odens Extra Stark.

                Grazie for the suggestions!

                  OK I guys.. here it's my response.

                  it tastes really good and I really like the consistency..
                  I'd say that it's not so strong as the others extra strong snus though... maybe 15% less. But it's not a problem cuz I can get 20% more in my mouth!
