Ettan Kardus on SnusAuction.com

[lxskllr]

Yeah its unclear to me from the description. The package is called kardus but could be 5 cans ettan dumped in there.

It's made in a small museum in Sweden. It actually isn't Ettan, they're just using the name. Hard to say what the snus is actually like, but I'm sure it's unique. I'm also sure it's good, as I doubt Swedish Match would allow the Ettan name to be used on a substandard product.

Interesting thanks. If anyone has tried it please let us know what its like. I'd hate to spend that kind of money on a box of ordinary-ish snus.

So we can get it in sweden and we're about to watch someone spend like 150-200 bucks on it?

How much is a flight to Sweden?

I may not be understanding this right...from a Swedish friend I sent the museum link to.

From his read of the site the snus is Ettan snus in larger size retro packaging that hasn't been used in a long time.

This raises money for the museum so it is for a good cause.

Can someone confirm this?

At first I thought it was a different snus...

I dunno. This link says they make Ettan, and another brand, Puck at the shop. I don't think it's regular Ettan, but I guess we'll have to wait until someone tries it...

Edit:

This is hand made by a 80-year old lady at the museum and I know she got quite the shock when Swedish Match asked for a few 100 of these to be made. They ended up getting 40 for online sale in the end;-) We're getting 10 of these (I'm guessing the other main online retailers also get 10 each or something - BuySnus, SwedishSnus and SnusWorldWide).

Kudo's to Northerner. They get a very special snus and they make a fun promotion out of it and give it away. Buysnus gets this snus and sticks it up for auction to the highest bidder.

Buysnus made 10 available for purchase northerner only 2 for chance only.

I still don't know what's hand made by this museum lady the packaging or what?

I just hope she washed her hands after using the restroom.

Can you get this in Swedish in shops ?

The tobacco seems to be cultivated right there at the museum, so I doubt that it is exactly the same as regular Ettan.

Here is a pic of the lady hard at work.

Nicely done ;-)

She's very passionate about it

Where did you get the pic though ?? It looks like the old lady is making cigars... there's a cigar stand on her desk...

Ok I finally looked at the museum's website:
http://www.tobaksochtandsticksmuseum.se/en/

They do grow tobacco there but doesn't seem like very much from the photos. It does say the old lady packages snus and rolls cigarillos. The museum is funded by Swedish Match. I going to stay skeptical about what snus is actually in those packages until I actually find out. So far I have read or seen nothing that says the snus that is packaged is actually made at the museum. I'm hoping it really is something special about the snus and not just the packaging, but it could just be 5 cans of Ettan dumped in that box.

Bottom line: What matter's is the taste of it...
The fact that the old lady packs them nicely will only add more 'flavor' to the kardus... knowing it's made in the museum with passion ... :-)
Hoping it's not the same thing as Ettan... as I am planning to get one of these...
Someone from Sweden said above that they're on sale in stores ...
