    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.

          Yea, I like them both, but the Jaks Classic is close enough for my (somewhat rare)portion fix. The one I was debating was the Metropol. Jaks mint is very good, but the Metropol was completely without sweetness, and the tin was cool looking, that's why I decided to pluck that from the grave.

            Triumph Mint
            General Maxi
            Elixyr Power Energy

            These are the three that I was bummed about. I can't really think of 5. I mean, there's products in the past I would have loved to have tried, but these are three I personally tried and liked.

                  Rallarsnus (Swedish Match Los - tasted of coffee)
                  Nick & Johnny Los
                  Claq Qui
                  Gotlands Yellow Portions
                  Gotlands Yellow Los

                  The first two in my list were a disaster. Ordered a can of each - loved both of them and the next time I looked - I couldn't get them.

                  I hate it when companies discontinue long standing brands of things with a personal taste and/or smell. I could talk for days lamenting Walker's Beef & Onion crisps or the original Body Shop Mostly Men aftershaves. Hate it.

                    I never had Rallersnus, but always wanted to try it. Do you remember when it left the market?

                      Must admit I don't recall that one. Would be interesting to know when that was around.

                          I started snusing at the very end of 2007 so it must have been then. I think the can was getting close to it's expiry then although I didn't really know what snus should be like then anyway and loved the taste nonetheless.

                          It was a normal strength los with quite a course grind. A bit like a subtle coffe flavoured Ettan los with lots of natural tobacco taste. I don't think it came in portions at all.

                          Swedish Match dropped lots of their other "old mens" los varieties around the same time. Stjarnsnus, Svenskt Exportsnus, Morkbrunkt Snus - bit of a cull really

                            Crap! Missed it due to my own negligence. I started snusing in Aug 07, but didn't really start los until Jan 08. I've seen all the old tins, but not for sale :^(
