    Jakobssons Is Out!!

    http://www.buysnus.com/snusbrand/Jak...ssic_Snus.aspx

    I guess I was wrong about IceFruit, they really did make such a thing :^O

    Also check out the new Philip Morris snus. They're using Rockers old facilities. Nice tin...

    I wonder if Phillip Morris will bring this snus to the states or is it for Sweden only ?

        I really appreciate your feelings on PM snus. I guess I am gonna give them the benefit of the doubt and get a can on my next order.

          I bought a tin of the original. I'm expecting it'll be pretty good. I wouldn't discount them just because they're an American company. They're selling to the Swedish population, so it should conform to the Swedish flavor standards. Also, I highly doubt Americans do anything other than collect the profits. I imagine it's completely run by Swedes, and the only way anyone would know an American company was involved, is by the heading on the pay check.

            I guess all I am trying to say is that I am happy American companies are trying to get into the snus game. I know that the current American snus offerings (camel, et.al) are considered substandard by traditional swedish standards, but it's a start. I hope one day to walk into a 7-11 and see a beautiful snus fridge behind the counter, full of swedish and american varieties of snus. IDK, maybe it's just a pipedream.

              I'm interested in the Philip Morris product since they are associated with the old Rocker line. The Rocker Snus used a type of packaging that did not require refrigeration which I think would make the product more marketable here.

                  The history of Philip Morris in the states regarding cigarettes makes me wonder if they are going to be keeping this true to the swedish formula or adding all sorts of other nasty little things. I am biased as an ex smoker possibly.. would be nice to see the ingredients list though.

                        Aye. Buysnus customer service is second to none. Just let them know and they will make it right (will probably even toss in an extra can or 2 to make you smile... and if they send you phantom los, you can send it to me )

                          Maybe the order was to be sent in two separate packages and the first one came through today and the next will follow tomorrow.

                            And I just opened my latest package a few minutes ago. Oh well. It'd be ok to order some more after I get half done with this roll of Phantom Blue.

                              FINALLY! I've already ordered some Jakobsson's Classic and a couple of tins of Ice Fruit. Can't wait. Also went for the 1847 original portion ... if nothing else the tin seems cool!

                              I'm happy! :lol:
