    I'm all out!...

    one week until I have more phantom (classic and blue). I have plenty of Grov and Cranberry, but I have a serious addiction to the Phantom line these days. I think V2 has found a way of infusing crack-cocaine into this stuff... I feel all twitchy now that I dont have it.

    In other news... Someone robbed my package that I sent to Subtilo. Apparently American Dip is a hot item. He got an empty envelope with nothing left inside. They even took the o-rings I sent for his icetool.

    BASTARDS! :evil:

    Because of you, I finally ordered some Phantom Blue. Not sure which I fear more, that it will suck as much as the regular Phantom, or I will become as addicted as you. either way, i am blaming you. :twisted:

      I wish I could have become addicted to Phantom Blue - that's some cheap snus! It was pretty good, but it just doesn't replace my GR#2. I'll be ordering it again sometime soon though. Well, I guess it won't be too soon, I ordered some last Friday to get the stash back to normal, but then I saw the free shipping this week so I ordered another $50 worth so now I should be flush for a long time to come . Not a problem I mind having though.

        That sucks about the package robbery.

        Im am reluctant however to try phantom because havent heard too many good things about it but then again who knows.

        Just like offroad, i wanted to order some of the icemint snus and then i read about how many people actually want to vomit after using offroad.

          Try the Phantom Blue lös. I've hated every V2 tobacco I've tried, Phantom Classic portions included, but the Blue isn't too bad. It's a good summer snus. Lots of synthetic flavor, but not a bad flavor. For $2 you cant go wrong.

          Btw Xob, my buddy at work has really been digging the Phantom Blue. I take several cans of top tier snus to work with me every day, but he's been taking the Phantom Blue more than anything else :^D

            I was intrigued by the Phantom Blue postings so I bought a can of portions thinking it might be like Gotesborg Rape, but its not. I guess I am finding what I like. I have a can of Phantom I will send to anyone who wants it. I guess I should try the LD blue and if I don't like it, send it to someone too or.... I will just dispose of them.

            I also tried the Nick and Johnny East and I don't mind it. It tastes to me a bit like the Camel Spice. I don't prefer it though.

            I also tried my Skruf Stark. It has an immediate strong hit. Too strong. I don't like it. Later this week I am getting some Knox. I hope its not as strong as the Skruf Stark. I don't need any more punishment.

            I tried the Gotelands Grey and its OK... but I am realizing I don't need the flavoring. Yellow should come in later this week. I want to give that a try.

            What I like is Grov, Ettan, Gotesborg, Roda Lacket, mellower snus. General is ok too.

              Despite my strong dislike for the Phantom classic portions and a fear of going thru the same experience with the blue portions, I actually kinda liked Phantom blue. The only thing I really didn't care for was the awful smell it left on my fingers.

                Yeah, it does leave a pretty funky smell on the fingers. In my opinion, it is nowhere near as funky as the scent left behind after hand-baking some gotlands yellow :?

                  Yet another example of how subjective taste can be. I got a tin of Phantom Blue as a buysnus freebie, and the only thing I got addicted to was making sure I choose either their fountain pen or some other bonus in the future!

                  But to each their own. Enjoy!

                        OK, so I have had the Blue open for about 4 days. I have another one in right now. I just don't get the love affair.

                        I mean, it's not horrible or anything, but the flavor is very one dimensional, and just "fake". I have a hard time putting my finger on it. It's sweet sort of, but I'm not sure it is a flavor that I actually like.

                        I have another tin in the freezer. PM me with your address, and I will drop it in the mail for you. Free, no strings attached. It should go to a good home and I know you will give it the love it deserves. Lord knows most people probably wouldn't :twisted:

                          If you absolutely MUST unload it, I will not turn it down. Toss in a couple of elixyr portions. I may wind up loving them with my unique taste preferances :lol:
