    Who knows...........maybe somebody from JTI takes a look and even posts something

    One thing I did forget.............I forgot to ask about the flavor profile of Gustavus.......... I would love to hear what they offered in the past.

    Anyway if they pop in we can ask them
    thanks dog

    I'm not sure about the flavor but the portions are way different from the loose

    the loose is very similar to Skruf Loose

    and the portions are very similar to General Original Portion

      I always thought of the los as having the same general flavor profile as Kronan (though much much better)....kind of the Earl Grey flavor family
      When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

            Ok guys here is the reply that I got from JTI


            Dear

            Thank you for your inquiry at JTI.com and the kind words about our products.

            Unfortunately at this time there are no plans to distribute Gustavus and LD in the United States.

            Thank you for your comment and have a great day.

            Best regards,

            Michele Donohue

              That was similar to the reply I received from Granit.

                I quite like Gustavus loose. To me it is a snus in which bergamot flavor is pronounced the most. It does not compare to Skruf loose though but I would say it resembles General. I once ordered a roll of Gustavus, I am glad I did but not sure if I would order it again, to me it got a bit too floral in the end.

                Gustavus is sold at snus2.se and snus.de. So it is available to EU customers.

                Overall, a good nice snus!

                  Not going to make a debate about this -

                  But Gustavus is like Skruf all the way (skruf also used bergamot and rose oil by way)

                  General Loose is a down to earth "EARTHY and SALTY" snus that doesn't compare with gustavus, taste wise.
