    Getting out of my "comfort zone"

    Hey everyone,

    I've been using snus for several years now. When I first started using snus, I was all about variety. I wanted to try everything, and as expected some of it was great, and some of it nearly made me sick (Elixyr energy snus). When I found a few that I really loved, I stuck with them. I've been using Thunder Frosted/Offroad Frosted for a great long while now. Don't get me wrong, I love Thunder Frosted & Offroad Frosted, but I feel like I'm getting a bit burnt out on mint flavours. I need a few flavours to break up the endless mint that I've known for years. I need to get out of my "snus comfort zone" and get back to trying new flavours.

    I've always been a fan of Oden's Kanel, Göte Rape', Göte Prima Fint, Thunder Frosted, Offroad Frosted, etc. I've often stuck with the Thunder (as mentioned before), and I'm looking to really expand my snus collection further than having 1 or 2 cans of a non-mint snus in my freezer.

    Would you guys mind making some recommendations? I'm not a picky guy, but I'll write a few details below on what I'm looking for. I'm not trying to be terribly lazy by asking for recommendations, I'd just like to see what others would recommend because it's been a long time since I've looked at any real variety past a couple of cans here and there. For example.. I just bought 70 cans of snus, 60 were mint flavoured...

    *Portions or Loose (doesn't matter). I think it would be great to have a recommendation for each.

    *I'd like some flavoured recommendations, but any non-flavoured recommendations would be fine as well. I'm looking for something different than Thunder Frosted. Other than that, I don't really mind what flavour is recommended.

    *ES/Regular strength portions are both fine. I like the ES for early morning, or when I have a strong craving. Regular are great through the day.

    Thanks guys,

    try going here
    http://www.snuson.com/forum/showthre...bacco-Exchange

    theres alot on post #2 . for details. I sell single tins and do alot of variety orders for newbies. Plus you get free tins
    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.

      Try many tastes that are completely different from one another!

      Some of I can think of is

      -Offroad Wintergreen
      -Offroad Cool Orange
      -Odens Burned apple
      -Odens Vanilla
      -Jakobsons Melon
      -Something salmiak
      -Catch eucalyptus

      and so forth!

      Make an order with much of different types of snus. Like one can of each and test them out. You might find something that you actually enjoy and buy more of it!

          Thunder Original is good if you like Thunder, offroad is good too. Oden's Classic or the 69 White, extreme is very good. You can never go wrong with Ettan, esp if you don't like bergamot, Phantom Brown is a good alternative to Ettan. Any Jakobson's gets my vote too as does General and Roda Laket.

              Yeah definately try the "special" flavors like Orange, Berry and Coola. They're pretty good, but don't over use the Coola(it gets a bit bland).

                I love pretty much everything that Jakobsson's makes, same with Oden's. Can't go wrong with Skruf, either.

                  I always hated black licorice as a kid but I am very impressed by GN's Odens Lakrits. It's very good. For plain tobacco taste, in my highly marginalized opinion the old Odens Extra Stark can't be beat. I also enjoy Extreme for it's peppery, spicy quality, and Skruf ES for a good kick in the arse.
