That does sound pretty good, I hope they roll it out again this year.
What flavour snus would you like to see that isn't currently made?

Pioneer is very good but it's definitely not plain. They use a bergamot flavour which is quite different to general - and to my taste it does contain smoke flavour too (I have no proof of this though). The tobacco is very dark and fine ground and is a strong part of the taste though.
The only plain snus I think was Gotlands test runs of plain lös. Tre Ankare, Ettan and Prima Fint from Swedish Match come very close - but I think all have some smoke flavouring too. Kardus is very much a plain tobacco taste too but with booze on top.

Well tattooer it comes down to the fact that snus was originally made from fire-cured tobacco before they worked out that the TSNAs that give health risks come from that kind of tobacco. The flavouring is to make it taste more like it used to I suppose.
It's also a very good masking agent for the funky taste you get with just plain air cured tobacco unless it's top quality stuff - bergamot and liquorice also cover it up well!Squeezyjohn

Other than that, I also think ginger would be very interesting.
