    Green

    Got my first can of green portions today. Gotlands.

    My first impression was good. Good aroma, nice gentle faint apple taste. I sat at my desk working with a smug grin on my face.

    Then it got bitter on me. I'm not sure how long I had it in maybe an hour. When I had a sip of water it went back to great.

    Then bitter again.

    I think when I'm working or into something else I keep snus in too long. This was no record though for a portion.

    I will be enjoying these very much. Just 30 minutes a time though.

    Agreed! I was all into this flavor and aroma etc. But after half a day using nothing else, it wore thin pretty fast. I will continue to order a can here or there, but I don't think this will earn full-roll status for me the way Nick and Johnny Strong and Ettan Vit have. "Bitter Apple" seems to be the consensus for flavor comparison by we Americans. I don't taste "The lush green plants of Gotland, as stated in the company line because, A) I've never been to Gotland or anywhere near. B) I don't tend to eat lush green plants, so I'd have no frame of reference.
    A good portion snus nonetheless, but as BB suggests, moderation is the key to maximum enjoyment.

      I have a mixed opinion on this snus. I tried a can, and I really wanted to like it, but I soon found myself trying my best to finish the can. The taste is like apples, but it reminded me of the green apple Palmolive dish soap, which really disgusted me. I much prefer the Gotlands Grey, which I really enjoy.

        This snus is very good, but its one I couldn't go through quickly. Its a dessert snus in my head. Gotlands has the best quality hands down.

          I thoroughly enjoyed the yellow, and definitely agree on the green in that it is a bit more sour apple than anything else. I had one can and really enjoyed some, and was a bit turned off by others, depending on my mood I guess or, as mentioned, how hard I was concentrating on work at the moment. Just got the grey today and look forward to trying it. Hoping the anise isn't too strong. The yellow really grew on my fast and I did and will be ordering more for sure.

            Yea, it's good. Sour apple; does get bitter on you after about 30 min. Still a quality snus, would order again.
