It's an adjustment, that's for sure. After 5 years of single life, this is a big change for me, but I'm warming up to it so far!

Oh, whoops. Was updated and forgot to share links

No lössnus :^(

You should flip the pictures Chad. You have them reversed with the descriptions :^)

The snus sounds good, but I likely won't try them unless they happen to turn up in B&M, and I'm running short on self control.

So not being released in U.S.?

General Variations sounds good, have to admit, that I'll be picking some up.

[GenuineSpirit]

Hmm, sounds interesting.

[pouchface]

Intriguing. Hopefully it won't be long before my local B&M picks this stuff up.

This new release isn't made for US brick and mortar shops, so you won't see it at stores in the US....only online. That's the story, lol. Swedish Match is known for making lots of great snus that they will never import to the US.

I'm so disappointed in this announcement. When it first was brought up, it sounded like it was something for the American market.

I thought, or I was hoping that SM was going to increase their product variety with the brick and mortar stores though I am not sure how I came by that Idea. A big deal about new flavors in the internet stores is just not that exciting.....

I maintain that they are "testing the waters" with the new flavors online and if they take off (so to speak) then maybe they'll release them into the US brick and mortar shops. The fact that this makes sense, means they won't do that, lol

I just want more variety in my brick and mortar shops. I WANT JAKS MELON!! LOL. So sick of the FDA dragging its feet on allowing new snus into the American market.

They discontinued Claq Qui, say no more!

This actually is a pretty big deal. Outside of Kardus, Islay Whiskey Snus, and Åhus Anno, snusmakers haven't paid much attention to making a "premium snus" offering to consumers. The market has been trending towards lower cost offerings and away from quality for the past few years. So to see a company look to making a higher quality snus while everyone else is going towards low priced is pretty exciting, this could also lead the way for other manufacturers to take note (if the sales are there when this product is released) and start making snus of a higher caliber for those of us not concerned with price that want something more exciting.

with all the general offerings already available I think it may only confuse more people. But I do hope it goes over well.....and at some point they may offer a coffee snus that is actually "premium". Maybe tomorrow.


probably never
