    Lös newbie

    Started with portions and want to move to some lös. What are some good quality lös brands that are good to hand bake?

    If you can handle licorice (a lot can't) and you are used to a fairly serious nic kick: then Offroads Los Lakrits is for you.

    I loved it but I think I was in the minority.

      I like that one also.

      Swedish Match snus is pretty easy to use. Röda Lacket is trivially easy to bake, but it falls apart easier due to the very fine grind. I'd try a few different snuses, and learn how they want to be handled. I'm unaware of any currently on the market that are especially hard. It's just a matter of getting the feel for them. Try lössnus brands you're familiar with in portion form. That'll give you an appreciation for how they differ. Some are more different than others, with Röda Lacket being nothing at all like the portions. Others are much closer, but still different.

      Edit:
      btw, I was gonna list a ten tin starter roll, but after looking, that's just about all of them. It's disappointing that regular strength lössnus is disappearing. The choices were much greater in years past :^/

        Prima Fint - a must try. Only comes in los and very easy to hand bake. Great plain tobacco taste.

                I have been meaning to post something like this for a while. It seems that many if not most of the folks hear are x-smokers. I applaud you all in your efforts to become smoke free. However, I have come to snus by a different rout and so I want to share my experiences with all those x-dippers who may be looking at this site for suggestions and direction to get started.
