General Extra Strong

Its in Swedish, but I'll try to translate.

"The strongest snus in the General family, with classic General taste and rich tobacco flavor. Releasing in Norway fall 2008 (Sold only on the Norwegian market)."

When I'm out of my Skruf Stark Portion I'll pick one of these up. They are not white portion like the General Sterk, and contain a whopping 15mg of nicotine per pouch. That's equal to a whole pack of cigarettes (however due to absorption efficieny not as strong in practice).

The bars on the bottom that say "fukt" means moisture and "tobakssmak" means tobacco taste.

My GOD!!!

15 mg of Nicotine a pouch is pretty crazy. But i guess that would curve any nic cravings for cig smokers.

But wouldnt it be easy to OD on nic with those things? Someone use to double pouching throws in 2 of them and instantly vomits?

Wow, can't wait for the inevitable Extra-Extra-Sterk.

Before people ask, I'm not sure when it will come to Sweden or online shops. I didn't look for online shops before I came to Canada this summer, and they had just released General Sterk on the shops, while they had them in Norway for over a year before. If someone wants some tins, I can probably ship them, but note that snus is expensive in Norway, around 12$ per can so if you want some I'll need about 20$ per can, or depending on the amount and shipping.

Obviously Generals answer to Skruf Sterk, which at 14mg/g is very strong already. I think 'fukt' really means ****ed!!! :lol:

I believe Skruf Stark is 12mg/g. Swedish Match says General Ekstra Sterk is the world's strongest snus. I can't wait to try it. Maybe I'll pick up a tin tomorow instead and report back.

Sorry... General Sterk is 11mg/g nicotine. Skruf Stark is 14mg/g, not 12. That's why General Extra Sterk would go to 15mg/g nic, to be able to make the claim that it's the strongest.

I've been looking for sources for how strong skruf is, seems to be hard to find online, mine could've been faulty. Whats your source?

That's the source I used, I'm trusting snusworldwide though. I'm kinda crushed because I was looking forward to trying an A LOT stronger snus Oh btw they should really introduce manditory nicotine listnings on the packaging.

I wouldn't worry, at THAT level it's pretty damn strong already. Hey!, You can always put in two portions and you'll really know what fukt is all about. 8)

For some reason i can see someone who uses that snus and runs out of it sitting in a corner biting their nails off and pulling their hair out with the lights turned off like a heroin addict.

Thats some strong stuff.

I've heard of people getting hallucinations from enough nicotine (or just visual distortions). Not sure how reliable they are though. I brought back some cigarettes from Canada, which have 2.8mg in nicotine content. Gave them to my friend Daniel (no tolerance), who said the speed limit sign was vibrating. Again, can't be to sure though. But the Indians did use nicotine spiritually.

[Grim]

Well ive had some of those visual hallucinations before from chain smoking at parties while drinking.

Felt wierd but thought i was just really f-ed up/

[sagedil]

I guess I am just all niced out, cause even when I smoke I have a portion in, even a strong portion. And never any hallucinations for me. And I have done MORE than my fair share of acid, I know hallucinations 8)
