    Another noon looking for suggestions...

    Just got started using snus to quit smoking. Tried vaping but it just wasn't enough. Picked up some general mint locally as well as some jakobssons strong mint. Between the 2 of them and a few puffs off the ecig here and there, it seems to be doing the trick. The jakobssons stark mint really helps as well. I just got my first order from snuscentral today after a long delay due to harvey hitting us, got 15 cans of general mint, 10 cans of epok strong ice cool mint, and 2 cans of general mini mint. Also did another order for 3 each of epok strong lime, jakobssons melon, and ettan white portion. Should have it soon.

    I'm liking using snus and it's making quitting smoking much easier, but I have a feeling I'm going to get tired of mint flavors before long. I was smoking a pack a day of menthols for almost 20 years. Wanting to try some of the most popular brands and flavors on the next order to see what else I like. I'm doing OK with the 8mg general portions with some 14mg jakobssons portions mixed in. The epok are pretty strong and will help, I love the slim portions. Finding myself wetting the general white mints in my mouth before placing in my lip for faster flavor and nic hit. I want to try some of the milder less salty tobacco flavors, citrus flavors, and any of the must haves. Not wanting to try Los just yet. Nothing super fruity, just the must haves to mix it up a bit and get a break from mint.

    So far I have the following in my cart:
    Göteborgs Rapé Lingon Portion
    General Onyx
    Skruf strong portion
    Ettan Regular Portion
    Grov Regular Portion
    Nick and Johnny Strong Portion
    Thunder Frosted SLIM

    What would you guys suggest?

    Damn....it that's alot of mint, u worry I'll do the same with mint.
    Figured I'd get sick of the mint some day, so I'll get a few classic flavors.
    How long did it take ya to stop smoking?
    Welcome to the fold

      I would suggest getting the Snubie mixed roll from snuscentral. That will give you some good variety. On top of those eight cans I would recommend mixing it up and getting around 20 cans to keep your cost per can down.

      Some of my favorites so far in my very limited experience:
      Crafted whisky original
      Lab 22 slim white mint
      Odens cold white
      Grov Original portion
      General original portion
      General white portion
      General mint white

      I am not a fan of Ettan white due to how bland it is, but this does make it a great snus to try if you are new to it. I’ve heard Ettan Original is better, but I have not tried it.

      I plan to try Oden Original and skruf Original soon, but I can’t vouch for them yet.

      You’ll find that snus is a very personal preference. There are crowd favorites, but it’ll be up to you to explore. There are a ton of great options right now.

        That is good suggestion......regardless of how you go about it try a variety.......get a few cans you know you like and then get an assortment of things that are different. I would definitely throw in some of the classical snuses.....in the end these are the ones that people most often will land on long term.......Also a good general rule is that if you don't like something at first stick in a ziplock and throw it in the freezer.......in a few months go back an revisit it......your taste will change
        When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers
