Skruf stark and it's supposed nicotine

[superdevil]

I never needed the kick from a high nic dose snus. I smoked almost two packs a day of Camel non filters or Lucky Strikes for 12 years, and at first even a regular 8mg portion was kicking my ass. I think some people are just sensitive to nicotine in certain forms of delivery. I could chain smoke three or four Camels most nights, but then I would pop in some Skruf around bedtime and I'd be dizzy or nauseous. Oral tobacco has always hit me much harder than smoking tobacco.

Sage has sage advice...don't sweat the smoking for now.

As far as "kick" goes, I find General Extra Stark portions hit me a lot harder than any of the Skruf snus (portion or los). Skruf is my mainstay, but a portion of GES usually hit's me like a brick. I usually use that in the mornings...and afternoons...and evenings...lol, in between Skruf that is. I also find a bump or two of snuff really kicks it up a notch.

Re: Skruf stark and it's supposed nicotine

I was looking for a kick, my husband tells me to try skruf stark.. it has the 2nd most nicotine in the snus world, and should give me what I'm looking for.

It did not.

And while it was very good, I really thought that it would have had a nice kick to it. Is there anything out there in the portion department that gives a nice kick??
I think my body just consumes nicotine, and I'm doomed to have to smoke a cigarette to get any kind of kick. Or maybe I have to use 2 portions at once. I have even smoked while snusing, and had no ill effects.

Damn, I just wanted a little jump.

If you stop smoking you'll realize how strong skruf really is.

Really? The Skruf Stark strikes about the right balance. I tend to think Ekstra Sterk Portions of Odens, Roda and General taste like ass, just too harsh for me. Its better in los than in portions. I got over my Los objections, and I realized that its less harsh than portions. And its really easy to remove, just wipe it out with a paper towel and you don't even have to rinse. If you do rinse the color comes right off your teeth.

3) 15mg: General Extra Sterk
4) 14mg: Skruf Strong Original/White

Oden's ES Kanel, gives me a good kick. It also doesn't have that "fake" cinnamon taste, not too salty....just good. Leave it in for at least an hour, and that usually does the trick for me.
