Personal tastes compared

Hrm... I'm massively busy at the moment, but maybe I'll make it a programming project when I've cleared out the chaos. :idea:

Just received my order from buysnus.com. During the sale they had recently I ordered a variety of different Swedish Match snuses (general, gotes no 1 & 2, roda, etc).

I just tried some (Goteborgs rape No 1) for the first time. Pritty darn good I must say.

Even with snus, the old saying "You get what you pay for." often still applies.

Snuson everyone.

Just tried gotes no 2, Not sweet enough for me, Skruf kranbar is better. I think i'll stay away from the cranberry flavoured snus.

GR No.2 not sweet enough? You have a big sweet tooth then.
Might care to try some of the Offroad variety then.
Especially if you like G.Rapé original (No.1). Like I said before, Offroad original is like GR No.1 on steroids.

gr1 doesn't taste at all sweet to me...more fragrant and peppery. I think I've got to try offroad if it's anything like you say, though

You should see my teeth, or should I say lack of them.

Just kidding.

Actually I tried some Bacco original loose(citrus and bergamont). I thought it was priity good. I'll have to give offroad a shot as it probably tastes even better.

No it's just that nzkiwi listed snuses he likes in another thread. (not relating to sweetness per se)
Agreed, GR1 is more fragrant/flowery/pine needley/whateverey and Offroad original has like an even fresher aroma. To me it seems like it opens my stuffy nose right up.

Damn, I'm smiling as I describe it. My fridge is full of snus (22 cans of lös I think). But no Offroad original anymore. I'm gonna hafta wait a long while.

[nzkiwi]

I'm like you, I have about 10 cans in the freezer and I still want to buy more. :lol:

If I could come home to that every night, I would be a happy man

[littlesilverboxfromwales]

I'll have a portion! :lol:

Can't remember the name of it, but there's a music site with a similar principle, it has some kind of programme that displays what other bands you'd probably like if you express an interest in a particular band. Anyone know it? It displays the results as a sort of floating spider diagram.

www.last.fm is smililar to this. It wouldn't be too hard, just an inference engine and a database. Artifical Intelligence is my major

I'm currently tasting Oliver Twist, and Picanell.
It's great !
I was told that these brands were chewing gum flavoured tobacco. Not at all !
It's tobacco leaf, rolled.
It's mini mini, but very tasty and nice. And stronger than a mini dry Catch or Wise, for example.

[chainsnuser]

Yes, I use Oliver Twist Original and also some german Grimm & Triepel chew almost everyday. It's a nice alternation and very tasty. I guess, every snuser should try it. No spitting required. They use Kentucky tobacco with very much nicotine (around 27mg/g).

Though I like it very much, I found also that it's not so appropriate for permanent use, in contrast to snus.

Could you explain why it's not so appropriate for permanent use ?
Is it stronger in nicotine than a mini snus ?
