    Just put in my order for a roll of this bad boy.

    Today's top tip for British folks: pay in SEK rather than the usual dollar dollar bills ya'll. Saved £6 on this roll due to the rising dollar/falling pound and BS's lack of attention to their exchange rates

    Peace

    PS: I'll post my opinions in a couple of days when it arrives

      Thx!
      I would say Pall Mall is to General what Lucky Strike is to Ettan or Grov.
      Lucky IMO is more of a straightforward tobacco taste, with way too much liquid smoke IMO. Pall Mall is flavored similarly to General but much more subtle.

        Nice tip, thanks.

        But now you've made me want to listen to the Wu Tang.

          Wu-Tang are one of the only commercial hip-hop groups worth listening to, so in my humble opinion... this is most certainly not a bad thing

              A+. This is some good stuff. Thanks for the tips ya'll I'm gonna enjoy this roll. It is certainly one of the best portions I've used to date, and could be a serious contender to 'the General'

              I see what you mean about somewhere between Skruf and General though, it seems to have the peppery bite of General without being overpowering, and the smooth tobacco taste of Skruf. At the same time, it lasts and lasts and lasts

                Hmm okay so just a query here. Has anyone noticed strange lip effects with this snus? It might be because I haven't used original portions for a while, but after a couple of days of back-to-back PMing, I noticed what looks like little blisters on the inside of my lip where the portion sits?

                I'm guessing it's just the extra salt in the originals vs. the whites causing the water in my lip to be drawn into the epidermis although I would be interested to know if anyone has had similar experiences (i.e. is it something particular with this brand?)

                Bit of a shame really... I hope my lip steps it's game up again :P I've had to drop some Skruf in this morning haha and I'm just not enjoying it anywhere near as much Well, gonna load up with some PM now I think :P

                    I'm so pleased to see everyone liking this one. Would I ever lead anyone astray?? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

                    Seriously, as to the question about whites vs regular....I am mostly all white now. But the Pall Mall regular is one of the few regular that I like very much. I just ordered 4 cans of the white. But my bigg Christmas order, I will but some of both!!

                    So...regular is good, white is good...get them both!! I promise you won't be disappointed. :wink:

                      Haha yeah I guess I should stop going to get my vagina waxed huh and just sit in out? :P No seriously, it's been all good these last couple of days so I figure it was just the original switch...

                      Yeah thanks again for the tips on this sage, it really is great stuff. I think I may have found a true General replacement!

                          Both are great, but im an original portion guy but this is one of the only snuses that i will order agin in white. Im not fond of white at all, but for the Mall.

                          itchystiches i have noticed the lip blisters a well.

                            You know, a week or so later... I STILL love this stuff as much as when I first tried it. Hell, I popped some General Sterk yesterday because I have a few cans I want to use up... the entire time I was just longin for some mall haha. I don't know what it is about the taste, it's sort of bitter-sweet somehow? Like boiled orange candies mixed with tobacco and pepper.

                            Thanks again sage and all others for putting me onto this, it's gone from off my radar to my favorite portion right now

                            If you ain't tried this and you're into General/Granit/Knox/Skruf(less so but quite possibly), get some ordered... you won't be disappointed.
