    Portions don`t get it for me

    I wanted to try them to see about the other flavors. Some of the portions taste good, but I can barely taste them. Lös gives way more flavor. It is a shame that more of the portion makers do not cater to us lös guys.

    I have yet to try los, but will do so on my next order for at least one can. What I have noticed from portions so far, though, is the ones I've tried are very subtle in flavor. Other than the salty taste which is prominent to me since I've just started using it, the other 'flavor' (be it menthol, or what have you) has been very subtle indeed.

      Since portions are so tidy, you can flip them around, squish them, nibble on them, etc., to get more flavor.

        I find the flavour is stronger with portions too. And I like that they're saltier.

          I always flip my portion after about 20-30 minutes. Thats when the flavor really hits.

            Yeah, I'd say you were doing something wrong. for most of us, portions offer more flavor as you can move it around and such.

            But in the end, snus is just about you. Use whatever you like, but don't ever assume your reaction to a snus will be like everyone elses.

              Maybe I am just strange, but I always take a very small sip of water after putting a portion in and touch it to the portion. This kind of kick-starts the flavor to it, and the nic. Doing this, portions have more flavor to me than los.

                Not so strange. I always put a portion on my tongue and flip it over, then use my tongue to position it. Definitely kicks in faster. I like los, but portions get most of my snus time. Portions are more flavorful to me. Although I do like the slower release of flavor from los.

                  I'm probably tongue deficient but Onyx doesn't taste like anything at all. And I don't get much from General Extra Stark either.
                  Gotlands, Claq Qui, Skruf and some others are big and bold though.

                    That's weird; I can handle the nic hit from Onyx (I don't much care for the strong ones), but I find the taste of it to be very overpowering.
