Nordstrommen Los Opinions

[desirexe]

I just received the limited edition Nordstrommen Los snus box. I guess I lucked out because when I purchased it from Northerner, the price was $21.80, I now see the price is $28.37! What is there to say about these 5 different flavors besides, OMG!!! Each and every one smells and tastes delicious! I was hesitant about buying this limited box because I tried the julesnus and thought that was disgusting. Anyway, my only negative comments about this snus is that some of them are a tad dry and crumbly and I think it only comes in los, which isn't too big of a deal since I make my own portions. Anyway, just wanted to share my 2 cents. Also, the box that the set comes in is pretty nice. It's kinda like a collapsible cigar box with magnetic clasps, definitely sturdy enough to be used as a storage box.

I'll be ordering this in a couple of days when I get paid; it's been all I can think about for the past week. I'll be throwing in a tin of Thunder and the Skruf whites, so this order will be a nice mailbox load of firsts.

i've only tried the brandy alexander so far. i like it after dinner/before bed. i'm going to use one can at a time so it should stretch out for some time. brandy alexander is a bit on the sweet side but nice. i couldn't use it all day long, but it is very nice after dinner. too bad it is a limited edition i like the flavor enough i would keep some on hand if it was available all the time. i understand the limited edition to some extent but it does suck when you find something you really like and know it will vanish someday. the snack food industry really pisses me off with this. they introduce a great candy bar or chip that is better than what they normally offer. then they just take it away. why do i keep putting myself through this torture lol.

Got mine yesterday.

First tried the chocolate raspberry. Lot's of flavor in this one. Almost too much. Pretty sweet also. Left that pris in for 2 hours. Tried it again later and it was not as overpowering with flavor. I think it will make a nice dessert snus. I could not handbake it very well because it is crumbly so used my icetool. I think I will grow into liking this strong flavor more over time.

Next up dark vanilla. This one is great. The flavor is much subtler than the choc/rasp. Not overpowering at all. I've only tried one pris so far, but I think it is delicious.

Those are the only two I tried so far. I was afraid I would hate them all after my first pris of choc/rasp because of the sweet strong flavor, but now I am very happy to have some different flavors on hand.

Come on guys, I know more of you probably have this set. Let's hear it!

These are my first V2 snuses, so I would like to know how they compare to other V2's as well.

I can not see getting to like something I can not get again. For others, go for it.

I love all of them except the tobacco top. All I can taste in that one is the dreaded 'V2 chemical weirdness".
The others are all absolutely amazing 'dessert' snuses.

I kind of feel that way, too....but I'm holding onto hope that they will produce at least a couple of the flavors on a regular basis soon. I haven't ordered any yet, but I'm sure I will like them. 8)

I should get my order of this next week. I just like the idea of trying everything even if it won't be a regular on Northerner just for having had the experience.

[Xobeloot]

Sadly, I've had to wait until now to order.

I still have some of the limited samples from the tasting phase that I have been rationing out for quite a while.

I just ordered 2 boxes of the limited los and am SOOOOOOOO excited!

I love a nice pris of brandy alexander along with a cup of coffee. YUM!

[Maximus]

I got my box today and am excited to try all the flavors. I am also impressed that I got it from Northerner just under a week from ordering with no issues. I think its time to start racking up points at Northerner to get another IceTool.

My wife asked who was going to do dishes tonight and I volunteered out of pure joy of this box arriving. Now I can't decide which one to try first. I'll post a review of whatever I decide later.

[Shownarou]

So, after trying the Dark Vanilla. I'm going to have to order another one of these boxes. The flavors this set has are just too amazing. Please please please keep this series!

[Maximus]

So I decided to let my wife decide, I have hooked her on loose as well, and she chose Brandy Alexander. Very nice choice for after dinner.

I have not drank a good liquer in awhile and this immediately hit me with memories of a cognac I brought back from Russia. I have had it in for an hour so far and it just makes me feel relaxed and warm between the flavor, smell and memories.

This I will definitely be stretching out over the months for a fine after dinner or evening treat. Not an every evening one as I want to make it special like it feels now.

It didn't even bother me doing the dishes :lol: I just kept thinking of the flavor, smell, the warm water, the soapy suds...enter PP comment here...just overall a feeling of contentment.

[Xobeloot]

I have two boxes on the way and will most likely order a couple more to pop in the old freeze box.

I don't use these regularly, just as an occasional treat (3-4 pris total each week all flavors together). But now that I'm out of most of them, I wish I had a huge stock of all of them.

[Maximus]

I am trying to mandarine now and it is nice. I was expecting a soda pop or really sweet orange but I'm more just getting a nice orange flavor.

[Xobeloot]

Try mixing some orange and some dark vanilla :wink:
