    my thunder snus loose arrived this morning what joy

    My eagerly awaited roll of loose thuner snus arrived

    I am 10 mins into my first prilla.

    I am feeling a nice steady warmth not too heavy flow of nicotine. The flavour is not too strong and suits my palette just fine tastes nice, baking a pris was easy enough for a beginner like me and it holds together well and does not put too much pressure on my gums like some of the more coarse grain snus does.

    The product is well packaged in plastic tubs all black and red. My 2 favourite colours.

    Thanks to the other users in this forum who recommended this product. For my first impression if this is the same for thenext few sessions it will be my snus of choice.

    Thanks snuson fo a great community and info..

    Glad you are enjoying it. You may be the first to review the Thunder los unless I missed something somewhere.

          review part 2 warning (for myself)

          This snus has a really subtle delivery of nicotine. So much so you feel an initial hit but it is not too strong. I was eager to feel the full effects of this tobacoo.

          So I took out the first pris and took a massive pinch and hillbilly style shoved it up my lip. After 10 mins then 20 mins I was thinking this stuff aint that strong. Then 30 mins into it WOW it blew my head off. I then got really hot my heart was thumping I got a raging thirst. went to the bathroom sink to get some water and then threw my guts up into the toilet had to lie down for 2 hours.

          I consider my self an experienced nicotine addict but completely underestimated the strength of this snus.

          So i am now 30 mins into my third pris. I took about half of the amount I did in my 2nd attempt.

          I am finding again the nicotine delivery is subtle and have only really started to get a good hit 30 mins in.

          That being said now I know what my limits are and what to expect from this snus. it is very enjoyable.

          My experience is not necessarily going to be your experience.

          My only feature request is that they make a finer grain version of this snus.

          overall I give it 8/10

              I got my los today as well.

              Superb! The flavor is a bit more muted than the portion (as with any other los).

              I can honestly say that this is going to be my go-to snus most of the time now. I plan to keep both portion and los on hand. I love them both!

                I really did try to make clear that this snus is unlike ANY I had ever tried. The nic hit is gentle, but it keeps coming, keeps coming, then keeps coming some more. My first day, I made the mistake of having a second two quickly and soon felt ill myself and nicotine NEVER makes me ill. I chain snus normal strongs day in and day out.

                I find I have had to change how I use snus with it and wait at least an hour or more between them. I have been using Mocca mini's to tide me over on days I simply must have a snus in my mouth. I have always loved the flavors of Mocca's, but just found they were useless on the nicotine front. Finally, I am happy cause I simply don't need the nicotine with the Thunders. Next order, i will buy a bunch more Mocca to always pair it with the Thunder.

                Go easy ith this stuff folks. You won't feel a rush of nicotine like you might with Skruff Stark. But an hour later, two hours later, even three hours later, you will still feel the nicotine.

                  After a few days my impression of this snus is going down a bit. Sure the snus lasts forever but every time I use it I don't get a sufficient hit from it till about half and hour.

                  Other snus I use the hit is not as strong as thunder is after 30 mins but I get a sufficient hit after a few mins.

                  So thunder snus will not be my morning snus, it will be my during the day snus and it wont be my evening snus.

                  My roll is going to last a long time.

                  I am now hoping to try the new General Extra Sterk loose to see how that compares.

                    My first 1 or 2 snuses of the day are always Elyxr. So I am already at a decent nicotine level when I start using Thunder. From there, Thunder takes GOOD care of any nicotine issues the rest of the day
