Worst snus?

[jamesstew]

Offroad anything
Camel anything
Tourney
LD
N&J East

[Roo]

1. Jakobssons Ice Fruit
2. Offroad Coffee/Vanilla
3. Phantom Blue Portion (maybe most offensive snus ever IMHO)
4. Probe Whiskey
5. N&J East

Of these I have only ordered a single can of #1 and #5. The other 3 were given to me by someone who couldn't finish them. I have a feeling this list would be mostly Offroad if I had tried more varieties. As closed-minded as it is, I won't even give Offroad or Phantom another chance knowing how many varieties I already enjoy so much. Queue the lecture about not trying something new based on negative past experience with certain brands like Offroad and V2..... now!

:wink:

So far, anything Offroad I find quite digusting...

Not a big fan of Oden's xtra sterk liq either...

I am surprised how many people have Gotlands products and especially Gotlands Yellow in their list. Nearly all of their products are in my top 5.

I'm a little surprised to. I think it's the bitterness people don't like. That's one of the things I enjoy about it. I'd be cool with using Gotland snus exclusively, although I'd miss having a "natural" flavored snus.

Oh wow. How did I forget.

I don't necessarily have a worst yet, just some let downs
Jakobsens Ice Fruit: I really wanted to like this...I just couldn't.
General Extra Sterk: what a let down, I thought this was going to be great.
LD white: the opposite of black is...

[NonEntity]

Worst, in no particular order:
Probe Whisky
Ettan regular portion
Grovsnus Black
OR American Wintergreen Longcut
and my two other attempts at los. Roda Lacket and Knox los.

Every other can I have at least finished, though a couple of these are still in my refrigerator so I can try again at some point.

I'm surprised how often jacobsens icefruit is in here, love the stuff. not all day, but It's a nice flavor. If you have extra cans, hook me up.

The only ones I couldn't finish a can of:

probe whiskey
catch eucalyptus
offroad apple

ettan and nick and johnny, for all their fame; when I got tired of them, I got real tired of them. certain things are okay for about 1-3 cans...then I don't want to get them ever again.

Phantom portion/loose (it's just not for me)
Offroad Cranberry loose (way too sweet for me)
Jakobssons Icefruit portion (also way too sweet)
Kronan portion (burned so bad I couldn't snus on the right side of my mouth for a day)

Those are really the only brands I've tried that I'd never use again. Never tried Level, Elixr, and a lot of the newer brands.

I love Gotlands Yellow. I used to use it all the time. Now I just get a few cans here and there. I prefer the loose, but the portions are nice too. I also love the Julesnus, loose or portions. I enjoy the Green and Gray, but they're too heavily flavored for me to use with any regularity.

I understand why people might not like them though. The loose is very coarse and all of the varieties have some bitterness. I like coarse grinds and bitterness, but I can see how some people could be put off by it.

Jakobssons Ice Fruit, however, I just can't stand. The Classic is okay, but the citrus is too overbearing. When it first came out, I was expecting an old fashioned, pure tobacco taste. I was pretty disappointed with both overall, but I could feasibly use Classic again, just not with any regularity.

2. Level
3. Level
4. Level
5. Level

:lol:

LOL, what about Level?

My name is Jason, and I approve of this list. :lol:

I find Offroad Liquorice pretty disgusting, haven't had any major problems with others though.

Count me in as surprised Gul los and Jakobsson's are two of the best IMO. The bitterness is really clean and I would like it to an English Bitter or an American IPA, both of which greatly compliment it.

I'm with you three, the gotlands and jakobssons are my favorite regular strength lines. I love them all except have not tried the gotlands grey due to the fact that I hate anise. Though the nodstrommen line is giving them a run for their money, but I won't count it since I will not be able to get it before long.

[BrianC]

Let me add to keep on topic, I think my least favorite that I have had is ettan. I know that is heresy here, but there is something about it that makes me want to gag. Funny thing is I have a can I bought in the fridge, and since then my last two getsnus orders have included ettan as my mystery can, so I have an almost full can in my fridge and two unopened cans in my freezer. I think they will be there for a while :lol:

A close second is general sterk which I just got as a freebie with my northerner order. It is the worst general product I have tried, though I love the wedge shaped portions. At least onyx has that as well.

[Soft Morning, City!]

I adore Ettan, but I can easily see why it wouldn't appeal to some. It is very plain, uncomplicated snus. You get tobacco taste and not much else, but that's why I love it. I love Grov for the same reason, though Grov has a darker, heavier tobacco taste. Ettan is more mellow.
