    I fully expect that the Clove will make the cut. Although I am sure it won't be for everyone, I expect most will like it.


    Ah yes, the dreaded banana snus test. Stay tuned. Will post later about it, but not until I finish enjoying my afternoon snus. :lol: :lol:

      I learned my lesson re: special snus from manufacturers and retailers when I admitted I was given a can of the Carbon Fiber Onyx from Buysnus. People get mean and jealous, even if it's in good fun. Banana will be interesting......
      :P

        Hi
        Is it OK to openly discuss the new limited flavors on the forums? yes
        But only the limited flavors, not anything else mentioned in the most recent mail.

          Cool, expect banana review then soon. Gonna be in it's own thread to try and keep everything neat for Patrick.

          And Pony. I think Patrick only picked me cause of who I am and how much I have contributed here. Since everything I have ever said has been public, haters need not apply. I trust *most* folks would say I have put my time and effort in here and deserve that opportunity.

          Now I too got a carbon can from Buysnus but that was only cause they knew I was pissed at them and they were feeling guilty. Yeah, I kind of assume that my infamy though might still be partly why they did t, big reason why I recently traded it away to someone who really, really wanted it. I just didn't feel comfortable holding onto it when I knew there were others who really cared about having it more than me.

            You definitely have earned it Sage. Keep up the good work. I'm not hating. Now go try the banana

              I know. But you had questions, you asked, and deserved honest answers.

                    I'm no hater of the sagacious one, in fact you got me to try LD Black, and I haven't looked back. Plus your reviews are pretty damned comprehensive. Oh and your avatar is sick, particularly with the lös bindi on your forehead :lol: . Seriously though, people like sage add a real degree of depth and accessibility to the forum. Very welcoming. Just be careful with your comments about Elixyr Energy, and you'll be fine :lol: .

                    Sagedil = win.

                      Aww, I only get cranky when folks bash Elyxr just based on taste, and not taking into account the other good it does.

                      But thank you. 8)

                        I do really hope this one is released. I was also big into smoking cloves back in the day. I just loved them, though agree with others that I felt like they were just tearing up my lungs, much worse than cigs.

                          I would love to be a tester, but I'm afraid it's better that I don't. My taste buds are just too retarded......I never seem to taste what I'm supposed to taste.

                          I trust the opinions of the chosen few, however. :wink:

                            I agree jason. I would love to test as well but that is more because I want to try the new flavors. I'm not that good at picking up on the subtleties I don't think. I just either like it or I don't.

                              I just have to say, I am so excited to try the clove. A few weeks before I heard about this, I was looking through my spice rack and found some cloves, at which point I began thinking to myself: you know what kind of snus I would love? Clove snus!

                                Just a followup. About 20 minutes ago, I turned the light on so I could do a bit of snuff, realized the Retro I had in was about 2 hours so dumped it. Maybe my last snus of the night, maybe one more, but I really wanted an Oden's Cinnamon. Not necessarily the high nic hit, but just the taste. Then realized I had finished the can, so grabbed a Thunder. Not exactly what I had in mind but it will do I thought. Then I realized hat I really wanted. A clove. So I dumped my Thunder after about minutes, and put in a clove snus and OMG, it was just perfect. It is exactly what I wanted. Sweet, but a little bitter, the wonderful taste of clove.

                                I really had grown weary of flavored snus, other than my twice a month LD Black kick. But recently finally trying Oden's Cinnamon, and now trying Clove, I now have 2 new flavored snuses that I love. And if you have tried Odens, there is a bit of similarity. Not in sweetness, the V2 Clove is sweeter, but in the way that the level of spice just tastes right, and thee is a certain bitterness that just plays well with the taste of the spice.

                                This is one I would just love to see made permanent. Either that, or I am gonna buy a heck of a lot just to freeze
