V2 test review - Banana

[Raddleman]

Cool, thanks Xobe. How many cans in the pack?

[Xobeloot]

Assuming it remains the same as previous years, it will be 5 flavors w/ 2 cans of each.

[Raddleman]

Ah ok, so like the Nordstrommen. Sounds good. I'll be honest though, the only Offroad I really like is the WG. The jury's out on the Liquorice los. This clove sounds good though, I'll probably buy the set anyway.

Does that mean you've tried it but aren't sure, or you haven't tried it yet?

I can't imagine anyone who likes licorice not liking the lös.

Haven't tried it yet, lol sorry about the ambiguity. Tomorrow I'll be on it, after I've finished off the oden's kanel. I'll keep you posted as to how it goes.

[Skimo]

what do you say of Oden kanel?

I bought a tin and eagerly await its jöse!

I would highly recommend the Oden's Kanel, both in portions and in los. I prefer the los though. The initial scent is very sweet and rich. It tastes pretty authentic, and is very easy to handbake, and works like a dream with the icetool. Oh and I've found goes very well with coca-cola.

Power to the flavoured snuses 8)

I didn't have a whole lot of faith in the banana. The only banana tobacco product I have had was gawith banana. It was ok though I tired of it quickly. The problem was that it had no tobacco flavor at all, and the banana scent was like banana flavored candy as opposed to real bananas. Banana and tobacco just doesn't seem to work.

I've got an idea, lets see if I can say banana any more times in this post... :lol:

OR Licorice Loose is very tasty.

Yeh that's the one I will be trying out for the first time today, if I run out of Oden's kanel. I can't wait, everyone is saying it's better than the portions .

Actually, I find Odens Kanel very difficult to use in an icetool.

It clogs up and you have to pack it in by hand then resume packing in the can.

Not the easiest to use in an Icetool, however, this is my opinion when using the 3ml.

Hmm, i find it easy with the icetool. It's the gotlands I find difficult, very crumbly.

How about DRAGON FRUIT V2?????

DRAGON FRUIT...PLZ.

I FEEL THAT THE NORTHERNER FLAVOR POLL WAS A SHAM AND I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WANTED DRAGONFRUIT TO WIN BUT SOMEHOW THAT OTHER CRAP FLAVOR WON.

DAMN IT, XOBES INFECTED MY COMPUTER WITH THE CAPS VIRUS.

[mercvrivs]

What flavor is Dragon Fruit?

[ponysoprano]

Thanks for the review. That's about what I'd expect. There's just something wrong about bananas and tobacco :^D

Yeah, I was anticipating something like a banana nut bread, hoping for that really. Within 15 seconds of popping a portion in, lxskllr's words floated above my head in a "thought bubble". There is something wrong with banana and tobacco in combination. I'd hoped to eliminate any excessive sweetness on my palette by having a G. mini mint portion before this one, but I still taste what others are referring to. It's not really a sugary sweetness, but kind of a cloying saccharin sweetness. That being said, I don't think the basic idea of banana snus is gross at all, this one needs to just be ironed out. I think if V2 went back and experimented some more, it'd be good. Maybe less salty.
:P

edit:
oh, and Dragonfruit is a fruit called pitaya. You can find a close approximation of the flavor in various energy drinks and sports beverages, I think SoBe had a dragonfruit drink at one point. To me it sort of tastes like mixed berries with a sharper edge.
