Snus Review - Discreet snus

[BuLLitz]

My wife wan't too keen on the Peach but she LOVED the Strawberry and the Ice Mint.

Got my Discreet samples from Tom today (thanks, Tom!). I've tried 3 portions of Emerald Ice (spearmint) so far, here's my initial impression:
(-) a bit too sweet
(+) real good spearmint taste
(+) nic hit is better than I expected (!)
(+) lasted ~45 min.

I'll post an update after more testing, but so far I'm impressed with this mini. I'm looking for a strong mini, this is in the running - I'd prefer a more regular-tobacco-flavored type, though.

(My current rotation (all portions): General Sterk & Extra Sterk; N&J; Claq Qui; Retro orig; LS orig. & white; Goteborgs Rape; Camels (Swedish) orig)

I got the sample package in the mail today. Same as others got - 2 each of 4 flavors. Thanks, Tom!

So far I've tried just the Peach. Very peachy and somewhat sweet. The flavor seems to last until you're ready to quit. I'll try the others as I get to them.

Since Tom reads this forum, I'd like to know exactly how much nicotine is in one of these little pouches. I've read guesses from 1 mg to 8 mg to 1 gram (!).

Stronger minis are possible Thunder has just made their Frosted in an 8 mg mini.

app 7.4 per pouch I took out the burn and I grow my own tobacco and it is the BEST , no middle men to keep the cost down and quality up

Ah, that's great! It looks like you have a new customer. These little beauties will definitely be part of my rotation.

Now, how about one in a pure tobacco flavor?

My wife is a fan for sure. Discreet snus are her favorite. :wink:

I did find a place to buy them online quite cheap.
If I may post that link... here it is....

5 10-packs for $4.99
That is $1 (USD) per pack (10 pouch).

I love these little minis. I'm a huge fan of candy and sweets but I've been using the Discreet strawberry and peach flavors and I find that I don't even want candy lately. Now that there's a link to order these I'm definitely stocking up.

I think in comparison to other American snus, Discreet (Snus) is probably the best. The only major problem I had with them was the portions were so small they wanted to fall out of my upper lip at times. That is definately the first time I've had that happen. Still, when you compare them to the other American snus brands they certainly have the best product. I thought the strawberry and peach both tasted great, even if they were a bit sweet for what I typically like.

I always have some pouches of Discreet in the pocketbook...never know when that craving for an iced peppermint mocha twist at Starbucks is gonna hit! Need the Cool Mint ones for those ;-)

[Mamafish83]

most everything I use regularly is either a strong/sterk or ES. I found that combining or "double barreling" the Discreet snus works GREAT! Makes some interesting combos too!

Peach/Strawberry...a lil TOO much sweet.

Peach/cool mint...awesome

Strawberry/cool mint...Outstanding! My fav

Peach or Strawberry/ Emerald Ice...okay, not an all the time thing


Plus with now knowing the 7.4 mg standing it makes since that 2 pack the "punch" I'm looking for!

Great work!

I got my packs of Discreet Snus and am looking forward to testing this out. I figure I'll begin giving this a go tomorrow and will update once I get a chance to sample them all throughout the week.

Hmmm, strawberry/mint...I might have to try that one!

[BuLLitz]

I've got a situation...

I tried to do a large order of Discreet snus. The website that I was purchasing from gave me a message stating that I could not buy that quantity because I live in California.
So... my limit is 10 packs... which would last my wife just more than a week.

I am not the type that will order something every week nor do I want to commit to an "Auto Buy".
I would rather buy large quantities and then reorder when it gets low.

Are there any plans on making larger packs? 5 or 10-pack bundles?

[tom502]

Maybe they could sell a box of the packets.
