Maxi Portions and Sterk

[pangloss]

Hi All,

I have a N&J coming in the mail. I was wondering if the maxi portions/sterks last longer than the normal size portion, assuming all other variables equal (portion type, brand, etc.)?

Haven't tried Maxi Portions, sterks defiantly last longer. General sterks last well over an hour, as do skruf. The problem for me is that, it just is too much nicotine to keep in that long. The flavor stays strong the whole time for me.

Two different concepts here.

maxi portions, which are bigger

Sterks, which are regular sized portions, just made with slightly different parts of the tobacco plant to maximize nicotine.


have never tried a maxi so no comments there. but sterks last as long as any other portion. Some regulars lst a real long time, so do some sterks. but there is nothing about being a sterk that would make t last longer because it's a sterk.

Hm... Yeah they don't seem to have many different types of Maxi portions on the market.

Does any one use Maxi Portions regularly? Any comments on pros/cons of such (besides the fact that its bigger...) :lol:

I've never even tried maxiportions. They don't appeal to me. Strong portions are a better choice IMHO.

If I want a "maxi-pris", I just use lössnus.

And yes, strong portions rarely last longer than normal portions. They mainly just release their nicotine faster and wear out as fast. It's a lot different with strong lössnus, which sometimes virtually lasts forever.

Just my 2 cents.

Cheers!

I recommend trying general maxi at least once. Its value is in how ridiculously huge the portion is. Its just fun to try, nothing I've ordered more than twice, nor will I likely order again, but you might as well see for yourself how silly it is.

In the past, I used a lot of Granit Maxi. The portion is huge, but it's longer and more narrow than the General Maxi, which is just massive. I primarily used them when I first quit smoking because of the extra nicotine. Other strong portions knocked me on my ass, but Granit Maxi was just right.

I don't use them very often these days, but I recommend them. They're quite good. Much better than General Maxi.

Now that's a little tid bit that I was not aware of! Thanks sage...I learn something new here every day!

As far as the subject at hand, the only non stark that I have tried have all been los, and have never tried maxi portions. So I can't really post an educated opinion here.

Well I take that back, I have had Offroad apple portions. For some reason Offroad just doesn't last long at all.
