I know some people like it, I've never tried it, but be aware:

That brand was discontinued as of earlier this month. What getsnus has left is all it's remaining stock, and it's very, VERY close-dated, as in, it's best-by date is Monday, June 1st.

If you have any qualms at all about using snus that will be past it's best-by date before it even gets to you, give it a pass. Otherwise, for 2.50, may as well throw a can in, and if you like it, you'll join others mourning it's passing.

i think i will give it a try. i dont think being a couple of days past its use for freshest taste date will hurt anything

N&J West is the white-portioned version of N&J Original. The flavor is mellower and juices less. I would buy a can because they will be discontinued soon!

Is the normal N&J strong a popular brand in sweden?? God I hope so, I would probably cry if it got cut.

I like it. I'll miss it.

Some people liked it.....a whole lot more people hated it. :wink: I guess it just comes down to personal taste like it usually does, though.

To be fair, most of the haterade was directed at N&J East more than West.

N&J East apparently had a "cardamom" taste to it. It was kinda weird and honestly wasn't ever my first choice for anything, but I liked it okay.

N&J West was just delicious. For some reason I got this taste off of it that reminded me of some spice that goes into good Italian red sauce. I can't name the spice, but I could taste it, and I liked it a lot.

I don't care too much about the best-by date from the cans I got from this latest getsnus clearance, cause they're now in my freezer to wait until I miss N&J enough to pull one out.

I liked the East much better than the West. My biggest complaint was that the flavor didn't last long.

i threw a can in from get snus earlier this week. Figure I should experience the snus dinosaurs before they go extinct.

No...It´s not. Pretty much every snusfridge in the stores are filled with 90% General, Grov & Ettan. The rest of the brands are only there to fill upp the fridges so they don´t look empty...
