    Anyone ever have oomph citrus & menthol?

    I just ordered some of this from northener, along with my first ever tin of Lucky Strike, and a bunch of my favorites. What do you guys think of it?

    Here it is:

      I've tried it. My impressions:

      1. Quick 30 second nic hit;
      2. Very little flavor/taste (lemon);
      3. Portion lasts for about 10 minutes then it begins to taste like paper;
      4. Good for short meetings (conceals very well); and,
      5. Woman seem to favor this brand more than men.

      I've also tried the Licorice and Wine & Dine versions. I was not very impressed with either of them.

      None of these are part of my daily rotation; however, every other week or so I pop one when have to speak in public.
      If you have any problems with my posts or signature

          It's OK. I like the energy once in a while for quick nic hit and pick me up.

            It was an early fav, but I now agree with this ^^

            Edit: If the "box pass" comes to me full of this it's off lol

                I tried one of my wife's the other day. Keep in mind that I had just spit out some other portion, probably Thunder or Oden's, so I didn't taste tobacco at all. It was fairly sweet, and surprisingly had a nice little burn, probably due to the menthol. They are so tiny that I had a hard time flipping the portion around with my tongue. They are ok, but I was just not that into it...

                  It's probably just built-up nic tolerance, but I could swear that Oomph was stronger when it was Wise. :?

                  Either way, I've never been too jazzed about the whole line; synthetic snus just doesn't cut it.

                    It's one of three snus my wife uses. She likes it. I use one or two portions a month.

                      I keep a pack or two in my laptop bag as an emergency snus. That's pretty much the only use for them for me now. They are an odd little thing but they aren't THAT bad

                      Plus since they are dry they hold forever.

                        They are a damn sight better than Camel. That's for sure!

                          000mph Snus

                          I actually like it for some reason. I know its not that popular out in the snus community but for me it works well. What are the other brands and flavors that you find most enjoyable and popular among fellow snus users.

                            my review -

                            Oomph Citrus & Menthol - (6mg portion) 8 May 09.

                            I was unpleasantly suprised today with a new snus. I saw a package today that said "Northerner", and for the life of me I couldn't remember what I ordered form them that my regular store didn't have. Well here it is. Oomph (formerly Wise) Citrus & Menthol. The FIRST snus I got that I didn't like. The can was dirty when I got it, like dust from shelf life or just a dirty environment, I wasn't very pleased. When I opened up the can, the inside was dirty as well, but I didn't see any burst snus pouches. So I don't know how that happened. I thought, "Well, ok, I'm sure this snus will be worth it." The container boasts whitening, breath freashening, citrus and menthol. I thought this would be a GREAT snus. It's not. The pouches were dry, I'll be honest, it looks worse than Camel Frost. The snus looks like gunpowder - completely dry. When I put it in, no flavor, no aftertaste, no buzz, nothing. It's like inhaling through a straw and pretending it's a cigarette. I got nothing out of this snus. So I can't add on this is a good transitional snus, or a great first snus, all I can say is, it's snus. That's about it. No smell, no buzz, no taste. Didn't do it for me, at all.

                              It was on my first order. I ordered 10 and had to throw them in the bin. I thought they were dreadful - I didn't like the nicotine delivery.

                              The nicotine delivery on the 'proper' tobaccos is much smoother and more pleasant.
