    First time user

    In the process of stepping up from Oliver Twist, I plunged right in and got myself some Phantom lös snus. Not the right choice for a newbie :twisted:

    Looking around on buysnus for some portion (cause they are not available in Denmark), I wonder where to start.

    Any hinters or tips for a first time user?

    isteen Welcome to the forum.

    My suggestion is to try a portions sample box from Northerner.com. It is always a good place to start and lets you try a nice variety.

    Again welcome to the forum and enjoy the adventure of discovering new brands snus. Be sure to keep us all updated on your progress and your opinions of different brands

        Nick & Johnny is great.So is Claq Qui and General ES.I rarely use regular portions but if that's what you want I recommend Ettan or Roda Lacket.I cannot recommend Grov personally as I can't stand it but it seems to be popular.In fact I got half a roll I been trying to get rid of...

          Echo everyone else. Northerner Top 10 Box is my standard advice. And no one has ever been disappointed they took that advice.

            Lol I was gonna suggest Grov. That was my first snus-love. And it was hot. But yeah, sampler box for the win.

                Statues made of matchsticks, crumble into one another. My love winks, she does not bother. She knows to much to argue or to judge.

                  If you're using buysnus, I'm pretty sure they have a mixed sampler box. You get some portions, some lös. I'd recommend that, just so that you can see if you like lös. Phantom was one of the first lös snus that I tried, and it wasn't very kind to me. Odens or Roda Lacket would be easier on you.

                      The bridge at midnight trembles,
                      The country doctor rambles, Bankers' nieces seek perfection,
                      Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring.

                      Hell, even a metalhead knows Dylan!

                            The wind howls like a hammer. The night blows rainy. My love she's like some raven, at my window with a broken wing.

                            That's one of my all time favorite songs :^)

                            I'm debating whether or not to go see him this Friday. It's gonna be him, Willie Nelson, and John Mellencamp. My daughter really wants to go, but I don't really have $70 for the ticket(she would be free). We'll see. I'm thinking I'll probably end up going :^)
