    Where's all the Coffee/Espresso?

    ~~
    I was thinking about this at work today. How come there aren't more Coffe/espresso/etc flavors out there? The only one I even know of is Offroad Coffee/Vanilla.

    I don't know, it just seems that snus with coffee-like tones is a no brainer. Maybe the Tobacco combined with coffee bean flavor would just be flat out too bitter? What do you guys think?

    That sounds like a good idea, but I don't know how easy it would be to pull off using natural flavors. I'd want a taste like espresso beans, but I doubt it would last long as a snus. I'd prefer the snus to hint at espresso rather than having a huge flavor. Think Ettan with some coffee notes rather than Offroad coffee/vanilla.

        i drink loads of espresso. On ice. I live in Seattle, can't help it. I think straight up tobacco is the best flavor to pair with coffee, I don't need any extra flavor. But having traveled around, coffee in the rest of the world ain't what it is here, and I mean that. I wouldn't want any flavored snus to compliment the coffee, just tobacco. Grov svart is as flavored as I will go, but Odens ES is my go-to for a fresh 4-shot espresso over ice. Wakes my ass up real quick.

          As a big coffee drinker, I've been thinking the same thing. Seems like a no-brainer to me.

            I happened to aquire a can of V2Test Coffee Loose, and I haven't tried it yet, but I opened it and smelled it, and it smells GREAT!

            I wanna use up some "in use" cans before I get to that one.

              I agree that those are two tastes that just seem to have been made for each other. And although some people would disagree, I always loved the taste of a cigarette with morning coffee.

                    I got mine in a trade. I guess V2 has a few people they send to. I wasn't impressed with the flavored portions. But the loose seems very appealing. Once I finish up my open loose cans, I'll get on one.

                      I think Ettan original portions taste like chocolate and coffee.

                        Well, I got a can of Offroad Coffee Vanilla. Haven't tried it yet, but I am expecting greatness!
