Skruf Stark (White Portion) Review. 15 Sep 2009.
This past week I decided it was time to venture back into the world of Bergamot. In my last article I wrote that I couldn't stand the stuff. But as I have noticed, tastes change, and I figured it was about time to give it a try again. My first snus on my "Adventure into Bergamot" is Skruf Stark (White Portion).
Usually, I don't make it a point to talk about the can. But Skruf makes one hell of a can. It's sleek, it's sexy, it's cool. Prior to trying Skruf Stark, I would rave about Offroad's portions as being the most comfortable. Now, after trying Skruf Stark, I'm going to say that these portions are just as, if not more comfortable than, my beloved Offroad. The portions feel almost silky against my gums. The snus is very soft, requires virtually no fluffing. The portions that come out of the can are just about perfect.
Now, as I said above, tastes change. I've noticed this in myself, as I've ventured away from my love of minis, and many other aspects of the snus I started with to the snus I use now. I can honestly say, this snus is pretty good.
Upon opening the can, I wasn't hit with the strong bergamot smell that I've noticed in most of the products that list bergamot as a key ingredient. Skruf Stark smells rather sweet, it has a quite pleasant aroma. The portion is strong (14mg Nicotine), and my usual Thunder Frosted has 16mg Nicotine, so this still packs quite a hit. I noticed it shortly after putting a portion in my mouth. The taste is very gentle, very mild. The bergamot is light, and is actually an enjoyable citrus taste. This product also contains Rose Oil as one of the key ingredients, which adds a light, flowery, herbal, sweet taste as well.These two flavors balance very well. The light citrus flavor of bergamot and the sweet, flowery taste of the Rose Oil mix quite well in the snus. This portion has virtually no drip, after an hour of having it in I never had it happen. But the flavor and the nicotine still come through in a major way. The taste is very smooth, mild, and perfectly balanced.
So as I begin venturing into the world of bergamot in the weeks to come, Skruf Stark was a great first stop. A mild flavor, a great nic hit, a cool can, and a pleasant aroma combine to make Skruf Stark a great snus, and one I can see myself ordering again.
