    welcome... I use los pretty infrequently, but when I do It's almost always gotlands. If they would just make the flader in los, I'd be set.

        Thanks for the welcome. Peaceful place you've created here; I will do my best to keep it that way.

        It's been very interesting reading through this forums old posts. Having finally made it through them all, I can truly say I've learned a lot. Pathetic as it sounds, I've solely used Ettan until last year. Only Los. Didn't realize there were portions. My fraternity brother taught me to use snus "like a man." That meant pinch, smash on box, brush off and place.

        So I've been having fun trying handbaking and portions. And though it seems strangely effiminate, I've purchased an icetool to say thanks to the site owners. Snus tools, who knew?

        So sorry I wrote a novella, and thanks for the welcome and the education!

          Gra, it's not pathetic, just the way snus is used over there. Folks here do the same thing with cigarettes.

          But users here, snus is so "different", of course we try everything. But we are the only established snus market that behaves this way, why General STILL has like 70% market share.

            Welcome aboard Gra!

            "Peaceful place" .... I like that! Is there a new sub-group started?

            Actually I am also quite new, to both snus and the forum. I tried los
            on my last order and had a prismaster thrown in for free. Looks too
            much like something used for suppositories for me. I just relied on
            my Copenhagen years to scrunch up some and stuck it it. Worked
            great and am using the prismaster to frighten the kids!

            First time I opened a can I had to check for earthworms but the taste
            was distinctively better. Does make me wonder if there's a Swedish doppleganger of me in some swedish factory swapping some worm dirt
            in a tin or two.

            Any-hooo, glad to see another new person around.

                Newbie Here

                Hello Snuson peeps. I am a new member here and I also am a fairly new user of snus. I just wanted to introduce my self and say hello. I use an off brand that many probably don't like or use. Its the oomph brand wise snus from the northerner. I like it however have read mixed reviews on it. Any suggestions as to what else might be a good match similar to what I am currently using. I have tried many other brands but still nothing like the wise brand snus. I like all of what I have tried some more than others but was curious what the snuson community thought about this. Thanks

                  I am sorry but I have to ask! You are running a snus webstore and havent tried any of the snus you are selling?
                  You have plenty of good stuff to try General wise use some of that! As for the wise, you will find that nothing else, to me anyways, in the swedish world taste like wise!~

                    As a note to the comment posted above. I have tried many different brands and flavors. So as a vendor I have a lot of experience in this brand and flavor market of snus. I was just wondering if anyone knew more about the Wise brand and flavors and what there experience is. Thank you and snus on...

                      I think some people use wise but that it is a very niche product!

                        Clubsnus, nothing exists like the wise/oomph snus. It is a unique beast, "purified" snus whatever the heck that really means. Bit nothing else out there will come even close to being like it.

                        Typical time to get "used to" traditional Swedish snus is about a month. I would encourage you to just keep trying the other Swedish and soon, that will be what I love.

                        My current personal favorite is LD White. Not a strong flavor (much less so than General white)

                            Umm, fine????


                            Not a subject I have ever given much thought to, no one's portions have ever bothered me. But I suspect most would say it is better than average. Certainly, that has always been LD Black's reputation. But the whites are good, kinda silky.

                              The only reason i ask is because i wanted to know if they are compareable to the onyx portion material! I personally find that gotlands and jaks brands have the most comfy portion materials!

                                LD is quality snus. The portion material is good, I can at least say that much,
