    My thoughts on 02

    This isn't going to be a Chadizzy Super Deluxe Review To End All Reviews (tm), but I would like to let you know what I think about it.

    02 is nice. The flavor, to me, vaguely resembles the Lucky Strike flavor. Portion was extremely comfortable, moreso than most portions I'm used to. Good fit, nice material.

    I got a pretty decent nic hit soon after insertion and a good amount from that point on. The flavor stays for quite a while.

    One interesting thing is the no drip. I have a bad habit of tonguing my snus like a oh-shit-that-pizza-was-hot-upper-mouth-scab and so I'm used to them getting extremely juicy and saturating the back of my throat until I feel somewhat queasy. This snus did not drip even when tongued, but it did release flavor and get all kinds of mushy. It felt almost like a mudslide waiting to happen if it weren't in a nice sturdy teabag.

    All in all a great sterk. I have yet to try 01, but I'm looking forward to it!

    haha, is that a nice way of saying i get carried away? the main thing i try to do is talk about the snus, and not about the background (if possible), the genetic makeup of a cranberry, and any thing else that confuses people. that got me alot when i was new to snus. i couldn't find simple reviews.

    that no drip thing was interesting though. i did tongue it alot too, i imagine alot of people will. wasn't the portion just oh-so-comfortable? it was like camel's comfort in how it fit in the lip, but WAY more soft. great review!

      No, it was my way of saying I can't match your reviews. I was really looking forward to trying 02 once I read yours.

        what's weird, is i like reading more peoples reviews more than mine, haha. best part of a forum, is getting reviews from EVERYONE about a product.

              Similar to Lucky? Just what I was imagining. I will probably be pre-ordering a roll of this from Buysnus. Will I use an entire roll on a brand that is similar to Lucky? Yes. I have good feeling about this brand. That, and buying rolls on Buysnus is the way to go!

                Qor, I have one tin of Lucky left. I'm going to do a taste comparison between 01, 02, and Lucky tomorrow.

                But yes, to me the sterk has that outstanding toasted tobacco taste. Haven't tried 01 yet.

                  Although a dyed-in-the-wool meta-reviewer, I will do my best to refrain from reviewing reviews. However, I do look forward to trying the lab series.

                        VBSnus, that is good news to me! I enjoy using a mainstay snus (regular portions) and then having an occasional los snus (Oden's XS Kanel, Skruf Stark) and an occasional dessert snus. But I definitely love having a mainstay snus. Gustavus has been working just fine, but if something was a bit better, I would definitely take it.

                        Thanks,

                        -Qor
