Hi guys,
I am new to snus. Been sampling for about a month now. I am an ex Skoal mint user of about 10 years and am trying to find something to replace it. Preferably loose. I really don't like the feel of the bag with portioned snus. Too much like having a chunk of paper towel stuffed in my lip. Kinda have an aversion to it.
My habit is to dip once or twice during the day then I can go through nearly a can in 4-6 hours once I am home. Much of this while drinking a few beers watching T.V. and screwing around online..
I am having trouble finding a really strongly flavored snus that can compete with the beer flavor. With the Skoal this was not a problem but I find the mellow taste of most snus unable to stand up.
So far I have tried nearly all of the los snus from getsnus.com and have been most happy with Skruf Stark or the General original or ES. These so far have had the strongest flavor.
Aside from those two here is what I have tried so far:
Gotlandssnus yellow- Way to mellow. Didn't like the citris notes.
Gotlandssnus Anis- Yuk. Just yuk. Hated the anis flavor. Thank God this was free. I threw it away.
Grovsnus- Was ok.
Odens ES- Flavor was ok. Didn't like the consistency. Also, I was double dipping this for a few hours and ended hurling in the toilet about 5 times. Yeah, Like I was 13 and chewing the first time. This has kinda ruined the flavor of this snus for me
My fault.
Offroad Original- At first I loved this one. Subtle tea flavors I really lliked. Almost sweet smelling. Ok texture. Thought I would be ordering a sleeve of this. Oddly enough about halfway through the can I couldn't stand it anymore. Something about the flavor really turned on me.
So while I was a Skoal Mint junkie, when it comes to snus I seem to be gravitating towards strong tobacco flavors rather than mint or otherwise flavored varieties.
So, can anyone suggest a few brands with a really strong tobacco flavor? Doesn't have to be an extra strong variety, just BOLD.
Thanks guys.
