    Initial impressions...first taste of the real deal.

    My package arrived,

    2 cans of 02
    1 can of Oxyx
    1 can of Skruf white
    2 cans of Claq Qui

    ---

    After hearing the advice to NOT sniff the can while opened, well I just had to do it- I braced myself, and will each time I do it from now on, not bad.. def a pungency to this Swedish snus that sets it apart immediately.

    It tastes so much better.



    - 02

    First one I had to try was the 02- very enjoyable, definitely tasted the wood, nice fresh taste, pretty potent Vitamin N kick and durability- I think I lost track of time as I had to of had it in to the last drop a good 2+ hours, so super comfortable.

    Definitely something I will get again.

    ---

    Next one up to test was Onyx, besides the name triggering the image of a dark, there is a tangible difference from the 02 where you can almost taste the colors- 02 being a greener taste, and Onyx definitely being a dark one.

    Nice rich, and varying between the different notes of tobacco, citrus.

    I am looking forward to the last drop from this one as well!

    Certainly enjoyed this Onyx it is a heavy one... but certainly good enough to do at least once a day.
    Claq Qui- "Fight Club"

    I just popped one in.

    But I can tell it is going to be a staple.

    I really like its flavor profile so far.

    -- I must say I have done 3 of them throughout the day (I keep them in a while though)

    I am really happy about my new adventure.

        Especially with the Oynx. That is a once or twice a day snus for me.

        Decent order, welcome to the fun. :wink:

          I won't over do it-- although today I am going to dip into the Claq Qui~!

          Just must do it.

          Onyx is excellent stuff, I really look forward to pairing it up with a night of Guinness and Hoppy beer.

            I like Claq Qui alot, and I think General Sterk is like a white version of it.

              I'm almost done with my first can of Onyx, and have another one in the freezer. I can see how it could turn on you. I'm gonna wait awhile before starting the second tin. This is a good snus, that I don't want to turn.

                  Just popped a Skruf White portion before my workout..

                  I really like how it takes some time to rise to flavor, I can see myself using this a couple of times a day.

                  -

                  All in All this is so much better then smoking cigarettes.

                      I was wondering what the 02 stuff would be like. I'm tempted to try it out myself when my next paycheck comes in.

                        It has a light but steady taste, and a nice nic hit..

                        It is very enjoyable,

                        I certainly will be stocking it-- and honestly all of my choices thus far have far exceeded my expectations and have transformed me all the way to Swedish style oral tobacco.

                        In fact I will be getting all of them again I am sure of it.

                        I would recommend 02 to anyone, even if it is not for everyone's palate I am sure.

                          Ok after some settle time .. I currently feel.

                          That 02 and Skruf white portion are my two favorites thus far.

                          I am not really digging the Claq Qui as much as I started too, as it reminds me of whiskey after a while, and I am not the biggest fan of whiskey.

                          That plus it leaves my mouth tasting like 5 day old ass.

                          But that could just be the smithfield-farms flu.

                          I do enjoy the Onyx, but am saving that for the most part for a night of dressing up to the nines, and drinking dark hoppy beer all night...

                          Must say that my favorite every day staple is 02- I really like the clean power of it...
