    Lös Selection

    So i went from portions to Lös about a month ago, and I must say: FLAVOR COUNTRY. I'm hooked on lös, but i feel like the selection of loose is slim compared to portions. I've tried pretty much all of them (except for taboca and montecristo of course) and feel like I am at the end of the lös road :-(

    BTW, offroad cranberry is surprisingly delicious!

    Yea, there aren't as many flavors as portions, but I don't feel I'm missing anything. I like the traditional snus flavors, and not so much the weird stuff. If there was anything I'd like to see, it would be a peppermint lös. Offroad's IceMint isn't bad, but there's a back flavor I don't get on with.

      You can get Taboca los in the US. Fred from Northerner told me that snus.com will have it in their US warehouse in a few weeks (which is good cause I like it and the roll prices are rediculously cheap!)

      As for minimal flavors, I tried them all, am happy with the ones I like and don't feel the need to explore portions. Well, maybe I'll try some strong minis for meetings...

      If you are really bored with tobacco, maybe give snuff a try....

        Hi Appleuzer!

        Don't know if you had the chance to try this year's Kardus but, if you're looking for the ultimate loose snus, Kardus is the one! Swedish Match has been manufacturing it since 2005 and they release it during the holiday season. This year was limited to 500 cans but, it's worth looking forward to each Christmas!

          appleuzer, dude if you like lös you have got to try the General Ekstra Sterk lös. I have used General lös for years and I think the General Ekstra Sterk lös has great flavor and texture.

                    I'm glad the los market isn't oversaturated with too many different brands. Makes me feel that the ones that are available are tried and true.

                    Though I would wonder what Onyx los would be like and with a metal lid...that would be something.

                      It would taste like Nick and Johnny los, which they don't make anymore :^/

                        With good reason? Was it not very good? From what I understand the portions and lös of the same brand can be very different.

                        It sounded good to me in theory

                          No, it was pretty good. I was ambivalent at first, but I was really enjoying it by the end of the tin. They discontinued it when I was finishing that first and only tin. I generally stay away from starks, but I would have bought N&J on occasion. It was very rich(like Onyx), but nice as a dessert snus.

                            wow great posts everyone! I have tried GES lös and it is great! I think it's my favorite one so far. I will have to try taboca from snus.com as soon as it becomes available.

                            lös ON!
