    Offroad Frosted/Indian Snus/Phantom Blue (White)

    Offroad Icemint is being replaced with Offroad Frosted.

    http://www.northerner.com/snus/North...Portion-21892/

    Don't know what to think of this, if we already have Thunder Frosted, wonder how similiar the taste will be?



    Also, two new snuses hit the market:



    From BuySnus:
    Chaini Khaini Mango Snus
    A new snus produced in India for the Swedish snus market. The mango flavored snus has a composition of tobacco with mango which gives it a very refreshing taste.



    From BuySnus:
    Chaini Khaini Spice Snus
    A new snus produced in India for the Swedish snus market, this one with a wide range of exotic Indian spices like cardamom, ginger, mint, parsley, etc. The spices are used vividly to produce the tobacco flavors as well as distinctive in their own ways. The spice flavor with natural essence has definitely redefined the tobacco industry.

    For those curious, "Harsh International, a company under MAHAK Group of companies..." is the company that is doing Chaini Khaini.

    http://www.chainikhaini.com/about.htm Their website, left.

    Also, don't know if anyone has seen this - but I think it's worth trying. Might be better, maybe the windex flavor has been removed.

    Phantom Blue now in WHITE portion!

    The Indian snus interests me, is it loose? Or "filter", as they call it?

      I'm not interested in the mango, but the spice sounds interesting.

        I'm also interested in the Spice one. I like the Offroad Mango Creme, so this other one might be good as well.

          The 2 Indian flavours are the first 'new' flavours that have me excited to try for quite a while!

            They call it "filter tobacco", on their website.

              I am just curious about the OR Frosted and why the change?!

              Will it taste like the Thunder or be more minty? I will probably order a can just so I can see for myself since Thunder Frosted is my fav.

                I would assume it's to have a Frosted flavor that isn't a sterk. As of now when it comes to mint, it's General Mini Mint or Fellinni, and then Thunder Frosted. Many people coming to snus want a mint flavor (because if they're coming from Camel "SNUS" Frost) it's the easiest to approach, but find a mini to be a bit small, and a Sterk to be a bit much. I would assume this is to bridge the gap and make something approachable to those brand new to Swedish Snus.

                That would be my best guess.

                  Well I think the Frosted Mini's are only 8mg of nic and find it to be the closest to the 'Camel' Frost so far. I realize that the General mini mint is dry and closer to the size of 'Camel' Frost, but I don't taste the same mint in the General like I do in the Thunder...but that is just me.

                  I will most def give them a try simply because I am a mint freak.

                  I hope that you are right Chad, because unlike myself, a lot of people going from the Camel Snus to the real thing are a bit wigged out by the difference. I showed some 'real' snus to a guy that had used Camel Snus here in the US and he said yuck those are brown and nasty looking and wouldn't even try one. I am sure that if he had tried one he would have never looked back. He also pronounced Snus wrong and it was hard for me to not correct him :P !!

                        LOL I KNOW!!! WTF is hard about saying Snooose, it isn't hard at all. He said it just like you wrote. I just turned my head and snickered a little.

                            From V2...

                            "We changed flavor and design on the new Offroad Frosted. Due to different tobaccos the taste is not the same as Thunder Frosted, but
                            very close. All Offroads has been redesigned and are changed a bit in the tobacco types."

                              Also, the Chaini website says it has 6 flavors of filter snus(big and small) of:

                              Mint
                              Green Apple
                              Cinnamon
                              Lemon
                              Cardamom
                              Strawberry

                              I don't see the Spice and Mango listed on the site.
