New Mint Snus?

[chadizzy1]

Ok, so the cats out of the bag.

Apparently, a REALLY limited test was done recently for a new snus from Swedish Match (North America), not Sweden for a new mint snus. Although I heard about it, the people who told me about it swore me to secrecy.

Well, now people are posting about it other places, forums, a blog writer I know is posting about it soon from her experiences with it, and apparently it's due out Early February from what I've heard. Since word is spreading about it, I figure we can talk about it now.

Since I wasn't in this test - I am curious - who tried it and what did you think?

All I know is it's a regular sized white portion mint snus.

Chad, are you sure its a white portion? :wink:

Not really, but I'd assume is SM is testing it, it'd be a step up from General Mini Mint, and maybe they were listening to some people asking for Triumph, so they're going in that route with a white portion. And from an earlier email a few months ago I heard it was a white portion.

But I wasn't in the test....so that's just my guessing/hearsay.

Maybe you could tell me more, eh? C'mon....

I assume it will be a mint-flavored 1g white portion, similar to Triumph Mint. Hopefully the portions are long like 0102 and Camel.

it looks kinda like a white portion but I don't know if it is officially. Tastes alittle like Triumph but has an odd flavor that I just can't identify. I thought they sent samples to all the members here. i guess they simply forgot about Chad.

LOL they knew you couldn't keep a secret.

It is a Swedish Match product.I have tried one of the varieties they were testing because my buddy was picked as a tester.There were two varieties that they sent out for testing.The one I tried was in a white portion was like an 8mg portion Mini mint flavor wise but with a much fresher taste.I think they offered it to GetSnus forum users because GetSnus is owned by Swedish Match.

GetSnus is owned by Swedish Match.

I thought it was Cigars International?

Probably. Me and Veganpunk were both left out because we love Triumph so much, they knew we'd be screaming from the mountains about a new regular sized mint snus if we got our hands on it.

I've read in various places that GetSnus is owned by Swedish Match AB. Not positive that information is correct, but that's always been my understanding.

Ya alot of people did not know that but its true.I did the same thing when I found out "Oh yeah Cigars International is owned by Swedish Match!!".

Chad, why the heck do you think Getsnus sucks so much about what they carry. 90% of what they carry is Swedish match product. Jonathan has proven that he can get other stuff, Getsnus just has always chosen NOT to.

Besides the fact I simply don't like anything Swedish match makes, I choose to not use them for other reasons as well. Their business practices at times would make Philip Morris blush.

And remember their forum??? You are not allowed to talk about their competitors on the forum?? what do you think the reason is.

Hence why I haven't ordered from them in a long, long, long time.

I got tired of having to put in orders ALL OVER the place. It used to drive me nuts.

And Jonathan is doing a great job. I have yet to see a bad ClubSnus review. Thumbs up!

[johnsnuser]

I am going to order from ClubSnus in about a week.They are located just two hours away from me.
