    Ya im not much on the wintergreen flavor myself.But I would have to say it is ten times better than General Wintergreen.Its kind of a background wintergreen flavor,not too strong and mixed with a natural tobacco taste.All in all, pretty good stuff.I would have to say my favorite flavor in the Thunder lineup is the new Berry flavor though.

        OH lord. I am finishing off a can of that, it is over-bearing with berry. I am not a fan. Looks like you and I are total opposites :P I have another can coming to me if I don't have to crack it(while waiting on my other orders) I will be glad to trade it for something you don't like that I might.

          Congratulations on the big win! Hope you have freezer space! :lol:

          I only buy one or two cans of new stuff at a time, just to be sure I like it. Made a huge mistake of ordering a roll of General Mint Mini when I first started snus and turns out, I don't care for it too much, so it's still sitting in the back of the freezer..

            Total congrats, that is so cool.

            And JPono, I love General Mini Mint, but not enough of a nic kick for me. I have to have the strong Thunder Frosted mini to get my fix.

              Thanks JPono.Yeah I buy too much snus by the way.Maybe I should stop buying rolls.And Christi,I also find it to be overpowering on the berry flavor.Not something I could use all the time.But now Roda Lacket Claq qui I cant get enough of.And we can work out a trade anytime.I have too much.

                Do you have a list up on the Snus Exchange?

                I have a bunch coming in and will edit my list with the things I will have to trade. Unfortunately most of what I will have will be V2, I think I have some Oden's Extra Stark Cin coming in tho.

                  Hmmm......

                  My first few snus orders I bought 5s, then escalated to rolls of unknown snus.....

                  Now I have learned my lesson and buy one or two cans of unknown snus. I figure that one can is enough to learn whether I hate a snus, and two is enough to learn if I love it. This way, I'll only ever ditch a can and a bit at max.

                  After the initial testing phase (which I'm still going through as there are so many great snusen out there), I'll order rolls again of the ones that I finally end up loving.

                  I learned my lesson by buying a roll of Skruf Original White. Although I quite like the flavour, it craps out too quick and then just tastes bitter. I still have 5 cans of that left. I give it to new snussers.....

                    Put those cans in the exchange!

                    Also congrats on the Swedish Match prize.

                      Actually Odens by Gajane is made by v2.They are their own company but v2 makes snus for othe people also with different brand names.I learned this because someone on another forum had some faulty odens replaced by contacting v2.

                        Most of my snus I buy direct from Swedish Match, so I generally stick to what I know & love. They really don't make much that I don't like, so like when something new comes along like the Grov Black for example, I knew I would like it and bought a roll.

                        Occasionally I will get some sampler rolls from buysnus.com too, one can is always enough for me to decide if I am going to like it or not.

                          I did not know that, thanks.

                              One can of a new brand is enough for me. After a few years of snus-use, one is able to tolerate even the worse brands, but still some brands are no fun to use - and sadly, 95% of the new brands on the market don't really fit to my tastes anyway.

                              It's about one year ago that I found a new favorite brand, and by that time I already had enough other favorites on hand, so it wasn't a problem to wait 2 months till another order was due.

                              Cheers!

                                What was the new favorite after all this time? I've been digging the plainer Swedish Match varieties myself. Grov, Ettan, and Röda have really been working well for me lately.
