    General Sterk (not Extra)

    I have been pleasantly surprised with my favorable reaction to the Sterk! I think this one deserves more attention, and for a 11mg snus I find it very smooth. I have not been using extra Sterks, trying to avoid building a high nic tolerance, and because they can be rough. But after a year of snus I am almost exclusively using Grov original, General original, and really enjoy laying on a general sterk as a treat. I suppose that the fact that it is a strong white has to do a lot with my enjoyment. Good clean peppery taste, and just enough extra nic to get you going. Laying a good supply of this one, and I highly recommend adding it to a must try list.

    This has been my go to snus for most of my snus life. I like it because of its great flavor and that it lasts through long medical classes.

      This is one of my favorites!

      I like it because it's a white portion and a sterk, and has the flavor of General White but just a little bit stronger.

      It really doesn't get much discussion, it's nice to see others who use it!

        i was disappointed with General Sterk, but im thinking i didnt give it a fair shake. I tried it when i was still trying to quit the smokes, so i preferred GES at the time.

          It's a fine snus, but I just don't care for whites.

                This is one of the few whites I do like, I think that the nature of the white portion works well in this snus, kinda smooths it out and makes it tolerable. Wish I had found this one earlier. Ettan white and Grov white are not pleasant to me. Although the Lucky whites were better than the original portion too IMHO. Its funny how I am always detecting those subtle differences and developing a strong preference, part of the ongoing snus changing taste thing.

                      hahahaha tom.

                      yeah i think general sterks only fault is being a white portion. otherwise i do find it a very agreeable snus, and one of the better white portions out there.

                        I recently got a few cans of the Sterk after not having it for a long time. Here's something weird though: I've been using a lot of Thunder over the last couple of months, but when I started having a few of the General sterks again, I got a little of the old burn. Not much, but it was there at first. Wonder where that came from?
