Letting snus breathe?

[redheadedmax]

Anyone else think snus tastes better after the tin has been open for a few days or do I have noob taste buds?

[lxskllr]

I've heard that said before. I don't have a preference. It does taste different after being open awhile, but not better to me, just different. I like them both ways equally.

theres a couple that i think taste better after there open and out for a day or so general being one and thunder op the second

The flavor "mellows out" after a few days. It also gets a bit drier. I prefer moist and potent snus.

I agree, but the difference isn't radical, and the nic hit seems just as good.

I enjoy the moist and potent snus as well.

I prefer moist snus. This new batch of coffe/van is really moist and somewhat bitter than all the other batchs. If I leave a sealed tin out for a week or so it mellows out somewhat and tastes better. But I have to put 2 drops of coffee on each portion to get it back to the moisture level I prefer. I was pretty disappointed untill I figured out what to do.

All the previous batches were from Getsnus and were perfect. As a result I'm starting to think they don't keep their stock chilled. Apparently thats fine for the coffe/van [and my preferance] but surely not for other brands of snus.

I have 6 rolls of coffe/van in my freezer with a best by date of 12-5-09 that I got from getsnus and they are great, much better than the new batch.

The remaining 10 rolls from the new batch will probably age and get better. But being in the freezer it may take awhiile. As a result I bet they will last several years and end up being perfect. So I ain't complaining.

Glad I figured out how to fix the new ones.

This makes a big difference in the taste.............for me, anyway.

Even if snus is just a tad too dry it really makes a difference to how the snus bakes and it can feel uncomfortable under the lip.

I will air my snus out for 30 mins if their is a strong ammonia smell.

I have been known to dip myself retarded on a number of occasions. Fortunately snus restores my sanity.

So I dip and snus, like a yo yo back n forth.

Aha

same,

I got 2 of those snus starter kits that came with 16 different brands. I was like a kid in a candy store

shoved endless portions in my lip in a very short space of time, then felt completely wired. It was then i read the booklet that came with the kits that suggested if you were going try a lot of the them only use them for a minute each, woops.

Getting this thread back on track and answering the original question. No redheadedmax, it is not your Noob tastes. I have found over the years that some snus tastes better if left out a few days before use, some significantly better. Phantom Brown is the best one I remember. hated it when first used, but someone PM'd me that suggestion to just let them sit for 3 days. A completely and so much better to me snus after I let them air.

So again, some of us may react differently, haven't found it true with many snus. But the ones it is??? Yes, big difference.

[Roo]

Fresh snus goes from my freezer to my face. IMO leaving it open will just dry it out. But I've never been into certain snus as mentioned by sage that has a foul odor that one must purge before using. I don't do that with food either.
