I was talking with a friend in Sweden and he said that LS Loose isn't going to be produced anymore.Can anyone verify this?If this is true,what a drag,it is one of the better offerings in the loose category.

So hmmmm, the overseas Lucky Strike seems to be known as one of the best snus there is to Americans that have tried it, yet here in the US we can not get it due to the name conflict.

Jeez I love when things make complete logical sense. LOL. -

I would also assume,if true it's based on sales.I was looking for to see if anyone had heard this.And the statement about not being able to get it here,if you know people out of the country it's not so hard to acquire.Comment

Problem for any non Swedish Match brand. You aren't gonna break in a snus in Sweden. If you aren't General, or maybe Ettan, most no one in Sweden is gonna use you.

Maybe then they can reintroduce it under a new name and try again.Comment

Even though the company was started in 1835, it was Samuel Fielder who applied for permission to manufacture snus in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1785. Today, Fielder & Lundgren produces -
A whaile back, several of us wrote Lucky Strike (BAT) asking them to consider other ways to keep Lucky available for sale to the USA.
