Bla. Is it the best los ever?

[Veganpunk]

So I got a can of this yesterday. I just spit out my first pris of it, so it could be too early to tell, but I think this is the best los I've ever had. I loved the Gotlands, but it slid on me within 45 mins. Bla lasted over two hours. The flavor (which I still can't describe, but it's very good!) and nic lasted the whole time. Very sticky and easy to handbake. I need to get a few more cans of this stuff.

I haven't tried it due to my stance on the caramel coloring. Also, it sounds like it'll be more difficult to get in the future, and I already have a couple favorites that are going to be tricky. I don't need to add to the hassle :^D

You should at least try it. But I know you, you don't like trying new things, Mr. Never Tried Discreet! :wink:

Hey now, I've tried Discreet :^P

It's ok, but as expected, it's not what I look for in a tobacco product. Did I get that from you, or daruckis?

[Veganpunk]

Must have been Daruckis. I don't remember sending you one.

I have to sorta agree about bla. I would not say that it is the best snus ever, imo that title goes to Ettan, but it is an excellent snus when not compared to Ettan. A very subtle pure tobacco flavour, with hints of chocolate and what reminds me of hazelnut. I do not taste those things, but I do smell them. Taste to me is of a well rounded blend of tobacco.

i really like it also, but they dont have it at buysnus, which is where ive been doing my roll stocking of jti brands to take advantage of my 6th roll. so i guess im just not getting any more of it.

and yeah i sent the discreet. its awful stuff, i had to get rid of it.

vegan...i put Bla up there with Grovsnus and Ettan...its definitely some good stuff

[f. bandersnatch]

To provide a dissenting opinion:

When this stuff first same out, and lxs and others were all like "its got additives, oh no!" I was like "f*ck it, I'll use it if it's good."

Problem is, the smell and presence of e150a actually does detract from my enjoyment of this stuff. E150a is a common additive, and, as far as I know, there is nothing wrong with using it, but it is something that I identify in both the smell and caramel-like taste of bla that really drives me crazy. All I taste is this weird slightly sweet caramel flavor and a slight longing for a lip of ettan.

I am not advocating against anyone trying this stuff, as this is just one very strange and particular man's opinion, and could very possibly exist only in my mind with no basis in reality whatsoever.

Honestly, I am happy I have not really fallen in love with the stuff, as it is probably going to be difficult to obtain in the very near future.

I really like Blå, and I'm planning on grabbing a roll or two from northern in the last couple weeks I have. However, I'd suggest trying some Landströms and Gellivare before they become unavailable. Landströms knocked down Ettans as my favourite lössnus, and I'm planning on getting another three or four rolls of it if I can. Unfortunately, I'm hitting the point where my mini-fridge is actually running out of space. Since I still live with my parents who dislike tobacco but don't rag on my for the massive snus and snuff collections, putting it in the large fridge or freezer just isn't an option, as it would cause problems with them. But, another few rolls, and my mini-fridge will quite literally be front to back, floor to ceiling full of snus.

It was too sweet for me.

i said that about Ettan, snusdog can verify

[Snusify]

Blå is in my rotation now between Ettan and Grov.

[CopenSomeGrizzly]

I just took my first pinch (hillybilly) from this can and I am quite pleased with it's flavor it is a great snus and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in trying something new.


Blå has an interesting flavor as it tastes much like Chocolate mixed with a quality tobacco flavor. Great Product.

This, pretty much.
