I am a new snusser. I have been using the product for about a month now, and love it. When using Skruf Stark, I have noticed that it makes my tonsils itch. Has anyone else experienced this? I have used other strong snus brands without this irritation. Any ideas?

I've seen some mention here of people who believe they're allergic to something in Skruf. Perhaps it's the rose oil? Do you have other allergies? -

It could also just be the higher nicotine content if you're not used to sterks. If you are, though, it's probably the rose oil as others stated.Comment
