Make the snus feel stronger?

[Svarthvitt]

I wondered if it was any way to make the snus feel like it's stronger than it really is? ie. If you make your lip dry before you put up your snus, it gives more of a burn than it usually does. Any other ways?

This is probably a pretty dumb question, but I no longer get the wonderful "burning" feeling in my upper lip that I got the first months of snusing.

Thanks in advance.

Just stop using that side of your mouth for a couple weeks. The tissue will soften up again. Then switch back.

[Svarthvitt]

Well, I normally use it straight on front, and when i put it on one of the sides it's hardly noticable at all. : /

Svarthvitt, I have no idea, but I guess your last burning sensation must've been very long ago. Mine was only 18 months ago, so I remember it quite well - and I surely don't miss it. :lol:

Cheers!

[Svarthvitt]

Well, I guess I might have been using the wrong words, as I'm not american or english.
What I meant is like the feeling you get in your upper lip perhaps like the first time you try Nick and Johnny.

[Subtilo]

Ah, the old burning sensation. I miss it.

I (almost) never get it from portions anymore, but sometimes lös does the trick. Probably because of the combination more snus/stretched tissue. I dunno.

I also miss that burn; maybe you could try something with a mint flavor...

At least you don't have to deal with "pickle lip" anymore. :wink:

Try General Wintergreen in portion. Pretty strong stuff that I thought I didn't like from the first one, but learned to like quite a bit before I ran out. Strong burn for me. It's one of the brands sold at some tobacco stores in the States.

Don't know why but Knox, both portions and loose, give me a little bit of a burn if I haven't had it for a while.

[Svarthvitt]

Well OK, I'll try Knox some time.
Unfortunately, I have not seen General Wintergreen in any stores here in Norway, and I'm sadly not old enough to order snus from any websites.
So, I guess I'll have to manage without it.

[TheJR]

Well you can dip it in a glass of whiskey :wink: believe me, It´s working!

[captncaveman]

Here are some ideas none are good. Put some hot sauce on that mother ****er. Get some broken galss and add it to your snus, punch your self in the lip before you stuff'er with snus, add battery acid, add alot of salt, agitate the hell out of your gums when you brush your teeth, maybe stop brushing your teeth

Like some have mentioned above you can alternate the sides of your mouth, and if you use portions you can double up.

I do not think that you can make it stronger without adding more.

Also, if you do in fact use portions you can flatten it a bit more so it has more surface area to soak it up!

Oh yeah, take your snus blonde! Skruf lös is my mainstay, but a blonde Röda will still give me a kick.
It's only messy untill you get good at it. :wink:

Hold the prilla tighter with your lip, and maybe put another in right after the last one. Works with Skruf Stark, anyway.
