As for snus, a you should try the General. I don´t care about the others. I don´t want to try the high nick ones, no need to strengthen my addiction. General is all I need really. 
All the Nick and Johnny varieties are good too. edit: In fact I use mostly Nick and Johnny Strong. You’d think that the extra nicotine would cause me to use more over a certain period, but in fact I use much less. The portions last longer and are more satisfying. Before I got this roll of N&J Strong I was snussing a lot using regular portions - between 4-6 portions. Now only use 1 or 2 per day.
Thanx to everyone who posted. I am very interested in trying SNUS. My wife on the other hand had other thoughts. If I can sum it up , or translate from wife to normal, " you are lucky that I don’t make a big deal about you snorting snuff up you’re nose" then something about, shoving a stupid tea bag up your gums… I don’t know, I tuned out after a bit. Oddly, she would rather I smoke cigars and pipe as opposed to smokeless tobacco. i don’ get it. this may have to be a secret venture.
Hahahahah dont worry Nightcap my mother said almost the same to me when she saw me spitting the portion of my mouth !!!
After my wife learned there was no spit involved in snus, and saw my tobacco expenditures drop by 60% she got much quieter. She’s still a little bothered by los, but she’s coming around.
women… why do we even try…
My wife wasn’t too enthusiastic about my snus either, but once she saw that I had cut my tobacco bill in half by switching to snus and she got a new coat from the savings, she shut right up. Snus is now my mainstay. She uses snuff from time to time herself, so she’s OK with that too.
My wife doesn’t whine about the snuff, but doesn’t like it herself. As for the snus, she likes it ALMOST as much as I do.
I’m in the same category as sychodelix. My wife rarely smoked, and says she could never really enjoy it. She’d smoke a cigarette (more likely half of one and barely inhale) from time to time. Nagged me on and off about me smoking. Snuff made her angry at first, mainly becuase I was sneaking with it. Eventually she warmed up to it, but has only tried it a handful of times and says it didn’t do anything for her. I think mainly becuase she has a near perpetual nose blockage due to allergies. Then I showed her an article about snus told her I was curious, talked about it a bit with her and eventually bit the bullet and ordered some. When it arrived I offered it to her. She took it almost without hesitation, which really surprised me. Now she does a few every day (always mini portions-usually flavored), been about a week and a half now. She even asks for it. Weird, eh?
Well, based on recommendations from this thread I ordered myself portions of Ettan, Grovsnus and General along with Roda Lacket loose. I’ve never really liked any oral tobacco I’ve tried, Oliver Twists are OK but I have bought two packs in the past, used a quarter of each and let them dry out. I have tried twist a couple of times and didn’t get on with that at all. Despite this the thought of snus turned me into a madman, I have been impatiently waiting for the postie for the last few days, sticking my head around the corner to see if it had come yet every ten minutes. Yesterday was particularly painful, I saw a parcel on the floor, let out a little yelp of excitement and was gutted to see that it wasn’t even for me. Anyway, today my package arrived, I have in my first portion of General and I’m not disappointed! The nicotine delivery is just incredible, not too much, not too little and oh so mellow, like being 20 minutes into a pipe. Flavour is great too, nice and mild and I can’t stop licking the back of my teeth.
A little late but F&T does have 2 ounce tins (roughly 50g) as well so it’s hard to know when swedish-snus.com say 40g if they are being conservative and selling you the 2 ounce size or creative and selling you the one ounce size until you buy and check for yourself. I have a 2 ounce tin of F&T Princes on my desk so I know they exist!
I know they exist Snuffbox. We resolved this someplace on this thread or another. Northerner (swedish-snus) sells the regular 1 oz (which weigh in anywhere from 12-36 g, from what I remember!) They vary by weight and are indeed sold by volume. We were all amazed that they offered such low prices on F&T and were curious about the weight they marked and wondered if it was a good deal or an incredible deal! Someone who bought from there finally confirmed that they are the small (1 oz) tins.
Thanks, Xander. I missed a few posts and didn’t know this had been answered. Bummer they are the small ones. Actually the prices direct from the mill are more than fair, that’s how I buy them now.
I was dipping the Scotch snuffs for a while, and the wife didn’t like the spitting. I have quit that, as I didn’t want to aggrevate my gums. Though moist snuff is worse. I’ll try some chew soon, maybe for when we sit outside. I don’t much like stuff in my mouth, so it won’t be an often thing, at least I don’t think so. She isn’t a fan of my nasal snuffs, of course she will not try it, and that’s fine. But I’ll sniff it, and she isn’t bothered with it. No spit, no smoke, interesting variety of flavors, which I show her. Friends I have will try it too, but while they don’t dislike it, they don’t seem inclinced to take it up. My father who is a lifelong smoker, and says he’d like quit at times, just refuses to even think about trying it. Oh well. I like it. Oh, I tried a variety if snus, didn’t like it. The juice upset my stomach, and maybe the method of nicotine delivery, make me feel downright ill. Never felt like that with smoking or snuff.
