Hey guys. As some of you know i made a resolution to only use snuff in the new year. Its going well. But before 2010 i decided to try out a few new things. Redman was like sex the first time but after that it kinda sucked, i ended up tossing out half a bag full. Anyway this is about the US camel snus that many of you hate 
So there i was walking around clearwater beach and i decided to take a trip to the Hess gas station. The “sold cold” sign caught my eye. I decide to go with mellow because im sick of all these generic mint flavors. I got myself a tin and opened it up… Not much to say, so ill make it quick. Type: Small white portions Smell: Some kinda sweet sticky raw egg batter? Very slight citric hints if you look for it. Somewhere under there i may have detected a hint of tobacco but who knows? lol Flavour: Hardly any. It took 30 min to get any juice going and after 30 min you are no longer getting nicotine delivery. Price: $2.99 US for a Special Trial Pack. 12 portions per tin. So the stuff is not all that great. But hey, 2.99 at your local gas station. Its mess free, convenient and not bad if you are waiting for you Northerner order to come in
And the lesson learned is don’t find yourself in the circumstance of “waiting for your Northerner order”! (-; Good review mcosta. Nailed It!
yeah the camel snus has saved my ass a few times. Plus it turned my girlfriend onto real snus (portion snus) which she uses for pleasure and waking up very irregularly (she doesn’t take a portion often but loves it when she does)
I am curious about the new large size Camel Snus Robust flavor. Just haven’t found it locally yet.
tom, is that a swedish or american one?
Answering for Tom… It’s a new American Camel flavor.
ohh cool. i hope its not as sweet. then it might be pretty nice
All the reviews I’ve seen (2 to be exact) say they are still sweet, but all American lip tobacco is sweet, so maybe it’s not as bad as the other SNUS.
Not all American lip tobacco is sweet. Copenhagen is actually rather salty.
So the stuff is not all that great. But hey, 2.99 at your local gas station. Its mess free, convenient and not bad if you are waiting for you Northerner order to come in I think you’re being too kind. I was in that position once. After 5 minutes of this “snus” I spit it out annd decided I’d rather do without for a week or so than use this. The flavor to me was like aspartame sweetened coffee. In other words: vile. I still shudder remembering that. urhgh!
So who is ready for the camel nasal snuff?
I would much rather take a lip of Copenhagen, which I do like and use, than US Camel Snus. The Copensnuff does have some sweetness to it, not sure if it’s added, but it’s just right, and not overbearing. I’ve been packing my lip with Copensnuff at home after work, and portion snussing at work and out.
@goatcheeser Your kidding? Yes? (-;
I’d try a Camel snuff. I smoked US Camel lighs and was loyal loyal loyal. The US snus sucks though this mellow crap is better than the other two IMO. That being said, if I ran out of snus (yeah…right) I’d buy a can of dip before this stuff. I didn’t like the Swedish Camel either. That one wasn’t too sweet, but too salty. I think I’ve maxed out at 10 minutes with one of these. Ugh…and to think that someone is getting paid for flavor development.
look at the fish products the swedish eat or their salt candies. I bet most snus seem as sweet to a sweede as us camel snus does to us. I bet camel had scienctist to figure that out. Well off to work I go oh boy.
