I dont know if you guys saw this but The Northerner is selling a 17 mg nicotine snus , its called Oden so any of you tried this one yet ? I ordered a can of original and a can of cinammon so i 'll teel you what i think of them as soon as they arrive! AP

It was just announced today. I ordered some. Seems a couple of guys from snuson got pre release samples, they liked it.

I like the los because if i need more nicotine I can make a bigger pinch.

I’ve experienced something strange lately. I have been pinching snuff since ca 3 years, and daily for ca 1 1/2 year now. But then suddenly a week ago I became totally obsessed with Swedish Snus!! I now consume incredible amounts daily of this! I have almost stopped snuffing altogether. As I live in Scandinavia, it’s easy to get the loose Snus. Almost every store sells it, though the portion Snus I have to order from Sweden. It’s like I suddenly need the tobacco flavor in my mouth - and I pinch LARGE :o) Grovsnus and General in loose form, and Skruf in portion. Has anybody experienced such a change in snuff/snus habits?

yeah viking, i had kind of the same thing lateley and i only have camel snus so i’d hate to see what the real snus does to me :). I agree it’s prolly just a phase and i tend to use snus most of the day at work but then binge on snuff in the evening when i get home and am trying to relax.

I like snus too (hated when i first tried ) but nasal snuff is my first choice !!!

I started with snus instead, and even though I really love the combination of snuff and snus, the snus is still my main tobacco source. Gotta love the feel of a nice pris or portion in your lip. Bigblue: “You know it’s like; Snuff is my lady. : Snus is my whore.” Love that!

I’m through a little over half my first can (that was a freebie from getsnus.com). I can feel myself getting hooked. I’m a bit scared of that. I also am only taking about half the snuff I was prior to this. I’m trying to resist the urge to re-order. I made two big orders of snuff instead. Getsnus is very clever in giving the first can free.

Even though I swore myself off of snus forever, I’m really wanting to try the Jakobsson’s Ice Fruit snus. Has anyone had that?

I agree lxskllr. Metropol made the best peppermint snus, bar none.

Johndeer> The problem is that it TASTES SOOOO GOOOD!!! :o))) I love snuff, and still pinches, but these days I am insatiable regarding snus. General, Skruf, and Grovsnus fills my mouth, and I LOVE it :o) I haven’t had snus since I began snuffing a couple of years ago, but now I ordered 10 cans of Skruf stærk, white from Sweden, and in 10 min I am going to pick it up at the post office! YUM!!! :o) Apart from that I enjoy Fribourg & Treyer Morocco and Seville these days. I like the F & T better and better.

Hey there im from the states and i been using dip tobacco for about 8 years and was curious about snus had a grandmorther that use to use it but i saw the Oden snus and had to buy it from how the can looks and i mean ive always wanted to try snus would you guys say snus is about the same as dip tobacco and is there any certain way im suppose to use snus?

Well 17gs of nicotine shouldnt be that bad i go threw about a can of copenhagen fine cut a day i just pack it on the side of my cheek so no spitting ? do i just swallow the tobacco spit? or what

sounds good to me what are the ice tools for and is snus supposed to be cooled? in the fride or freezer or what?

the pris master is what I prefer mostly because of the cost and I’ve gone through three of them all lost. I like it for when going somehwhere it’s a lot cleaner and qucker then prising by hand.

Bob - I too got a Prismaster, and it’s a fantastic invention in all its simplicity! I order my Ettan and Skruf Portion from Sweden, and get it in only two days, so it’s always very fresh. I am a dedicated snuffer too, but to my own surprise am going through a period of complete obsession with snus :o) I remember trying American dip when I lived in the US, but there is a distinct difference in taste between that and Swedish snus! It depends on the way of fermenting I believe. Swedish snus is not fermented. Btw a Danish snus has seen the light of day in Off-Road. I haven’t tried it yet, but perhaps some of your guys did?

Offroad icemint loose is very good Viking!

like the offroad except the mint ones.

Just received my cans!!! The Kanel is really good.

Ok guys, never tried snus but I dip and chew now and again and would like to try snus. I tend to like plainer tasting stuff in all of my various tobaccos, so can you help out a prospective newbie to snus and recommend and brand and dealer who ships to the UK?

snuffster, I can’t help on the distributor, but snus brands I can. Ettan, Grov, Gustavus, are all basically tobacco flavored. Most people like either Grov or Ettan, a few like both. General is the most popular, with a slight pepper and citrus flavor. Then you can get wild and move to the really flavored ones.Very few snus flavors overpower the tobacco, Offroad is an exception in most cases. Depending on your nicotine tolerance you might want to avoid the stark/extra stark/ super stark varieties. I personally prefer Gotlands yellow, Ettan and Phantom Blue. Phantom has a earl grey flavor.

snuffster this is the site I order my snus from http://www.buysnus.com/. If you put “GoldenBoy” in the fiel when signing up, you get 10% off on your first order and I get some points. Feel free to do so As far as brands you should really try the General its just the best in my opinion. Then youll have to dicide wether you want portion or lös snus. The lös snus has to ne formed by hand or with a Prismaster. The portions are much easier to use, but I think they don´t taste as good. Have fun

www.northerner.comThey ship to UK. They also have some try-out sets. I don’t know if they do the refferal thing, so if you want to be nice go with GoldenBoy’s. buysnus won’t ship to my state.

Thanks guys, appreciate it. When I do my next big order of stuff I’ll be including some of your recommendations, and thanks for the offer Goldenboy.

I forgot to mention that Northerner sells snuff, too, so you can stock up on snuff while you’re trying out snus. Cheers

Yeah, just logged on and had a look at the site, a useful company to know about, cheers

Yeah northener.com sells F&T snuffs at a amazing prices. But they won´t ship to me

snuffster I would say don’t even bother with the portion snus. From what you’ve said you like on this list I really see you feeling that the los will be a much better fit. Plus you get more for your buck. The fact is most snuses really taste more like tobacco then most chews. Though if you like cope I would recomend Grov as being the closest to that. Not the same but the most similar well enjoy.

What did you do to upset them GoldenBoy?

lol nothing, you should ask what did my country do to uspet them but I´m okay with buysnus.com theyt 6th roll concept seems worth it. Yeah Snuffster portions suck, they just don´t taste as good. You should really get the General, the slogen is “The one taste”. I could sign that XD

I prefer the portions , they tastes more than los for me ! Snuffster you have to try ettan is awesome !!

I recomend general and ettans both. ettans is an anomolay as the cut is medium not coarse or fine. fines are easier to use and stronger but less flavourfull.

Oh wow, I didn’t know Northerner sold snuff too. I’d like to try the Odens, but I still have some cans of General Xtra Sterk, of which I have a portion at the moment.

I don’t mind the higher nic ones since regular portion snus takes two bags to make me feel much of anything.

Im not into the high nic stuff, since I don´t want to strengthen my caving. By the way my snus did´t make it here yet, and I picked up some smokes, because I´d get kinda grumpy. I don´t know why, but not even Rooster could help really. I just say to myself Ill be a non smoker when I get the snus. I don´t know why but northerner will ship to me now. So I ordered some snuff to see wich one would make it here faster.

I got Fred Stoker’s catalog today (my apologies to anyone who wanted to get the discount for having me as a refferal. I didn’t find out about that until after I had ordered their catalog). Anyway, I see they offer their own brand of snus in several flavors. Has anyone tried this? Oh, since I have my own catalog now, and anyone is interested, you may use me as a refferal (we both get discounts), just whisper me your address and I’ll mail you the postcard.
