I am a novice when it comes to using Snus and have a few questions for the seasoned veteran. I have been using the white portion mint from General. Do you place the pouch in the same place under your upper lip or do you vary the location? Is there a specific spot under your lip that is best? How long do you leave a single pouch in your mouth?
near the front alternating left and right sides. With a white portion if that is all I’d have I dip it in the lower lip.
Thanks for the answer, why the lower lip if a white portion?
Whites are drier than originals and barely drip, so you can use them anyway you like. I recommend you whites to start, then OP and los.
I find that either on the left or right side, between the fangs, or barely on the fangs produces the least juices
Whereever it is comfortable. Some people moisten whites on their tongues a bit before placing in the upper lip. Never felt the need with white portions myself to do that, if it is taking a while I might stick my tongue up there to “encourage” it. Other than that is the only rule is there are no rules. Ken
I have a question also. I know it has been said size dose’nt matter. I have been observing snus portions appear to be a lot smaller than the pieces of tobacco I’ve seen people in the baking snus videos. Why do they build them so large? And those pris tools make huge wads. And people just poke them into their mouths.
Because they can. Depending on my mood, or nicotine desire, or what I am doing will effect how I bake my snus, large or small prilla, looser or tighter, or I might even pinch and toss, or for that matter if I opt for a portion instead. A larger prilla/pris will be more tobacco, less discreet and if packed tighter will hold together well and last a long while, it might also take a while for the nic hit to develop. The truly great thing about los snus is OPTIONS. Ken
Gimpy because they are more manly and have a higher level of testerone which means that their extra body hair absorbs more of the nicotine. Jees read some fake made up science before asking perfectly legitimate questions. I really think that is because los appeals to people who’ve been snusing longer or already tend to have a higher tolerance to nicotine in general. Plus I think it is also that when documenting people are more likely to exagerate. However one of the reasons I like los better is that I can put the size pinch in that is most comfortable to me at the time. Another thing is that a large pris is easier and less akward then a large tea baggie of snus. I find larger portions to be very odd and akward feeling where as a large pris feels totaly comfortable to me.
I tried snus about 2 years ago, and wasn’t really impressed with it, but I ordered 6 cans and they arrived today. I ordered all Thunder, 2 cans of each: Wintergreen, Frosted and Extra Sterk. This is my first taste of wintergreen and have to say I like it. I ordered the snus so I can cut out my pipe smoking. I want to be totally smoke free. Stefan
good luck with completely smoke free. Definitely try thunder frosted long, very discreet and great lip feel taste and nic hit. Ken
