Ok I've been going through my stash of los out of the freezer one by one and finally got to the skruf stark.. Amazing flavor I've got to tell you and the perfect nic hit. I found myself pushing up with my tongue to get a bit or two to come down for a flavor explosion. I've read on here the product has lost quality though. The two cans I have the best by dates are 6/2010.. Hopefully the newer ones are at the same level. Next order I'm going to get two rolls of the skruf I'm liking it so much. I still have to try roda lacket Los and gote rape los but I doubt it'll be as good as this. I shoulda visited the skruf a long time ago!

I think yor safe eric, it seems to be the portions that have gone down hill. The Los in my opinion is still topnotch, that is if your willing to risk it to get it...........Originally posted by EricHill78 View Post -
I really enjoyed Skruf Xtra stark los and have never had a problem with quality from this product I've gone through roles upon roles and never once had a bad can. I'm not sure about their portions I have only purchased one can for me it didn't seem like it had the same flavor as the Los.Originally posted by EricHill78 View PostComment

I'm with ya there Eric and agree The Skruf Stark Los and skruf Extra Stark Los are topnotch, These along with General Extra Sterk los, General los and Roda Lacket Los are my favorites in Los so far... Roda Lacket Los is just as amazing, Wait till you try it... I really don't like the portions But the Los is awesome... You will see..Comment

Thanks guys on the heads up on the quality I'm sure it'll be alright now..
Jag, I enjoy the roda portions so I know the los will be a treat. It'll be the next one I open.
What I've noticed is that the los version of any snus seems to be better flavor wise don't know if it's just me. Man Snusgetter doesn't know what he's missin! LoL I don't want to open the can of worms again but if he's read down this far in the post you you know he's a bit curious! I'll stop.Comment

Eric I agree, I just ordered more myself, 90% of what I use is Los but to be honest I never heard anything negative about the quality. You know the Swedes are just damn picky about quality Snus...Comment

True Nomad, Im trying to think about the exact post. I think it stated something about the company changed something got larger their customer base got bigger so the quality went down hell I don't remember. All I know is I found a new favorite that's all that matters.Comment

I've never cared for the portions, but the lös I like pretty well. It's a treat snus for me. Once or twice a day tops. If I used it more than that, I'd get tired of it.Originally posted by N0mad View Post
BUT... It isn't as good as it used to be imo. From the people who use portions, I've heard of very uneven quality control. To top it all off, they're selling short tins of snus. It's bad enough that most don't sell proper 50g tins anymore(Gotland and Gellivare being notable exceptions), but to drop it to 42g? That's pure cheese. Skruf was started by snus makers. Guys interested in making quality snus. They were bought out by a cigarette company who wanted some of the snus action. They don't care about snus otherwise, and maximizing profit is more important than maximizing quality.
I have 2 tins of lös left, and those will be the last 2 tins I purchase. I have a small issue with the lös quality, but a huge issue with their corporate philosophy. They're doing their best to run the Skruf brand into the ground, and I won't help them do it.Comment

Skruf Stark Lös is the bomb. I like it better than the xtra stark thats for sure. The lös hasn't changed in quality in my opinion, the portions are getting terrible though. lolComment

Skruf is produced in the forests of Småland in the southern part of Sweden and fresh water from the forest lakes are used in the production. Only the best tobaccos are used in the making of Skruf and the famous Swedish standards for production of snus are of course being met.

Imperial Tobacco is the parent company of Skruf (pronounced 'Skroof' and Knox brands of Swedish snus. Skruf is probably the second most popular snus brand in Sweden and one of the top most popular snus brands in the growing American market.
Skruf was started by two life long friends who saw an opportunity to make a big future for a small product - Jonas Engwall and Adam Gillberg.
Life long friends and entrepreneurs, Jonas and Adam, sat down in 2001 to discuss how they could use their skills gained in the world of finance to build a business in an area they were passionate about.29-03-10, 09:33 PM -
