    just baked a pris of Roda Lacket los right now.
    However, I go through 1 can of los in a month, but a can of portions lasts me about 4 days.
    Los is like a treat for me

      I like Los alot better but use portions at work and out and about for the convenience. Plus some of my favorite flavors come only in portion format. I would be in heaven if there was general mint los and Nick and Johnny los.

      Snusgetter I hope one day you'll try los. I know we dropped the subject while back but maybe one day you'll change your mind.

          The thing is that most of the people here probably started with portions and never tried los. Once you try los, you won't go back. There is much more flavor and you control the size and strength of the pris. A los pris will get you nicotine fast. A tight pris will release nicotine slowly and last longer. You just can't do that with portions.

            Yep, there's a huge difference...

            Hmmm I wouldn't stress "more flavor" because most los versions are completely different from the portion version. (the taste is different)

            Think about Skruf ES Portion and Skruf ES Los
            General Los and General OP
            Or Offroad Portions and Offroad Los

            They are completely different los from portions ... at least for me

            There's more lemony flavor in General Portion snus whilst the Los version of General is pure rich tobacco.

            A tight pris will release nicotine slowly and last longer. You just can't do that with portions.
            I personally use los, not only because the flavor lasts longer but yes ... you can fluctuate the nic intake as you want...

              I must be doing something wrong...
              I control the flavor, size and strength of my portions by choosing from
              4mg to 17mg of whatever I want from the 4 dozen or so in my arsenal.

              I'm more of a casseroles kinda connoisseur than a meat-n-potatoes guy.

                I prefer Los for the obvious reason as stated above. I have received some portions in mixed box orders (a mistake I don't intend to happen again) I use them when needed.

                  Don't be afraid of los. The flavor is so much better. It's like going from masturbating to having sex. They both get the job done but you will have a much richer experience with los. My favorite is Granit or Gellivare but the Gotlands yellow is pretty nice as well. In fact, I don't even like the Gotlands portions that much but the los rocks. For ex smokers, you also get the benefit of using your hands to pack the pris which is a plus in my book. The only drawback to los is the rare mudslide which usually happens when I handbake a portion and the pris are a little harder to clean up from your gums when you are done.

                    It is much better...

                    Another thing I love about the los is that I get tiny bits of tobacco and get to chew them in my teeth and gives a damn good boost of flavor :-)

                        I love the bits! My first Los I ever tried was Ettan. My first pris wasn't the best so a few bits came down and the flavor was incredible, I knew then I made a good decision to try it. I would use los and only los if I could. It's great though to look forward to when coming home from work. My work I have to talk nonstop so I'm not that comfortable with a pris.

                          yep Eric... I bet you wouldn't be able to talk all day...

                          When I started los it poured down all over my teeth now I don't have any issues but sometimes when I laugh you can notice it =))

                            On an average rate I'm curious who's doing los and who is doing portions...
                            In Norway, teens use portions, and grown-ups use løs. I usually use portion as it's more practical when I'm at school for excample. I usually use løs in the weekends. It's my little treat. Sometimes I bake a prell so huge that I can't close my mouth and say "b" and "p" properly. That's not very often, though.

                              I love to make those huge pris as well...

                              Not very often... and only use "SOME" loses that I know I can tolerate even with a huge priss

                                I use General Løs when I do it. I think that's got the best taste.
