I no longer like original portions

[lxskllr]

Thanx...I will put a tin of Onyx in my next order! The LS blacks are so delicious I nearly bit right through one! Does Onyx provide a similar taste experience?

It doesn't have the cooling sensation of LS Nites. It takes like a lemon tart to me. It's like General but different. Higher citrus, which tastes more like lemon than bergamot, noticable licorice in the background, and a bit of pepper. Not as much salt as General OP.

Translation: It has a very unique flavor profile and is freakin awesome...

Edit to include it is one of my top favorites and in my rotation... Always have a can open

I can't stand white portions. With the exception of a can of Roda that jagmans sent me a few months back, I haven't had a white portion in a couple years. As others have noted, they are too dry, too rough, and too slow to get started for me. Just thinking about white portions reminds me of the Catch Eucalyptus I got with my very first snus order, the sample box from Northerner. And in my opinion, Ettan White is the most boring snus available -- it takes subtlety to a new level (not that Level).

Yeah, I would have to agree... Ettan White is the most boring least flavorful portion snus I have had yet to date and will never buy again, Yet Ettan OP is one of my top 5 favorites along with Ettan Los and recently Ettan Kardus....

Well that's two recommendations for Onyx from a coupla' pros so I'll definitely be ordering some.

Translation: Hell yeah, bring it on.

I used to hate white portions until I purchased a can of General White from the gas station out of curiosity -- that's all I use now. I think white portions taste similar to their los counterparts; they don't have a pungent aftertaste, since the moisture content from the snus doesn't permeate the sachet material.

Onyx is wicked good. It's like the Caddy of the General line. It's got a really rich taste. Very bold stuff.

I tried Onyx once. As I recall it had a citrusy taste. Wasn't too fond of it I think.

I ordered 5 cans of onyx on my last order on blind faith. Glad I did I enjoy it. When it comes to Ettan I only do los. The portions are okay it's just the history of the los.. Being from 1822, the portions just seem sacrilegous (spelling) to me. Back to the subject I enjoy all styles white/OP etc.. Not equally though los is allways tops.

Dangit, Eric, 1822!!
I didn't realize you were that old!
(You sound so young, too!)

No wonder you're against newfangled contraptions like snus portions.
I'll bet your hand-cranked 2-party phone is holding up well;
those danged smartphone contraptions are just downright evil!!

Re Ettan OP, I'm only on my first can (first impressions are good) but I've noticed the flavour can fade quite quickly. I pitched my last portion after about 20 minutes because I was getting nothing from it.

I don't like ettan op too much and I'm beginning to realize the loose isn't very flavorful and I've got a roll of it, but the portions taste like absoutely nothing I get literally no taste whatsoever from them. Might be a bad batch (I don't think swedish match has such a thing which is one of the reasons I use their snus). That said the ettan portion can is definitely the coolest can I can think of but since no one sees my can it doesn't matter.

Ettan may wake up for you in the future. When I first tried, I thought it was fairly bland. Now, it has a huge flavor to me. I think it takes time to develop the taste buds, and the flavor increases as you gain experience.

I can't stand Ettan OP. Where is the salt flavor?!?

That's why I like it, I can't stand overly salty Snus. General White rags my gums because of the salt.

I tell you, us snussers are lucky we've got so much flavour variety!
