    Now, all of these will be my first real Swedish snus, thanks to fishmeat and ProudMarineDad.

    1x General White
    1x Thunder Frosted Extra Strong

    I've been using Camel, but these smell STRONG compared to camel.

      Okay, first impressions of General White. WOW...I mean WOW what a HUGE difference from Camel 'snus'. No overpowering flavors, no sugary taste, maybe slight salted taste? But it was MUCH more pleasant and felt much more easier on the gums. The pouch fit a lot better because Camel tends to make tube like portions, while these weren't as bulky.

      I have a slight headache around my eyes, but nothing major. Probably due to the fact that I had a Camel pouch a short time before then the General. I'll try Onyx next.

        You will love Grov I think. One of the best snuses ever.

            Wait until you feel the Thunder.

              Awesome stuff man.
              Remember, if you don't like something right off the bat, throw it in the freezer, wait about a month and try it again. You will most likely like it then. lol
              All of those are good stuff... I haven't tried the Jax classic strong yet though, so who knows about that haha.

                One thing I noticed about the portions, not including General, is it looks very moist and the pouches are brown, more juicy goodness.

                  Be advised that the Grov may seem very salty, as might some of the others--something you'll get used to after a short while. Also try the Thunder for the first time sitting down-- really--it's bloody strong so don't be afraid to yank it out if you notice any serious side effects. Everything you have is at least twice as strong as Camel and the Thunder is at least four times as strong. Good luck and good snusing.

                        General onyx is awesome I think you'll like it. I really recommend you try general mint when you can. It's a good transition from camel and has a really good flavor if you are a mint fan.

                          I think I am reaching the point where if I could have nothing but Grov (lös/OP/WP) I would be quite happy. I just never get bored of it. Ok, that and Ettan.

                            I went from camel to general mint. Worked great the mini mint is a good lateral move as well.

                              As of now, I like the Grov much better than the General White.
