If a regular portion contains 8mg of nicotine, then how much does the snuser receive? My understanding is there is some left in the portion when it is thrown out. I also noticed that on Northerner, there are mixtures of data. For some snus, they put the mass of material thats in each pouch say 1gram for a portion or 0.5gram for a mini. Otherwise, when they indicate milligrams, then that is the nicotine total I assume. So... for example, on Oliver Twists webpage, they say if you chew one twist for an hour, you get 2mg nicotine delivered. I wonder how much is delivered out of an 8mg nicotine snus portion.

Bondzai - Swedish Match reckon about 10-20% of the nicotine is absorbed during Snus use so from a standard portion containing about 8mg of Nicotine this would be somewhere in the region of 1.2mg (roughly what you might get from a cigarette) Check out their website at www.gothiatek.com This contains a lot of useful info.

I think most comes out right in the first half hour. After that they taste spent to me. Now the Oliver Twists might just be as strong as a full portion now that I have that data because they have over 7mg of nicotine of which 2 is delivered and they keep their taste a lot longer. I guess its the absence of salt etc... but since they don't have salt, you don't get the delivery as fast maybe? I know I got a buzz off my first one this AM but then I put in a full portion of Ettan and it was very powerful comparitively so its like it gave it to me at a faster rate.

I know what you mean. If I changed my portions of Snus everything 30 minutes and chain-Snused to keep up with my girlfriend lighting up a new cigarette every 30 mins my head would explode
