not even the snus flavouring can get out of sweden

[thefilmfreak]

i just contacted the northerner about them selling to the ukthe SNUS-X flavouring that they have on the site
i reasoned that it was only food flavouring after all no snus no tobacco how can that be banned
guess i was wrong there too i did ask the specific question regarding snusX aroma not any other product i can only assume from below the aroma is a tobacco related product that or the northener just sent ne some generic spam answer to blow me off

======================= MESSAGE ==================================


No sorry we can not ship the tobacco free Swedish Match products either, and we can not ship any tobacco related products from Sweden to EU anymore, all orders to EU has to be shipped from the US.

Due to the PACT Act and FDA regulations in the USA some brands are not shipped from the US warehouse, amoung them Snus X. The reson for this is that the products haven't been FDA approved, so we are simply not allowed to sell them. Acquiring FDA approval is up to the manufacturer, so if they don't want to register with the FDA for whatever reason, or the product is not yet approved, it has been removed from our site.

In some cases there is an issue of brand regulations. We are not allowed to sell some snus in/to the US due to brand regulations made by the manufacturer.

If this will change over time is not something that we can answer at this time.

all i wanted was some citrus aroma

[Mykislt]

get some from snus2.se

[thefilmfreak]

just had a look and unfortunatly they dont do the citrus just my luck

[c.nash]

They say "Swedish Match"... Isn't SnusX made by V2?

[Ansel]

This place does bergamot and lemon

i often wondered what the actual citrus aroma was made of its more than just lemon i always thought iv gotten quite use to it i have general and skruf but i used the snusX with a double hit of citrus in between to keep my tastebuds fresh
snus2 has the buckets which is great but not the citrus aroma and the couple of other places iv seen it they dont ship to the uk
im starting to feel like a junkie trawling the net to score

[Ansel]

Don't worry about feeling like a junkie... just let us know how you get on if you sort a kit out.

[thefilmfreak]

yup snus x is made by v2 and yup the hunt goes on
up to now i'v bought 5 differnt brands of lemon food flavouring iv got 3 odensnus whites cans in the fridge with different strengths to try and replicate my fix
odensnus whips V2's butt on quality so if i can just get the right flavour im sitting pretty but the chance to get some snus x buckets from snus2 is tempting but again it wont do any good without the flaVA.

i just contacted the northerner again to get some clarity on the whole issue
going by the definition they have spouted up top then they cannot even sell icetools and any other snusing material from sweden which is total twaddle makes you wonder if there is any unknown benefit to switching the business focus over to the US
i love a good conspiracy theory its either that or they just dont want me to have citrus flavoured snus, damn those top level illuminati and there denial of citrusy goodness drip global cleethorpes mandate conspiracy.
Its not fair aliens i can deal with all day they dont hate cleethorpes folk having lemony breath

[thefilmfreak]

well i sent the message below
but unfortunatly it seems that the northerner is not even reading the content of emails anymore its just the same generic answer without any real content
at least the emma before mona lisa made it sound like she might have read the email
maybe its me i tried to be very specific in what i was asking for clarity on as i did when i sent the original message

Hi Emma
Now I'm really confused I was referring to the actual snus aroma 8ml of food flavouring in a small bottle that cannot by any definition be called a tobacco related product its technically a foodstuff an additive. also the SNUS-X brand is V2 not SM and there is no shipping embargo those products at this time

My Freand as i understood you need snus flavoring am i right?

[thefilmfreak]

yup believe it or not to actually flavour the odens white portions i wanted citrus to give me a generalesque flavour it would seem its the only flavour i canoot get hold of

[GN Tobacco Sweden AB]

I Will send you Sir, i hope you recived goods today i hope

[pris]

A good improvisation might be to put a small slice of lemon in one of you cans overnight?

[thefilmfreak]

yup tried that
at the moment i have in the fridge can with slice of lemon, can with asda lemon flavouring in, can with dr otekers lemon essence (a catering only additive) and a can with shepcote lemon essence and one more with some guff i bought from tescos
so far the best has to be the dr otekers one its rammed with alcohol everytime i open the can everything goes all lemony and i fall over. the ingredients are listed as alcohol water and lemon essence
but to be honest i can taste the alcohol and the lemon borders on the bitter the same as when you just suck a real lemon if you ever have tasted the snusx citrus you will know what i mean about it being more than just lemon flavour
