    Longest Lasting Portion

    Due to my busy work schedule and having to frequently deal with clients I have been using portions almost exclusively. Lately this has mostly been General original and the Ettan portions. The problem I find is these tend to lose flavor somewhat rapidly and popping another portion is difficult if I am in an extended meeting. I would switch to a maxi-portion but that tends to be more noticeable. Any suggestions?

    Maybe you could get white portions and toss em inside an altiods tin before your meeting. Then you could discreetly spit the one out and toss another on your tongue like it were a mint and just pop it inder your lip with your tongue.

      I ditto the white suggestion. Another option would be Nick & Johnny, I find a N&J easily lasts 1 1/2 hours or more, plus you get the benefit of the extra nicotine, so waiting between snuses would be easier.

        By far the longest lasting snus I have tried, and I've tried almost ALL the different snus, is the Triumph snus. I've been doing them daily for the past month and I am yet to take one out before it loses its flavor. It easily lasts 3 or more hours. Best snus yet, for me anyway.
        Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





        I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

          Ha, I practice the "altoid" snus daily. I use LS mini for such situations, but am awaiting a trial run of the mocca mini strongs.

          Also, Wise citrus is a dream. I don't quite consider it snus, but adore its flavor and nic content. It's also absolutely invisible. It lasts forever and does not run.

            Nicotine-wise, a portion Skruf Stark can last me up to 5 hours. Taste-wise, I'd say that Gotland Green is worth a try. I normally spit them out when the nicotine is gone after around 2-3 hours and at that time they still taste yummy.

            Cheers!

              Damnit, Triumph is not distributed in my area just Ohio and Georgia (starting in June). I do remember liking N&J though, I think I'll add some to my next order.

                I use the wise 6mg portins for meetings. They give a decent nicotine kick, last long and are very discreet to use. Nobody notices when I use them. You can either pop them in like a peppermint or leave for the bathroom to change the portion, whatever works for you best.

                  I had some of those, but they tasted artificial or something... Just got my roll of Mocca+ Tobacco the other day, and they are very strong and discreet as well, and have become my "go-to" concealable mini-snus. Unlike the Wise, they have a full, robust tobacco flavor, and seem to last a good while.

                    Well I got a few tins of N&J original and agree that the flavor does indeed last a long time. I had tried it before and remembered liking the slight licroice overtone, not as severe as in some snus. The extra nicotine is nice also, definately works great with that first cup of mud in the morning. I think the reason I stayed away from this brand was my experience with the N&J East which I didn't really like.

                      I agree with Harry on the Lucky Strike White Mini Portion suggestion. They are long lasting, taste great, surprisingly potent, and come in one of the best tins around.

                        Goteborgs Rape or Onyx last quite a while for me. When I put one of these in, I plan on it lasting for at least two hours. If I get very busey and forget they are in, I've never noticed that it becomes unpleasant.

                          I've noticed that the Gotlandssnus Gul lasts quite a while. Right now I am using the N&J in the morning to get things going, Gul throughout the day with another N&J now and then, and RL or Ettan loose when I am able to relax at home. It's a nice change as I was primarily using General, Ettan, and Goteborgs Surprise Sex. Skruf, both stark and regular, seemed to last me a long time but the taste never agreed with me. I much prefer the flavor of Knox, despite it being their lower priced product. Thanks for the feedback.

                            I'm glad the N&J is working out for you.
