Göteborgs Rapé Åre Edition 2012...limited what?

[Lcarvone]

So I just got a can of this in a trade (thanks jagmanss) and I am really liking it. Tastes more citrus-lime than when compared to original GR1. But wait, am I fooling myself? Considering it has been almost a year since I have had GR1 has my taste just changed and this is actually GR1 just in a limited can? Or is it really a tweak to the recipe?

If it doesn't taste like pine-needle they could have changed something.

GR1:Mild tobacco taste with certain sweetness and hints of fresh herbs and juniper berries
GR2: Mild tobacco taste with certain sweetness and hints of fresh herbs,juniper berries and cranberries.
GR Åre edition: Medium-bodied tobacco character with hints of juniper and levandel and some wood and citrus.

If i remember correctly they produced GR åre edition particularly for our winter season here in sweden =)

This would make sense since the juniper seems to be toned down a bit and replaced if you will with more of a citrus character. Not picking up the floral lavender notes but then again I have never "tasted" it in a snus and I imagine it blends in with the juniper. It sounds kinda like an aromatherapy snus...ahhh.

The only problem is now if it really is different from GR1 then I may have to get a stash of it before it runs out!
