Smoky Oak and Rustic Blend thoughts?

[Thunder_Snus]

I should have these in my possession within a few days and was wondering if anyone has had it yet? I know chad has a review up and while i do respect his views i typically like to hear from a few others on products. I only put in a can of each with my order and havent seen it discussed on here yet?

Please let us know how it is. I too am curious to try it. I have too much snus in my freezer for my own good to make an order right now though.

I will do my best. There was a note on my tracking that they were experiencing inclement weather and now when i click on the ups logo on buysnus it gives me an error. I can still access the tracking info for previous orders though. Not sure what's going on but it was originally supposed to get here tomorrow. I guess I'll see how that works out.

Other than that, I think we're the only two who reviewed it.

I sent some to CzechCzar, so he can weigh in on his thoughts on it too, I'm sure.

Rustic blend thoughts: I am most of the way done with my first tin, and, awhile it's not something I'd go for regularly, it's quite good. Very similar to General White, with notably less bergamot and a distinct floral note accompanying the tobacco. It is a very complex snus, while not being in your face. Top rated.

The smokey oak, I have only had one of, so I want to wait until I get more acquainted to post a review.

Chad, did the USpoopS ever get my snus to you?

[Thunder_Snus]

Welp I'm an idiot. My parents just let me know my snus showed up at their house today....awaiting it to be mailed to me halfway across the country now. I see why people buy houses...so one address gets stuck in your head and you never type in the wrong one for important stuff. I even got a little sampler of swedish candy. Has anyone ever tried it or thrown something in with their order before? It must happen since its a thing on northerner and buysnus and has been for awhile.

Welp got my package today. Islay whiskey is awesome, it seems pretty identical to copenhagen except less painful to swallow and i may just start collecting the cans it comes inn.
My new icetool slim can is pretty awesome It's hard to hold in my hand feel how thin it is and realize theres a whole can of snus in there. Plus the all champagne color is cool.

Out of rustic blend and smokey oak i have only cracked open the smokey oak and I'm pretty disappointed. I think general should be a regular part of anyone's snus diet but this smokey oak smells like vaseline and tastes how i would imagine vaseline does.

[CzechCzar]

vaseline doesn't taste that bad

but, i agree that the smokey oak is a let down

I was predicting as much, based on my experience with Classic Blend, which I found to be just awful in comparison to White. A term I just thought up for gimmicky variation products that pale in comparison to their parent product, released anyway just to create buzz, is marketing blundeavors.

I really like having my general original and wp in my regular rotation but this stuff was just awful. I realize not everything is made specifically for me but I don't see how anyone could enjoy either of these, but then again some people like offroad original los and that stuff is the only tobacco to actually make me vomit.

After getting a bit more experience with Smokey Oak, I am considering throwing the cans away. It's that bad. If you want a rich, robust tobacco taste, with a bit of bitterness, try cigar chess. Smokey oak is just gross.

Thanks for blazing the trail, tasting for us, so we don't have to..

[CzechCzar]

In all seriousness, I am digging Rustic Blend a lot. It has become my new favorite General varietal. Stay away from Oakey Smoke though.

Still haven't tried the Rustic blend, its just gathering ice in my freezer. I had run out of thunder frosted a few months ago and its all i have been using since i got my order.
