Personal tastes compared

[Zero]

yeah, white portions are more resistant to un-cold temperatures, but in all cases snus should be kept cold when possible.

[gopherbob]

I would say 'yes' keep them in the fridge. Unless you take a can on an adventure.

Just received Wise Citrus. Taste is very sweetened, not salted at all, perfect !
I'm going to try Catch dry eucalyptus and licorice. Hope it wil be good.

Question : do I need to keep white and dry cans in the fridge ? Is it preferable or not ?

[gopherbob]

sounds appropriate to stay away from the licorice snus

[victor meldrew]

It's only the saltiness, and some portions are awful, some others are very mild...

Question from a very new snusser :
With Metropol Licorice, when I take a new portion, the first ten minutes are sometimes disgusting. It's not with each portion.
It's sometimes awfully salted, I must spit and spit again or drop the portion in the rubbish.

Is it usually very salted, enough to need to spit ?
Am I definitly a white mini portion user ?

Is it the SALTINESS or the tobacco BITTERNESS that makes you spit?
If it's the saltiness then maybe licorice isn't your thing. not everyone likes licorice (american licorice candy is usually sweeter whereas salmiak-type licorice common in Europe is salty)

On the other hand; if it's the bitterness just give it some time. After a while you get more accustomed to this and/or develop less saliva. You said yourself that it's not with every portion. In time you'll notice it less and less.

Thanks for the advise Marspattuka, I'lm going to try as you say.
But Metropol a white portion, it's written on the can.

It might just be the "juice" that's coming out, that's the reason I prefer white portions . Sometimes I put a normal (not white) portion on my hand and give it few punches before putting it under my lip, that takes some of the juices away and makes it more comfortable to use.

Yeah, according to BuySnus.com the people at Bacco made some changes to their snus recipes and rebranded/renamed it Offroad.

[nzkiwi]

offroad.

[gopherbob]

So which brand is in now... offroad or bacco? My last order about a month ago says bacco on the can.

[nzkiwi]

I believe they made some changes to the Bacco recipe and renamed it Offroad.

[marspatukka]

Allrigty then, had allready read that one but didn't realize Bacco=Offroad . Think I'll give it a try, apple-aroma cranberry-snus sounds interesting

[Craig de Tering]

I'm about to order a 5 or 10 can-set of Offroad Cranberry strong's, but are they any good? I've heard some bad stuff about offroad loose, but how's the taste with these? Can you speak of Offroad Cranberry and Skruf Cranberry in the same sentence? It's pretty damn cheap so it doesn't have to be a 100% copy of Skruf, but I'd appreciate if someone would tell me their experiences of this snus .
