What is the absolute strongest brand/type of loose snus? Nicotine content per serving is what I am interested in here. Out of all the snus I ordered I'm leaning towards three and the rest seem a little weak and bland. I enjoyed Skruf Stark, General, and Grovsnus. I didn't like ettan for some reason and liked the big, juicy Lucky Strike portions a lot better than the white portions or any other portions. Also, where is the best deal on the Icetool online right now?
Strongest?

Nick & Johnny, Skruf Stark, and Strongcut are probably the triumvirate of "strong" snuses.
If you haven't tried Gellivare or Landströms, they're also quite potent - not like the other three, but certainly of their own character. They're rather coarse snuses as well, which may or may not sit well with you. I like them.

But hey I'm gonna buy me one even though I don't think I'm ever gonna use it. It just looks so damn sexy!

Anyone heard of "Skärgårdsnus" or " Saaristolaisnuuska" (same thing, first one in swedish and the next in Finnish.).Production is propably seiced because I haven't heard of it for few years now, but man that was some strong stuff :shock: . Honestly, it peeled a layer out of my gums every time I used it, and the effect was pretty strong too. It was packed in a same kind of box as Landströms, but was completely black with an image of a rudder.

I'm starting to lean towards skruf stark as my favorite.
I just saw an email from northerner it looks like my girlfriend ordered my an icetool for my birthday! 03 black!
I was looking for an icetool to buy and I came across this site. Some of the 03s are $35.

If your just ordering an icetool it comes out a little cheaper shipping to the us. USA wasn't on listed on their checkout page but I emailed them and they said they did ship here.

Both of these snuses didn't even make me break a sweat over nic.
Especially Probe. I might as well have stuck a piece of wax under my lip. Damn that thing tasted bad. Roda tasted great but turned to mud too quickly and certainly gave me no sense of nicotine.
Probe and Gustavus original are also the only snuses 'till now I've actually thrown away an almost full tin of out of desperation with the horrid taste.
Gustavus' taste reminded me of those smelly old cheap Chinese-made vinyl toys and kids' blow-up swimming floaters.

ANALYTICAL DATA:
Water: ca 55 %
Nicotine: ca 8 mg/g
Salt: ca 3 %
Sugar: < 0.2 %
Ethanol: < 0.5 %
I believe Röda has 8mg/g because i see no difference in nicotine kick between general/ettan/grov then röda.

Originally posted by gopherbobYou are probably right. It's just strange error for them to make. But then again I think they say kronan loose has 45grams of snus in a can on that site.
I wonder whose the value leader in nicotine?

The best information sources, as far as I know, for nicotine and other contents of most brands are:
http://www.swedish-snus.info/_all_loose_snus.htm
http://www.swedish-snus.info/_all_snus.htm (already mentioned by gopherbob)
and
http://www.snusworldwide.com/us/
However, for some brands the infos are hard-to-find or maybe unavailable.
