    Update/Questons:

    I've received my order and tried a few of them. Here's what i go so far. My opinion, and some questions.

    Mocca+ eucalyptus: Althought a mini-portion, the pouch was much fuller than the Wise menthol/citrus I tried. Tasted good for the first 5 minutes, then left a horrible taste in my mouth as it started to leak. I was curious if this is a typical Mocca taste? I have yet to open the Mocca pomegranite.

    Skruf original portion: Subtle. That's a bout it. There wasn't a whole lot of taste on these. It's certainly not bad, but there just wasn't much taste there.

    Offroad Amercian Wintergreen: As soon as I put it in, I thought "Grizzly Wintergreen Dip". Has a bit of that extra-sweetened taste to it with A LOT of burning-saliva leaking. I don't know if it's the tobacco quality or what, but this stuff is hard to swallow on a consistent basis. I found myself spitting quite a bit. Shame, cause it tasted like my old chew brand.

    That's all I've tried.

      Try the wintergreen in loose if you ever try loose. I've not tried the portions, but from what you say I'm wondering if it has a similar flavour to the wintergreen long cut. , which I also love.

        My next order is gonna have a few cans of loose in it.

        I've since tried a few more of my order:

        Roda Lacket: I like this stuff. Mellow flavor. There's just something 'comfortable' about these that I can't quite explain.

        Mocca Pomegranite: This stuff is actually pretty good if you don't mind a strong, flowery taste. Since their minis, i had to double stuff them, but they do taste pretty darn good.

        Jackobsen's Icy Fruit: Bleh. Tasted too artificial to me. I think their original might be good though based on these, so I'm going to try that.

        In Summary, the only stuff I'm going to buy again from my past orders is Catch Eucalyptus/menthol and Roda Lacket. Although I might do a can of the Mocca pomegranite every few months, just for a change of pace.

          I would agree that RL is a "comfortable" snus, same for the los version. It's always a good all-around starter. Other mellow ones would be Ettan, Grov, and Prima Fint (los only).....

          The Offroad Wintergreen has a pretty strong flavor that you will probably have to get used to; that's how it is with most of the Offroad variants. You can also try General Wintergreen, although I think I like Offroad's better, personally.

            Fielder & Lundgren
            by Guest
            Headquartered in Malmรถ, Sweden, Fielder & Lundgren is probably the oldest snus manufacturing name in Sweden. Started as a company in 1835, F & L's history has been full of name changes but one thing that has stayed consistent thru out it's 175 year existence, is it's commitment to producing quality Swedish snus.

            Even though the company was started in 1835, it was Samuel Fielder who applied for permission to manufacture snus in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1785. Today, Fielder & Lundgren produces
