    Looking for a mild flavor.

    I've been snusing happily for a few months now with General Portion and General White Portion (I've used Los but I prefer the Portion for the ease and simplicity.). I've only used General because my local tobacconist only sells it because they are in a trial program. But as much as I like the taste I wanted to go with something I little more mild for when I'm in a relaxed mood and just want to kick back. I would like to keep the prominent tobacco flavor if possible. Any suggestions would be nice. I didn't want to order snus blindly online.

    Thanks all.

    Just about any white snus should do the trick. But a couple of suggestions....Lucky Strike White and Retro White are two of my favorite, more"mild" snuses

      Ettan and/or Grov. Normal nic hit and they have fairly basic tobacco taste. They go well with "relaxing" beverages as well.

          All great suggestions but I'd add M by Mocca, the tobacco one, Kronan. and Pall Mall.

            Jakkobsons Ice Fruit, is a nice minty day finisher.Not a white portion, but very good anyway. I use it pretty regular.

              Don't mean to hijack the thread but where are some good places to get Lucky Strike and Retro? I know buysnus.com has them but is there anywhere else as well?

                Both Northerner sites list them both.

                  Ok I ordered Ettan, lucky, M, and Grov. A couple cans each in white. Now I'm doing the pee-pee toddler dance waiting for them.

                  No worries ShaulWolf lol.

                  Oh my friend Mark tried snus for his first time today. He wouldn't swallow and he later threw up. I couldn't stop laughing. The whole time he was hurling he was calling me an asshole.

                      I find the Skruf original portions to be very mellow on flavor. I'm just finishing my first can of it, and it's stayed consistently low-profile.

                      I think the Roda Lacket original portions are also a very even, mellow flavor. I started to notice more flavor towards the end of the can I had, but it was also a very mellow, in-the-background kind of a flavor.

                      Both of these portions, in my opinion, are very mild and low-profile (taste-wise) while you have them in your lip.

                        My current favorite mild portion w/ prominent tobacco flavor is Pall Mall. It's pure tobacco flavor, but I detect a subtle creamy / salty/ cashew vibe in it.

                        Roda white is a good mild one also, it's slightly fruity without being flagrant about it.

                          After reading good things about Skruf I placed an order from Northerner.
                          I am going to compare buysnus to northerner see which comes faster.

                          tonight I am going to try and pick up a can of General Wintergreen and see how that goes. I hope they have it in.

                            ok, my order from buysnus came in a little while ago. So with out hesitation I closed my eyes and picked one at random. Lucky it was, and OMG great!

                            A little later I will pick another at random and see how that goes.

                            Loving lucky white though! Thanks sagedil!
