Thunder Snus - Production Version

[v2]

[quote="Shownarou"]

Off topic, but any chance of us seeing any of the Nordströmmen limited flavors on a more permanent release?

We have not decided to let them stay - at this moment.
This was just made as an experiment to see what it brings on the swedish and internet market ... and we will evaluate this later on and make an decision

I don’t know really what to say!
We are very happy that we have hit something really great – not that I was doubting about it :lol:
We appreciate the comments a lot.
Thanks for the support!

Congratulations Patrick :^)

I'm not the biggest V2 fan around here, but I'm happy to see you doing well. Any snus maker that competes with Swedish Match is a friend of mine. While I haven't had Thunder yet, your Nordströmmen lös snus has been quite a departure from your previous products, well done :^) I'm looking forward to your new releases over the coming years :^)

V2, I am very happy with Thunder myself and am ordering a roll of los as I greatly enjoy the portions. Although I love Phantom now, it was an acquired taste but I enjoyed this one from the first portion.

Congratulations Patrick :^)

Thanks! No problem. We are aming on getting you as customer as well in 2009.
What product should we develop to you?

[lxskllr]

I'd like to see a relatively plain lös snus, in the vein of Landströms, Gellivare, Grov, and Ettan. It doesn't need the smoke flavor, but it should be dark, and earthy, with no citrus, or sweetness.

I also wouldn't mind seeing a slightly finer cut. I'm generally a fan of coarse snus, but some of your lös snus bakes up kind of hard. When testing snus, pay attention to the mouth feel, as well as taste :^)

Any chance that getsnus.com will carry Thunder portions?????

My order of Thunder portions from buysnus.com never showed up.

Have you e-mailed Buysnus about it?

[bearcat87]

Yep and because I used swedish post they told me in nicer words that I was shit out of luck. That will be the last time I use them. Not because I'm irrationally mad just that I cannot afford to use ups shipping. Getsnus now has all my business. Thankfully my order was only 30 dollars so I didn't loose much.

[sagedil]

Wow, that is NOT how Buysnus has handled issues in the past. Maybe they think they have been burned too much but still, they will lose far more business this way then covering folks when problems have happened.

I have been a long time customer and expect I probably won't change...yet. But it wouldn't take much to send me over to Northerner

[bearcat87]

From what I head Buysnus is usually good about keeping their customers happy. I am a little disappointed. Not only do they loose my business but I am now buying for a few of my friends so they are essentially loosing 3 people.

The big bummer is that I just want to try Thunder!

[Starcadia]

I'm disappointed with BuySnus, too, since they haven't responded to my two emails - one yesterday, one today - about them sending a roll of Thunder portions instead of loose. I've been a loyal customer so far.

Got my order in today. Not bad being I ordered sunday night and it was here today. I am quite happy with my experience with northerner, I think they have earned a regular customer, at least with snus I can't get here in the US.

I am sitting here with a long awaited portion of thunder in. I haven't had it in long so can't say much yet, but I can tell that I really like it. It definately doesn't have much to compare to, it is much different from the taste of other snus I have had. I detect a slight citrus note and tobacco but there is something else that I can't pinpoint. I think 'roasted nuttiness' that was mentioned here before is probably about as close as I can get. This snus is definately going to get a lot of use. I give two thumbs up.

[BrianC]

I would like to add that the nicotine in the thunder is now hitting me....whoa, this stuff is incredible lol.

[sagedil]

LMAO. It really is an interesting beast this Thunder stuff.

[BrianC]

And a beast it is. I understand the description that the nicotine very gently builds, and that is dead on. The difference is that other snus plateaus after a while and the thunder just builds and builds and builds until your head is spinning. It is certainly not a sudden hit of nicotine though. It think this one is going to be without a doubt roll material.

[sagedil]

You hit it right on the nail. Thunder has forced me to change how I use snus. Simply NOT a snus I can chain snus. I pace myself. Go for an hour or two between snuses. Otherwise, the nicotine becomes too much
