Yes. Close enough. I've had about 15 cans and it's a pretty okay substitute for General. -
i'm in new york and the only snus i can find is general and catch. i am currently trying the general wintergreen. it's a little harsh but i suppose it's because i'm a first time snusser...Comment

Yeah, snusers call this phenomenon the 'burning sensation'. It happens with every snus-brand, most probably due to the salt-content in the snus. This will pass after about a week, when your gums are used to the stuff.Originally posted by mizanationComment

Aye, my lip was a bit tender for the first week or so of snussing - thankfully it passes rather quickly!Comment

Not the salt, but the soda they put in to lower the pH and freebase the nicotine. Snus is, therefore, a bit alkaline (basic) and has a burn because of that.Originally posted by chainsnuserComment

I really don't want to start some hairsplitting, as I think, your explanation is perfect - but ... isn't soda a salt? :?Comment

Well thanks to a trade with mikemck, I just got a can today and tried it. It is pretty good, it didn't really knock my socks off or anything. But, I might order it again. Maybe not a whole roll but a few cans here and there. I do now understand what was said about the peppery element of it, it's kind of nice.Comment

Technically yes - if I'm a chemist and you're a chemist then that's what we mean when we say "salt", but to any other english-speaking person, I think "salt" means "table salt" (NaCl), which is also an ingredient in snus.Originally posted by chainsnuserComment

Of course! It's exactly the same in german. 'Salt' usually means table salt.
To be honest, I wasn't absolutely sure about the detailed reasons for the burning, but I was sure, that it was due to one of the 'salts', used in snus.:lol:

Here we have a champagne flavored snus for those who prefer strong and all white snus portions. G.4 Fizzy Slim All White packs a high nicotine content (10 mg/portion) and fuses citrus, peach, grapefruit and elderflower together brilliantly in order to give it its fruity and tasty flavor.
These portions use a filling made out of natural cellulose fibers and a small amount of refined high quality tobacco. This gives them the same satisfying feel as a regular snus portion but also some neat advantages. ...26-06-19, 11:28 AM -
Coming soon from Swedish Match here we have G.4 Fizzy Slim All White.
G.4 Fizzy Slim All White is said to have a mellow character with distinct notes of citrus and peach along with hints of grapefruit and rose water delivered in a long and narrow all white pouch with an optimised fit with a dry surface but moist content for low drip and a long lasting flavour. ...16-06-19, 10:53 AM -
So I was just sitting here, relaxing, and thinking about what I had in my hand. It's a bottle of this stuff :
And I love it,... -

To say I've been anticipating this would be an understatement. Today, I received the official news about General Long and General Long Sterk. Rumors...
