Nordstrommen Los Opinions

[Sal1000us]

Although I had already put an order couple of hours ago, you guys convinced me to put my second order for a box of Nordstrommen at northerner and while I was at it I thought of some chocolate, no idea how good they are but got a box of Dark Chocolate Apricot Brandy, Marzipan and a box of Dark Chocolate Plum, Madeira, Marzipan. Thy were about $5 each and I thought they might go well with the Nordstrommen and a cup of tea.

I hate you all :lol: , you talked me into it and I just ordered this. I couldn't chance never having the opportunity to try these. It will also be my first step into los :shock: I also made an order at buysnus for some thunder wintergreen and odens cinamon stark.

I've never tried los before. Should I put an order in for this snus before its gone? I'd hate to miss out on some great snus. I just started snusin and the salty taste is really prevelant. Would this snuss still be really salty. Thats why I kind of enjoy the flavors right now because the flavor isn't complete salt. All i could taste in my Ettan white portion was salt. I was gonna place a second order soon anyway because I want to try some stark portions for when I long for a cig.

disclaimer:

this los is not handbake friendly IMO. New losers be warned.

I love it




except top flavor yuck.

[BrianC]

Well I guess I will have to learn quickly :lol: I'm not worried about it, I just really want to try these flavors!!

I'm waiting for my limited edition box to arrive in the next few days. I'm very excited. I'm glad I got an icetool since people have expressed that it's crumbly (probably like the julesnus). Anybody know if the Brandy Alexander actually tastes like alcohol?

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

@Brian

Get a fine cut los too, like Roda, Skruf, or GR. Just to see the difference. If it's your first los.

[BrianC]

Will do, thanks for the tip. I'm thinking perhaps I should order a couple of prismasters too...? I am going to be putting together an order of some "old faithfuls" with getsnus very soon, so I'm thinking it might not be a bad idea.

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

You very well might need that prismaster.

Personal opinion once you get hooked on loose you don't use many portions. I love this stuff I ordered 4 boxes of it!!!! I would have to say the Brandy Alexander was my favorite, I enjoy the other flavors as well. Like it has been posted though this snus is a little dryer than most so you may have difficulty baking but I haven't had much of a problem. Thank you V2 first Phantom and now Nordstrommen. I hope they have a poll on the flavors and a few of these go into regular production.

I just received my Nordstrommen Limited Box. Unfortunately, my icetool was not in the package with the rest of my order. I contacted the company so we can get it sorted out.

So far, I've only tried the Mandarin. It's less sweet than I would have predicted, but nice. Not an all-the-time snus, but a good treat.

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

They are great dessert snuses IMO. I don't like the top flavor though. Sorry about not getting the icetool. That sucks.

[mercvrivs]

Thanks for the empathy; I'm sure it will turn out alright. The main reason I ordered it is so that I can use loose more at work and meetings and not have to endure portions (because I strongly prefer loose). Good thing I have some GES in my freezer -- that, and I handbake so well it's not even funny . I got the Icetool snus box though, which is pretty cool and fits my cans perfectly!

[Sal1000us]

Mine should be here (hopefully) on Monday. How did the baking process go, not too bad? I read somewhere here it might be a bit of a challenge hand-baking it.

A great dessert snus? I think I am going to love Nordstromenn since I use los after dinner and not in the morning.

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

They are hand bakable just not as easy as some. Might piss off a noob baker.
