    My first snus experience ever!

    I went down to a local tobacco shop and they had General snus, so I bought the los kind. (Even though I ordered 2 cans online: Ettan los and Göteborgs Prima Fint..I couldn't wait!)
    I then drove to the beach and parked next to a nice shady tree and proceeded to break the seal of the can.
    The smell of General los snus is heaven to me, I then took a small pris.
    As soon it was under my lip it had a smokey peppery taste and started to tingle.
    It tasted great. I took another pris after an hour of having the first one in..it was a lil' bigger. It made me a little dizzy but other than that it was smooth sailing.
    Snuser for life. :P

    Lös was an unusual choice for the first snus, but snus on!!

      That sounds great Treath. Remember it... I wish I could distinctly remember my first snus. It was an Ettan portion in my back yard... that's about all I can remember.

        Thanks everyone. I noticed that some long time snusers complain about the smell of snus, I might be a natural snus lover then..Lol.

          I've never been one to recommend not smelling the snus. I think it smells great, and it's only natural to first smell some curious foreign object that you are about to suck on for the first time. Insert all kinds of good jokes here.

            Don't smell the sn**ch :wink:
            I couldn't help myself, please don't boot me!
            My first snus...wow, a portion of Catch Eucalyptus. I distinctly remember opening the can and thinking "wow these portions are pretty big!" My first wannabe snus experience was with Camel, so you understand my surprise.
            Then I smelled it and thought "This doesn't smell like mint...hmmm, what the heck?" I wasn't impressed.
            But wow I was playing Mass Effect and since this was my first real snus, well, lets just say I wasn't moving from my bed for some time! I loved every minute of it!
            Haven't had a Catch in a while. Now that you've got me all nostalgic, I'll be getting one on my next order.
            Welcome to the wonderful world of Snus!

                  2 things: mass effect is really fun. eagerly awaiting the sequel.
                  and, i wasnt impressed with catch. of my entire top 10 pack, id say its easily my least favorite. ill probably end up giving them all away. its not that it tastes bad, but the whole time i have it in, im only thinking about when i can get my hands (or gums) on my next portion of ettan.

                  on to Treath. welcome to snuson man. awesome you chose to dive right into los, i still havent tried any. im planning on ordering a bunch once ive made a dent in my current opened cans of portions.

                        The only thing is that my girlfriend doesn't like me snusing at all..I'd have to snus when she's not around.
                        Ah well, that's alright. Even though I feel a lil' guilty about it.
                        Snus is like a fine wine that I can enjoy from time to time.

                            Treath, another reason to try portions.


                            Even women that aren't too friendly to it all at least tolerate my using portions. Had I tried to use los in front of them, they all would have been disgusted.

                            The portions are neat, discreet. And at least the way I place them, NO ONE ever knows I have one in anyways.

                              I think I don't care for American dip anymore. I used to dip regularly years ago, but I don't think I was a dip head like many people are that love it....
