Question - Phantom Lös

[lxskllr]

It's good to see you too :^)

Perhaps my palate is not yet refined enough.

So far I love the V2 products, my favorite being Offroad Cranberry. I think the grind is ideal for beginners as well.

I think it's just one of those things some people taste, and others don't. Or else it just affects people differently. I don't think it's experience; I'm sure not all that experienced. Plenty of people love V2-made snus.

I like V2 lös. Their portions are unusable, but the lös is pretty good. The grind is the best part. I like my snus on the coarse side, and V2 is about as coarse as it gets. The Phantom Brown is my favorite, but the others aren't so bad either. Not favorites, but nice every once in awhile.

I have a fondness for Oden's ES Kanel lös, in particular, and I keep some ES Original around, too, for when I want a real nicotine slam but I don't want the Kanel. I have enjoyed a Thunder portion on occasion. My first minis were Phantoms and I found them pretty tasty. It's not like any of it's /bad/, but that overtone--I'd rather call it an undertone--is there, and it does detract from the overall flavor IMVHPO.

I like a few V2 portions, Phantom Blue, and Offroad Original, and I have a slightly used can of Phantom Brown Loose, and I agree, in that I do get a slighty soapyness about them in the taste, but to me, it's not "bad", and I don't mind it enough to not use them. I don't taste it in Thunder Original though.

Snusdog,

I'm not the only one that notices it. That's why I asked.

Some of us just might be more sensitive to certain tastes than others.

JT, I could not agree more regarding the variance of individual taste. And apparently there are quite a lot of people who share this experience when it comes to V2 snus. I just had never heard it before.

Anyway, like I said, to me Phantom and Odens have a similar underlying taste. It very well could be we are describing the same things but just associating it differently, that and I have no idea what glycerol and propylene glycol are much less what they taste like (except I believe the first is a sweetener and the second preserves moisture).

But damn it JT and lxskllr if my P brown starts tasting like soap right after I ordered a whole roll just because I read this blame thread there will be…..um….. there’s going to be..……..well o.k. absolutely nothing is going to happen….. but I wont be happy that’s for sure :x

Snus on bros and may the snus abide 8)

Hey cstokes4 good to see ya bro. I just whispered you over at snuffhouse

[Snusdog]

OK I have no idea how I got two of the same quote in my last post. But I think I just invented internet stuttering.

Brilliant even when I don’t mean to be 8)

Phantom is what it is. It may have a strange taste, but it's still enjoyable. It's definitely unique, and I'll take Phantom Brown over just about anything SM makes :^)

[texasmade]

agreed wit ^ phantom brown is good to me somewhat sweet to me,tobacco and dirt? i guess id say it has that taste of how dirt smells after a light/medium shower
