portion quandary.

[daruckis]

so im realizing while compiling my next order that there are like no portions i want to use except general, lucky strike, ld, and camel. and only 2 of those can i get shipped to america. its been a while since i had ettan or grov so maybe i should revisit, but really i just think portions suck, but i cant use los at work except maybe once in a while. im in a slump.

Have you tried the Taboca portions?

The Jakobsson's and Gots don't do it for you?

How were the General Maxis, by the way?

I don't know if you've had these, but here's a couple suggestions based on your list...

Granit
Gustavus
Hmm... I was expecting more :^D I guess you've already had everything, eh? I like Gotland portions, and LD Black is a favorite of mine. I also like PM1847, but I seem to be in the minority in that regard.

Oh, yeah, Gustavus, you really should try those if you haven't, daruckis.

Hmm, I was wondering what to have next. PM1847, y knot.

edit: Of course. What was I thinking? LEVEL! C'mon, man, I know you've tried that, I think you even said it wasn't bad. That means you think it's good, right? Right????

i havent had taboca yet, actually. jaks are okay, i find the portions a bit awkward feeling, like montecristo. havent had the gots portions yet, gonna try some green soon, maybe the gul, but i dont want to risk it ****ing up my love of the los. i guess thats a cop out. i should probably just get back to try everything mode.

i dig the maxis dude! rekindled my general love. for some reason when i go for a while without having some things i dont look back on it as fondly. i just get 'meh' about it. probably why i have only been trying new cans for so long and now that the list of untried snus is getting smaller im getting anxiety, hahaha. but the maxis are awesome. bigger nic hit without the strong, sourish sterk taste that im not particularly fond of. probably one i will buy more of.

How about the 01s and 02s?

i need to give the granit regular portions a try. i have the whites and i pretty much hate them, not the flavor, but because theyre the driest of the dry. i need to just soak em in water. gustavus i also have but havent opened yet, its the next can in my open list so ive been hoping i love it. with that, ld, and general as my go to portions i should be fine.

i guess the gotland portions are on my to try list. im not a much a fan of ld black, and ive only smelled 1847 and was way put off by it.

damn i really sound like a wet blanket when i start rattling off all the snus i dont like.

[daruckis]

How about the 01s and 02s?

i was really digging 01 at first but i hate to agree with everyone else thats said it, im halfway into my 3rd can of it and im getting kind of bored of it. potentially just because im using more of it than any other portion, its the first thing i bought a roll of. its good, but i guess i need to change it up more.

I'm getting the same way. "Don't like" is a bit strong, but there's many I just can't be bothered with, especially portions. I'll like something ok, but there'll be others that are similar that I like a bunch more. I used to try to keep up with everything new that comes out, but not anymore. I haven't had the 01 or 02 yet. I'm sure they're fine, but they're still portions. I'd use 1 or 2, and think "this isn't bad", but then be wishing I had a nice pris of Gotland lös instead :^D

Nick & Johnny Black is the best new snus of all of them. Yes, a sterk, but not a huge sterk, just 11 mg of nicotine. But super duper yummy.

I would also revisit Grove and Ettan too.

Reality for me, 80% of my snus usage will just be LD White and Nick and Johnny Black. I long ago got mostly bored with snus, am happy just sticking with what I really like. Pipe tobacco has become my new thrill, my new passion. I just snus now to keep my body happy, I use snuff and smoke pipes for the "taste".

Granit OPs are tasty. I don't think the flavor lasts quite as long as with General, but they do okay. Granit maxis you might like, too. They taste very similar to the General but with a shape a little closer to 01/02. Of them all, I don't think I've tried the Granit whites yet (or the minis, but I know you aren't into minis).

I have high hopes for you liking the Gustavus.

yeah i still need to get some n&j black. never bothered to complain to northerner for forgetting my free one. snuffs become my new thrill, i think. i cant wait to try out fubar, though it might knock my head through the roof.

I second the vote for N&J black. I actually almost like it. I bought a roll today.


OR coffe/van is running dangerously low. gonna have to have a serious talk with Patrik at V2 soon.

i actually have been considering trying out the thunder frosted minis. or the taboca strong minis. maybe i can dig strong minis. at least enough to get me through work long enough to fill my lips up with juicy loose goodness.

there are really no certainties in the world of snus, gotta try it all. then you gotta re try it after you already told everyone you didnt like it. ha.
