      This is like the day we found out about Camel, Lucky Strike and Retro. Let's hope bad snus news doesn't always happens in threes.

        But we have Olde Viking to look forward too, so it's not all bad.

          Claq Qui is my favorite stark.Why in the hell would SM get rid of such a universally popular brand.I guess I will buy ten rolls of it.

              not to rain on your parade, but i just thought id warn you that claq qui doesnt keep well in the freezer. i have a few cans left that were dated best for: 12 30 09, and i opened one up the other day and all the portions were extreamly dry, and kinda foul tasting.. i know it sucks.. but if i were you i wouldnt spend too much$ stocking up on it.. instead maybe you can find something else that does it for you.. have you ever tried the offroad cran strong..? might be up your alley.

                This bites

                I have snused for 10 years I think this is one of the most original tasting and satisfying products to date. I buy some every time I make a purchase. A single portion can last for up to 2 hours the portion material is very smooth and the flavor is absolutely unique. The packaging is one of the most pleasing available. I will have to buy a roll or two and freeze it. Is the move to discontinue this product due to a lack of sales?

                  Because, presumably, it wasn't universally popular. I think we need to recognize that the main market for SM is Sweden and swedish expats, so even if Claq Qui was popular in the US and other markets outside Sweden, that may not be enough.

                  Also, when I look at the top-selling brands on most websites, I don't see Claq Qui there. For instance, Buysnus has Skruf, General, Thunder Frosted, Goeteborg Rape and General ES as the top 5 sellers.

                    That's too bad. Although I'm not a fan of regular RL, I thought the Claq Qui wasn't bad and appeared to be quite popular.

                    But business is business and I guess Claq was found to be an under performing seller.

                      counting general maxi, id say this definitely happens in threes.

                            This was a good snus. I recall the pruniness getting a bit old after a while, but I was crazy about it at first. I'll have to order a bit more before it's gone. Ettan Sterk would be fun.

                              Swedish Match said it's because it didn't achieve their expectations in Norway.

                                This is really bad news for me. Claq Qui is my favorite of the sterks, N&J Black is a close second so I won't be crying to long. I need to order a roll of Claq very soon and make it last a while.
