    General Mint now available!

    Have you guys already heard this? I Didn't realize it was already available for sale. Anyone tried it yet? Does it have anymore of a pronounced tobacco flavor, or is it still just overpowering very sweet mint? I like the Mini Mint, but its a little too sweet sometimes, Id like a little more tobacco flavor mixed in. Maybe with the bigger pouch the tobacco will come through more.

    It can be found at Swedishsnus.com (formerly owned by Swedish Match, now ran by MySnus AB)
    Ive never really ordered from this site, but now that I look and I see that they have prices comparable to Getsnus ($28.00 rolls), I might throw a few orders their way. Any one have any experience with this site?

    It's also available at SnusCentral at an 8 for the price of 10 sale, but I've never ordered from them before. I'm really looking forward to trying it since I'm one of those im-purists who love General Wintergreen. I also love Grov and Ettan Los, so I'm not totally beyond redemption, but General quality, mint portions during the day sounds really good.

      I'm waiting for about the same answer from multiple people before I even try it. Mini mint is my usual friday night snus as it is discrete and minty, but I sure as hell wouldn't want a more intense mint experience. If its the same amount of mint spread out over more tobacco, perfect, if it's just 2 1/2 of the same thing over then I'll pass.

        The mint flavour is no more intense than the mini mint it just has longer lasting flavour and more tobacco. I prefer them to the mini mint not only because they have more nicotine but they also are not a dry white portion.

          Damn, not being white disappoints me. I was hoping they were whites.

              hmmmmm, whats the difference? I thought whites were regulars minus the final spray? So if they are not dry whites, doesn't that just make them regulars? Jeez, everytime I think I know all the differences in snus, I realise I don't know jack. LOL.

                General Mint

                Just so you all know Clubsnus is going to be offering the General Mint in the next couple of days. The order has been placed and should be up on the site in no time.

                FYI

                  I'm happy with their service. Had one order and everything went fine.

                    Dry and white are the same I believe, Vit means white and I think general only started using the word dry on white portions when they started marketing more towards exports to the US.

                      I dont think dry and white mean the same thing.

                      catch for example make white portion licorice and dry white licorice.

                      and the dry white mini mint is much dryer than the white mint.

                      that being said the general white portion mint is nowhere near as moist as a regular portion.

                          Yeah I placed an order for a roll of the mint from them. Pretty good deal I guess. I'll probably have it before the warehouses in the US. They must be shipping theirs on a reefer or something.

                            Correct. White portion is a regular portion without the final squirt of water. A dry portion uses dry tobacco in the pouch. Camel, Mocca, and the Catch drys are good examples.
