    your favorite los?

    so I'm just getting back in "the game" with american dip, and I noticed that a big pinch makes me feel like garbage(heart racing, confusion), whereas a small pinch makes me feel like a million bucks.

    If I remember right, most american dip compares to 8mg/gram los snus? I've been using skoal which I think is slightly lower.

    Then I was thinking, I might as well try to get the most bang for my buck, and just get strong los and use tiny pinches. I'll be at work at least half the time, so I'd try to not get noticed if I used los.

    In any case, what's your go-to los? I think I'm ready

    My favorite los snus has to be Thunder Frosted los. But I also like Roda Lacket, Offroad Wintergreen, and Offroad Cranberry for other los snus. I usually have some of the Odens Kanel around too.

        If you're looking for high potency, great flavor, and a grind that maintains, check out Skruf Extra Stark los. It came out just a little while ago. Not only is it a terrific snus, but it will knock your socks off. Perfect for when you want a very small pris with all of the satisfaction. I only got 1 can from northerner and I ration it for special occasions. I'm looking forward to a roll or two. Good to see you deebs, welcome back

            For me it's Ettan, Grov, or General during the day and Probe, GES, Skruf Stark/Xtra, and Oden's ES Kanel during the night. I drink at night and need more nic.

            Welcome back!

              Right now, I'd have to say General.

                I would have to second Roo's suggestion of Skruf's ES. However, I find that Skruf's regular sterk is strong enough for me. I'm an ex-dipper. I lower lip Skruf most the time, and find it holds together just as well as Cope did.

                Lxskllr seems to me to be a dependable person on this forum, so I would try his suggestion. Gotland Gul is on my list to get too.

                  My favorite los? The kind that comes in little white pouches.

                    Los samplings have lead to Taboca as being the creme de la creme this go 'round. Mmm mmm mmm.

                      Thank you :^)

                      Snus is very individualistic, and it's hard to say one's better than the other. It mostly comes down to personal taste. It's like single malt scotch. I've never had a bad scotch that was over $25 a bottle. There's some I like more than others, but I wouldn't turn down any in that category.

                      The Gotland is fairly unique. It has a very strong bergamot flavor, with a bit of bitterness. The bergamot comes off as having a piney taste. It tastes like an alpine meadow in spring time to me.

                        what's the cut like - course like Skruf - or finer like Roda? Or somewhere in the middle?

                          It used to be very coarse, kind of like Grov. They made it finer to make handbaking easier. I haven't had Skruf in awhile, so I'm not sure. I'd say it's similar to General, but moister.

                              Taboca is awesome. I'm gonna have to stick with General, for now, but Taboca is right up there.

                              Yeah, same here. And Gots Gul *is* superb. Kardus ain't too bad, either, but I guess that's hardly fair...

                                For my second order at buysnus I went bold and ordered a mix los roll and a mixed los/portion roll. For my gift I also added an extra roll of random snus....

                                Started by Marc and Patrick Vogel, V2 Tobacco began manufacturing Swedish snus in Silkeborg, Denmark in 2006, to the same exacting standards that snus manufactured in Sweden is.

                                Below is a list of the brands and varieties produced by V2 Tobacco:

                                A genuine interest in snus is what led the brothers Marc and Patrick Vogel to launch V2 Tobacco in 2006. Production began on a small scale, but increased as a result of demand until the brothers outgrew their factory. ...
