Extra Stark Los

[Monkey]

So I just got my order from Northerner (all los, I just don't like portions) and I ordered a can of Odens extra sterk kanel ios. I wanted to see what it was all about, and read that it doesn't give an overpowering nic hit all at once, more of a longer, gentle ride.

I baked a pris half the size I normally do (twice the nic, 1/2 the ammount) and within ten minutes I was dizzy and had to spit it out. It's in the freezer and I am not going back for more. The flavor was great but the nic was unbearable.

Any one else find this to be the case with ES los?

Odens ES hits me like truck too, but thats why i like it. The Thunder and General Ekstra Sterks are more subtle to me.

odens is yummy i have the original es los in now

ive only used OES los once and i doubt i had the pris in 5 minutes. the taste was fantastic but im not a stark user.

OESO lös kicks my butt in a good way. I was all about it at first but it's not the tastiest and I find it kind of gritty. The Kanel, though, I enjoyed a can of, and just got another today. It's something I want around as this part of the world goes through its annual four seconds of autumn.

Mojo, that's what I was going for with "fall" being here but I learned that I am not an ES guy at all.

I just can't handle that level of nic.

I've got some Oden's classic kanel, non-ES, but it's portions, in the freezer. Have yet to try cinnamon portion anything. Also some Offroad cranberry portions, and I have yet to try Offroad anything. Also a new can of Skruf Tranbar just waiting for me. All this stuff just seems so right for autumn. So much stuff to try right now; I just snuck my first portion of Taboca, and it's pretty good, now that the initial burst of saltiness is dying down. Whoo. Took me back to my very first days of snoofing--sorry, snusing.

Wrenching this back on topic, the General ES lös is a favorite right now. It's not quite as damn-powerful as the Oden's, but has (to me) a better flavor. I have yet to try Thunder lös, but I'm not really eager to do it. I'll get around to it, I guess.

I've yet to try anything from Oden's. It made you feel dizzy? Sign me up!

Well, I know Thunder Original Pouches really hit me hard for about 10 mins, then it tapers off. It's the only snus that really affects me like that. I am not a regular los user, but I dabble with it now and again, I would like to try Odens Original ES los, and Thunder O los. I find los is usually bland, not bad, usually good flavor, but not strong in the flavor dept. I only have some Phantom Brown los right now, and it's good, but I want a strong flavor.

[RRK]

I love Oden's. You know they do have a Oden's classic original.

[tom502]

I've only had the Classic of Odens. O and Kanel, and Kanel los. I have some ESO portions in the freezer I haven't tried yet. Wanna finish up these open cans of Onyx and Grov Svart and GESP 1st.

[Monkey]

I have the regular strength kanel on order right now. I also have a can of General es los in the freezer I'm gonna get to soon.

I just try to keep only two open cans at a time so I don't overwhelm myself ATM. That is where I failed last time I switched to snus- too many open cans.

Back to topic, I also got a free can of thunder ES los as my bonus can, is it as bad as the Odens? I'm almost afraid to try it.

Odens has become the only daily gotta have for me. Though it's only my am coffee snus. I have an es kanel portion straight out off bed and a loose for my commute to accompony my thermos. The rest of the day I mix it up with whatevers floating my boat ATM. Odens es kanel has become my morning crave however. I'm thinking it gets my nic level bumped first thing and I can maintain the rest of the day with just bout anything

I guess it's just different for different people. Odens XS Kanel never hits me that hard and is usually a long relaxing nicotine release that is nothing but comfortable. I am regularly an 8mg nic portion person who has the occasional los.

Right now I am enjoying some Thunder Frosted los, a good 2 click pris, and it is wonderful!

Perhaps you need to build a tolerance to sterk snus first. I know when I first began I thought I was primarily going to be a sterk person. I used Skruf Stark, N&J, General Onyx, Thunder Frosted. After a while though I began just enjoying regular portions. I think once you get your baseline down and you have a steady supply of nicotine and know your snus habits, things tend to balance out.

As it is right now for me, I never have cravings and just enjoy the portions when I want to. But my habit has my using them enough to where no cravings ever exist. It's a steady balance that definitely takes some time to obtain. New snusers will get there, but it takes a bit of time!

Thanks,

Good advice Q. I think I'm going to stick witk regular strength snus. I don't want my tolerance through the roof. I'm happy maintaining my addiction with the 8 mg stuff and don't really need sterk. Kinda had to see for myself and all.

Thanks to all for all of the input.
