    Snus availability over the counter in Sweden

    I will be visiting the Stockholm area (briefly) next weekend. Needless to say, I will be taking my quota of snus back to Norway. As I am still in 'try everything once' mode, I am mainly interested in certain varieties that are not easily available back home, specifically gotlandssnus yellow, göteborgs rapé #2 and landströms.

    Can I count on finding all of these in any Pressbyrån/grocery store/gas station, or will I need to visit a tobacconist?

    Hell, for all I know they have a special store for surströmming (the ultimate pris?), wasa husman and snus (maybe even in boxed sets of adorable little 10g souvenir tins) at the airport.

    From my experience you won't be able to get rarer snus in places like Pressbyrån. Maybe you should look up some specialist shops online before you go. I don't think I once saw landstrom or gotland it was mainly SM/Skruf.

    It seem like pepsi/cola over here, SM provides snus fridges for the shops on the condition they only stock mainly SM products.

      Ah, ok. Oh well.

      Are there any resident Stockholmers or other Swedes here who can recommend a centrally located and well-stocked store?

          From what I've seen when travelling over the border to Sweden, there are tobacco-stores everywhere, especially in the Charlottenberg area close to Norway. I think it's around here they sell the snus cheapest, because of all the norwegians driving over the border to buy snus at aproximately half the price of norways.
