--Snus Reviews--

From the perspective of a former Copenhagen Snuff user. -after 30yrs dipping.

Please feel free to add your comments and share your recommendations.

A short description & history of Swedish snus:

Snus: This is not chew or dip folks. Snus is unique in that it is steam-cured rather than fire-cured, is not fermented and contains no added sugar and thus considered by many to be a safer alternative to dipping or chewing tobaccos which contain higher TSNAs and are much more proven to cause cancers amongst other health problems. Snus in it’s current form whether portion or loose has been well and alive in Sweden for over 200 years and recent studies have proven the usage amongst Swedes of snus as opposed to cigarettes have led to a much lower average of all forms of cancers as opposed to “smoking” nations. Since real snus as described in this blog is regulated as a food substance in Sweden along with being steam-cured tobacco, it is intended and normal to swallow the drip and requires no spitting.

Oden's Extra Stark Portion


This one was my first ever swedish snus and it has stuck with me ever since, unlike some others. One of the best combined with the morning coffee. Has a good strong flavor profile and delivers the Vitamin N. Great duration and tends to be moist right out of the can even when left out of the fridge a few days during usage. Oden's has a unique yet simple and straightforward tobacco flavor.

Highly recommended to the ex dipper or smoker alike as the nicotine (17 mg/portion) will satisfy those cravings.
