--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.

Offroad Cranberry Loose


Having tried several lös snus of which I won't mention at this time as I'm still discovering my impressions, this OR Cranberry is leaving me with a very favorable opinion thus far. 2 Cliks on my homemade icetool syringe, and the prilla holds together nicely and the flavor can be felt immediately unlike some other lös I have tried whereas you have to be patient and wait 20 or 30 min.s to appreciate. I am getting a nice natural sweet and slightly tart cranberry as well as a pleasant burn. This one has me poking my tongue up constantly to enjoy even more flavor and thankfully the pris has been forgiving and not turned into a mudslide as of yet. This one is worthwhile for anyone to try whether you are into subtle or more pronounced flavors.

At (8 mg/g) nicotine, this one won't knock your socks off but rather please with its excellent cranberry goodness!
