Snus Review: Catch Cozy

Review: Cozy is pretty neat. It’s not like any snus flavor I’ve ever had. Sure, ol’ N&J East had a cardamom flavor in it, but it was much milder — I pop one in now from the freezer to recall the taste. N&J East tastes like Tre Ankare with a little spice to it. It [...]


1847 Original Review (Old Version)

Review: I’ve always felt that Philip Morris was the devil. Still, this snus isn’t that bad… First, the tin is top notch… oh wait… that’s going away… This isn’t starting off very well. Let’s try again. Review: It was 1847 when some English poof named Phil “Sex Machine” Morris opened his tobacco shop in London. [...]


Snus Review: Mocca Macchiato

Review: I’ve never liked any Mocca snus. So keep that in mind as you read this. This one seems to suck less. That’s a start, I guess. Like all the Moccas, they are minis and the tin’s pretty cool. This sticker around the thing said limited edition, but the can doesn’t. Probably so that if [...]


Catch Snus Off: Licorice vs. Eucalyptus

The catch snus flavors have always made me think of grandma snus. (It’s probably the eucalyptus.) Still, as they’re going to get all starred up, it’s time we take a look at them. Eucalyptus Review: This snus is basically menthol. It smells like menthol. It tastes like menthol. There’s a tangy flavor, too, which I [...]


Review: Knox Loose

Review: I decided to use Knox yesterday in a snus experiment. Unfortunately, it was censored by my wife. No matter, it didn’t work quite as I thought it would, anyway. But in the process I tried some Knox loose. And it’s surprisingly good. The tin is completely plastic, which is nice for long-term storage in [...]


Probe Whiskey Portion

Review: Until quite recently, I had never had whiskey snus. I don’t like whiskey and the snus sounded nasty. But the snus only slightly resembles anything like whiskey, and it’s actually quite good. To me, it tastes more like clove snus than whiskey snus. There is a semi-sweet smoke flavor, which is what’s probably supposed [...]


General Maxi

Review: Maxi tastes just like General Original, but it’s bigger. How much bigger? This much bigger… Large Portion: Maxi Portion: As you can see Maxi sized portions aren’t for everyone… In all seriousness, it is much bigger. I hired international lip model and adult film actress Ivanna Kissov to demonstrate the portions sizes for us: [...]


Skruf Stark White

Review: Skruf Stark White smells and tastes just like Skruf Original White. It’s a bold tobacco flavor with pepper and notes of dried flowers. Unlike many strong versions of regular-strength snus, this one doesn’t taste any more bitter. But this snus is 55% stronger, putting it up there near the you’ll-need-methadone-to-quit brands. Unlike those, however, [...]


Skruf Original White

Review: Skruf is a snus brand that has appealed to me since I first tried their cranberry portion a few years back. Released earlier this year, Skruf Original White is a little bit stronger than most regular portions. The tin is classic Skruf coolness. It’s a harder plastic than most, with a nice white can [...]


01

Review: Let me put any concerns about this snus to rest. It’s not wonky, it’s not newfangled. It’s a good snus. Let’s start with the design. I really like the number part of it, the tin otherwise is pretty unexceptional, and I’m not sure if that’s intentional or not. There’s a lot of info on [...]
