General Long and Long Sterk

These are two of the sleekest looking tins Swedish Match has put out in a while.

After this superficial quality, I’m pretty much over General Long. That doesn’t mean it’s not a good snus — it is. It’s just not for me. I’ve turned to the White side.
When I first reviewed General Original [...]


More Stars

Every time I make a guess about something involving snus, I’m wrong. At the end of this blog where I talk about Ettan getting the star formation, I theorize that G-Rape has to be the next star.
Wrong.
Swedish Match sent out an email today saying that it will be General Mint and Wintergreen, effective the beginning [...]


Snus Rumor

My wife told me today that her Swedish Match sales rep said that the company is going to be releasing another snus for U.S. brick and mortars next summer. Actually, when she told me she said, “In the summer.” I was quite excited for a few seconds until I realized that the summer is pretty [...]


This Would Make the New Catch Even Cooler…

Apparently there’s a new catch. It’s called Pure Mint and it’s supposedly a lot like the fresh peppermint from the rotating Catch Chameleon and a long portion similar to 01/02. I’m just going to link Chad’s and Larry’s posts on it. I don’t know any more than they do about it.
While the tin is cool [...]


Snus and Marijuana

I’ve been for legalization of marijuana for as long as I can remember. I’ve used it a dozen times or so, but not often and not regularly. In the past, I’ve heard tobacco rights proponents put down pot. Often, it’s in amazement to the potential legalization in face of continuing tobacco restrictions. That’s a misguided [...]


The Summer of Snus

… was probably last year. There’s not a lot going on this summer, so I’ll even follow up on a new Camel rumor.
Last week, I heard over at snuscentral that Camel Winterchill and Camel Robust were being released any day. On Saturday I stopped by a gas station near my house that carries Camel to [...]


The Snus You Love, The Snus You Need

Been awhile folks.
As I’m sure you’re aware, PACT joined us this past week. While the tax part is annoying, I understand it. Your government wants your money, it can get it however it wants to, more or less.
It the USPS ban that so fucking stupid congress and the president should be sent to clown school. [...]


Snuspocalypse?

The FDA tobacco control act goes into effect today. There’s been plenty of speculation and interpretation as to what it means for us. Now that’s here, I’m just going to sit back and watch the snus shops and the manufacturers and see what they do. The real danger isn’t what’s upon us in the next [...]


Want to Try General Scotch?

I couldn’t sleep last night. I thought I was in the clear, as on Sunday I passed out at midnight. Well, I think I got too much sleep and screwed myself. Who cares? I’m up now. Trying to write about snus factories… Brain isn’t funny, interesting or even very lucid tonight.
You may ask… [...]


New General Tins

They’re pretty cool. Check ‘em out over at original pursuit. I could steal the images so you don’t have to enter a birthday, but not today. Far too lazy. This is already about three sentences more than I intended to write.
The lids are all going like 01/02. Perhaps it’s a fraction of a penny cheaper, [...]
