Smokejuice from eliquidplanet.com

Good stuff! The previous juice I tried was a bit weak, and my expectations were low.  But I read some reviews on various forums and decided to give eliquidplanet a shot.  I ordered a bottle of their “Turkish Blend” to see if it was similar to Camel at all.  I also ordered some “555″ just because [...]

DSE901 Mini e-Cigarette

I’ve been using my DSE901 for a few months now.   I bought it from Heaven Gifts.  Rather than going with a pre-packaged ’starter kit’, I had done my research and I knew what I wanted.  So I bought a battery, atomizer and package of blank cartridges. As for smoke-juice, I first tried their “Flu-Cured Tobacco” [...]

Nick & Johnny’s Strong

When you really… and I mean really… want a smoke… Nick & Johnny’s. I was actually surprised the other night when I read that GrovSnus Svart (Black) was a “strong” snus and contains the same amount of nicotine.  I bought it specifically for that purpose.  But after using it, I was convinced that I read it [...]

Phantom Classic Blue

I really like this one.  After the Offroad Coffee/Vanilla and Jakobsson’s Ice Fruit, I was really getting turned off by ‘flavored’ snus-es.  I just wanted some plain tobacco flavor.  But I tried this one anyway.  To my surprise, it was very satisfying.  The flavor was that of mild tobacco, but herbal.  It wasn’t like tea [...]

General Sterk White Portion

This afternoon I was really Jones-ing for a smoke.  But I couldn’t get the nasty, foul smell and taste of the last smoke out of my mind.  On the advice of a fellow snus-er at Snuson.com, I cracked open a tin of General Sterk white portion.  As it is a ‘white portion’, the flavor and [...]

Jakobsson’s Ice Fruit

I packed this along for a 3-hour drive.  When I first tried it, the “ice” was a bit overwhelming, but that only lasted about 30 seconds.  After that, the flavor was very much like that of Juicy Fruit chewing gum. But, like the chewing gum, it lost its flavor quickly.  During the drive I stopped [...]

Camel Snus: Frost

Yes, I did buy some Camel Snus Frost to try.  The first thing I noticed was the price.  It was the same as a pack of cigarettes (about $4.50) while a tin of Ettan is only $3.50. [A side-note about price:  as a pack-a-day smoker, a $4.50 pack of 20 cigs last me one day.  [...]

General Original Portion

General Original Portion:  Being new, though I loved Ettan, I didn’t want to settle with it as my “go to” without trying other non-flavored snus-es.  The General brand is, as I understand, the “Marlboro” of snus in Sweden.  What do I think? 

Goteborg’s Rape No. 2 White Portion

A lot of people seem to like Goteborg’s No. 2 White Portion, as their “go to” snus… but I just don’t get it.  I mean, it is good, but to me it tastes/smells a bit too flowery.  It’s like, well, sucking on a flower.  The experience is less like tobacco and more like herbal [...]

Offroad Original Portion

Offroad markets themselves in the ‘low price segment’ and many of the reviews I read reflected a level of negativity.  But I actually enjoyed it.  I’m having one (my last one) right now.  The tobacco flavor is a bit stronger than Ettan, and after a bit the hint of citrus kicks in.  The only negative [...]
