Trying very first snus now (and yes, I'm a female)

[Elwin]

Just a heads up for the lady snusers here.

V2, the company that makes Thunder, Offroad, and other brands are going to introduce a new brand just for you.
Calling the new brand Fellinni, they should be available late this summer, or early fall.

HOLY MOLY!!!

I got my Stonewalls today - I popped in a java, I've had to take it out TWICE now - this stuff is pretty darn strong! I can totally FEEL it

Don't have any of the java ones here, but I did buy a 5 pack of the wintergreen. A little strong tasting, but still goooooooooooooood

I keep getting this weird feeling that I have a LUMP in my chest/throat - after a few minutes of having one in my mouth - its just weird.

Anyone else have that happen!?
It goes away a few minutes after I take the stonewall out.

I get that with snus sometimes. It's annoying at the very least, but sometimes it's enough to make me almost gag. I think my throat doesn't like getting nicotine on it, which is why I try to swallow as little as possible, or have something to drink handy. Have you tried Ariva instead of Stonewall? Half the strength, maybe half the discomfort / grody taste? I like Stonewalls myself and they don't have any effect on my throat, thankfully.

Wild, I got my Java Stonewalls today too. I'm not having any of those problems with them.

I'm guessing if you have never tried snus or the Stonewalls, your body is just not use to that kind of nic yet. It should go away the more you use them.

My very first snus (General Wintergreen) put me in such a tranquil state, it put me to sleep...well it was fun while it lasted, as it never happened again.

[Wildsky]

Well I hope it doesn't last long, it almost feels like I swallowed something and it got stuck - you know when you take a pill and your throat is dry and that "lump" stays there... thats what it felt like. Except drinking something didn't help it go away - it went away on its own but a little while later.

I managed to go all afternoon without vaping! Which is good, I want to give up that habit now too - LOL.....
I'm just swopping one habit out for another. LOL

Or you can just cut a Stonewall in half...one package of Stonewalls is the same price as the Ariva so it would make sense to just cut one in half. It would be like getting 2 boxes of Ariva for the price of one
