Default Goteborgs Rape White snus....

Ok, it's been in my mouth for 10 minutes...can I take it out yet?

Someone asked for my opinion on it and all I can say is....pine tree It definitely is different, and I will give it more than one shot since some have said it's an "acquired taste". I guess it's juniper berries or something, which I'm not at all familiar with, and it is a very strong flavor. I'm more used to the minty snus so maybe that's why it almost seemed like torture to leave it in my mouth long enough to get the full flavor going. Right now I'd have to say I don't like it, but I didn't like coffee either the first time I tried it and now I'm very much a regular at Starbucks

Most of the non-mints are an aquired taste. I've found that the drink that I'm having while snusing can effect the taste of certain snus. My personal favorites are Mint with coffee, Diet 7-Up with "Goat Rape" and Roda Lacket, and Diet Dr. Pepper with Onyx.
Some may find that weird or nasty.
The point though, is to try it with different beverages. You may find something you really like with it by experimenting.
That's part of the fun.

In the mean time? Take it out, darn it!
You're supposed to be enjoying yourself!

Oh I did take it out right after I finished that post! And hmmm, was drinking pink lemonade at the time too...I'm sure that didn't help the situation

Got to say I didn't like that one at first but it's now growing on me. Just ordered 2 more last night.

You may want to try Roda Lackett. It has a nice fruity taste like strawberries to me.

Yes it is. Like gin. I like it. Sophisticated snusers are known to affectionately refer to it by the technical term "goat rape."

I guess I'm going to have to read up on becoming an afore-mentioned sophisticated snuser

I imagine you'll be equally charmed by the expression "raping the goat" which I've seen on a snuser discussion board in reference to using that product. I'm sure the name is pronounced differently in Swedish (like "raw-pay" perhaps?) and no doubt has a very different meaning in that language, but I haven't yet found an online English/Swedish dictionary that can tell me what that might be.

I think it really does resemble gin though, and I suspect those who never liked the taste of a dry gin or gin & tonic probably wouldn't be fond of this either.
