That one includes "stark" posrtion, which is double-strength. Even many seasoned snusers avoid it. Too much nicotine in one go. Unless you cut the portins in two to get regular strenght.
I got some Camel snus today. Man that stuff is strong.
Has anyone ever tried to make eliquid from this stuff. I have read some of the efforts that people have gone to to make juice from other nico products. It seems like this one is ideal.
Mix some PG and or VG, soak these pouches in it and the vap away. The flavoring is already there.
I wonder if anyone has tried it yet.
I don´t know what the salt would to to the atomizer.
What exactly is SNUS?
The station that I buy my Camels from was giving a tin of Snus with purchase. I tried one, and it reminded me of Skoal Bandits (weaker).
I assume it is tobacco based. I may look at these as another alternative. Any brand recommendations?
I tried these pouches too (mellow flavour), last night, because of TropicalBob's advocation. I had one, got a little buzz, so tried another maybe 20 min later. Wow, I got a buzz and a headache :P I'm not used to that much nic I guess, I only smoke Marlboro lights, and only half a pack a day.
On a side note, I was generating spit.
Camel Snus is the only snus I ever tried and I think it's great. The flavor is good and the nicotine hit is strong.... Of course I was never a really heavy smoker so that might effect my opinion on what is strong.... It doesn't make me spit though...... Overall I think its a great way to get nicotine without smoking.
I think TropicalBob may have said something about this already in his helpful informative posts, but I find these things deliver the nicotine in a more gradual way that tends to builds up over the course of an hour, unlike smoking which delivers it almost immediately in one quick chunk. So, you probably don't want to do that. Certainly not at first when you don't have intuitive experience with the different dosing curve from them.Originally Posted by angel.white
I've been a two pack a day smoker for many years who has very recently started trying Snus (sampling domestic & Swedish) and I find them at first unsatisfying in the immediate way that a cigarette is, but with a little time the nicotine kicks in fully, and even with my high nicotine tolerance it'd be just too much for me to pop in another after only 20 minutes. Even the Camel Snus with only something like 6-8mg (the Swedish varieties I'm so far liking best have as much as 16mg) I find the nicotine effect gradually builds for as long as hour or so, and I'd suggest waiting at least that long before reaching for another. At least while first getting used to them. Even a heavy smoker like me.
I tired something similar, I think it was the Marlboro packet and I thought I was going to be sick for hours. I could not keep it in my mouth for over 5 minutes.
I smoke over a pack a day and could not handle that stuff. Maybe I should try the extraction method with my leftovers.
Excellent suggestion, Mohave. A Camel snus is pleasant tasting and can easily last an hour. Very few people chain-smoked cigarettes all day, and it's no more valid to chain-snus all day. Use one. Rest a bit. Use another. A really rough day for me means using about six pouches.
Radiokaos: I think Marlboro snus are now off the market. A major complaint was that they weren't nearly strong enough. Regular snus users pegged them at about 2mg each. Maybe these aren't for you if you reacted poorly to a Marlboro. All others are stronger.
Among the Camel Snus, I found the "mellow" variety most pleasant for my taste as a smoker of bulk tobacco varieties that resemble a slightly stronger version of the kind of blend used to make regular full strength Marlboros. I imagine the "frost" flavor Camel Snus might appeal to a menthol smoker. I thought "frost" tasted like sucking on a peppermint stick. I don't like peppermint sticks. I like tobacco. Mellow tasted of tabacco to me.
I think Camel Snus "mellow" could possibly work for me as my main tobacco product if the price/quantity/value equation was a little better. Swedish Snus are available in a much wider range of strengths and unique complex tastes, and provide more product for less money. But I personally have liked the Camel mellow well enough.
