    Default Camel Snus

    I bought a couple of these over the weekend to give a try. I like the Frost though it's a tad sweeter than I would like. Problem I;m having with it is the pouches seem to break or disintergrate after about 20 minutes. Happened 3 or 4 times now with the Frost. I also tried plenty of the General and never had one do this. Any one else having this issue? Not a big deal just a little annoying.

    Whoa. Hasn't happened to me -- yet. But the pouches are strangely looooong and the end pieces sometimes fold over on me. Not good. If you're suggesting the Camel pouches aren't up to General standards, then I agree.

    I guess that's what I'm suggesting then. Or maybe it's the snus noobie being to rough on them. I really like the General mini mints so far just wish they were a tad bit stronger in the nic dept.

    I tried them and didn't have any problem with them breaking up either. General is my fav. Camel snus is WAY to sweet and gives me horrible heartburn.

    Sorry, I didn't try mine yet.

    Yes sweet they are. Ive been using them first thing in the morning only. Once they are gone I probabaly won't buy it anymore unless I'm totally out and have no choice. Looking forward to placing an order with Northener on payday to get a little variety. I do like the General stuff so far. Thinking of tryint the top 10 sampler they have to start.

    Actually I bought a 10-can sampler and quickly found out my size is the mini, so I just cut the regular ones with a knife (after separating tobacco to the sides a bit) and use them by halves. Even in this way I do not have problems with them disintegrating before they are exhausted after an hour or so and I start playing with then, sucking the taste and relocating the pouch. Even then it´s usually just tiny bits of tobacco that fall loose. After an hour or so in one place they become very compact and sort of wet-pressed which might be the reason.

    This worked for General and Ettan for me.

    smokingclam: If you are thinking of this: Starting Kit, swedish snus, tobacco, General White, Ettan Portion, Wise Citrus/Menthol, Goteborgs Rape, General Mini, CatchDry Eucalyptus, Northerners Energy Snus, General Portion, I can only recommend it. Even though it is a bit General-heavy, it is a perfect sampler.

    The Camel Frost hasn't given me any issues as far as disintegration goes, they're just not very strong...

    Actually it 's the second one they have I was looking at....Top 10, Snus Box, swedish snus, tobacco, Lucky Strike Original, Nick & Johnny, Roda Lacket, Grovsnus, Goteborgs Rape, Catch Eucalyptus, Wise Citrus/Menthol, Ettan Portion, Skruf Stark Portion, General Portion

    I'm pretty stocked up on General stuff right now cause I can buy that locally.
