Oomph snus

[KathyD26]

Has anyone tried this purified snus? I know it has to be ordered from Northerner in Sweden vs the USA site but it looks interesting to me. I tried a few different brands of snus last month and the only one I cared for was the General Mini Mints. It seemed to tame the craving without giving me GERD or turning me off. Also tried some Stonewalls and felt they were to strong for my taste.
I have been vaping for 3 months and still cannot totally give up the analogs. (Although I've cut the analog use by 1/2) I've also tried higher mg. juices and mods. I have been following the other thread "Are we getting it-nicotine" and have identified myself as a cat. 3 or 4. I think the answer for me will have to be a snus/vaping combo, but was really hoping that vaping alone would have done it. But, nothing worthwhile is easy for some of us.

I use the Purified snus on occasion so I alway keep some around. The purified works differently then other snus as the nicotine hits fast as opposed to the usual slow nicotine hit of regular snus. You do have to be careful as the 6 mg oomp will hit as hard as a strong snus. A downside is that it doesn't last very long.

The only kind I use is the 3 mg. My smoking had gotten to the point where if I woke up at night I needed a smoke to get back to sleep. After I quit I found I sometimes needed a quick little hit of nicotine to get back to sleep if I woke up and the 3 mg oomp works very well for that. Pop one in and I back to dream land. I have doubts if it would work as an all day snus as I prefer the slow acting stuff to keep my nicotine levels at a nice even level though out the day.

If the minis are enough for you to keep the demons at bay there are a number of other minis that you would want to check out. Northerner has a good selection of mini whites. The Mocca line is good, and there is a new Fellinni line of mini whites. I haven't been doing the minis for a while as it's not enough for me but there are more coming on line all the time to appeal to women snusers. If you need a bit more nicotine hit but want to stay with the minis check out Thunder Frosted mini. I know VC is a big fan of it.

Thanks so much Stubby. I think after the holidays I'll order some. BTW, what are the approx. shipping charges from over there? I am thinking it must be around $15.00 or so.

When you order from Northerner make sure to have it shipped via Swedish post. It's actually not that expensive. If I remember right it's around $5.00. Do not have it shipped with UPS as that is very expensive.

I have some Oomph! - it gives a pretty instant nic hit.
Nice.

Instant nic hit huh? Sounds like it would work well first thing in the morning. Do you also use the 3mg?
Stubby, glad you mentioned the Swedish Post, that makes a big difference!
