Pause and Remember a Fine Snus

[olderthandirt]

I was apprised that Fiedler & Lundgren AB's Mocca Macchiato was no longer in production some time ago.

This made me sad as this particular snus made me happy. We formed a bond of caramel chocolate love within moments of our first introduction. The depths of our relationship shall remain a singular affair for me, one the like of which I may in all probability.....,

never know again.


Below is the response just received from an inquiry I made last week:

Thank you for choosing our products.
Unfortunatly Mocca Macchiato was a limited edition product and we have no plans to have it in the permanent portfolio.
If you are lucky you might find it on www.northener.com or in one of the
outlets.

While I've no concerns for myself in as much as doing anything dire as consequence of this news, I am none the less saddened.

So a toast good fellows!
A toast to a snus that served, and well at that, the needs of the afflicted.
A toast to the spirit, the essence, the beauty that was...

Mocca Macchiato.

Gone but never forgotten...

Spoken like the Fellow of Snus that you are sir

May that time be far into the future Wiz.

But yes, for a small consideration sent to my FailPal account, I will gladly immortalize your virtues with snuff inspired wordsmithing to match the bards of old!

Silly, isn't it

VERY poetic - you connoisseurs (not conna-sewers) are making my mouth 'water'

 

[TWISTED VICTOR]

I'll just sit here and shake my head with sorrowful "no, no, no"'s spewing forth. My condolences, Friend. And it was so young with much to offer...

 

[Stubby]

I never even knew ya and now your gone.

Oh well, perhaps if we yell loud enough the folks in Sweden will hear us and come out with a few good coffee flavored snuses. One can hope.

 

[Hellen A. Handbasket]

That was lovely OTD. *dabs away a tear*

Do let us know if your old friend has a miracle resurrection? (After you buy your case of it, of course.)

 

[olderthandirt]

Thank you all for gathering and sharing.

The departed has most certainly slipped the surely bonds of snusdom leaving behind little more than memories....

Good bye my little mini...

A Resurrection is highly unlikely. Damn.

 

[Caesarea]

Mustn't mocca the afflicted...
Rest in Peace, Macchiato.

All good Catholics know this, not that I ever was a good Catholic. Latin of course.

 

[TWISTED VICTOR]

Oh, makes sense now. My only other language is pig-Latin....but I also know some sign-language .

I had to "google" them myself Stubby

*sniffle*
I was so sad to see it gone before I ever knew it. It was just such a ... beautiful idea.

(Perhaps some very low-nic Mocha liquid could be used to wet a portion...? Not the same, though. Not the same.)

Me too. Just enough Sunday school to absorb the funny words and the Catholic shame.
