I was unpleasantly suprised today with a new snus. I saw a package today that said "Northerner", and for the life of me I couldn't remember what I ordered form them that SnusCentral.com didn't have. Well here it is. Oomph (formerly Wise) Citrus & Menthol. The FIRST snus I got that I didn't like. The can was dirty when I got it, like dust from shelf life or just a dirty environment, I wasn't very pleased. When I opened up the can, the inside was dirty as well, but I didn't see any burst snus pouches. So I don't know how that happened. I thought, "Well, ok, I'm sure this snus will be worth it." The container boasts whitening, breath freashening, citrus and menthol. I thought this would be a GREAT snus. It's not. The pouches were dry, I'll be honest, it looks worse than Camel Frost. The snus looks like gunpowder - completely dry. When I put it in, no flavor, no aftertaste, no buzz, nothing. It's like inhaling through a straw and pretending it's a cigarette. I got nothing out of this snus. So I can't add on this is a good transitional snus, or a great first snus, all I can say is, it's snus. That's about it. No smell, no buzz, no taste. Didn't do it for me, at all.
I am trying the Oomph 3mg snus now and I am pleasantly surprised. The "dust" is probably baking soda which is added to the snus. You have to leave this snus in your mouth for 5-10 minutes before you get through the baking soda and start getting a nice clean citrus taste. The nicotine hit is fast but small. This snus is probably aimed at people trying to stop smoking and are looking for a way to get through the worst of their cravings. I really dont want to stay addicted to nicotine forever and am hoping to switch to this snus when my supply of General Original has been depleted. Give it another shot!
