Knox isn't really a snus that seems to get much love. Nobody hardly ever talks about it for some reason, but as snus prices are one the rise - value price snuses like V2 Tobacco products and the Knox line (which is still under 4$ a can) are becoming much more appealing. To be honest, I haven't experimented much with Knox before. I reviewed
Knox White in 2009, but that's about it. Knox is a product of the Skruf AB family, and is the only "non-Skruf" snus they make. The cans have a really futuristic vibe to them, for some reason I kept thinking of Terminator when I saw the cans. I dunno why, that's just the visual feeling I got from them. The product description from
BuySnus says, "
Knox Stark portion packed snus is a new strong snus of high quality at a lower price."
When you open a can of Knox it has a very citrusy aroma, but slightly sweet, reminding me a lot of mandarine oranges. There's a dark/spicy aroma in the background following the citrus smell. The portions are medium moisture - not too moist but not too dry, right in the middle. The taste is the classic Swedish snus taste, which is good for a value priced snus and those who like that particular taste profile. The taste is a mild, but slightly sweet citrus taste with a little salt in the background and an earthy tobacco flavor. Reminds me of Skruf minus the rose oil. For a value priced snus it's not bad, pretty good flavor with a good nicotine kick.
