Oden's Lakrits (Original Portion) - Review. 6 January 2012.

Review Updated:  27 June 2022

I was recently sorting videos into playlists at SnubieTV.com (our new home on Utreon) and realized of all the re-reviews and ratings I've done over the past few years, I haven't done a lot of Oden's Snus ones.  This week I'm going to work on that!  I'm starting with many regular strength GN Tobacco products (yes, they do make those), and today we're checking out Oden's Lakrits (Original Portion)!  The product description for this one says, "A well balanced licorice flavor that doesn’t overpower the classic tobacco flavor".  Each can weighs 20 grams and contains 20 portions, for 1 grams each.  The nicotine content is 9mg/g (0.9%), or 9mg/portion.

Ever since I first tried it back in 2012, this has long since been one of my favorite licorice flavored snus products available.  They also make a loose version of this one, that is pretty top notch.  When you open the can, the licorice aroma that comes through is quite nice.  It's a gentle, semi-sweet, smooth black licorice aroma.  It's subtle, and comes with an earthy base tobacco in the background.  The pouches are nice and plump, moist, and pretty soft in the lip!  The flavor profile is quite nice!  The black licorice flavor that comes through is gentle, and mellow.  It's semi-sweet, but not overly sweet.  The base tobacco is a nice compliment, and has an earthy tone to it.  I like that it's clearly present, but not overpowering.  In terms of strength, this one feels right at the regular strength level.  The flavor, on average, lasts about 45-50 minutes.

Rating and Final Thoughts

GN Tobacco makes a lot of high nicotine products, but they also make some normal products, like this one.  I wanted to review a lot of these to help show some of the other side of GN Tobacco, with their more normal, humane products.  This one, across the board, was all 4's.  Meaning, an overall average of 4/5.  It's a really good snus.  Especially if you're into licorice products.  I'd also suggest trying out the loose version, which is pretty tasty as well!
