Kapten Lakrits (Los) - Review (Discontinued). 18 September 2014.

NOTE:  This product has been discontinued and is no longer for sale.

Kapten is the main product line of AG Snus, much like General from Swedish match.  This snus isn't for sale at the time via BuySnus or SnusCENTRAL, but hopefully that will change eventually. If you're in the US, Snus24.com carries a few of these, but not all of them. So these reviews are mostly for a friends across the pond in the EU who are interested in Kapten Snus. The Kapten brand is described as, "...a snus from the Danish producer AG Snus and builds on knowledge from five generations of tobacco crafts. Kapten Snus is a traditional snus with classic elements like bergamot flavor but has been given a modern touch which makes Kapten a popular and affordable snuff. The product is available in many forms, including Original Portion, White Portion, Mini Pouches and Loose."

This is my second AG Snus to try in los form, and the grind of this one is very much the same. It's quite fine, so I suggest using an Icetool to put this one together, it's not the easiest to work with.  This snus is described as, "...a loose snus with classic tobacco flavor with hints of licorice." When you open the can, the aroma is more pronounced than the White Portion - it's a balance of black licorice and tobacco. The taste is more bold than the White Portion as well, the flavors of salty black licorice are present, but the tobacco flavor is equally as present and balanced with the licorice taste.
