General Onyx is pulling a Michael Jackson and going from black, to white. Swedish Match says, "When General Onyx was launched in 2005 the pouches where black…… But since Scandinavian consumers prefer white pouches, Swedish Match will change the Onyx pouches to white pouches starting next week." Not sure what this will mean for the name, but I'm sure the taste will stay the same. Black portions receive the same treatment/production that White portions do, they're just simply a different color. I'm sure Onyx will taste the same, but will now be in a White portion instead of the traditional Black portion we're used to.Check out our full review of General Onyx (Black Portion) here!
Also coming soon from the Swedish Match update files, Kronan will be getting a catch lid. To be honest, I couldn't even remember if Kronan had one or not until I checked my review from a few months ago, and sure enough, the Kronan can didn't have one. So now, if you're a Kronan fan, you'll have a place to dispose of your used portions. Look for that to come soon as well.
I like the black pouches of General Onyx that's the whole point of them! If you change the pouch from black to white then its no longer ONYX... Why do they mess with a good thing? I hope this trend doesn't continue to Grov next.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they'll change the name to Ivory.
