R42 (Classic) Super Strong White - Review. 3 September 2019.

R42 (Classic) Super Strong White - Review. 3 September 2019.

on September 03, 2019

12 June 2022 Update: This product is now available from SnusMe.com!

Several years ago, I heard about a Swedish Match product named Rocket that was for sale in the border stores (which I did eventually get to review in 2017). At one point, that product evolved into one called Revel by Rocket. Revel by Rocket eventually evolved into R42, which now is a whole range of products with mint flavors (Cool Mint, Peppermint, and Green Mint, and "Super Strong"), a licorice flavor, and a tobacco flavor. The R42 line also comes with some of the best looking snus cans on the market today - this one particularly. It's grown from a border store only product line to now being for sale on the Swedish Match e-store.

The flavor description for this one says, "Dark and spicy tobacco character with clear hints of pepper and smoke." It comes in a 10g can with 13 portions for 0.77g portions. The nicotine content is 26mg/g (2.6%), or 20.02mg/portion.

The product this most closely reminds me of is G3 TNT, in terms of the flavor. The aroma is a mild, but robust tobacco smell. It's lightly smoky, and very raw smelling. The portions are dryer than the average white portion, but not uncomfortable in the lip or anything. The flavor of this one is a mild, raw, earthy, slightly smoky tobacco flavor. It's not sweet, there's no hints of anything, it's just a straightforward tobacco taste. That's pretty exciting, given that everything is mint flavored now. The nicotine kick is quite strong, and feels well over the extra strong mark. The flavor also lasts quite a while; I've found I can usually keep this one in for up to 1-1.5 hours.

I enjoyed this one. It's a little strong for my taste, but I'm glad I got to try it. If you like the taste of tobacco and want something with a really strong kick - check this one out.

As mentioned above, this is no longer a border store or SM site exclusive, you can now buy it from SnusMe.com.

Cool Lip (Filter Tabbaq) - Review. 15 March 2019.

I recently did an order from MrSnuff.com for some stuff I've been wanting to review, and I saw this and grabbed a few pouches of it. I've never had it before, But it's made by Tej Ram Dharam Paul Pvt. Ltd in India. The description at MrSnuff.com makes this stuff sound pretty fancy: " Prepared from selected, hand-picked tobacco leaves and combined with rich spices (such as cinnamon, cardamom & cloves), the natural aroma of sandalwood oil and numerous floral essences, Cool Lip Filter Tabbaq is a highly distinguished tobacco product. " The packaging says it's a 4.2 gram pouch with 10 "filter tabbaq pillows", which would mean 0.42 grams each. I couldn't find the nicotine content listed anywhere, however. The aroma of this stuff is really interesting; it's a tobacco smell, with a little menthol, some spice, and a kinda woodsy presence. The pouches are the mini size, so I use two of these at a time. They're a little on the dry...

Grizzly "Snus" - Review. 7 August 2020.

Today's the day, and Grizzly Snus has arrived for review. A special thanks to our friend Louis in Wisconsin who hooked us up with these for review. From what I've been seeing, as of right now (August 2020), these are being sold in select markets. I've heard of people seeing the in Missouri, as well as Wisconsin. If you're not familiar with Grizzly, it's a brand produced by American Snuff Co. American Snuff Co is owned by Reynolds American, makers of Camel "SNUS and Velo Nicotine Pouches , which is why the cans look similar. Grizzly is a popular moist snuff/dip brand, so going into this I was curious how these would compare to Grizzly. I'm not a dipper, but I have had Grizzly Long Cut in the past. Looking at the can, you can tell its the same size as a Camel or Velo can. It's smaller than a regular snus can, and comes in an oblong shape. I will say this, I do like the shape of their cans. They fit great in the...
