Thor's Finest Snus - Review. 30 October 2020.

Today, I'm going to be reviewing a lot of Thor's Finest Snus products.  These are products made for, and sold exclusively at, SnusPort.com.  Their website says these are made with "a mix blended with, US, Indian and Greek high quality tobacco".  These are products that they sell in bulk, and they come as the white dry format.  However, you can add water to them, which we'll talk about shortly.  In terms of pricing, if you buy their bulk products, they are pretty cheap when you break it down.  300 portions is $39.00 USD, which is $0.13 per portion, or $3.12 per "can" (calculating a can at 24 portions.  500 portions is $48.00 USD, which is $0.10 per portion, or $2.40 per can.

To calculate how much water to use, I went back to my old Sprilla DIY Snus Portion review.  In that review, I used 8ml of water for 50 portions (25 grams), to get to 45% moisture.  Doing a little math, that was around 0.16 per portion.  So, that's how much I used whenever I moistened these products up.

Ratings and Final Thoughts

In terms of ratings, I'll go through them, from highest to lowest.  Frejas Secret comes in at 2.92/5.  Regular BC at 2.89/5.  Autumn Woods Juniper at 2.83/5.  Cocky Viking at 2.79/5.  Northern Anise and Licorice at 2.79/5.  Nordic Pale Face at 2.71/5.  And lastly Spearmint at 2.63/5.  I had a lot of fun with these, mainly because I like "making my own snus", even if I'm just adding water.  Some of these, such as Nordic Pale Face would serve as good base portions to flavor with other flavors.  As they were, I enjoyed Frejas Secret the most.  Least favorite was Spearmint, because there's so many mint products already I don't get excited about mint snus anymore.  These are a good way to save money for cost-conscious snusers, and are a lot of fun to play with if you want to make/flavor snus at home!
