Siberia Black (Slim Original Portion) - Review. 17 November 2020.

GN Tobacco recently launched the Siberia Black line, and has added three new additions to this flavor profile:  Slim Original, White Dry, and Slim White Dry.  Siberia is one of the strongest snus products on the world, and it originally just came in a mint flavor profile.  Now, Siberia Black brings the traditional tobacco flavor to the "insanely strong" nicotine strength category.  The flavor description for this one says, "Classic and spicy Swedish tobacco flavor – peppery and with flowery elements."  The can weighs 20g and has 24 portions, which I weighed out at 0.84g each.  The nicotine content is 43mg/g (4.3%), which breaks down o 35.69mg/portion.

When you open the can, a rich tobacco aroma greets you, along with hints of smoke, pepper, and some floral hints.  The portions are slim, moist, and quickly release flavor.  The taste is pretty solid.  It's got a rich tobacco taste, with some hints of pepper and leather.  The floral taste is in the background, and compliments the tobacco taste nicely.  There's also a subtle hint of smoke.  The nicotine hits quick, within 5-10 minutes, and feels well above the extra strong level.  I can't speak to how long the flavor lasts, as it's quite strong.

Rating and Final Thoughts

So, Siberia Black Slim Original rates at 2.71/5 for me.  I'm not the biggest fan of this stuff, though.  I think snus should be capped at 26mg/g of nicotine, because nobody really needs more than that.  Even the heaviest smokers can quit with 16-17mg/g nicotine snus.  The aroma and flavor isn't too bad, but it's much, much too strong.

If you're a fan of these super high nic products and want one that isn't mint, you'll probably enjoy this one.  It tastes pretty good, just much too strong for me, personally.
