Probe Whiskey Review.


I wasn't sure what to review first but since I have a Probe Whiskey portion in right now I thought I would give it a go.



Okay upon opening the can the portions were fairly wet. Which is a good thing in my opinion.
The next thing I notice is the smell is very sweet. You can still smell the tobacco but it is sweet. 

The pouch is the original portion so it is brown and moist. It does not irritate my gums at all.

Okay so Lets get onto the importat thing the taste. It is kind of hard to describe even as i have one in right now. I'm not really sure if i taste whiskey at all maybe Whiskey if you added a ton of sugar to it. It does however have a sweet smoked wood taste. My first inital impression was actually that of kool-aid brand hawaiian punch. But that faded quickly. 

Over all i think this is a decent snus not one i would use all day long but as a once in a while one after a large meal or if i'm in the mood for something sweet. 

However I do feel this Snus goes really well with a tall glass of fruit punch it seems to bring the flavors out very good. 

I would give this Snus a 3 out of 5 star rating. It is decent but not going to be in my regular rotation.

My first post woot

Well this is my first post on this blog and wanted to share with you my noob experience using swedish snus. 

I have been smoking for about 15 years now and had tried quitting many times but i'm just to addicted to nicotine.  I know what you are thinking the patch and the gum but none of that worked along with anxiety medicines. 

So one day i walked in a store and saw something by camel called Camel Snus. So i picked up a can and tried it. Upon opening the can it smelled like a container of gum or mints. I popped one in my upper lip and somewhat enjoyed the flavor. It did give me a pretty decent nicotine buzz by the way.

The best part was it was smokeless and spitless tobaco so no carrying around a spitoon or smelling like cig smoke.

This prompted me to read up about it on the internet and to my surprise when i typed in Snus on a google search nothing popped up for Camel snus. What i found instead was sites carrying Swedish Snus. Intrigued I started reading about it and found out it was much safer than smoking and that swedin where the highest amount of snusers live has the lowest rate of cancer in europe. So i ordered Two cans.

I got Gotenborgs Rape and energy snus. Got it and started using swedish snus which completley destroy's camel in quality and taste. 

And now i am smoke free and happily snusing.
