Thunder Cool Mint portion snus, reviewing a sweeter Thunder Mint!


                                                      Welcome Back Snustopians!

Well, as you can imagine, every television here in Skruf Square has been tuned in to the 2012 Olympic Games for the past five days, including the three here in my office! As I sat there watching the White Water rafting trials and deciding on which snus to review, I was taken back to a scene I saw while in Denmark last month. The weather was nice and cool and while we walked along the river that ran thru Silkeborg, we stumbled across a small rapids. I had a portion of Thunder Cool Mint in and thought what a peacefull view and Thunder Cool Mint portion snus was the perfect snus for a day like this! Then I remembered that Thunder Cool Mint is a relatively new snus in the V2 Tobacco portfolio and decided that this will be the snus we will review this week! So, set your DVR's to record some of the Olympics, grab a portion or prilla of your favorite snus and a cold drink and let's begin our review of Thunder Cool Mint portion snus by V2 Tobacco!

Göteborgs Rapè White Large Lime portion snus by Swedish Match. Reviewing the boldest flavor in the Göteborgs family!

Greetings Snustopians!

I know, I know, it's been quite a long time since we've been together and actually reviewed snus. The past year has been a pretty hectic one here in Snustopia and I must apologize for not being here to bring the new Snustopians reviews on all of the new snus flavors that are out there today. As I sit here, it's hard to believe that in only 2 short years we've seen such a huge influx of new flavors from so many different manufacturers! I can remember back to a time when Swedish Match only had 45 types of snus in their portfolio and ..."Hey Snus Guy, as much as we'd love to hear about your walk down memory lane, we want to hear about Göteborgs Rapè Lime!". Well, as you can see I'm still the same Snus Guy and I still ramble on so, without any further delay, sit back, pop in a portion and let's get started on our review of Göteborgs Rapè White Lime portion snus!

Swedish snus in Demark II, Reviewing the manufacturing process!


Welcome back Snustopians!
Well, as we learned in the last article, not all Swedish snus is made in Sweden. While the credit for it's conception seems to have gone to Sweden, it's now proven that Denmark did indeed produce snus back in the early 1800's, at the same time that some of the early Swedish snus brands, like Ettan for example, were being produced! While that was over 150 years ago, the tradition of snus making in Denmark continues with V2 tobacco and their Thunder, Offroad and Phantom brands of Danish made, Swedish snus. "You told us all about that in the last article Snus Guy! We want to know about how they make it!" And in this article, we will go thru a tour of the new V2 plant and how two Americans were privileged enough to work on the manufacturing lines to see just how, exactly, V2 makes their world renowned snus brands. So sit back, pop in a portion of Thunder Cool Mint and let's see just how they do it!

Swedish snus made in Denmark! Reviewing V2 Tobacco!

Greetings Snustopians!

You heard me right folks, some of the most popular, and strongest, snus brands in the world are being produced in the town of Silkeborg, Denmark by a family run company called V2 Tobacco. Last week, I, along with Julls from SnusCENTRAL, was privilaged enough to have been able to spend 4 days in this beautiful country and even more privilaged to spend an entire day at V2's production facility. We were given exclusive access to not only the factory it's self but, to actually work on the lines to see exactly how the products we all know and enjoy, are made! So, grab a can of Thunder Cool Mint, a cold drink and a seat and let's learn how V2 Tobacco makes its phenominal snus!
