Artisan Summer Chili Mango
SnusExpress.com Description: “Artisan Summer Chili Mango Slim (Ldt. Edition) is an original portion snus designed by Chad “Snubie” Jones together with The Snus Factory that uses the power of nostalgia to create something new, unique and delicious! This Artisan snus has a dark and robust tobacco character, and it treats you to a fruity flavor experience where you’re first greeted by juicy mango and hints of ripe peaches which is then finished of by a light touch of spicy chili. A nuanced and summery burst of flavor that is enhanced by a powerful and extra strong nicotine kick (15.4 mg/portion). Its original snus portions are slim sized for an optimal fit, and they have humidified surfaces that results in an instant release of both flavor and nicotine. The tobacco leaves used are grown in Central America and Asia, and they’re carefully selected to ensure absolute highest quality.”
Snubie’s Comments: This one won’t be around for much longer, so I wanted to include it in this list for people stocking up for the Summer of 2024! This is one of my all time favorite snuses, mainly because I made it. My wife and I went on a cruise to Central America last year, and I brought it along with me and really have an attachment to this one. It has an interesting flavor blend of mango and peach, but with a hint of spicy chili in the background. Honestly, this is the perfect snus for the summer. To me, really the main one that encapsulates that classic taste of summer that I love!
Jakobsson’s Strongcola Original Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “A flavorful original portion snus from the Swedish manufacturer Gotlandssnus. Its regular sized portions deliver strong nicotine kicks (14 mg/portion) together with a sweet and savory cola flavor that is topped with a dash of citrus. The humidified surfaces of its soft and comfortable portions ensure that they provide an instant and satisfyingly powerful release of both flavor and nicotine”
Snubie’s Comments: In the summertime, there is nothing better than an ice cold glass of cola. And, nothing pairs better with that than this snus! Jakobsson’s Cola has a sweet taste of cola that fits just right in the warm summer months. I wish they made a loose snus of this one, I’d use it all the time. But, as it sits, this one is a must try. The slim white portion is also good, but I suggest the original portion version over that one, personally.
Jakobsson’s Melon Original Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “An original portion snus from the Swedish manufacturer Gotlandssnus that offers a deliciously flavorful snus experience! It has a well-rounded tobacco character, and it delivers a sweet melon flavor topped with tones of pear. A tasty burst of flavor that is accompanied by a strong and satisfying nicotine kick (14 mg/portion). The humidified surfaces of its regular sized and soft original portions ensure that they provide an instant and powerful release of both flavor and nicotine”
Snubie’s Comments: Jakobsson’s Melon has been in my summer snus rotation for as long as I can remember. The slim white portion is good, don’t get me wrong, but the original portion version really captures that big, juicy, bold taste of melon! If you want a classic summer snus to have in your personal rotation, this is one I’d suggest over any other flavors.
Jakobsson’s Wintergreen White Slim Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “Jakobsson´s Wintergreen Slim White by the Swedish manufacturer Gotlandssnus is a perfect snus for you who want something minty, stimulating and discreet. It has a mild tobacco character and it delivers a fresh and slightly sweet wintergreen flavor. A refreshing burst of flavor that is accompanied and enhanced by a strong nicotine kick (9 mg/portion).”
Snubie’s Comments: If you know me, you know wintergreen is a hit and miss flavor for me. Sometimes I crave it. Sometimes I don’t want it. It just depends on the time. But, summertime is one of those times where I really crave wintergreen. In the summer, we spend a lot of time outdoors. So, I always have a can of something wintergreen in my pocket. Usually, it’s either this one or the original portion version of Jakobsson’s Wintergreen. This is a must have for the summer months!
Kapten Melon White Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “A white portion snus from Kapten and the manufacturer Swedish Match that offers a stimulating and flavorful snus experience! It has a well-rounded tobacco character, and it delivers extra strong nicotine kicks (16,5 mg/portion) together with a fruity melon flavor. The somewhat dry surfaces of these white and regular sized portions reduce their drip, which in turn lengthens their release of both flavor and nicotine”
Snubie’s Comments: I like Jakobsson’s Melon, don’t get me wrong, but this one I think I may like slightly more. While Jakobsson’s Melon has a taste of watermelon, this one is more of a mild, gentle taste of honeydew and cantaloupe. It has a nice melon taste, but it’s not as sweet, and comes across in a more balanced way. It’s one that doesn’t get talked about as much, but it’s a good one that should be considered more often!
Lundgren’s Norrland White Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “Embark on a flavor journey to the northern most part of Sweden with Lundgrens Norrland Vit from the manufacturer Fiedler & Lundgrens! A white portion snus with medium strong nicotine kicks (8 mg/portion) that delivers a nuanced flavor of well-rounded tobacco topped with hints of spruce tips and mountain flowers. Its well-filled and white portions have perforated surfaces, bringing you to closer to the flavor and allowing you to experience a faster release of both flavor and nicotine. The can itself has a FLEXLOCK. A lid with an expandable compartment for used portions with a bigger storage capability than regular standard lids”
Snubie’s Comments: This is one that has a nice outdoorsy taste. I spend a lot of time in the woods in the summertime camping, and this is one I always have with me. It has a really nice taste of tobacco, spruce, and pine, and is a perfect companion for those times you’re out in nature and enjoying the woods. There’s also a stark version of this one if you want something with a little extra kick to it!
Lundgren’s Vastkusten White Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “Lundgrens Västkusten Vit is a white portion snus that evokes the cozy feeling of long summer nights, refreshing ocean breezes and clear blue skies best experienced on the Swedish west coast! This medium strong (8 mg/portion) Lundgrens Snus delivers a well-rounded and mild tobacco flavor that incorporates tasty nuances of heather and rose hip. Its well-filled and perforated portions are designed to deliver an instant release of both flavor and nicotine. Their white character minimizes their drip which in turn ensure that this release last for a satisfyingly long time. The can’s FLEXLID has the ability to expand and can therefore store more used portions compared to regular standard lid”
Snubie’s Comments: I love being on the water in the summer months. This one has a nice taste that really reminds me of the brisk, crisp, salty sea air! It’s one of the Lundgren’s line that doesn’t get talked about much, but I think it’s one of their best flavors, up their with Norrland for me in terms of flavor quality! If you’ve never had it before, this is one you’ll want to try.
Nick and Johnny Americana Original Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “Nick & Johnny Americana Xtra Strong Original – A powerful snus from Swedish Match that combines spicy goodness with tasty sweetness, giving this snus a flavor profile that reminds some people of a combination of root beer and Dr. Pepper. A unique combination of flavor that works brilliantly together. Its original portions have spicy tobacco characters, and they deliver extra strong nicotine kicks (16.5 mg/portion) together with a flavor where clear hints of cherry and almond is complemented by tasty notes of violet, wintergreen and raspberries.”
Snubie’s Comments: The summer means a lot of things. Holidays, time at the beach or a lake, fireworks and backyard BBQs! If there is ONE snus that captures the feeling of the summertime, it’s this one. The classic Nick and Johnny Americana! This is one that I always have around, but is one that I use a lot more in the summertime. It’s a beautiful flavor that is almost like a Cherry Dr. Pepper. You owe it to yourself to try this one out!
One Red Original Portion
SnusExpress.com Description: “One Röd Vit by Swedish Match is a white portion snus that gets its inspiration from Nordic forests. It has a well-rounded tobacco character, and it delivers strong nicotine kicks (13 mg/portion) together with a delicious flavor of wild berries. Its soft and comfortable portions have thin and somewhat dry surfaces. These attributes ensure that they deliver an instant and satisfyingly long-lasting release of both flavor and nicotine”
Snubie’s Comments: These last two have berry flavors that always make me think of summer. Both are good, so I’d say get both of them. One Red has really nice pouches, and a dark tobacco base. The berry flavor isn’t super bold, nor is it too sweet. It’s quite good.
Vårgårda Bär
SnusExpress.com Description: “A white portion snus from the manufacturer JTI that offers a flavorsome snus experience! It has a light and spicy tobacco character and flavor that incorporates tones of red forest berries and elderberries. A nuanced composition of flavors that is complemented by a medium strong and solid nicotine kick (10 mg/portion).”
Snubie’s Comments: This one is similar to One Red, but has a more standard snus portion. The tobacco taste isn’t as dark, and this one seems more balanced. I like this one a little bit more, but both are quite good!
The Bottom Line
And there you have it! A lot of GREAT snus flavors for the summer. I personally plan on using all of these this summer. I’d also suggest checking out loose snus, because when you’re relaxing in nature, nothing is better than loose. But, if you like portions, this is a great way to go! So, go grab a can or two of each flavor and get ready for the warm summer months! Winter is finally over, Spring is calling it a close, and Summer is HERE!
