Go back Our General Wintergreen, White Portion ReviewIntroduced in 2008 and made by Swedish Match, General Wintergreen portion snus was the first Swedish snus to be created solely for the American market. Originally, General Wintergreen portion was only available in the U.S. at select tobacco shops but, due to its popularity, soon became available at online snus shops for worldwide delivery! General Wintergreen is classified as a White portion and does not go thru the additional wetting process at the end of production. Each can of General Wintergreen contains 24, one gram portions with 8 mg of Nicotine each. The material that Swedish Match uses for General Wintergreen is the same soft material they use in all their portions and is comfortable under the lip for over an hour and a half. General Wintergreen’s can made from a gray plastic with what looks like metallic flecks embedded in the plastic that gives the can the look of metal. The label is a foil and paper mix which also adds to the metal look and yes, the can does have a used portion lid in the top! Now, let’s take a look at the flavor and see why General Wintergreen was created for America. If you were to ask an American that uses smokeless tobacco, or Dip, what his/her favorite flavor was, about 50% would respond Skoal Wintergreen. Ask them why and most of them would say the strong wintergreen flavor and the burn in the lip! Swedish Match did their homework with General Wintergreen portion when it came to mimicking Skoal Wintergreen. While there are some subtle flavor differences between the two, the base wintergreen flavor and burn that’s loved by Skoal users, is present in General Wintergreen! For those that haven’t experienced a wintergreen flavored snus, imagine the flavor a wintergreen Life Saver, take away a bit of the sweetness, add a hint of mild tobacco and salt and you have the flavor of General Wintergreen. We think this snus is perfect for the American smokeless tobacco user that wants to transition to Swedish snus but, we’ll let you decide! Be sure to let us know what you think of General Wintergreen portion by leaving a review of your own. We’ll be looking forward to reading it!

The wintergreen flavor is good but not enough nic kick for me. I wish that General would make a strong version of the wintergreen and mint flavors. This snus is a once or twice daily snus for me at present but I can't do it all day it starts to get to me after awhile. Several pouches have broken open on me with both the mint and the wintergreen. The original has never broken.

Tried the Wintergreen and was pleasantly surprised. I'm a new user of snus and only have tried the camel types before and this blows them out of the water. I've tried the white portion too and the paste is amazing but a little to get used to. Good NIC and comfortable to use for over an hour. Highly recommended!

Good flavor and nic hit. Helped me to stop smoking. Looking forward to trying Onyx that I ordered. Tastes the best out of the refrigerator. Very comfortable to leave in for an hour...great product General!

I just got some of this in the General trial packs (pouches). First, the pouches are great cause they keep snus fresh. I had never tried wintergreen before, and I liked the taste very much, maybe just a little bit of lip burn at the beginning and I am not very fan of this situation, but it is part of this snus and as I read it is intended to be like this, but it's ok. Nice decent nic hit. It's kinda sweet and that's ok. I give it a 4 out of 5

Great Snus, I have tried quite a few other versions of wintergreen and this on has the right balance of tobacco wintergreen flavor and nicotine. Does not cause me to produce too much saliva like others do, is not overly sweet and the portion material is the most comfortable I have used. 4.5 out of 5 the only reason it did not earn a 5 is for the first minute the flavor comes on with too much tobacco.
