General White

Our General, White Portion Review

Made by Swedish Match in Kungälv, Sweden, General White portion snus is classified as a White type portion which means that they do not put the portions thru the additional step in the manufacturing process that adds more moisture to them. While this leaves the portion material dry, the fact that Swedish Match uses the same soft material they use in all their snus and that the snus its self has more moisture in it than typical snus, makes the portions really comfortable in the lip for well over 2 hours and the flavors to release faster than other White type snus. Each can of General White contains 24, one gram portions that are shaped in the unique “Star” pattern that Swedish Match reserves for only the best snus and each portion contains 8 mg of Nicotine. The can is made of gray plastic with a plasticized label and the General logo on the lid. There is also a used portion compartment that’s concealed under the logo in the lid but, you’re here for the flavors so, let’s discuss that now! Swedish Match describes General White’s flavor as slightly peppery with hints of citrus zest and balanced tobacco notes but we feel the pepper and citrus flavors take center stage here. The peppery note comes from the blend of different tobaccos from around the world that are used in General White and the citrus is bergamot which had a lemon/grapefruit flavor. The salt also plays an important part in the flavor since it enhances the bergamot and actually aids in bringing out the flavor in the tobacco. Overall, General White portion snus is a great snus with a flavor that is truly special but, we want to know what you think! So, why not give a can of General White portion snus a try with your next order and tell us what you think by leaving a review of your own. We’ll be looking forward to reading it!
