General Extra Sterk Strong Portion Snus

Our General Extra Sterk, Strong Portion Review

Introduced in 2008 and made by Swedish match AB in Göteborg, Sweden, General Ekstra Sterk portion snus is another entry in the race for the “Strongest snus in the world”. General Ekstra Sterk is classified as a an Extra Strong, regular type portion meaning that not only is the Nicotine content over 14 mg per portion, the portions go thru a final step in the manufacturing process that adds a bit more moisture the each, allowing the flavors to marry and release it faster when it’s in your lip. The material that Swedish Match uses in General Ekstra Sterk portion is the same soft material they use in all their snus which is pretty comfortable in the lip for about 2 hours. Each can contains 24, one gram portions with each having 15 mg of Nicotine. General Ekstra Sterk’s can is made of black plastic with the signature General label printed in black with grey accents. There is a used portion compartment in the lid as well but, you’re here to find out about the flavors, not the can so, on to taste! The trademark flavors of tobacco, salt and lemon, which you would expect in the General line, are also in General Ekstra Sterk but not as predominant. The main flavors here are of the hand selected tobaccos from around the world and a smoky element that’s unique to General Ekstra Sterk. This smoky flavor gives the snus a subtle sweetness that mixes well with the tobacco and lemon. The black pepper flavor is only a background taste here as well as the salt. There is a slight burn in the back of the throat but it’s from the high amount of Nicotine and is found in all snus with Nicotine levels over 14 mg. It’s not a strong burn and is really tolerable for the 30 minutes it’s there but, this is what we think. We want to know your thoughts! So, why not add a can of General Ekstra Sterk portion snus to your next order and leave a review of your own letting us know what you taste. We’ll be looking forward to reading it!
