What We Have To Say

Gotlandssnus Original portion snus is another fine snus manufactured by the folks at Gotlandssnus AB. Gotlandssnus Original, or Gotland’s Yellow (Gul) as it’s more commonly known, is classified as a regular type portion because it goes thru an additional step in the manufacturing process to add additional moisture to each portion. This additional moisture helps the flavors in the snus meld together and brings the flavors out faster. Each can of Gotland’s Original has 24, one gram portions with 9mg of Nicotine each. The portion material used in Original is the same teabag type material used in all Gotlandssnus snus and is soft and comfortable under the lip for about 2 hours! Gotlandssnus also uses a variety of tobacco from around the world to produce Gotland’s Original including Alida tobacco that’s actually grown on the island of Gotland, Sweden where Original is made.

The can that Gotlandssnus uses for Original is made of gray plastic with a plastic, snap-on lid which makes a great seal to keep it on when it’s in your pocket or bag! The label is a paper material and does not extend over the lid. It’s really not needed because the lid, when snapped down, is pretty secure but there is no used portion compartment on Gotland’s Original. Ok, enough about the can, let’s go on to the flavor.

Gotlandssnus Original’s flavor is actually pretty simple! By simple we mean only the great taste of well rounded tobacco, a lemon/grapefruit (bergamot) flavor with a touch of pepper and salt. Some people have noticed a slight herbal flavor but it’s actually the taste of the Alida tobacco coming thru! The portions flavor also lasts a good amount of time with the average being about 2 hours.

Even though we call it simple, it’s pretty unique in its own rite but we’ll let you decide! So why not put a can or two of Gotlandssnus Original portion snus in your next order and let us know what you taste? Be sure to leave a review once you taste it! We’ll be looking forward to reading what you think!

Not as big of a fan as this as the other Gotland brands, but still isn't bad, but pretty good. To me the taste was similar to orange juice, but not completely overpowering.

Really nice. All the Gotlands snus varieties are top of the line but the Gotlands Green is supreme.

This snus tastes like a spicy persimmon fruit. I have never tasted anything like this, except a persimmon. Thats all I can compare the flavor to. Very odd flavor, I used to eat persimmon fruit all the time as a kid. Really enjoy this snus, and I gave it five stars. Every portion is like memory lane. smile:) A+ for the Gotland Yellow. Wow, what a great snus. Do they cultivate persimmon fruit in Sweden? That seems unlikely given the climate, still just can't believe how much it tastes like a persimmon. lol

Probably will never buy this again. To me it has some wierd flavor that I just don't like. I think it's bergamot or maybe it's just soap, I really don't know. I still have most of the can and I'm not writing it completely off just yet, because every time I put another portion in it gets slightly more tolerable. Who knows I might even end up loving it by the end of the can. Not going to give it a star rating because it is getting better with each use.

Great stuff. Distinctive but not overwhelming taste. Definitely going to be a regular buy for me. Gotlandssnus has quickly become one of my favorite brands.

Such a wonderful snus. It is not to powerful but gives off a great lasting flavor. It is my number one, and I have tried them all. I also appreciate Gotlands in-house production. Very high quality.
