Speaking Our Mind

Made in Malmö, Sweden by Fielder & Lundgren, Granit portion is classified as a regular type portion snus meaning that each portion goes thru an additional stem in the manufacturing process that adds a bit more moisture to each one. This additional moisture aids in allowing the flavors in the snus marry together and release it faster in the lip. The material that Fielder & Lundgren uses for Granit’s portions is a soft, teabag type material that is pretty comfortable in the lip for about an hour and a half. Each can of Granit portion contains 24, one gram portions with each having 8 mg of Nicotine. Granit’s can is made of black plastic with the top and bottom edges curved to give the can a better feel in your hand and easier to get it in and out of your pocket but, unfortunately, Granit does not have a used portion compartment in its can but, you’re here for the flavors, not the can so, let’s take a look!

Fielder & Lundgren describes Granit’s flavor as being of pure tobacco. While we agree that the tobacco is the predominant flavor, we taste a few other subtle elements that give Granit is unique flavor. The tobacco actually has a light black pepper taste while having a subtle sweetness in the background. This sweetness shows up as a sweet, herbal flavor, albeit a very light one. The salt in Granit also helps to bring out both the herbal sweetness and the earthy tobacco flavor while adding the traditional Swedish snus taste. While this is what we taste in Granit portion snus, we would like to know what you think!

So, give a can of Granit portion snus a try with your next order and let us know your take by leaving a review of your own. We’ll be waiting to read what you taste!

This was an okay snus. Cirtusy like General but without the peppery taste. Nothing that is fantastic but not the worst I have ever had.

This is the only discount snus that besides Knox that is really good. It has a flavor profile very similar to General in a nice moist, original pouch. I really enjoy it and recommend it to anybody on a tight budgetbudget.

granit is the budget snus on the market today but dont let that put you off. its flavour is clean and fresh and quite distinct in its taste and some may say it's very similar to general portion and like general it has a lasting flavour too. for some of the newer snus users who lean towards the sweeter more subtle flavoured snus the taste can be abit on the strong side but anyone who likes a general portion or the stronger sterks will find a granit portion a real winner i use it as a padding out snus for those times when i want a break from the heavier sterks but dont want to lose out on taste or nicotine and a good tip for EU snusers because of the great price you can mix it's use with the more expensive portions it can really reduce your daily snus spend

All Granit types are great, the loose is perhaps my fave format for Granit. It is so much cheaper, but is is far superior to Knox. If you like the citrus of General, you'll like this.
