Wow. I loved this snus. Will certainly keep ordering this. A+ all the way. If you haven't tried, now is the time, its simply excellent.

I tried General Onyx Black before ever trying this. While I won't be ordering a ten-pack log of either anytime soon, I will say I enjoy this a bit better. Onyx is very good snus, but this one is less salty and I'm more of a fan of a subtle vanilla aftertaste than Onyx's lemon hints. I'll probably throw in a can or two of this in the future.

Grovsnus Svart is a pretty decent snus. I enjoyed the blend of flavors and it has attractive packaging. Here's my thoughts: Taste - The flavor comes on gradually with a bit of tobacco and aniseed. Then you start to taste a hint of vanilla and leather. The flavor is well balanced with nothing that sticks out more than the others. Nicotine - Here's another strong snus with the same characteristics as the others. The onset is gradual and increases over time with a slow tapering off after removal. Mouth Feel - The black portions are less irritating than onyx and feel comfortable with little burn. I did not notice a drip. The Verdict - Here's another snus I will order every now and then to keep when I want something different. I like the flavor, and it has a nice effect and nifty packaging. I rate it a 4 out of 5.

I bought a roll of this and I am very happy with my purchase. This has a pure tobacco taste with a very slight vanilla hint coursing through it. I smell anise in it but don't really taste it. Truly this has hit my top spot for snus. I also purched the General Onyx in this order but haven't gotten to it yet. We will see if it can beat the Grov Black.

This has turned into one of favorites. Nice long lasting taste with just a little bit more Nic hit, Definitely a different taste then General, but you can sure like both of them. I do pick up the slight anise but haven't tasted any vanilla yet as others have noticed. I probably burnt out my taste buds with cigars.

This snus is bad, real bad. Lots of people talk about the hint of anise and the vanilla, but the anise comes on stronger the longer you keep it in and becomes overpowering. Honestly, I couldn't keep it in my lip for more than about 15 minutes, and the taste lingers. Just...eww.

I like this one a lot. Not simply strong Grov. Similar in taste to General Onyx but with a less pronounced citrus element.

I bought a roll of this last time round in addition to my usual GROV white order. I really like the flavour of this new black portion and recommend it to anyone who likes a dry, crisp flavour with just a hint of aniseed. I shan't be abandoning GROV white, but I shall be adding this to my order again!

Having been a user of Grov Los for many years now I thought I would try the new Svart. I was expecting it to be almost exactly like Grov but just with a stronger kick. I was wrong. It is one of the best flavoured snus I have ever tried. It has a creamy taste and it did not raise the pulse as I expected it would. Grov Svart is to Grov what Vanilla Coke s to Coke! An improvement on perfection! I hope they make a los version soon.

This snus is fantastic. At first there is just a hint of anise that makes you do a double take to really see if its there. The vanilla flavor then comes in mixed with some tobacco flavor. Absolutely perfect blend of flavors. My taste buds are very excited to have this snus. Coupled with enough nicotine to get the job done right - this gets an A+. One of the best tasting snuses on the market. Well done!

I was impressed with this snus. The light vanilla flavor blended well with the tobacco.

GROV loose or portion I love, but I did not like the taste of this...normal GROV has a great pure tobacco taste, but this tastes different, slightly pickled flavor.

General Onyx is my favorite snus; however, the black portion Grovsnus is an adequate alternative, particularly with the lower price.
