Manufactured by JTI Sweden AB, LD Black portion snus has some unique qualities shared only by a few other portion snus brands. LD Black’s portion material is black in color. While this is unique in the world of snus, it’s becoming more and more common. The thing that makes LD Black really unique is the fact that the portions are classed as regular type portions. The other black portion brands are classed as White type portions making LD Black the unique black portion! As you all remember, regular type portions go thru an additional step before being placed in the can that adds a bit more moisture to each one that helps the flavors marry better and release their flavor faster in the lip. The black material that JTI uses in LD Black is the same teabag type material that’s used in their other portions just black in color instead of white. The portions stay comfortable in the lip for over 2 hours and don’t worry, LD Black won’t turn your teeth black!
Each can of LD Black contains 24, one gram portions with each having 8 mg of Nicotine. LD Black’s can is made of black plastic and does have a used portion compartment in the lid. This compartment has a unique hinged lid that makes the compartment convenient to use but, enough about the can, let’s look at the flavor!
JTI describes LD Black’s flavor as being of sweet licorice and they are correct! LD Black does taste of a sweet licorice but the flavor we think it comes pretty close to is a liquor called Jagermeister! The same type of bold licorice/anise flavor that Jagermeister is known for is in LD Black without the alcohol. There is even a slight burn when it’s in the lip that is reminiscent of the burn in the throat one gets when drinking Jagermeister. We think snus users looking for a snus that has a flavor that’s outside the norm will like LD Black but, we’ll let you decide.
So, why not add a can of LD Black portion snus to your next order and let us know what you taste. Be sure to leave a review of your own, we’ll be looking forward to reading it!

This is a favorite of mine. It used to be available in mini portion, which I prefer for at work, but his will do fine until they bring back the mini.

Hands down my favorite Snus...flavor lasts forever, and even if you don't like those disgusting sticks of black licorice, I can almost guarantee you will love this snus.

I'm surprised at how much I like it. Like the other posters have stated, it's mot like American Licorice. Strong but not overpowering. I generally do not like licorice flavor but this may become a regular order.

Perfect after dinner snus. It has just the right amount of saltiness and and a touch of sweetness that balances the fairly strong licorice flavor. The Scandinavians got it right with salmiak, American black licorice is just too sweet to do the root justice. For how cheap these are, the portion material used is top notch, not a hint of irritation, and the can is pretty cool too.

As a newbie, I'm still leaning towards the more flavored snuses like this one. This is great! Not like American Licorice; a bit salty, but combines well with a Lakerol pastille like the ones sold on this site.

I have tried almost all snus available from the Northerner. With that being said, this is the most flavorful snus there is. The price is also great. I wish it had slightly more nicotine, but the flavor is very good, and I would highly recomend this to the new snus user.

This is among the most delicious snus there is. Slightly sweet and salty, the liquorice flavor is pronounced after about 10 minutes. Also, the portion material is soft and moist, allowing for almost instantaneous absorption with no discomfort to the gums.
