Skruf Super White #3 (Red Rhuby)

The descriptions of Super White #3 are universal: it tastes like rhubarb. And as much as I like to be a contrarian, that’s what it tastes like. It doesn’t have quite the sour tang that you’d get from rhubarb pie, but isn’t so sweet that it tastes like a tobacco-free nicotine pouch. That’s especially interesting, because it is a tobacco-free nicotine pouch.

Freshly opened, this was probably one of the driest portions I’ve ever felt. And as much as I like the slim portions, the dryness means that only 1/2 to 2/3 of the pouch has content. I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that I hate the feel of empty “tails”, so these portions need quite a bit of fluffing.

Once fluffed, they’re a wonderful departure from “regular” flavors. There the initial salty bite that I’ve come to expect from Skruf, but it dissipates quickly into rhubarb and very mild smoke flavoring. I don’t think I’d want this all day, every day. But it’s definitely something I’d keep in my rotation.
