In the long, long ago, there was an American e-juice producer called Johnson Creek. When they first started out (long before the days of sub-ohm coils), almost all of their juices looked and tasted like they were based in vanilla extract. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was the instant flashback I had with this. The vanilla is VERY forward, and initially overpowers everything else about this portion. A few minutes in, the vanilla calms down a bit and becomes more like vanilla ice cream. The bourbon is present, but not like the tobacco was soaked in Knob Creek for a while. It’s more of a candy bourbon that becomes very pleasant as it all melds together with notes of caramel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And… what’s that? Oooh. A buzz like my first cigarette of the day, but in the early evening! Gentle, but potent. I didn’t realize that this was a strong portion when I bought it. Just a tiny bit more drip than I’d usually like in a white portion, but the steady flavor makes it welcome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The portion size and material is just about perfection, too. Juuuuuust right. I’ve mentioned it on the “About Me<\/a>” page, and want to reiterate that I have no intentions at all of competing with Snubie. That’s not what this site’s about, and if you haven’t, you should definitely visit snubie.com<\/a>. But this is just further proof that he’s the authority on snus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whiplash.<\/strong> The first minute, all I could think of was how I was going to give away the three other cans I have. Now I’m kicking around getting a roll or two of this limited edition to keep in my freezer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with many of the sweeter snuses, this comes with sweetener, though Ministry of Snus opted to go with stevia. I don’t mind saying here that I appreciate the use of a natural sweetener — and in keeping with the “snus doesn’t wreck your teeth” evidence, stevia doesn’t cause cavities<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unless you’re unable to handle a strong portion (and make no mistake, it is<\/em> rather strong!), you need to pick this up while you can. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
