As an American, I couldn’t help but wonder what Swedish people would make something called Americana taste like. I wasn’t really looking for something extra strong, but my curiosity demanded that I buy this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Pepper. That’s what Americans starts out like. Let me take a step back here: When you open the can, it smells pretty awful. Indescribable. But as soon as it goes in, it’s like a flashback to kissing a girl I knew who was all but addicted to Dr. Pepper Lip Smackers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a couple of really unexpected things I noticed in Americana. First, for an original \/ non-white portion, the drip isn’t very heavy. And second: the flavor evolves<\/em> as time goes on. So you get that initial Dr. Pepper wave, but after a while, it gently transforms into an amaretto flavor, kind of like Disaronno. Not what I’d call particularly American, but awfully good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I’ve mentioned with other types of snus, Swedish Match lists this as having acesulfame K sweetener. This is definitely sweet, and if you’re sensitive to artificial sweetener, you may want to skip this one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an extra strong portion, it doesn’t blast you off to Mars with nicotine, but has a definite punch that you won’t find in a two-dot portion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I couldn’t do Americana as an all-day \/ everyday snus. Honestly, I think it would give me a headache if I enjoyed it more than once or twice a day. But it’s one of the few I’ve tried that left me with a craving for more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
