The General Original is one of the most revered snus across the globe. It contains a blend of 22 types of tobacco, some hints of citrus, and a slightly peppery finish, with a nicotine content of 8.5mg/portion that provides a moderate feeling of intensity.
The General Original has been pleasing fans since 1866 with its classic flavor profile that reminds users of traditional Swedish heritage and culture. It has a blend of slightly spicy tobacco, bergamot, and undertones of tea, leather, and hay, with a bit of a peppery finish. It has a nicotine strength of 8.5mg/pouch, so it is an intermediate product, which will give a moderate sensation for most users.
However, the intensity is multiplied by the moist nature of original sachets. The extra liquid brings the onset of flavor, tobacco, and nicotine much quicker than drier portions, meaning that users do not have to wait long to discover the unique and classic flavor of this snus. A regular pouch also has a greater amount of content, so the size and format of this product are usually better suited to those with some experience in dealing with snus.
The tobacco used in Swedish Match’s iconic General brand is specifically selected depending on aroma and taste, as well as chemical composition. Extensive research goes into how certain countries cultivate tobacco, with climate, locations, and seed types among the important parameters taken into account. There can be as many as 30 different types of tobacco blends in each product, which goes through comprehensive grinding, preparation, and packaging processes.
