Siberia snus: strongest snus in the world?
Strength, when it comes to snus, is subjective. What is considered strong by one customer could be less so to another and it’s important to establish what the right level is for you. When we at Snusdirect talk about high strength, this is one of the brands that we always talk about, understandably so since it’s one of the strongest Swedish snus brands that we sell. In fact, it is often deemed as “the strongest snus in the world” by consumers and retailers alike. But, how strong is Siberia snus exactly?
The Red, Brown, and Black cans - 43 mg/g
The Blue cans - 24 mg/g
As seen above, there are two types of strengths on offer, however, moisture rate should be considered when looking at how powerful each portion will appear. For example, the Red cans are all of the dry variety which means they will have a slower onset of nicotine but a more long-lasting one. Whereas Brown cans, that has moist contents, are going to release nicotine immediately and more efficiently.
In short, this makes the brown snus cans stronger to use than the others. That all being said, flavor plays a role too in the famous power of a Siberia snus pouch which you can read more about below!
Siberia snus flavors - a blend of mint, menthol and tobacco
One of the features that is commonly overlooked is the characteristic flavor profile of this snus brand. As a traditional snus line, they all contain tobacco which provides the base flavor, consistency, and nicotine. Their signature addition is mint and menthol, which you will find is present in all of their products with exception to the dark tobacco flavored Siberia Black.
Mint, menthol, and tobacco is an age-old combination that is renowned for being a factor that increases nicotine strength. This effect is perfected as the mint is subtle and not overpowering, because real mint oils are used. However, it still provides that strength increasing, freezing sensation. Also, the tobacco is thermo treated and high-grade, adding depth and complexity to the profile, along with a rich background flavor.
The choice that is offered is also underestimated. For most, what springs to mind when the brand is mentioned is the classic red and white can of Siberia -80 White Dry. Whilst this has become somewhat of a household name amongst snusers, there are many other products available. For example, the Siberia -80 degrees slim white that provides an accessible route into the world of Siberia snus for those who do not want their strongest series. There is also a Siberia -80 White dry Mini which embodies all of the buzz and flavor of it in a much smaller portion size.
Is Siberia Dip?
The short answer is no, Siberia is not dip, but the confusion is understandable because snus and dip are both portioned into very similar cans and share some other similarities. Despite some of these similarities between snus and dip, such as the fact that both are smokeless and can be used where cigarettes can’t, the main thing that sets them apart is that dip requires you to spit and snus does not. The spitting is required because the accumulated saliva during dipping is not safe to swallow and can cause very intense vomiting. As such, if Siberia dip was a real product, you would need to spit and use it in your lower lip which would be the opposite of how Siberia snus is used!
The global appreciation of strength: why is Siberia snus popular?
This is without a doubt, a very popular brand as millions seek the chill of the Siberian winds on a regular basis. As mentioned earlier, the range has so much more to offer other than just being strong. But being strong is one of the main reasons why people choose it.
This brand’s high-strength products provide the user with an experience that is wholly different from regular strength. Not only in terms of nicotine, but also in stimulating all of the senses to a greater level. The aroma is sharper and more invigorating, rather than gentle and light. The flavor is pungent and robust, for a full-bodied taste that is incredibly satisfying. Also, the burning sensation is much greater, regardless of the inclusion of menthol. This is because it is nicotine itself that presents this effect, menthol just increases it!
High tolerance users often opt for this brand because little else will satisfy them. However, those who do not regularly use strong products also enjoy Siberia on occasion, for an extra buzz when required.
How to use Siberia pouches and when?
As a discreet product, you can use them at any time! However, there are certain moments in the day when some extra power works so great, which are:
- The Morning - There is nothing quite like the synergy of caffeine and nicotine. Try pairing your cup of joe with the earthy taste of Siberia Black White Dry for a kick like no other!
- After a Meal - The post meal snus is one that is cherished in the smokeless community. Why not take this to a whole new level with the rich tobacco and mint mix of Siberia Brown?
- Post Workout - It may seem counterproductive, but the truth is that many snusers keep fit and enjoy a buzz after a tough session to unwind. The 24 mg/g version works amazing for this, proving a relaxing flow of nicotine.
Whenever you’re in the mood, really - just open a can, place the Siberia snus under your lip and let it sit there until the flavor is gone - easy, practical, and satisfying. For customers who want the full experience but in a more discreet format, Siberia pouches (all white, tobacco free) have become a popular alternative that was released 2022.
Siberia snus production and quality standard
So, who is behind this brand? The answer is GN Tobacco, an ever-expanding company from Sweden. Their headquarters are in Enköping where they manufacture many types and flavors of snus, and other smokeless products like chewing tobacco. This is a large and trustworthy company for multiple reasons, which are:
- Many Years of Experience: The company was founded in 2004, so they have had ample time to refine, polish, and perfect their craft. This experience is reflected in their ability to make products of a high standard.
- Ultra-Modern Production Lines: GN Tobacco pride themselves on their ownership and use of state-of-the-art machines. They use automated processes and robotics for much of their snus production, which aids quality control and reduces human error.
- Swedish National Food Administration Compliant: From the portion material to the contents, all of the ingredients used are within the limits that the food administration set. By adhering to these limits, the company put consumer safety first.
Most manufacturers boast their quality control standards, achievements, and high-tech processes to gain consumer trust. However, GN Tobacco are rather modest when it comes to doing so, and let the product speak for itself.
