Skruf Cranberry Portion Snus

Our Skruf Cranberry, Portion Review

Skruf Tranbär (cranberry) portion snus is a regular type portion snus made by the folks at Skruf AB. It’s classed as a regular portion because it goes thru an extra step, prior to being put in the can, which adds a bit more moisture to the portion to help bring out the flavor, faster. Each can of Skruf Tranbär has 24, 1 gram portions with 9 mg of Nicotine each. As in all Skruf snus, only the top and mid leafs of the tobacco are used which allow their snus to be naturally higher in Nicotine than its competitors. The portion material Skruf uses in Tranbär is the same basic material that’s typically used in portion snus and is pretty comfortable in the lip, even after 2 hours! Skruf Tranbär’s all white can and plastic label, that makes a great seal between the lid and the bottom, does have the used portion compartment in the lid with the “Skruf” name embossed on the cap. So, how does it taste, you may ask? That may surprise you! Skruf Tranbär (cranberry) has a complex flavor that differs from its scent. While the main flavor of Skruf Tranbär is very close to a lightly sweetened cranberry juice, its scent in the can is of a cranberry-banana type mix with little to no ammonia smell that’s typical with Swedish snus. Other flavors in Tranbär include a light tobacco, slight peppery background and a hint of banana. These flavors, along with the cranberry, make Skruf Tranbär a great tasting snus that’s as close to what Americans think cranberry snus should taste like! While the portion does stay comfortable in the lip for over 2 hours, we recommended a 1 ½ hour max due to the portion’s taste can go a bit bitter after that. We recommend trying a can and letting us know what you think by writing a review of your own! We look forward to reading your thoughts!
