General Snus

General is today the world's best known and best-selling snus. The formula is still a secret and even though it has been refined and production methods have enhanced, the craftsmanship is essentially the same as it was over 100 years ago.

Achieving the exclusive characteristic flavor requires a special mix of 23 selected tobaccos from four different continents. Together they make a powerful yet balanced tobacco flavor. Slightly peppery with citrus notes and a hint of roses. A flavor that for many is identical with snus. And for even more the only conceivable option.

Most well-liked snus

General is today the world’s most well-liked snus. And the cause is simple. It’s a sophisticated mix of 23 different types of tobacco from the world’s best plantations. A formula created by Johan A Boman more than 150 years ago. A secret formula – topped off with a drop of bergamot oil. Ever since Swedish entrepreneur J A Boman first produced General in 1850, it has been manufactured in Gothenburg – a port city on the west coast of Sweden. Generalsnus has a distinctive flavor, with a long history and a limitless future.

Now in the first decade of the new millennium, the use of snus is reaching new levels. The global market is increasing year on year. Smoking is giving way to a more contemporary tobacco experience. Consumers are looking for a more sophisticated, discreet and private way to enjoy tobacco this without the harmful effects of smoking. General has gradually developed its range to satisfy future demand. No other brand currently gives consumers as many tailor-made varieties as Generalsnus. And what’s more, there are various innovations in the pipeline.

Generalsnus

Throughout its 150-year history, Generalsnus has always been contemporary. Even during the Swedish social experiment of the 1970s, important politicians involved themselves in snus-related issues. Legendary finance minister Gunnar Sträng averted a planned tax on luxury goods. Declaring “It’s my boys who take snus so you can go to hell,” Gunnar protected Swedish workers’ right to enjoy the world’s only untaxed tobacco product.

In 1977, a revolutionary invention appeared – portion snus. Overnight Generalsnus was able to reach a broader target crowd, one looking for a more sophisticated choice. And in 2003 it was time for one more innovation. General was launched using White Portion Technology, a snus that do not run-off in the same way as normal portion snus. The innovation was greeted with a smile. The exclusive Onyx was launched in 2005 with the graphite black portion pouches delightfully presented in a star formation. In 2010 General released a limited edition named General Bullet Proof. The can was made of an aluminum alloy, thick enough to stop a bullet. Today there are many people who get pleasure from the General snus, for example: Wintergreen, Extra Sterk, Silver, White and Mint.
