Loose

Loose snus, with its characteristic look, consistency, smell and taste, is the traditional snus.

With loose snus, you decide for yourself how much snus each pinch – or “prilla” in Swedish – will contain. This gives you a freedom of choice much appreciated by many Swedes. Loose snus also carries a stronger taste of tobacco. It’s available in several granularities.

Examples of fine-grained snus include Göteborgs Rapé and Göteborgs Prima Fint.

Snus sorts with medium-size grains include brands such as Kronan and Probe.

Very coarsely grounded snus types, such as General and Grovsnus, are also available.

Loose Swedish snus is applied by forming the snus to a desired shape and size, either with your fingers or with a so-called Prismaster.
