What is CAMEL SNUS?
Camel SNUS is a modern twist on traditional oral tobacco, offering a smoke-free, spit-free, pouched tobacco. Introduced in 2006, Camel SNUS originated from the authentic Swedish snus, which started as a luxury by Europe’s aristocrats in the 1600 – 1700’s. In the 1800’s Swedish farmers, began tucking pinches of tobacco in their upper lips while they continued to hoe their crops, and a new era of snus began. Building on this popularity, an inventive Swede named Jacob Fredrik Ljunglof began manufacturing snus using a simple recipe of tobacco, salt and water. Snus quickly became the tobacco product of choice for Swedes of every rank and class.
Camel SNUS is pasteurized rather then fermented so there is less salt in the blend, which means less moisture. Less moisture means that spitting isn’t necessary. So, how do you use Camel SNUS? Well, it goes something like this:
- Pop open the tin
- Slide a pouch under your upper lip
- Taste the richness of Camel SNUS

K&B Cigars of Huntington Beach California distributes popular American-made cigars for Circle K outlets in the western United States. Products from industry-dominant players like Swisher International, Republic Tobacco, Swedish Match, Altadis Inc., and John Middleton are available to consumers in every Circle K and monitored by K&B field representatives to guarantee quality and freshness.
Cigar-making technology has evolved since the late fifteenth-century when Columbus’ explorers first noted Taino Indians smoking coarse long-hand-rolled leaves of tobacco that became the ancestor of what we now know call the “cigar.” Planters up and down the eastern seaboard eventually capitalized on tobacco and turned it into the billion-dollar industry it is today. In short, tobacco is to the Americas as cinnamon or pepper is to the spice islands of Indonesia. That is to say, tobacco is here for people to enjoy, despite its potential for abuse, no different from sweets or alcohol.
While the domestication of tobacco in its various varieties has spread across the globe, the United States gradually developed a unique dominance in varietal markets.
Over time, purveyors of tobacco products have changed its presentation to meet the tastes of consumers. K&B Cigars of Huntington Beach, California has catered to this demand since 1995. The dominant players in the U.S. domestic market today remain Swisher International, Republic Tobacco, Altadis, Inc., Swedish Match, and Middleton Tobacco, which are also world-wide competitors. Consumers’ tastes in cigars now range from the simpler ‘pure’ tobaccos to various flavored products which add to smoking pleasure. Consumers enjoy sweeter flavored tobaccos which range from apple to wine. This would surely have baffled the earliest tribesman a millennium ago. How can one explain this? The answer lies deep, much as the current taste for books on tape, or sending a friend a text-message rather than a letter via snail mail.
Circle K stores across the state are loyal to their consumers, and provide them with the latest products, according to taste. They provide quality products at affordable prices, and remain at the forefront because they appeal to the American way.
