Camel Snus is manufactured in Sweden under contract, by British American Tobacco PLC, which owns 42 percent of Reynolds.[1]
[edit] Description
Camel Snus, a smokeless spitless tobacco product, consists of 0.4 to 1.5 grams of pasteurized powdered tobacco portioned into small teabag-like pouches. To use Snus, place the pouch between the cheek and the upper lip where the oral cavity absorbs the nicotine.
On April 28, 2006 RJ Reynolds released Camel Snus in Portland Oregon and Austin Texas; the smokeless tobacco product expanded further in eight states, and in May 2008 RJ Reynolds and Camel Snus dove into the major markets of Los Angeles; Chicago; New York; Atlanta; Washington, D.C. Camel Snus used print media to advertise until February 2008, when they decide that print media was not a viable marketing source. Camels Snus offers the spitless pouch in three flavors: original, frost, and spice. Even though Snus is associated with a lower risk of lung cancer; studies show an increase in pancreatic cancer and heart disease with the use all of snus/snuff products.
