A recipe created by Johan A Boman more than 150 years ago. A secret recipe – topped off with a drop of bergamot oil. Ever since Swedish entrepreneur J A Boman first created General in 1850, it has been produced in Gothenburg – a port city on the west coast of Sweden. In this, the first decade of the new millennium, the use of snus is reaching new levels. Throughout its 150-year history, General has always been contemporary. General is today the world's best known and best-selling snus. It is no coincidence that Swedish snus from Swedish Match is the best in the world.
