Hayati Nicotine Pouches
Hayati Nicotine Pouches are the one range in our catalogue that has nothing to do with a device. There are 11 flavours, each a tobacco-free oral pouch at 12mg per pouch, priced at £4.49 a can. No battery, no charging, no liquid, no vapour and nothing to refill: a pouch goes under your upper lip and stays there.
This page explains what the format actually is, how it differs from both vaping and traditional oral tobacco, how strength is measured when there is no millilitre to measure it against, how to use a pouch properly the first time, and what each of the 11 flavours is. Hayati Flavours is an independent UK retailer of Hayati products. Every nicotine product we sell is for adults aged 18 and over.
The range in numbers
This is a small, consistent collection, which makes it easy to navigate. Every listing shares the same specification and the only variable is flavour.
- 11 flavours: Frosted Mint, Ice Cold, Grape Ice, Mango Ice, Banana Ice, Blueberry, Ruby Berry, Strawberry Lychee, Bubblegum, Cola and Coffee.
- 12mg of nicotine per pouch across the whole range.
- £4.49 per can, the same price for every flavour.
- Tobacco-free white pouch format.
There are no strength options to choose between here, which removes the most common source of confusion when buying pouches. Pick a flavour, and the 12mg figure is the same whichever you pick. Check the can when it arrives for the number of pouches it contains; cans in this category commonly hold around twenty, which would put a 12mg pouch at roughly 22p each.
What a nicotine pouch actually is
The format
A nicotine pouch is a small, soft sachet designed to be placed between the upper lip and the gum. It is sealed, it is not chewed, and it is not swallowed. It sits in place while the nicotine and flavourings are released, and after twenty to forty minutes it is removed and thrown away.
The pouches are what the category calls white pouches: pale, dry to slightly moist, and made to be discreet in the mouth. They typically contain plant-based fibres as a carrier, nicotine, flavourings, sweeteners and pH regulators. There is no combustion, no heating element and no vapour of any kind. From the outside, nobody can tell you are using one.
What happens when you use one
Saliva contact begins releasing the contents of the pouch almost immediately. Most people notice a tingling or slight warmth under the lip within the first minute, along with the flavour. The tingle is normal for the format and typically settles after a few minutes as the initial release slows. Flavour is strongest in the first ten minutes or so and fades gradually from there, which is a reasonable signal that the pouch is spent.
Tobacco-free, and what that means
The distinction people most often ask about is between nicotine pouches and traditional snus. Snus contains ground tobacco leaf. A nicotine pouch does not: the nicotine is used without the tobacco plant material that gives snus its brown colour and its characteristic taste. That is a factual difference in contents, not a claim about anything else, and it is why the category is described as tobacco-free.
Practically, the absence of tobacco leaf is why these pouches are white rather than brown, why they do not stain in the way snus can, and why the flavour range can run to things like Bubblegum and Strawberry Lychee that would sit oddly on a tobacco base.
How strength works when there is no millilitre
Per pouch, not per millilitre
E-liquid strength is quoted in milligrams per millilitre, because a liquid is measured by volume. A pouch is a discrete object, so its strength is quoted as milligrams per pouch. Twelve milligrams per pouch means each individual pouch contains 12mg of nicotine.
These two figures are not comparable directly, and trying to convert between them is a mistake. A 10ml bottle of 10mg e-liquid contains 100mg of nicotine in total, but you consume it over days through a device that vaporises a fraction of a millilitre per draw. A 12mg pouch contains 12mg, held in the mouth for half an hour, of which only part is absorbed. The delivery mechanisms are entirely different and the numbers simply do not map onto one another.
Where 12mg sits in the category
Nicotine pouches on the market span a wide band, from low single figures at the mild end to well above 20mg at the strongest. Twelve milligrams sits in the upper-middle of that range: substantial rather than gentle, and not the place most people would choose to start if they had never used an oral nicotine product before.
| Band | Typical description | This range |
|---|---|---|
| Under 6mg per pouch | Mild end of the category | Not stocked |
| 6 to 10mg per pouch | Middle of the category | Not stocked |
| 11 to 15mg per pouch | Upper-middle | All 11 Hayati flavours, at 12mg |
| 16mg and above | Strongest end | Not stocked |
If 12mg feels like a lot
Two adjustments are available without changing product. Reduce the time the pouch stays in - ten or fifteen minutes rather than a full forty - and remove it as soon as you have had enough. And leave longer gaps between pouches. Both are entirely ordinary ways to use the format. Removing a pouch early is not wasting it; it is using it at the level that suits you.
Using a pouch properly
The method
- Open the can and take a single pouch. Do not use more than one at a time.
- Place it between your upper lip and your gum, off to one side rather than dead centre at the front.
- Press it gently into place with your tongue or a finger. It should sit flat and out of the way.
- Leave it. Do not chew it, do not move it around constantly, and do not swallow it.
- Remove it after twenty to forty minutes, or sooner if you have had enough.
- Put the used pouch in the catch lid if your can has one, then in a bin.
First time
Give yourself a short session rather than a full one. Ten minutes is plenty to find out how the tingle, the flavour and the placement feel. You can always put a fresh pouch in later; you cannot undo forty minutes of something you were not enjoying.
Extra saliva in the first few minutes is normal and expected for the format. Swallow it as you normally would, or spit if you prefer, but do not feel obliged to do either. Some people find rotating the pouch to the other side of the lip after fifteen minutes more comfortable than leaving it in one spot.
Eating, drinking and talking
You can talk normally with a pouch in place; that is most of the point of the format. Drinking is fine, though hot drinks will accelerate the release and shorten the useful life of the pouch. Eating with a pouch in is awkward and not recommended - take it out, and use a fresh one afterwards if you want.
How many in a day
That is a personal matter and we are not going to prescribe a number. What is worth saying is that the format makes it easy to lose track, because there is no device to pick up and no visible cue. Being deliberate about it - one pouch, a set duration, a gap afterwards - keeps you in control of your own usage rather than drifting.
The eleven flavours
All 11 are 12mg and £4.49. The range splits cleanly into cooled profiles, fruit profiles and a small group of drink and confectionery flavours.
| Flavour | Family | Character |
|---|---|---|
| Frosted Mint | Mint | Clean mint with a cold finish; the category standard |
| Ice Cold | Cooling | Cooling without a fruit or mint profile behind it |
| Grape Ice | Fruit ice | Sweet dark grape with cooling |
| Mango Ice | Tropical ice | Ripe mango, cooled |
| Banana Ice | Fruit ice | Creamy banana with a cold edge |
| Blueberry | Berry | Straight blueberry, no cooling |
| Ruby Berry | Berry | Mixed red berry blend |
| Strawberry Lychee | Fruit | Strawberry with the floral sweetness of lychee |
| Bubblegum | Sweets | Classic confectionery bubblegum |
| Cola | Soft drink | Cola with a faint acidity |
| Coffee | Drink | Roasted coffee; the least sweet in the range |
The cooled group
Frosted Mint, Ice Cold, Grape Ice, Mango Ice and Banana Ice make up nearly half the range. Cooling works particularly well in an oral format, because the sensation is delivered directly to the gum and lip rather than through vapour, and it tends to last longer through the pouch than the fruit notes do. Frosted Mint is the obvious starting point if you have never used a pouch before; Ice Cold strips out even the mint and leaves the cooling on its own. These sit alongside the wider Ice and Mint collections across the catalogue.
The fruit group
Blueberry and Ruby Berry cover the berry end without cooling, which makes them the mildest-feeling pouches in the range even though the nicotine figure is identical. Strawberry Lychee is the most distinctive thing here: lychee brings a floral, slightly perfumed sweetness that nothing else in the range does. Grape Ice and Mango Ice bridge into the cooled group. Related collections: Berry Vapes, Blueberry Vapes, Strawberry Vapes, Mango Vapes and Grape Vapes.
The drink and confectionery group
Cola, Coffee and Bubblegum are the outliers and the most interesting part of the range. Coffee is genuinely unusual in a pouch and is the only flavour here that is not sweet-led; it suits people who find fruit profiles cloying over a long session. Cola carries a faint acidity that reads as fizz. Bubblegum is straightforwardly confectionery. See also Cola Vapes and Sweet Vapes.
Flavour by flavour
Frosted Mint is the reference point for the whole category: clean mint with a cold finish that holds steady across a full session. If you only ever buy one can, buy this one first so that everything else has something to be measured against.
Ice Cold strips out the mint and leaves the cooling on its own. It is the most neutral thing in the range and the one that interferes least with food, drink or anything else you happen to be tasting.
Grape Ice pairs dark, sweet grape with cooling. Grape holds its shape under cold better than most fruits do, which makes this one of the longer-lasting profiles here.
Mango Ice is ripe and full rather than sharp, with the cooling arriving behind the fruit rather than on top of it. It is the sweeter of the two tropical-leaning options.
Banana Ice is the most unusual of the cooled group: creamy rather than juicy, which is a texture fruit pouches do not usually offer. It also exists as a 10ml salt and in both shortfill ranges, so it is easy to compare across formats.
Blueberry has no cooling at all, which makes it one of the two mildest-feeling pouches in the range despite the identical nicotine figure. Straightforward and easy to sit with for a long stretch.
Ruby Berry is a mixed red berry blend rather than a single fruit, rounder and slightly jammier than Blueberry, and the better choice if you find single-fruit profiles thin.
Strawberry Lychee is the standout. Lychee brings a floral, faintly perfumed sweetness that sits behind the strawberry and keeps it from being ordinary. Nothing else in the catalogue does this.
Bubblegum is exactly what it says: classic confectionery, sweet and immediately recognisable. It is the most nostalgic profile here and the one that divides opinion most sharply.
Cola carries a faint acidity that reads as fizz on the tongue, which stops it from sitting flat the way sweet profiles sometimes do over half an hour.
Coffee is the only flavour in the range that is not sweet-led. Roasted and slightly bitter, it is the obvious pick for anyone who finds fruit and candy profiles tiring, and it is genuinely uncommon in this category.
Three to start with
If you want a spread rather than three variations: Frosted Mint as the benchmark, Strawberry Lychee for something completely different, and Coffee for the non-sweet end. That is three cans for £13.47 and covers the whole character of the range.
How a pouch feels, and choosing a flavour to match
Texture, moisture and what a pouch feels like
Dry, moist and everything between. Pouches across the category vary in how much moisture they carry, and it changes the experience more than most people expect. A drier pouch releases its contents more gradually, feels less noticeable under the lip and tends to last longer before the flavour fades. A moister pouch starts faster and more intensely and is usually more comfortable immediately on placement, at the cost of a shorter useful life.
White pouches of the kind in this range sit toward the drier end of the spectrum by design, which is part of why they are described as discreet. If a pouch feels scratchy when you first place it, that is usually moisture - either the can has dried out in storage, or the pouch simply needs a minute of saliva contact to soften.
Size and shape. Pouch size is described as slim or regular in most of the category. A slim pouch is narrower and longer, which makes it easier to tuck flat along the gum line and harder for anyone to notice. A regular pouch is wider and more obvious in the mouth. Neither shape changes the nicotine figure printed on the can; it is purely about fit and comfort, and which suits you is a matter of your own mouth rather than anything else.
Why the cooling feels different to a cooled e-liquid. Cooling compounds in a vape are carried in vapour and felt in the throat and airway. In a pouch, the same class of compounds is delivered directly to the gum and inner lip, which is a far more localised sensation and one that persists steadily rather than arriving in pulses with each draw. That is why Frosted Mint or Ice Cold reads as considerably colder than a cooled e-liquid at similar intensity, and why the cooling in a pouch usually outlasts the fruit notes around it.
Choosing a flavour by when you will use it
Eleven flavours is enough to be worth organising by occasion rather than picking at random.
Early in the day
Cooled and mint profiles tend to suit mornings, partly because they are clean and partly because they do not compete with coffee or breakfast. Frosted Mint and Ice Cold are the obvious choices, and Coffee is the deliberate alternative if you would rather lean into it than avoid it.
Long stretches of work
This is where a pouch is most practical, because it needs no hands and produces nothing anyone can see. Flavours that do not tire quickly work best here: Blueberry and Ruby Berry are straightforward and do not shout, and Grape Ice holds up over a long session because the cooling carries it once the fruit softens.
After a meal
Stronger, sweeter profiles read better once your palate has already been busy. Bubblegum, Cola and Mango Ice all register clearly after food, where a subtle berry profile might not.
When you want something different
Strawberry Lychee is the flavour in this range with no equivalent elsewhere in the catalogue. Lychee is floral and slightly perfumed in a way that nothing else here is, and it is the one most worth trying purely because it is unlike the rest.
The rotation argument
Palate fatigue applies to pouches as much as to liquid. Using one flavour exclusively for weeks dulls it. Keeping three open cans across different families - one cooled, one fruit, one drink or confectionery - means none of them goes stale, and it costs £13.47 rather than £4.49 to set up.
Travelling with pouches, and comfort over a session
The format travels better than anything else in the catalogue, which is a large part of its appeal.
- No liquid restrictions. The 100ml hand-luggage rule applies to liquids and gels. A can of pouches is neither, so it is not affected.
- No battery rules. Lithium cells must travel in the cabin and not in the hold, which constrains every device in the catalogue. A can has no battery at all.
- Nothing leaks at altitude. Cabin pressure changes push liquid out of full pods and tanks. Pouches are unaffected.
- Nothing to charge. No adaptor, no cable, no hunting for a socket.
The caveat is legal rather than practical. Nicotine laws vary widely between countries, and some restrict or prohibit oral nicotine products specifically, separately from how they treat vaping. Check the rules for your destination and for any country you transit through before you travel, rather than at the airport. Within the UK, these are ordinary age-restricted products.
Comfort and placement over a long session
A few habits make the format easier to live with, and none of them are complicated.
- Alternate sides. If you use several pouches in a day, move between the left and right of the upper lip rather than always using the same spot.
- Do not force a long session. The flavour tells you when a pouch is done. Leaving a spent one in achieves nothing.
- Keep water to hand. Most people find a drink alongside a pouch more comfortable than one without.
- Take a break if something feels off. Remove the pouch. It is a thirty-second decision and there is never a reason to persist with one that is uncomfortable.
- Do not sleep with one in. A pouch should be removed before you go to bed, not left in overnight.
Nicotine is an addictive substance, and we are a retailer rather than a medical service. If you have questions about your own nicotine use, a pharmacist or your GP is the right place to ask.
Pouches and vaping compared
These are different products that happen to share an active ingredient. Comparing them honestly means comparing the practical experience, not making claims about either.
| Nicotine pouch | Vaping device | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware | None | Battery, coil or pod |
| Charging | None | Regular |
| Vapour | None | Yes, visible |
| Smell | None noticeable to others | Yes, flavour-dependent |
| Hands | Free once placed | Needed for each draw |
| Strength measure | mg per pouch | mg per millilitre |
| Session length | 20 to 40 minutes, fixed | Entirely up to you |
| Running cost | £4.49 a can | Liquid plus coils or pods |
| Waste | Used pouch and can | Bottles, pods, coils, batteries |
| Consumables to manage | None | Coils, pods, chargers |
Plenty of customers here use both, and the reasons are practical rather than ideological. A pouch does not need a free hand, does not need charging, and produces nothing that anyone around you can see or smell. A device gives you far more control over how much and how often. Neither replaces the other.
Where a pouch is the more practical object
- Long journeys. No device to charge, nothing to leak at altitude, and liquid restrictions in hand luggage do not apply to a can of pouches.
- Working with your hands. Once a pouch is placed, it needs no further attention.
- Indoor spaces where vaping is not permitted. Rules vary by venue and employer, and a pouch produces nothing visible - but the rules are still the venue's to set, so check rather than assume.
- Cold weather. Batteries perform poorly in the cold and a device in an outside pocket is an inconvenience. A can is not.
The converse is also true. A pouch commits you to a fixed session at a fixed strength, where a device lets you take two draws and put it down. If that flexibility matters to you, the bottled nic salts or the prefilled pod kits are the better fit.
The can: storage, used pouches and disposal
Can design
Most nicotine pouch cans are made in two parts: the main compartment holding the fresh pouches and a shallow catch lid in the top designed to hold used ones until you reach a bin. Check the can you receive - if it has a catch compartment, use it. It exists precisely so that a used pouch does not end up somewhere it should not.
The lid seals to keep the pouches from drying out. Close it properly every time rather than leaving it ajar in a pocket, and keep the can upright so that any moisture stays distributed.
Disposal
- Never flush a used pouch. It will not break down and it contributes to blockages. This is the single most important thing on this page.
- Never drop one on the ground. A used pouch is litter and, unlike a cigarette end, it is conspicuous.
- Use the catch lid, then empty it into a general waste bin.
- Do not leave used pouches where children or animals can reach them. A used pouch still contains residual nicotine.
- Empty cans are usually plastic and may be recyclable depending on your local authority. Rinse and check your council's guidance.
Etiquette
The format is discreet, which is its main appeal, and the etiquette follows from that. Do not make a production of placing one. Do not leave used pouches on tables, in plant pots, in car door pockets or in a glass. If you are somewhere where you would not drop litter, do not leave a pouch either. Carry the can, use the lid, and the whole thing stays invisible, which is what you bought it for.
Storage
- Cool and dry. Room temperature is fine; a hot car is not. Heat dries pouches out and dulls the flavour.
- Sealed. Close the lid fully after each use. An open can dries out surprisingly quickly.
- Upright. Keeps any moisture evenly distributed through the pouches rather than pooling at one side.
- Out of reach of children and pets, always. Pouches look like sweets, they smell sweet, and they contain a meaningful amount of nicotine. Store them somewhere a child cannot get to, not in a bag left on the floor or a bedside drawer.
- Some people refrigerate them. It is not necessary, but it keeps pouches moist and some prefer the sensation of a cold pouch. Do not freeze them.
- Check the date on the can and use older cans first if you keep several flavours.
A can that has dried out is not dangerous, but it will feel scratchy under the lip and the flavour will be flat. That is almost always a storage problem rather than a product one.
Common mistakes and misconceptions
Starting with a full-length session
Forty minutes on your first pouch is too much to ask. Start at ten, see how it feels, and build from there.
Chewing it
A pouch is not gum. Chewing splits the material and releases the contents too quickly, which is unpleasant and makes a mess in the mouth. Place it and leave it.
Using two at once
One pouch at a time. Doubling up doubles the nicotine, which is not a good way to work out what suits you.
Putting it in the wrong place
Under the upper lip, off to one side. Under the lower lip works for some people but tends to collect more saliva. Dead centre at the front is visible and uncomfortable.
Leaving it in far too long
Once the flavour has gone, the pouch has given you most of what it is going to. Leaving a spent pouch in for hours achieves nothing except gum irritation.
Treating pouch mg and e-liquid mg as the same number
They measure different things. Twelve milligrams per pouch and 12mg per millilitre of liquid have no useful relationship to one another.
Four things people get wrong about the category
"Nicotine pouches are just snus"
They are not. Snus contains ground tobacco leaf; these pouches do not. That is a difference in what is inside the sachet, and it is why these are white rather than brown and why the flavour range can go places a tobacco base could not.
"They are chewing tobacco"
Also no, on both counts. There is no tobacco, and they are not chewed. A pouch sits still under the lip and is removed intact.
"A stronger pouch is a better pouch"
Strength is a matter of what suits you, not a quality ranking. Every pouch in this range is 12mg, and the way to make a session lighter is to shorten it, not to look for a different number.
"You swallow the pouch when you are done"
Never. The pouch is removed whole and binned. Nothing about the format involves swallowing it.
How pouches sit alongside the rest of the Hayati catalogue
Most of what we stock is vaping hardware and liquid, and the pouches sit deliberately apart from it. There is no crossover in equipment: nothing here needs a battery, a coil or a bottle. What does cross over is flavour.
Several pouch flavours have counterparts on the vaping side. Banana Ice, Blueberry and Cola all exist as 10ml bottles in Pro Max Nic Salts, and Banana Ice also appears in both the 50/50 and 70/30 shortfill ranges. Mango and grape profiles run through the prefilled pod ranges as well. If you have a flavour you already like from a device, there is a reasonable chance something adjacent exists in a pouch.
On the hardware side, the rest of the catalogue covers Pro Max Plus kits at £7.99 with a 12ml prefilled pod, Pro Ultra Plus at £11.99 with a 22ml pod, the compact Mini Ultra at £3.99 and the Rubik at £5.99, plus refillable options in the Quokka range. None of that is required to use a pouch, which is rather the point.
Cost, and what to do with a flavour you do not get on with
What a can costs to run
Pouches are simple to budget for because there are no consumables beyond the pouches themselves - no coils, no pods, no charger, nothing that wears out.
- Two pouches a day: roughly 0.7 cans a week, which is around £3.
- Four pouches a day: roughly 1.4 cans a week, which is around £6.
- Six pouches a day: roughly 2.1 cans a week, which is around £9.
Those figures assume a can of twenty; check the can you receive, because pouch counts vary across the category. The comparison with a vaping set-up is not straightforward, because a device's cost depends heavily on coil consumption and how much liquid you get through, but pouches are predictable in a way that hardware is not. There is no unexpected £20 when a device fails.
If a flavour is not for you
Pouches are a more committed purchase than a 10ml bottle in one sense - you cannot blend two cans together the way you can blend two liquids - but a can is small and inexpensive, so the stakes are low.
- Put it away rather than binning it. Palate fatigue and first impressions are not the same thing. A flavour that seemed wrong in week one is often fine a month later, particularly if you have been using something very different in between.
- Use it as the rotation flavour. A profile you find slightly too much for daily use is often exactly right as the one you switch to for a day when everything else has gone flat.
- Do not pass it on casually. These are age-restricted products containing a meaningful amount of nicotine. Giving a can to anyone under 18 is an offence, and it is not a thing to leave lying around.
- Buy singles first. At £4.49 there is no reason to buy three cans of an untried flavour. Buy one of each across families, find what you actually reach for, and stock up on that.
Storing a can you are not currently using is straightforward: seal it, keep it cool and dry, and check the date on it before you come back to it. A can that has dried out will feel scratchy and taste flat, which is a storage outcome rather than a fault with the product.
UK rules and our policy
Age
Hayati Nicotine Pouches are for adults aged 18 and over. We age-verify every order containing a nicotine product and we will not dispatch one we cannot verify. It is an offence to buy age-restricted nicotine products on behalf of someone under 18, and we take that seriously.
What TPD limits do and do not cover
The 20mg per millilitre nicotine cap, the 10ml bottle limit and the 2ml tank limit that appear throughout our e-liquid pages come from the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations and apply to vaping products. They are not the framework that governs oral nicotine pouches, which is why a pouch can be labelled 12mg per pouch without any reference to those figures. This is a statement about which rules apply to which product category, not a suggestion that pouches are unregulated.
What we do not claim
We make no health claims about nicotine pouches, we do not present them as a way of stopping smoking, and nothing on this page is medical advice. Nicotine is an addictive substance. If you want advice about nicotine use, speak to a pharmacist or your GP rather than to a retailer.
Who we are
Hayati Flavours is an independent UK specialist retailer of Hayati products. We are not the brand's own shop and we do not speak on the manufacturer's behalf. We stock the catalogue, hold it in stock and describe it accurately. Browse the full store or the newest listings.
Ordering, delivery and where to go next
Delivery
UK delivery is free on orders over £20, with a standard charge below that. We ship on tracked 24 and tracked 48 services and email tracking when your parcel leaves us. Orders placed before the daily cut-off go out the same working day. At £4.49 a can, five cans clears the free delivery threshold, and cans are light, so a mixed order of pouches and liquid usually travels as one parcel.
Age verification
Every order containing a nicotine product goes through an age check before dispatch. Most resolve automatically against public records within seconds. Where yours cannot be matched, we will ask you for a document before we ship. There is no way around this step and no way to opt out of it.
Buying a mixed order
Nothing stops you ordering pouches alongside bottles or devices; it all ships together. If you are close to the free delivery threshold, adding a can of a flavour you have not tried is a cheaper way to reach it than another device.
Where to go next
If the pouch format does not suit you, the rest of the catalogue offers several routes to the same flavours. Prefilled pod kits are the least demanding vaping option, with nothing to fill or maintain. Pro Max Nic Salts give you 49 bottled flavours at 10mg for refillable hardware. The Hayati E-Liquids hub explains the whole bottled range, and refillable pod kits cover the hardware that takes it.
If the pouches do suit you, the sensible next step is simply to widen the flavour rotation. Eleven cans at £4.49 is not a large outlay spread over time, and having a cooled, a fruit and a non-sweet option open at once keeps any one of them from becoming tiring.

Frequently asked questions
What are Hayati Nicotine Pouches made of?
They are tobacco-free white pouches: a small sealed sachet placed under the upper lip. Pouches in this category typically contain plant-based fibres as a carrier along with nicotine, flavourings, sweeteners and pH regulators. There is no tobacco leaf, no combustion and no vapour. Check the can for the full ingredient listing on the product you receive.
How strong are they?
Every flavour in this range is 12mg of nicotine per pouch, and there are no alternative strengths. Across the category as a whole, pouches run from low single figures to above 20mg, so 12mg sits in the upper-middle. If it feels like a lot, shorten the session rather than looking for a different number.
How is 12mg per pouch different from 12mg e-liquid?
They measure different things and do not convert. E-liquid is quoted per millilitre because it is a liquid consumed over many draws; a pouch is a single object, so its figure is the total nicotine it contains. A 10ml bottle at 10mg holds 100mg of nicotine in total but is used across days. The two numbers are not comparable.
How long do you leave a pouch in?
Twenty to forty minutes is the usual range, and you can remove it sooner whenever you have had enough. Flavour is strongest in the first ten minutes and fades from there, which is a fair signal that the pouch is spent. If you are new to the format, start with ten minutes rather than a full session.
Where exactly does the pouch go?
Between your upper lip and your gum, off to one side rather than centred at the front. Press it flat with your tongue so it sits out of the way. You can talk normally with it in place. Do not chew it, do not move it around constantly, and never swallow it.
Is the tingling normal?
Yes, a tingle or slight warmth under the lip in the first minute or two is a normal characteristic of the format and usually settles as the initial release slows. Extra saliva at the start is also expected. If it stays uncomfortable, take the pouch out; some people find rotating it to the other side of the lip helps.
Are nicotine pouches the same as snus?
No. Snus contains ground tobacco leaf; these pouches are tobacco-free, which is why they are white rather than brown. That is a difference in what is inside the sachet. It is also why the flavour range can include profiles like Bubblegum and Strawberry Lychee that would not work on a tobacco base.
How do I dispose of a used pouch?
Put it in the catch compartment in the can lid if yours has one, then empty that into a general waste bin. Never flush a pouch - it does not break down and contributes to blockages - and never drop one on the ground. A used pouch still contains residual nicotine, so keep them away from children and animals.
How many pouches are in a can?
Check the can you receive, as counts vary across the category; cans of this type commonly hold around twenty. At £4.49 a can, twenty pouches works out at roughly 22p each. Every flavour in the range is the same price, so the cost per pouch does not change whichever you pick.
Which flavour should I try first?
Frosted Mint is the benchmark for the category and the most reliable first purchase. After that, spread out rather than buying three versions of one idea: Strawberry Lychee is the most distinctive fruit option, and Coffee is the only flavour here that is not sweet-led, which suits people who find fruit cloying over a long session.
How should I store them?
Cool, dry, upright and sealed, with the lid closed fully after each use. Heat dries pouches out and flattens the flavour, so a hot car is the worst place for a can. Some people refrigerate them to keep them moist, which is optional. Always store them out of reach of children and pets - they look and smell like sweets.
Do I have to be 18 to buy nicotine pouches?
Yes. We sell every nicotine product, pouches included, to adults aged 18 and over only, and every order is age-verified before dispatch. Most checks clear automatically in seconds; where a match cannot be made we will ask for identification. Buying age-restricted nicotine products for someone under 18 is an offence.
