What Makes BAOW Nicotine Pouches Different?
Snusdirect proudly stocks dozens of different brands, so asking what makes BAOW pouches so special is a valid question.
Here are its main differentiators:
- Unusual flavours. Bored of the usual nicotine pouch taste profiles, like citrus and berry? BAOW takes a different approach, with many of its pouches centered around cocktails (alongside more traditional options).
- Swedish quality. We’re not saying that Swedish nicotine pouches are definitively the best, but they just might have more heritage and well-known brands behind them than any other country. BAOW pouches are manufactured in Sweden, so make of that what you will.
- High strengths. For those who like their pouches strong, BAOW is likely to suit. Each portion contains 12mg of nicotine, making them stronger than the standard nicotine pouch. Plus, they’re moist, which provides an even more intense experience.
- A cool name. Of course we wouldn’t suggest choosing a nicotine pouch based purely on its name. But let’s face it — “BAOW” is fun to say, and it adds to the experience just a tad.
The “BAOW” Factor: BAOW Pouches Flavours
We’ve already spoiled a large part of the surprise about what exactly the “BAOW factor” is about these pouches by giving away that many flavour profiles in the collection are inspired by alcoholic drinks.
But now, let’s look at what exactly those drinks are, along with other options BAOW offers.
The range includes the following:
- BAOW Ice Mint. For those who prefer to stick to a more traditional pouch flavour, Ice Mint is a portion that just makes sense. It uses icy mint to send the mouth on a cooling journey.
- BAOW Gin & Tonic. There’s nothing like a good old G&T. It’s refreshing, sour in the most satisfying way possible, and often infused with a little extra flavour. BAOW brings all of that to its pouches.
- BAOW Negroni. Gin lovers get a second chance to enjoy their favourite spirit with the BAOW range, because the brand also offers a Negroni flavour. This cocktail is known for its classiness, and it brings an extra dimension of flavour as it also emulates the taste of wine.
- BAOW Pina Colada. We all know how the song goes. This portion brings together creamy coconut and tropical pineapple for an irresistible taste experience.
This should probably go without saying, but just to be crystal clear — despite taking inspiration from alcohol, all of these pouches are completely alcohol-free. Just like how coffee nicotine pouches are caffeine-free.
Like Helwit? Try BAOW Now
Trying a new brand can always feel like a risk, especially when it’s offering “out-there” choices like Gin & Tonic. BAOW was launched in 2024, so it’s fairly fresh meat in the market. But there’s no real risk here, because BAOW pouches are actually made by an established manufacturer.
We’ve already mentioned that BAOW pouches are made by a Swedish company, which generally suggests a solid understanding of manufacturing methods and ingredient quality. But it gets even better than that.
Introducing Yoik AB
BAOW manufacturer Yoik AB dates back to 2018, and it has already made another popular brand, Helwit nicotine pouches. This collection is much-loved by Snusdirect customers for its adventurous flavour profiles.
Plus, Yoik AB only uses flavours approved by taste critics and follows eco-friendly practices — the pouches are made in Gransholms Bruk, which is known as one of the most sustainable factories in the world. How’s that for an extra reason to choose the portions?
Helwit vs BAOW
Since Helwit and BAOW pouches are both made by Yoik, let’s look at some ways the two brands are similar and different:
- The two brands share interesting taste profiles, but they’re not interesting in the same way. Helwit stays away from alcohol-inspired flavours, instead offering options like Cinnapple, Violet, and Banana.
- Both have minimalist yet modern packaging.
- BAOW pouches are the stronger option. The most potent Helwit pouches contain 7.5mg of nicotine per pouch, which is significantly less than the 12mg of nicotine in BAOW pouches.
- Both brands make moist pouches, resulting in a fast release of nicotine and flavour.
