Lyft was one of the first major brands that launched when this category was in its infancy, and grew to be a fan favorite over the past several years. Recently, BAT began rebranding Lyft into Velo, to give it more worldwide uniformity. However, the Lyft name has re-emerged in Sweden and now offers a few new and interesting flavours. If you like Velo, you’ll find with this one it’s the same product quality and experience you get with that one. And vice-versa. Today, we’re checking out a new addition to the relaunched Swedish Lyft line: Cool Eucalyptus X-Strong!

LYFT Cool Eucalyptus X-Strong bottom canProduct Specifics:

Can Weight: 16.1 grams

Portion Format: Slim Nicotine Pouches

Portion Count: 23 pouches

Portion Weight: 0.7 grams each

Nicotine (Total mg/g): 15.57mg/g

Nicotine %: 1.557%

Nicotine (mg/Portion): 10.9mg/pouch

LYFT Cool Eucalyptus X-Strong open can

To be honest, when I first checked this one out, I felt like I had used it before. I used a few more pouches and then it hit me, this one reminds me a lot of Velo Eucalyptus, that I reviewed a few months ago. That makes sense, given that Lyft and Velo are both made by BAT. My estimation is that this may be a rebranded Velo Eucalyptus, but I’m not entirely sure on that one. That being said, I’m still going to give this one a review.

When you open the can, a present aroma of menthol comes through. Much like opening a fresh bag of menthol cough drops, this one packs the menthol aroma in a major way. The pouches are slim, with a soft feel to them. They have a decent moisture amount, and release flavour pretty quickly under the lip. When I put one in, at first I get a slight burn, which fades and gives way to a gentle cooling sensation. They have a nice fit under the lip, and feel pretty soft against the gum. In the flavour profile, it’s a pretty straightforward taste of menthol. It’s quite present, and comes with a light amount of sweetness to it. If you like menthol, you’ll be impressed with the bold nature of menthol in the flavour profile of this one. In the nicotine strength, this one comes in at 10.9mg/pouch. That may sound like regular strength on paper, but to me it definitely delivers at the strong level, maybe a little bit above. This one comes on pretty quickly, and has a decent kick to it. In the flavour longevity, this one hangs out for about 40-45 minutes, so it has a pretty decent amount of life to it.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation

In the world of nicotine pouches, there is no higher quality than Lyft / Velo. These pouches offer a wide mix of flavours and strengths, and a premium pouch. No matter where you fall, there is something for you within this series. If you like the taste of menthol, you’ll feel right at home with this one, with the strong presence of menthol in the flavour profile!

Snubie’s Opinion

I don’t really use menthol pouches. Every now and then, if I catch a cold or have a sore throat, I’ll reach for a menthol pouch, but it’s not a flavour I use much of myself. However, I think people who enjoy this sort of thing will be pleased with it. It’s a high quality pouch, with a bold flavour of menthol! While not for me, it is a pretty good pouch that menthol lovers are going to enjoy.

<![CDATA[LYFT Citrus Mint Mini - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/lyft-citrus-mint-mini-expert-review When it comes to nicotine pouches, there is no brand more highly regarded than Lyft / Velo. Lyft was one of the earliest brands of nicotine pouches launched when this category was in its infancy. Over the past few years, BAT began rebranding Lyft into Velo, to have more worldwide uniformity. However, recently the Lyft brand began popping back up in small numbers, with new tastes. This is a new one, and has an interesting flavour that blends citrus and mint. This also has the mini pouch size, which is relatively uncommon in nicotine pouches. That being said, this product sounds quite unique, and very exciting. So, let’s get into the review and check out LYFT Citrus Mint Mini!

LYFT Citrus Mint Mini bottom canProduct Specifics:

Can Weight: 10 grams

Portion Format: Mini Nicotine Pouches

Portion Count: 20 pouches

Portion Weight: 0.5 grams each

Nicotine (Total mg/g): 12mg/g

Nicotine %: 1.2%

Nicotine (mg/Portion): 6mg/pouch

LYFT Citrus Mint Mini open can

Opening the can, I encounter a bright aroma of citrus. It seems to be a mix of orange and lemon, if I had to place it. There’s a cooling presence to the aroma, but it doesn’t smell too much like mint, nor does it smell too much like menthol. It’s pretty interesting, and intriguing. It’s tart, and faintly sweet. The pouches are the mini size, at 0.5g each. They’re pretty soft to the touch, and comfortable under the lip. They’re moderately moist, so they have a great feel, and a quick release of the flavour profile. Under the lip, I encounter a gentle cooling presence, which adds a freshness to this pouch. It’s interesting, it doesn’t seem too minty. I don’t encounter a lot of mint in the flavour profile, nor do I notice a big menthol tone. It’s refreshing, and mint-ish, but it doesn’t have a big mint flavour. I’m okay with that, because I usually don’t prefer to mix mint with other flavors. The citrus is the best part of the flavor. It seems to be mostly orange, but I notice a little lemon in the mix, too. It’s tart, and has a little sweetness to it that isn’t too overdone. The nicotine strength on this one, with one pouch, feels to be about regular strength, and has a satisfactory delivery. The flavour lasts a good 35-40 minutes, on average, which is about normal for most nicotine pouches.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation

There’s no mistaking that Lyft and Velo are the most popular, and widely known, nicotine pouch products out there. Second to maybe Zyn. However, there’s a reason these are so popular. Not only is there a wide mix of flavours and strengths to this series, they also have a high product quality. This one is an example of the more unique flavours in the Lyft/Velo series. It has a nice citrusy taste that isn’t too minty, and a smaller pouch size for those who want something smaller in the lip.

Snubie’s Opinion

I usually don’t like mixing mint and other flavours. It doesn’t usually seem to work for me. However, this one wasn’t too minty, and I found the freshness in the flavour worked well with the citrus. I don’t do mini pouches, so this one isn’t one I’d use, but I think people who do enjoy the smaller pouch are going to be quite pleased with this one. It has a really nice, summery flavour to it!

<![CDATA[VELO Cool Storm - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/velo-cool-storm-expert-review The Velo series of nicotine pouches is one of the most popular, and highly regarded nicotine pouch series on the market today. Originally known as Lyft, it evolved and transformed into Velo over the past few years. Granted, there are some Lyft products popping up here and there, but for the majority of this brand, BAT has stuck with using Velo as their “main name” for nicotine pouches. This brand also has a LOT of mint flavours and strengths. Just over the past month they have released 4 new mint pouches. Today, we’re going to be checking out Velo Cool Storm X-Strong. Without further ado, let’s check out this pouch!

VELO Cool Storm Bottom canProduct Specifics:

Can Weight: 14 grams

Portion Format: Slim Nicotine Pouches

Portion Count: 20 pouches

Portion Weight: 0.7 grams each

Nicotine (Total mg/g): 15.57mg/g

Nicotine %: 1.557%

Nicotine (mg/Portion): 10.9mg/pouch

When you open the can, the aroma that comes through is a sharp, fresh smell of mint. I notice menthol right off the bat, with a little peppermint in the mix. The menthol isn’t too overly heavy, nor is it too medicinal. There’s a decent amount of sweetness to it, but it’s not overdone. It’s a pretty refreshing aroma! When I put a pouch under the lip, I notice a slight burn at first, which gives way to a gentle cooling sensation. The pouches are the slim size, with a soft portion material and a decent moisture amount. Under the lip they have a nice fit, and feel comfortable against the gum. As far as the taste goes, it’s pretty minty! I’m usually not the biggest fan of menthol flavours, but with this one it’s not too mentholated. The mint/menthol balance is pretty even. I pick up the menthol first, but the peppermint comes through pretty quickly. It’s slightly sweet, icy, and refreshing. In the nicotine strength, this one does have a little extra kick to it. Though it is called an “X-Strong”, to me it feels to be around the strong level, or at most between strong and extra strong. If you like a little extra kick with your pouches, you’ll be satisfied with this one. The flavour lasts the usual 40-45 minutes that most Velo/Lyft products last, so you get a decent flavour longevity with this one.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation

The Lyft/Velo series is the undisputed top of the line for nicotine pouches. There are so many brands out there nowadays, but this one is one of the earliest, and still has an incredibly high product quality to it. Not only that, but the series has a pretty wide mix of flavours and strengths available so no matter what you’re looking for, you can definitely find something in the Lyft or Velo series.

Snubie’s Opinion

There are so many mint nicotine pouches out there. It seems like that is most of what people are making nowadays. Personally, I’m not a big mint pouch user. I’ll use them after brushing my teeth, but it’s not a flavour category I jump for. Of the Lyft/Velo family, I prefer their regular strength Velo Mint, because it has a smooth, spearmint taste and less strength. But if you like icy mint flavours and want something with a strong kick to it, this is one you’ll want to check out.

<![CDATA[VELO Freeze Ultra - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/velo-ultra-freeze-expert-review The Velo / Lyft family of nicotine pouches is one of the longest lasting lines, going all the way back to the beginning of the tobacco-free nicotine pouch category. With a huge array of flavours and strengths, it has presented itself as one of the most versatile ranges of products on the market today. On that subject, it also has a LOT of mint flavours. Recently, four new mint variants have been launched under the Velo / Lyft banner, including this one, Freeze Ultra. This is one for those high octane users who like a product with a little kick to it, but also an icy flavour of mint. So, let’s get to know it better!

VELO Ultra Freeze bottom canProduct Specifics:

Can Weight: 14 grams

Portion Format: Slim Nicotine Pouches

Portion Count: 20 pouches

Portion Weight: 0.7 grams each

Nicotine (Total mg/g): 20mg/g

Nicotine %: 2.0%

Nicotine (mg/Portion): 14mg/pouch

VELO Ultra Freeze open can

Opening the can, an icy, powerful aroma of mint greets you. It’s focused, and very present. It’s not super sweet, but has a dab of sweetness to it. It’s mostly a balanced aroma of peppermint with just a little menthol in the mix. The pouches are slim, with a soft fit and a decent moisture amount to them. They feel soft against the gum, and a nice fit in the lip. When you put one in, you’ll notice a cooling sensation that comes on, along with a subtle freshness to it. In the flavour profile, it’s a pretty sharp, focused taste of peppermint. It’s icy, and balanced out with just a little touch of menthol in the mix. Like the aroma, it has a little sweetness to it, but it’s not overly sweet. It’s a pretty well balanced, powerful taste of mint. In the nicotine department, this one has a pretty strong kick to it. If I had to place it, I’d say between strong and extra strong, but close to extra strong. It hits pretty quickly, and feels pretty strong. The flavour hangs out about 35-40 minutes or so, which is the usual longevity you come to expect from the Lyft / Velo series.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

There’s a reason Lyft and Velo are widely regarded as the top of the mountain in the nicotine pouch realm. This series has a high product quality, and a wide mix of flavors and strengths. No matter what you’re looking for, or what you like, you can easily find it in the Lyft / Velo range. If you like mint products but want something that has a strong kick to it, this is one you’ll be wanting to try out.

Snubie’s Opinion:

This one is much too strong for me personally so I wouldn’t consider it one I’d use or throw in the mix. I think Velo’s regular strength Mint is good, and has a nicer taste with the spearmint flavour. However, I think people who like mint are going to be quite pleased with this one, and really enjoy it.

<![CDATA[Skruf Super White Slim Fresh #2 - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/skruf-super-white-slim-fresh-2-expert-review There are a lot of nicotine pouch product lines on the market nowadays. But, one that stands out consistently is Skruf Super White. This product, for example, is a top seller on SnusDirect.eu. Actually, many Skruf Super White products are. This one, Skruf Super White Slim Fresh #2, has a mint taste, and comes in at strength #2, meaning it’s a regular strength product. While the Skruf Super White line is quite popular, their Fresh flavour is arguably the most popular part of this lineup.

Skruf Super White Slim Fresh #2 bottom canProduct Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 17.3 grams
  • Portion Format: Slim Nicotine Pouches
  • Portion Count: 24 pouches
  • Portion Weight: 0.72 grams each
  • Nicotine (Total mg/g): 8mg/g
  • Nicotine %: 0.8%
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 5.77mg/pouch

Skruf Super White Fresh #2 open can

Opening up the can, you’ll quickly see how high quality this one is. The aroma is a present, refreshing aroma of peppermint. I notice a light touch of menthol behind it, but it’s not too overpowering. The pouches are soft, semi-moist, and comfortable under the lip. Putting one in, I notice it to be soft against the gum, and to come with a gentle, cooling presence. The cooling sensation also spreads throughout the mouth, which is quite nice.

In the flavour profile, it's a pretty refreshing taste of mint. It’s present, icy, and lightly sweet. The menthol mingles in from the background, but doesn’t overtake the peppermint taste at all.

In the nicotine department, this one hangs out at around the regular level. I find it to have a nice, steady delivery of nicotine to it. The flavor lasts for about 40-45 minutes, on average.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

If you’re looking for a line of nicotine pouches, Skruf Super White is one of the top ones in terms of overall product quality. There are a lot of different flavours and strengths available, so no matter where you fall, you can find something you’ll enjoy. The Fresh line has a lot of different strengths, so if you’re a mint lover, you can grab some of this to try out! It may become your new favorite.

Snubie’s Opinion:

This line is pretty impressive. I’ve reviewed them all, so trust me, I know. For mint lovers, this is one of the best out there. You get a fresh taste, with a high level of product quality. If you don’t think this one is strong enough, it goes up to strength 2, 3, 4, and so on. So, you can find something that kicks just the way you want it to, and still enjoy this fresh flavour!

<![CDATA[VELO Ice Cool - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/velo-ice-cool-expert-review When it comes to nicotine pouches, there is no brand that sits higher atop the mountain than VELO, formerly known as LYFT. Well, also known as Lyft in some markets. It’s very confusing. But, the one we’re talking about today is a VELO branded product called Velo Ice Cool! If you check the bestsellers section here on SnusDirect.eu, you’ll find this is one of the highest rated. And, with good cause. In terms of mint flavoured nicotine pouches, there aren’t many out there that are better, or more impressive, than this one. But, what makes it so good? Why is it so popular? Well, let’s do a review and check it out.

VELO Ice Cool Bottom canProduct Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 14.7 grams
  • Portion Format: Slim All White Portion
  • Portion Count: 21 portions
  • Portion Weight: 0.7 gram each
  • Nicotine (Total mg/g): 14.28mg/g
  • Nicotine %: 1.428%
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 10mg/portion

When you open the can, you’ll notice the high quality of Velo Ice Cool as soon as you encounter the product. The aroma of peppermint greets you quickly, and it comes through in a sharp, ice, lightly sweet way. I notice a dab of menthol in the mix, but it’s nothing too strong or overbearing, by any means.

The pouches are quite soft, and lightly moist. Under the lip, they feel soft against the gum, and come with a subtle cooling presence. The fresh sensation spreads throughout the mouth, and is pretty nice to experience.

The flavour of mint is present, and comes through in an icy, refreshing way. The peppermint is sharp, and focused. It has some sweetness to it but not too much. The menthol is very mild, as well, and doesn’t become too overpowering in the flavour.

In terms of strength, this one feels to deliver right at the strong level. It has a quick, solid delivery of nicotine. The flavour hangs out for about 45 minutes or so, which is pretty impressive for a nicotine pouch.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

If you haven’t had Velo, or Lyft, before, this is a line that you have to try out if you enjoy nicotine pouches. It’s highly regarded amongst consumers of this type of product, and stands apart as one of the highest quality nicotine pouch lines on the market. This line comes with a huge assortment of flavours and strengths, but Ice Cool is arguably one of their most popular variants!

Snubie’s Opinion:

I’ve had this flavour so, so many times. From Epok, to Lyft, to Velo, it’s proven itself time and time again to be a high quality offering for those who enjoy mint flavors. For me, I’m not the biggest mint person, and I enjoy other Velo products such as their Liquorice flavor, for example. But, if you’re a mint lover, and a nicotine pouch enthusiast, this is one that is going to be right up your alley!

<![CDATA[Skruf Super White Fresh #3 - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/skruf-super-white-fresh-3-expert-review The nicotine pouch category is quite large, and growing larger by the day. Of all the products out there, there are a few lines that stand out in terms of product quality, such as Velo, Ace, Loop, and Skruf Super White. This product, Skruf Super White Fresh, is one of the most highly regarded products of the Skruf Super White line. The Fresh range comes in a variety of strengths, but today we’re going to be checking out the “strong” version, Skruf Super White Slim Fresh Strong #3. Here on SnusDirect.eu, this one is a real bestseller! So, what makes it so popular? Well, let’s find out.

Skruf Super White Slim Fresh Strong #3 bottom can

Product Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 17.3 grams
  • Portion Format: Slim All White Portion
  • Portion Count: 24 portions
  • Portion Weight: 0.72 gram each
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 10mg/portion

Skruf Super White Slim Fresh Strong #3 open can

Opening up the can, the aroma that comes through is a refreshing smell of peppermint. It’s lightly sweet, and present in nature. I pick up just a touch of menthol in the background, but it isn’t too overpowering by any means. The pouches are pretty soft, with a light moisture amount. I find them comfortable under the lip, with a nice feel against the gum. Since this one is a mint product, you’ll get a nice cooling sensation in the lip, and throughout the mouth with this one!

The flavour profile is, like the aroma, peppermint. It’s lightly sweet, and pretty gentle in nature. I do get a little menthol in the back, but it isn’t an overpowering menthol, nor does it overtake the peppermint.

In the strength, it feels to be a little above regular strength. I notice just a little extra kick with it, but it isn’t uncomfortable or too much. In regard to the flavour longevity, I find this one to hang around for about 45 or so minutes.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

If you’re looking for a line of nicotine pouches to try out, the Skruf Super White line is one of the more high quality offerings out there. There are a few different flavours on it, but the Fresh flavor is the most popular. With strengths starting at Level 2 and going all the way up to extra strong, you can find a product that suits you best in this category depending on how much nicotine you want!

Snubie’s Opinion:

Skruf Super White is a high quality line. I’ve reviewed and tried 99% of the nicotine pouches out there, and I can say that compared to others, this one is in the top tier of products. If you’re a mint lover and looking for a decent, all day product, this is one you’d probably enjoy. It has a great quality, steady nicotine release, and a fresh flavour!

<![CDATA[VELO Freeze X-strong - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/velo-freeze-x-strong-expert-review Meet VELO Freeze! This strong, icy nicotine pouch product is one of the top sellers here on SnusDirect.eu, so we’re going to get to know it a little better today. If you’re not familiar with the VELO line, this line has been around for quite a while. It was formerly known as Lyft, but was rebranded a few years back. Lyft, or Velo, is widely regarded as one of the top brands out there today. Not just for it’s wide mix of flavors and strengths, but also (and mainly) for the high quality you get with Velo. It’s a very premium product, for sure. So, let’s jump into this and get to know VELO Freeze!

Velo freeze bottom canProduct Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 14.7 grams
  • Portion Format: Slim All White Portion
  • Portion Count: 21 portions
  • Portion Weight: 0.7 grams each
  • Nicotine (Total mg/g): 15.57mg/g
  • Nicotine %: 1.557%
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 10.9mg/portion

Opening the can of VELO Freeze, I get quite a sharp aroma! The peppermint is clear, and quite icy. I don’t notice it to be as sweet as with Velo Mint, for example. It’s about as sweet as VELO Ice Cool.

The pouches are slim, with a soft fit under the lip. They’re moderately moist, and feel comfortable against the gum. Under the lip, I get a light sting at first, but then a fresh cooling sensation that spreads pretty well throughout the mouth.

In the flavor, the peppermint taste is quite present. It’s sharp, focused, and icy. It’s not overly sweet, which is pretty nice for a mint product.

In the strength, this one has quite a kick. It feels to be at the strong level, sometimes a little over. So expect quite a kick with this one. I find the flavor kicks around for about 40-45 minutes, on average. All in all, it’s a sharp, icy product with a strong nicotine kick and a long lasting flavor!

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

Velo is a high quality line of nicotine pouches with a stellar reputation. This line has been around for a long time, and is a customer favorite. This product is a top seller here, and for good cause. It has a fresh, minty taste with a strong nicotine kick. If you’re a mint lover who wants something extra-icy, this is one you’ll enjoy.

Snubie’s Opinion:

This one isn’t one for me, though I do think it’s a pretty high quality product. For me, it’s a little stronger than I prefer. I think Velo’s Ice Cool is a better offering, personally. But, I know quite a few who swear by this one, and use it all the time. If you’re one who likes the stronger stuff, this is going to be something you’ll want to check out and enjoy!

<![CDATA[VELO Easy Mint Mini - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/velo-easy-mint-mini-expert-review The LYFT / VELO nicotine pouch series has been around for quite sometime, and it quickly established itself as the king of the mountain in terms of nicotine pouches. Not just because it’s been around for a long time, but because it’s such a high quality product line. This one, VELO Easy Mint Mini, is a best seller here on SnusDirect.eu. Mini pouches are popular amongst those who want a more discrete pouch size, and a lighter nicotine level. This one offers all of that of course, and comes with a fresh, easy taste of sweet mint.

VELO Easy Mint Mini 4mg bottom can

Product Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 10 grams
  • Portion Format: Mini All White Portion
  • Portion Count: 20 portions
  • Portion Weight: 0.5 gram each
  • Nicotine (Total mg/g): 8mg/g
  • Nicotine %: 0.8%
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 4mg/portion

VELO Easy Mint Mini 4mg open can

Opening up the can, you’ll notice the aroma you first encounter is spearmint. To me, that was a nice surprise! Most mint products these days are peppermint, so it’s nice to encounter the sweet taste of spearmint.

The pouches are smaller in size, being the mini size. You’ll find they feel quite small under the lip. I mostly use regular size, so that may be why they feel smaller to me. People who use mini portions may be just fine with these. The portions are semi-moist, and soft to the touch, as well as comfortable under the lip. Being a mint product, you will of course encounter a gentle cooling sensation under the upper lip when you put one in.

The flavour of this one is gentle, and sweet. The spearmint taste comes through clearly, but doesn’t become too incredibly powerful or bold. It’s very well balanced, and pleasant.

In the nicotine strength, it feels to be a little below the regular strength mark. The flavor hangs out for about 40-45 minutes or so.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

The Lyft and Velo lines of nicotine pouches are quite popular. Mainly, because they have a reputation, longevity, and high product quality. The line has something for everyone, no matter where you fall with your favorite flavors or strengths. If you’re a mint lover who’s looking for a mint product in a smaller pouch, this one may be right up your alley!

Snubie’s Opinion:

I don’t use mini portions personally. So, this product isn’t one that’s for me. But, I will say the flavor is quite good. Of the mint nicotine pouches I’ve tried, this one has one of the better flavors out there. Mainly, because I really enjoy spearmint. If you like mini portions, I think this may be one you’re looking for that you will enjoy. Mint lovers, check it out!

<![CDATA[Ace X Cool Mint Slim - Expert Review]]> https://www.snusdirect.eu/blog/ace-x-cool-mint-slim-expert-review Today, we’re going to be checking out Ace X Cool Mint Slim! This is a nicotine pouch product made by Ministry of Snus in Denmark. If you haven’t heard of Ace, it’s one of the better lines of nicotine pouches on the market today. The Ace line has a high quality to it that you don’t find in a lot of others out there. Ace X is a newer variant of the regular Ace line, with an extra strong nicotine level of 16mg/g! This is a slim nicotine pouch, but they also make a full sized one called Ace X Cosmic. This one is a top seller here at SnusDirect.eu, so let’s find out what makes it so popular!

The Ace X line was reformulated in 2023 and the nicotine content, net weight and ingredients have been changed.

Ace X Cool Mint Slim bottom canProduct Specifics:

  • Can Weight: 10 grams
  • Portion Format: Slim Nicotine Pouch
  • Portion Count: 20 pouches
  • Portion Weight: 0.5 grams each
  • Nicotine (Total mg/g): 16mg/g
  • Nicotine %: 1.6%
  • Nicotine (mg/Portion): 8mg/pouch

Opening up the can, the mint aroma that comes through is quite sharp! The peppermint is present, icy, and fresh. I notice a little menthol to it, but not a huge amount. There is some sweetness to this product, but it’s not overbearingly sweet, by any means. When you put it under the lip you’ll encounter a slight tingle, and then a cooling freshness that spreads throughout the mouth.

The flavor is quite refreshing. I pick up peppermint in a major way. It’s quite present, icy, and refreshing. The peppermint is accompanied by a gentle touch of menthol in the background. It’s a pretty well rounded, fresh flavor.

In the nicotine department, this one delivers quite a kick to it. I find it to be over the strong level, but not quite to the extra strong level. The flavor lasts quite a while, which is a nice bonus. With this one, I’ve been able to enjoy it for almost up to 45 minutes, which is pretty long for a nicotine pouch.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

The Ace line is a high quality line of nicotine pouches that stands out compared to others on the market. If you like quality nicotine pouches with fresh flavors, the Ace X one is one you’ll want to explore if you’re looking for something with a little extra kick to it! This one has a fresh, icy taste of mint that any mint lover is going to enjoy.

Snubie’s Opinion:

I think the Ace line is pretty solid, personally. While I don’t use too many mint products, I do enjoy their citrus one from time to time. As far as this one goes, I can see why it’s so popular, and a best-seller here. It has a quality presentation, a fresh flavor, and a solid nicotine kick. If you’re a nicotine pouch fan who likes the mint flavor, this one may be right up your alley!
