I first reviewed the Volt series when it launched last summer. At the time, I wasn't sure if it was replacing the Zyn sold in Sweden (as the product quality is the same), but it appears that isn't the case, as Zyn is still sold in Sweden. The Volt line has expanded, and now has a few new flavors, one of which we are talking about today: Volt Mystic Blue! I grabbed a can of this on my recent SnusMe.com order. And yes, though I don't review a lot of nicotine pouches, I still review the ones that interest me or have unique sounding flavors. This one definitely sounded unique to me: "A flavor of dark berries, vanilla, and mint". Each can weighs in at 14.7 grams and has 21 pouches, for 0.7 grams each. The nicotine content is 9.3mg/g (0.93%), or 6.51mg/portion.
Like I said, when I heard about this one, I was intrigued. Blueberry/Vanilla isn't a common flavor. I can only recall one product from years back that had that flavor, which tells you it's quite unique. When you open the can, a minty freshness greets you. I pick up a sweet blueberry smell, along with hints of smooth vanilla. The pouches are slim, pretty soft, and semi-moist. They're lighter in weight, but still comfortable under the lip. The flavor is interesting! I pick up blueberry up front, along with a subtle hint of mint. It's a sweet flavor, to say the least. Behind the blueberry is a smooth, underlying hint of vanilla. The nicotine level feels just a hair below regular strength. The flavor, on average, lasts about 40-45 minutes.

Rating and Final Thoughts
I rated this one at 3.33/5. That may sound low but usually if I rate a nicotine pouch over a 3, that's what I consider to be a decent score. Of the Volt series, this is probably the most unique flavor, but also when compared to nicotine pouches in general this is one that really stands out. It's not a full time flavor for me, but if I was a nicotine pouch user I could see myself reaching for a can of this from time to time. If you're someone who uses nicotine pouches, you'll probably enjoy this one!
