I recently heard about these new nicotine pouches made by our friends at Cannadips, in collaboration with SpectrumLeaf in Europe. Meet Coco Nicotine Pouches! These are some interesting ones. Most nicotine pouches contain some form of plant fiber or cellulose filling. These have the filling that Cannadips uses, coconut coir (coconut fiber), which gives a smoother release of flavor, and a long lasting flavor profile. They launch in 4 flavors, inspired by Cannadips popular flavors: peach, mint, blue raspberry, and mint! In the review, we'll cover their differences, such as aroma and flavor. But, before we do that I wanted to cover all their similarities so that I wouldn't get too repetitive.
Product Commonalities:
Contents: Each one of these cans weighs 9 grams and has 20 pouches, for 0.45 grams each. They all have the same nicotine content, 9mg/pouch.
Pouch/Mouthfeel: The pouches are lighter in weight, at 0.45g each. They come in the slim format, and fit comfortably in the lip and feel soft against the gum. The flavor release is gradual, and as the pouch gets more moist it gets softer against the gum, and the flavor becomes more prevalent. You'll also notice, due to the coconut fiber filler that these have a darker material in the pouch, not "all white" like other nicotine pouches. I like it, it's a nice look.
Nicotine Release: The nicotine release on these is pretty gentle, I find it to be much more enjoyable than standard nicotine pouches. It isn't as quick, sharp, or jagged as others. It's a steady, comfortable nicotine release that feels to be right at the regular strength level.
Flavor Longevity: These come with the same long lasting flavor that you experience with Cannadips, well over an hour. This is uncommon for nicotine pouches, as most don't last near this long.

Flavor Description: "a fruity taste of blue raspberries".
Review: Opening the can, I pick up a tart, tangy, lightly sweet blue raspberry aroma. In the taste, it's pretty mild, and gentle. The blue raspberry flavor is tart, and comes with a light sweetness.
Coco Clean Peach
Flavor Description: "a classic and delicious flavour of peaches".
Review: This one has a nice aroma of natural peach. It's lightly sweet, and seems to have a little vanilla in the mix. In the pouch, the peach flavor is pretty mild. It's a natural, lightly sweet flavor with a little hint of vanilla to it.
Coco Natural Mint
Flavor Description: "a classic and balanced taste of mint".
Review: This one has a smooth, fresh aroma of mint. It's lightly sweet, and almost seems to have a little herbal character to it. In the flavor, the mint is smooth, gentle and balanced. It has a slight hint of herbs, and a subtle sweetness.
Coco Tropical Mango
Flavor Description: "a fruity and delicious flavour of mango".
Review: Cannadips Mango flavor is one of my favorites. Of their CBD pouch products, the two I use most are their Mango and Wintergreen flavors. So, when I saw they were bringing Mango to the Coco line, I was pretty excited to try it out. In the aroma, I pick up a natural tone of mango. It is tropical, and tangy. The flavor is delicious. The mango flavor is mild, and pretty gentle. It's tropical, slightly tangy, and has a little sweetness to it. It's a pretty tasty pouch!
Rating and Final Thoughts
All in all, a pretty well rounded product line. Mango was my favorite, at 4/5. Peach and Razz tied at 3.83/5. And Mint came in at 3.5/5. Pretty decent scores. For my nicotine pouch audience, you'll remember that I don't usually rate nicotine pouches over a 4, mainly because I'm a snus guy. So if you a see a score that is over 3/5, that means it's generally a good product. So all in all, pretty good. I did find these more satisfying than regular nicotine pouches. The different filler yielded a more comfortable nicotine release, and a longer lasting flavor. So, if you like tobacco free products and want to try something different, you'll enjoy these!
These are available to buy at SnusMe.com!
