So, it's 2024 and you may be new to nicotine pouches. You may be in Europe and already aware of these. Or, you may be an American using the mini dry pouches like ON! or Zyn and want to find something with more flavor. Well, look no further. Today, we're going to break down my nicotine pouch recommendations, all sorted by flavor! I'll provide a link to my review of each product I recommend so you can read further about each one if you want to!
Nicotine Strength Note / Recommendation
One quick note before we get into reviews, I want to talk about nicotine strength. There are some crazy strong nicotine pouches out there. Some go up to 150mg. Several years ago, I said I would no longer review any product over 26mg. I personally only use regular strength (with the occasional strong or extra strong). My recommendation is to not rush to the top. I've seen the heaviest smokers quit smoking with 8mg products. I don't advise you to go over 26mg of nicotine, as it can kill your tolerance. Most of these recommendations will stay under the 26mg mark, as well.
Tobacco-Inspired Flavors
The tobacco flavor is something lots of manufacturers have tried to copy, but no one has got it quite right yet. However, these are my recommendations for people looking for that "type" of flavor".
77 Classic Tobacco
Nicotine Strength: 10mg/pouch
My Notes: While no one has quite got the taste of tobacco just right yet for a nicotine pouch, this one is about as close as it gets.

Traditional Flavors
These are flavors for folks looking for more mature flavors, tastes that you can use all day long and not tire of. Flavors that aren't too sweet, but more grounded.
XRANGE Göteborgs Rapé
Nicotine Strength: 6.5mg/pouch
My Notes: This one is inspired by one of my favorite snus products and has a nice berry/floral/herbal type of flavor to it.

XRANGE General
Nicotine Strength: 6.5mg/pouch
My Notes: This is probably one of the best ones on this list. It embodies the taste of General with bergamot and pepper, and is a pouch you can use day in and day out.

Lundgrens Mörk
Nicotine Strength: 8mg/pouch
My Notes: This pouch is one that could fit in the tobacco category, but to me it seems more complex, and it hits more of those "traditional" or "mature" flavor notes that I like.

Wintergreen
When I made this category I had two products in it. I found out one had been discontinued, so there's really only one that ended up making the cut.
Kozmo Wintergreen
Nicotine Strength: 12.6mg/pouch
My Notes: I mean, it's the only one on the list. I'm still surprised more companies aren't making these in the slim/moist pouch format. Aside from that, it is pretty good.

My Final Thoughts
Hopefully this list helped! I've seen people ask for recommendations for so long, and I wanted to write this before, but I honestly wanted to wait until there were enough good, high quality products out there that I would actually recommend. For the past few years, the market has grown and now has products in it that I'd say "hey, this is a good one, try it out". Hopefully this list will steer you in the right direction and help you try out a wide array of products, tastes, and strengths!
If you're looking for where to find these, you can find most of these pouches either on SnusExpress.com or SnusMe.com. I usually alternate between these two shops when I do my orders.
