KickUp (Real White) Original Portion - Review. 1 March 2019.

In the past, I've reviewed KickUp Compact Energy (Original Portion) and and KickUp Real White (Soft Mint).  Granted, these aren't products I use regularly, but I do get requests for reviews of these products.  This, like KickUp Real White (Soft Mint) is an all white product, so it's a complete white pouch with completely white material.  KickUp does not contain tobacco or nicotine, but does contain guarana, ginseng, vitamins, and minerals. This, being a real white product, also contains xylitol as a sweetener.  The flavor description for this product says, "Real White Original is a dry ultra-white modern tobacco and nicotine free energy portion made from cellulose. It has a taste of bergamot orange and licorice that combine in a full and well balanced sweet flavor. Contains caffeine from guarana."  It comes in a 20 gram can, and contains 20 portions, for 1 gram each.

When you open the can, the aroma is a present smell of black licorice, a light sweetness, some pepper, and a gentle hint of citrus. The portions are quite soft and comfortable to the lip and have a quick flavor release.  The flavor is quite unique, and very enjoyable.  It's kind of like a peppery licorice taste with a hint of orange and a little sweetness. This product doesn't contain nicotine, but it does have guarana and caffeine. You feel a little kick from this like when you drink an energy drink, so it's a pretty interesting experience. The flavor, on average, lasts about 45 minutes.

If you're looking for a snus alternative, this would be something to check out.  Granted, it's not something I would use all the time, but it's out there and worth considering if you're looking to go tobacco and/or nicotine-free.
