V&You Nicotine Pouches: Mint - Review. 23 November 2020.

Today we're talking about another, you guessed it, nicotine pouch product. I know, it seems like that's all I review lately, but that seems to be what all the new products are right now. These are from a new company called V&You in the UK.  I recently reviewed their CBD Pouches, and today we're going to talk about their nicotine pouches.  The CBD pouches were called "&Chill".  These are called "&Boost" and "&Focus".  Probably named because of the nootropic effects of nicotine.  I actually recently did a video with Leo & Longevity on YouTube in which we talked about it, if you're interested in checking that out.

As far as this product goes, the flavor description says, "Cooling menthol blended with fresh spearmint".  Each can has 20 nicotine pouches.  The 2/4 strength one is 6mg/portion, and the 3/4 strength one is 10mg/portion.

When you open the can, a smooth menthol aroma greets you.  It does have a minty character to it, with a light sweetness.  The mint reminds me more of peppermint than spearmint.  The portions are slim, comfortable, and soft under the lip.    They have a mild burn at first, and then a gentle cooling presence.  The mint flavor is sharp, and focused.  It's not super sweet.  It is minty, but it seems to be more peppermint than anything.  I also notice mild menthol character to it.  The 6mg one feels to be a little less strong than regular strength, and the 10mg one feels to be a little above regular strength.  The flavor, on average, lasts about 40-50 minutes.

 

Rating and Final Thoughts

These rank at 2.92 out of 5 for me.  I averaged the nicotine ratings together, and you'll notice they're a little lower in ranking.  The rating is that way because one is less than regular strength and one is above regular strength, and regular strength is my preferred nicotine level.  In terms of overall rating, this may sound low, but for me, I don't really use nicotine pouches, so anything at a 3 or above is one I consider to be a good product.  This is just below that, mainly because it's mint and there's so many mint products out there.  And, I don't really use a lot of mint flavors.  However, it's not a bad product.  I think people who like mint flavors will probably enjoy this one.  It's a pretty well rounded product, and a solid release.
