Today, we're going to be talking about
Grinds Coffee Pouches! While I don't drink coffee myself, I enjoy coffee flavored products, and I've enjoyed Grinds for quite a while now! As you all know, I'm a snus guy, and I love tobacco. However, I know there's some who are looking to quit, and Grinds is a good option for people like that. My wife isn't a tobacco user, but she uses Grinds all the time because she loves the quick pick me up it gives her in the morning. In this review, we're going to be talking about
Grinds: Spearmint. The flavor description for this one says: "
Classic spearmint flavor combined with coffee". Each can of Grinds weighs 18 grams and contains 18 pouches. Each individual pouch has 25mg of caffeine per pouch.
If you're not familiar with Grinds, I'll explain. Grinds does not contain any tobacco or nicotine. It is actually a pouch containing coffee! Grinds also contains Guarana, B-Vitamins and Taurine. Grinds is a spit-free, and the saliva is safe to swallow. They say you can spit with it, but you won't absorb as much energy. Grinds advises that the best way to absorb the energy from the pouch is to actually swallow the saliva. So, while you can spit if you choose to, you get more effect from Grinds if you don't!
Again, I'm not a coffee drinker, but I enjoy coffee flavored products. With Grinds, I tend to enjoy the flavored products most. The aroma of this one is a smooth, sweet aroma of spearmint with hints of coffee. I dig peppermint with coffee, but wasn't sure how I'd feel about spearmint. Surprisingly, it works pretty well. The pouches are quite moist, moderately soft, and comfortable under the lip. They have a solid drip to them, and a quick release of flavor! The flavor is a sweet, present taste of spearmint. It's refreshing, and paired with a taste of black coffee in the background. I don't drink much caffeine, so in terms of the effect I feel a pretty solid jolt of energy from it. In terms of flavor longevity, I find it to last around 40-45 minutes, on average! A pretty solid amount of time.
Rating and Final Thoughts
I wasn't sure how well spearmint would mix with coffee, but it actually worked pretty well together. The balance of the spearmint and coffee was pretty enjoyable. This one rated at 3.17/5 for me. While I'm a snus guy, and someone who enjoys tobacco, I still enjoy these. Yes, they can help people quit dip. But they also have a place with those of us who don't plan on quitting. And even Mrs. Snubie agrees, they're also great for people who aren't tobacco users who are looking for a quick energy jolt.
If you want to try out their products, you can order from their website,
GetGrinds.com, but they also have
a store locator. They have Grinds all over Arkansas, where I live, so it shouldn't be too hard to find locally, either!
