Nick & Johnny Red Hot

Nick & Johnny Red Hot combines the clear taste of red chili with a robust tobacco flavor, as well as cinnamon, cloves and a hint of orange to produce a strong flavor. With a nicotine content of 15mg/g, this is an extra strong snus that is likely to be favored by the most seasoned of users as this range averages around 40% more nicotine than most snus brands.

The red hot variety comes in a large and original portion. This means the pouches are moist and there is a greater surface area between the gum and the sachet to provide a quicker release of flavor and nicotine. The sachets are plumper than slimmer versions, which makes them more visible under the lip.

The Nick & Johnny line is manufactured by Swedish Match and it was released in Norway in 2006. It is known for its edgier reputation, which is reflected in the packaging designs, and its popularity was such that it captured 2% of market share within its first year.
