Tobacco & Nicotine Free

Tobacco & Nicotine Free

Tobacco & nicotine-free snus brands use herbs and flavors to create different tasting experiences similar to regular snus. Brands include VELO Zero, KickUp, Onico Snus, and Qvitt Snus. Some swap nicotine and tobacco for caffeine and ginseng, while others do not, offering a “cleaner” experience.

What’s inside nicotine and tobacco-free pouches?

What makes up each pouch is one of the most important factors when picking a product, as it can massively impact the experience. Without tobacco and nicotine, these pouches offer a different but familiar experience to the real deal, aiding those trying to reduce their nicotine and tobacco consumption.

However, some brands differ in what is inside their portions. Some replace the nicotine with different substances, and others do not. Moreover, the contents in specific brands are more similar to tobacco than others, suiting different user preferences.

Caffeine Pouches: The new and emerging nicotine and tobacco-free pouch

Caffeine pouches are sachets containing plant fibers, flavorings, and caffeine. One brand that focuses its range around caffeine is WAKEY Energy Pouches, which hold from 50 mg to 100 mg of caffeine per pouch. Other brands use guarana and other energy-boosting substances, like ginseng and vitamins and minerals.

  • Kickup - the original “caffeine pouch” containing guarana, ginseng, vitamins, and minerals, providing a naturally energizing experience.
  • Qvitt Snus - is for the ex-snuser, as it contains ginseng and green tea, similar to the consistency of tobacco while delivering an energy boost.

By replacing nicotine with energy, these “caffeine pouches” provide a sensation that helps you combat nicotine cravings. There are other options if energy is not what you need.

Are Coffee Pouches The Same As Caffeine Pouches?

Some may confuse coffee and caffeine pouches as coffee is usually correlated with caffeine and some users may mix the two. However, there are key differences between the product, some of which include:

  • Coffee Pouches are coffee-flavored nicotine pouches.
  • Caffeine pouches are tobacco and nicotine-free pouches that contain caffeine.

In turn, if you purchase Coffee ZYNs, don’t expect a burst of energy from caffeine, as they only contain nicotine and coffee flavorings.

Others keep it simple with no additives, just flavor

Certain brands have removed the tobacco and nicotine and let the flavor do the talking, allowing you to remove nicotine from your consumption without replacing it with other substances.

  • VELO Zero - uses familiar minty flavor profiles, seen in VELO nicotine pouches, to ease the transition to nicotine-free.
  • Onico Snus - is for the ex-snusers, as it has familiar tasting experiences and feels under the lip.

The tobacco and nicotine-free flavor profiles

Across all the nicotine and tobacco-free brands of snus, there is an array of tasting experiences, ensuring all preferences are covered. These include:

  • Mint - the most popular tasting experience, one of the best being VELO Ice Cool Zero.
  • Licorice - a loved or hated flavor profile. Qvitt Salmiak is for those who love it, with a balanced licorice-tasting experience with salty notes.
  • Tobacco ‘esque’ - to make the ex-snusers feel at home, brands have captured a tobacco-tasting experience. One of the best is Onico White Portion, with its snus-like aroma and hints of pepper and citrus.

These linked products above are some of the tastiest for each flavor category, giving you a great place to start your tobacco and nicotine-free journey.
