Nordic Spirit Melon Fresh Moist Nicotine Pouches

Melon Fresh keeps things simple: a single nicotine level and a moist pouch that gets going quickly. JTI put 20 slim pouches in every can at 0.65g each, tobacco free, with the nicotine fixed at 6mg per pouch. That is the lowest level they make, which is most of the reason people pick this can up first.

What Melon Fresh tastes like

Melon here is soft, watery and sweet, with a fresh finish that keeps it light rather than sugary. Being moist, it comes through almost as soon as the pouch is in place. The dry alternative is Nordic Spirit Watermelon, which takes longer to develop and runs a longer session, so the two are worth trying side by side if melon is your flavour.

Moist and Dry explained

Melon Fresh is on the moist side of the brand. Moist pouches have moisture added, so flavour release is near immediate, nicotine absorption is faster and drip is moderate, with sessions of around 25 to 35 minutes. Dry pouches use minimal moisture and behave differently: gentler and more controlled, a few minutes before the flavour develops, very low drip and 30 to 60 minute sessions, which JTI describe as 15 to 20 percent longer. Neither is better on paper. Moist is for a quick start, dry is for a long quiet one.

Which Nordic Spirit strength should I choose?

There is one option here, 6mg per pouch, which works out at 9.2mg per gram. That is the lowest strength Nordic Spirit produce, so this is a reasonable first can if you have never used pouches, and it is easy to use repeatedly through a day without it becoming too much. If a full session at 6mg leaves you wanting more nicotine rather than more flavour, the next steps in the Nordic Spirit range are 9mg at 14mg per gram and 11mg at 17.2mg per gram.

How to use Nordic Spirit nicotine pouches

1. Twist the can open and take out one pouch.
2. Put it under your upper lip, off to one side, so the flat face rests against the gum.
3. Leave it there for up to 30 minutes, which is the session length JTI give. Do not chew the pouch and do not swallow it.
4. Take it out and put it in the used pouch compartment in the lid, then empty that into a bin.

They should not be used by anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding. Nicotine pouches are not risk free. Keep the can out of reach of children and pets.
