Pablo Exclusive Frosted Ice Nicotine Pouches

Pablo Exclusive Frosted Ice is the coldest thing the brand does, a heavy cooling pouch holding 30mg of nicotine each. A can gives you 20 slim all white pouches, moist so they start working straight away, and the product is tobacco free from top to bottom. NGP Europe produce it in Denmark.

What Frosted Ice tastes like

This one is about the freeze more than any particular flavour. The cooling arrives quickly and spreads wide, numbing and clean, with only a light mint character sitting behind it. It is the sort of pouch you use when you want the cold sensation itself rather than something you would describe as tasty.

Anyone who finds it too stark should try Pablo Exclusive Frosted Mint, which keeps a cold edge but gives you a proper mint flavour with it. The two sit next to each other in our Pablo collection.

Why the can says 50mg when each pouch is 30mg

Plenty of buyers see 50mg on the front of a Pablo can and assume that is what a pouch delivers. It is not, and the difference is large. 50mg is a per gram concentration. Each of these pouches weighs 0.6g, so working it out means 50 times 0.6, which equals 30mg of nicotine per pouch. That is what you are taking. There is no 50mg pouch in the tin and there never was, though 30mg on its own is enough to sit right at the top of the market.

Who these are for

Do not let the simple cooling profile fool you into thinking this is an easy pouch. At 30mg a pouch it is one of the strongest products on sale anywhere, and it is not somewhere to start. Only use it if you already run at 20mg a pouch or higher and you know exactly how you respond. Should it feel like too much, take it out immediately instead of pushing through. The step down we recommend is our Killa range at 13.2mg a pouch, with Killa Cold Mint a sensible landing place for the same cold mint feel. Other options sit in our pouch category.

How to use Pablo nicotine pouches

1. Take a pouch from the can and slide it in behind your top lip.
2. Leave it completely alone once placed. Never chew it and never swallow it.
3. The first minute brings a tingle, which with this cooling and this strength is very obvious.
4. Lift it out and dispose of it when you are done. Up to about 30 minutes is standard, and considerably less until you know how it affects you.

Pablo Exclusive Frosted Ice Nicotine Pouches FAQs

Is Frosted Ice a type of snus?

No. The word snus follows these products around online, but snus is made with tobacco leaf and oral tobacco is not sold legally in the UK. These are tobacco free pouches, and that is the reason they are available.

How many pouches in a can?

There are 20 pouches per can.

How long should I keep it in?

No longer than around half an hour, and cut it short if the cold becomes uncomfortable.

Is 30mg too strong for me?

Unless you already use pouches at 20mg a pouch or above, yes, and you would be better off building up gradually on something lighter.

What is the tingle I feel?

It is the nicotine and the pouch acting on your gum, and with a pouch this strong it registers clearly in the first minute.

Safety and age restriction

Nicotine is addictive. These pouches are for adults of 18 and over who use nicotine already, and they are not for non smokers or anyone trying nicotine for the first time. They should not be used if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, and they are not risk free. A specific word on strength, since 30mg per pouch is extreme by any standard and can cause dizziness, sweating or sickness in an unaccustomed user. Keep them away from children and pets, and remove the pouch and stop at once if you feel unwell.
