Velo Minty Lemon Nicotine Pouches

Minty Lemon is the sharpest of the Velo citrus pouches, built on lemon rather than orange or lime. It arrives as a slim can of 20 pouches, tobacco free, made by BAT, in one 10mg strength, and it works well for anyone who finds the fruit flavours too sweet to use all day.

What Minty Lemon tastes like

Velo describe lemon and peppermint, and the two share the work evenly. Lemon gives a clean, slightly tart opening, peppermint follows with a cool finish, and the result reads more like a mint pouch with citrus in it than a lemon sweet. Velo Orange Ice sits in the same citrus and mint family but is rounder and sweeter, where Minty Lemon stays sharp.

Reading the dots on a Velo can

Velo mark strength with dots rather than numbers. Under the flavour name sits a row of six dots, and the filled ones give you the reading: two for 6mg, three for the 8mg to 10mg band, four for 10.9mg, five for 14mg and six for 17mg. Since Velo never print a milligram figure on the can, and never publish the scale, the dots are all you have to go on. Minty Lemon is built at 10mg, so the can in front of you shows 3 filled dots.

Which strength should I choose?

Minty Lemon is built at 10mg only. That is 14.3mg/g of nicotine, shown as 3 filled dots, in a can weighing 14g. Ten milligrams suits a regular user, and the tartness makes the strength feel a little more present than it does in the sweeter fruits. The rest of wider Velo range covers everything from two dots up to six, so there is room to move in either direction later.

How to use Velo nicotine pouches

1. Slide one pouch out of the can and sit it under your top lip.
2. Let it rest there. Do not chew it, and do not swallow it at any point.
3. You may feel a tingle early on, which passes as the pouch settles.
4. Velo say to dispose of each pouch after 30 minutes of use, so take it out at the half hour.

Velo Minty Lemon Nicotine Pouches FAQs

Do these contain tobacco?

No, they are tobacco free. The contents are plant based bulking material, pharmaceutical grade nicotine polymer, food grade flavourings, sweeteners with no added sugar, and water.

How long do you keep a pouch in?

Velo say to dispose of each pouch after 30 minutes of use, so treat half an hour as the limit rather than a target.

How many dots does the can show?

Three, which is the 10mg build at 14.3mg/g. Other dot counts are in our pouch range.

Is it sour?

Tart rather than sour. The lemon has bite, but the peppermint rounds it off so it does not become uncomfortable.

Safety and age restriction
