Velo Orange Ice Nicotine Pouches

Orange Ice is a straightforward citrus pouch with a cool finish, and it makes an easy first step for anyone who finds plain mint too much. Slim format, 20 pouches per can, tobacco free and made by BAT, in a single 10mg strength.

What Orange Ice tastes like

The flavour is described as orange and mint, and that is what comes through. A sweet, juicy orange sits at the front with a light mint cool behind it rather than a hard freeze, so it reads like orange squash more than peel. Velo Orange Spark is the other orange in the range, a zesty version at a higher strength, so the two suit quite different sessions.

Specifications

Reading the dots on a Velo can

Velo do not print a milligram figure anywhere on the can. The only strength marking is a row of six dots under the flavour name, and the number of filled dots tells you where the pouch sits. Two filled dots means 6mg, three covers 8mg to 10mg, four is 10.9mg, five is 14mg and six is 17mg. Velo do not publish that scale themselves, so it is worth learning if you shop by sight. Orange Ice is built at 10mg, so the can in front of you shows 3 filled dots.

Which strength should I choose?

Only one strength is built for Orange Ice, 10mg, which measures 14.3mg/g and shows 3 filled dots on the tin. Three filled dots is a moderate marking and a fair match for someone using pouches daily without wanting a strong one. If it turns out lighter than you want, the four, five and six dot cans in Velo pouch range step up in clear stages. The 10mg can weighs 14g.

How to use Velo nicotine pouches

1. Take one pouch from the can and settle it between your top lip and your gum.
2. Leave it in place. Do not chew it and do not swallow it.
3. Expect a tingle in the first minute or so, which settles down as the pouch works.
4. Velo say to dispose of each pouch after 30 minutes of use, so take it out by then and bin it.
