The highest mg snus available on Northerner often comes from these brands: 

• Juice Head nicotine pouches: This US-based brand offers fruit-forward pouches in 6mg and 14mg.
• Velo snus: Velo is recognised for their mint-flavoured collection of high strength snus.
• ZYN pouches: A brand known for the wide variety of strengths and flavours available.
• Loop snus: This Swedish brand specialises in novel flavour combinations.
• White Fox nicotine pouches: Known for their high-strength mint pouches. 

Some brands produce nicotine pouches with strengths above 20mg, such as 50mg snus or 100mg snus. 

Some of the world’s strongest nicotine pouches are 150mg snus or 100mg snus, but Northerner does not stock nicotine pouches above 20mg.  

We follow the recommendations by the Swedish Institute for Standards (SIS/TS 72:2024) guidelines, which advises a strength level of 20mg for nicotine pouches.

Some brands use the term “hyper strong snus” to refer to their products.  

For example, these are two “hyper strong” products on Northerner. They have different levels of nicotine (mg per pouch): 

• Après Blueberry Hypèr Strong (11mg)
• Loop Habanero Mint Hyper Strong (15.6mg) 

“Hyper strong” is used by brands to indicate the highest mg snus products within their portfolio. It is not a reference to a standardised level of nicotine content. 

You can experience various snus side effects if you use a pouch strength that is too strong for you, especially if you are a new user.

Some brands use a dot system on their packaging to indicate strength level.  

• More filled dots mean stronger nicotine pouches within a brand’s range.
• Brands often use a 4-dot scale, but high mg snus may use 5- or 6-dot scale.
• A 5-dot snus typically contains 13—16mg, which corresponds with Northerner’s Ultra Strong category. 

Dot systems vary between brands, so the number of dots cannot be used to compare nicotine levels directly.  

These examples of 5 dot snus show the variation in nicotine strength: 

6 dot snus represents the strongest snus available on Northerner. 

Typically, these high strength nicotine pouches contain 16.1—20 mg of nicotine.  

Some 6-dot snus products may exceed this level, but Northerner does not sell nicotine pouches stronger than 20 mg.

These examples of 6 dot snus show the variation in nicotine strength: 

• KUMA Wintergreen contains 11mg
• Velo Freezing Peppermint contains 17mg
• ELF Nicotine Pouches Blueberry Raspberry contains 20mg

The difference between 5 dot and 6 dot snus depends on the brand. 

Typically, 6 dot snus is stronger than 5 dot snus, but because the dot system is not standardised, you should always check the can to verify its actual nicotine content. 

The table below explains the typical nicotine range in 5 and 6 dot snus. It also shows example products and their variation in nicotine strengths.
