Nicotine Pouch Strength Breakdown
All nicotine pouches are available in a range of strengths to suit different personal preferences. The number of milligrams per pouch will vary depending on the brand you go for.
We categorize them as:
- 2-3mg (Less Intense)
- 4-6mg (Regular)
- 7-9mg (Strong)
- 10-15mg (Extra Strong)
If you’ve recently switched to nicotine pouches and are unsure what level of intensity to go for, it’s often best to start with less milligrams per pouch to see how your body reacts before gradually increasing the strength (as needed).
Former smokeless tobacco users may prefer a higher concentration (mgs) than people who smoke, since absorbing nicotine orally is different to inhaling it.
Every new product stocked on Northerner undergoes rigorous lab testing to ensure it meets strict product quality and safety requirements. The maximum nicotine pouch strength we’ll sell is capped at 20mg, for instance, which is in line with the Swedish Institute for Standards (SIS/TS 72:2024) and equivalent to an average cigarette.

Discover All Nicotine Pouch Flavors
Flavor is one way of enhancing your experience of a nicotine pouch. You’ll find a variety of flavored and unflavored options to choose from on Northerner, catering to all tastes.
Some of the most popular categories include:
- Mint (e.g. Wintergreen, Spearmint, Peppermint, and Menthol).
- Fruit (e.g. Wild Berry, Mango, Citrus, and more exotic blends).
- US Inspired (e.g. Cinnamon, Coffee, and tobacco-free Tobacco).

Comparing Pouch Formats
When buying your nicotine pouches online, it’s also important to understand the difference in pouch formats since there is some variation in terms of size and style—although all are designed to fit comfortably under your lip.
- Slim is by far the most readily available pouch type you’ll find in the US. They typically measure 1.2” x 0.5”.
- Mini pouches offer a more compact and snug fit around 0.9” x 0.5”.
- Large pouches have a slightly bigger surface area (1.2” x 0.6”) and may be more familiar to consumers of other oral nicotine formats like dip and chew.
All pouches are made from a porous, white material that enables nicotine and flavor absorption via your mouth lining.
Regardless of whether you prefer a moist or dry pouch, they should all have a relatively soft texture that’s pliable and not too stiff. If you ever come across a pouch that’s split, hard, or discolored, don’t use it and dispose of it responsibly.
Of course, there are new pouch innovations hitting the market to be aware of too. For instance, FRE uses Pre-Primed Technology (PPT); Sesh is made from a chewable gum base; and Lucy Breakers features a liquid-filled flavor capsule—all stocked on Northerner.
How to Use Nicotine Pouches
Getting the most out of your nicotine pouch is as easy as 1, 2, 3:
- Pop open your can and grab a fresh pouch.
- Park the pouch comfortably between your top lip and gum, letting the nicotine gradually absorb.
- When you’re ready to remove the pouch, store it in your can’s waste compartment (if it has one) or throw it directly in the trash.
Keep in mind that you should give yourself regular breaks between nicotine pouches and not necessarily replace a pouch straight away. It’s important to listen to your body and pace your nicotine consumption throughout the day. Please use nicotine pouches responsibly.
Benefits of Nicotine Pouches
With scientific advances being made in the field of harm reduction, it’s clear that these days there’s no reason to subject yourself to the known health risks of combustible tobacco.
Nicotine pouches offer an alternative for existing nicotine consumers to use nicotine without the chemicals and toxins that are found in cigarettes and released through combustion.
Please note that nicotine pouches are not an FDA-approved smoking cessation aid, and we do not endorse nicotine pouches as a smoking cessation aid or nicotine replacement therapy. You can, however, read up on FDA-approved smoking cessation aids if you’re trying to quit and looking for more information.
According to our customers, some of the main positives of nicotine pouches include:
- They’re smoke-free. This not only reduces your exposure to toxic chemicals like nitrosamines and tar, but also those around you.
- They contain no traces of tobacco. There are ways to extract nicotine from the tobacco plant or create it synthetically in a lab, so you can enjoy the same nicotine sensation, minus the tobacco leaf.
- There’s plenty of choice. Shop around to find the right combination of flavor, strength, and pouch format to suit your needs.
- Anytime, anywhere convenience. You can use nicotine pouches in the office, on the road, or out in public where smoking and vaping are generally prohibited. You won’t have to deal with lingering odors following you around all day either.
- They’re hands-free. There’s no need to disrupt your routine when it comes to nicotine pouches—once under your lip, they fit seamlessly into whatever you’re doing.
- They’re mess-free. Pouches produce minimal spit, and most brands have a built-in waste compartment, so you don’t even need to be close to a trash can to dispose of them.
- They’re hassle-free. Lost your lighter? Or forgot to charge your vape? With nicotine pouches, there’s no extra equipment required. All you need to remember is the pocket-friendly can and you’re good to go.
With these benefits in mind, it’s also important to remember that nicotine is an addictive substance, so you should always be mindful of your intake and use pouches responsibly.
We encourage responsible use of nicotine pouches by adults only. Remove the pouch immediately and drink plenty of water if you start to experience any dizziness, nausea, or headaches.
