The Favorite Flavors for Nicotine Lozenges
Similar to the flavor preferences to nicotine pouches, mint emerged as a favorite for nicotine lozenges. However, there was a larger range here, with citrus, berry, and crema flavors also being mentioned as preferences by consumers - again indicating close similarity to nicotine pouches.
Again there was a bit more of a range of preferred flavors in the nicotine toothpick category. Although mint still appeared, it shared the spotlight with tobacco and cinnamon.
Although mint seems to hold the vast majority of tobacco and tobacco-free users alike, there are a plethora of different flavors to try out. The fun thing about different flavors is also how they are paired - as chili of cinnamon snus may pair very well with coffee of hot chocolate, while a coffee flavored nicotine pouch may be the perfect palate cleanser at the end of a meal.
