Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg)

About Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) nicotine pouches

Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) is built around mint. On the taste scales it sits at 2/10 for fruit, 6/10 for mint and 6/10 for sting — no real fruit sweetness, a clear mint note, and a noticeable tingle.

Nicotine is 8 mg per pouch, which is a strong strength. That is a firm dose better suited to regular users than to first-timers.

It is made by Ministry of Snus. Like everything we stock it is tobacco free — a white pouch that sits under the lip, leaves no stain and needs nowhere to spit.

What are Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) nicotine pouches?

Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) is a tobacco-free nicotine pouch from Ace, sold here in the slim format.

The slim format is long and narrow, so it lies along the gum line rather than bunching up. It is one of 12 Ace listings we stock; the rest of the range is on the Ace page.

Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) flavour profile

Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) tastes of cool mint.

Against the 163 cans on our shelf with a measured fact sheet it is sweeter than 11% of them and cooler than 66%. The cold arrives first and the flavour settles in behind it — a morning-and-between-tasks profile rather than an after-dinner one.

The closest thing to it on our shelf is 4NX Mint (6 mg as labelled) — near enough identical on all three meters.

Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) effects and strength

Each Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) pouch holds 8 mg of nicotine.

The tingle under the lip is noticeable — sharper than 78% of them. Menthol and flavour make that bite rather than the dose, and it settles in a few minutes.

Keep one in for 30 to 60 minutes; most of what a pouch has to give comes out early.

How to use Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg)

1. 1

   Open the can

   Twist the lid off and take out a single pouch. Close the lid again straight away; an open can dries out faster than anything else you can do to it.

2. 2

   Put it under your lip

   Tuck the pouch flat between your upper lip and gum, off to one side. It should sit still and out of sight. Do not chew it and do not swallow it — Ace x Cool Mint (8 mg) is designed to stay put and release on its own.

3. 3

   Leave it in

   Expect a tingle in the first minute or two; that is normal and it settles. A slim pouch is usually done in 30 to 60 minutes, and you can move it around or take it out whenever you want.

4. 4

   Bin it when you are done

   Take the pouch out and put it in the bin — many cans have a sealed compartment in the lid for exactly this. Never flush one; it does not break down and it will block a drain.
