Glick vs Rush: which nicotine pouch should you buy?

Choosing between Glick and Rush usually comes down to strength band, pouch format and what is actually in stock. All three are things we can answer directly, because both brands are ours to ship.

Side by side

Strength

When it comes to strength, both Glick and Rush offer a consistent experience, with each pouch containing 4 mg of nicotine. This means that if you're choosing between these two brands, other factors such as flavour and price will guide your decision rather than potency differences.

For those who prioritize flavour variety, Glick offers a broader range, including unique options like Blackcurrant and Passionfruit. Glick's Ice Mint Light Series stands out as an affordable mint option at CA$12.00 per can, making it a cost-effective choice for mint enthusiasts. If you're drawn to fruity flavours, Glick Citrine Grape Light Series offers a full-bodied grape taste, although it comes at a higher price point of CA$14.00 per can.

Rush, on the other hand, is a solid choice for those seeking a balance of mint and fruit at a more uniform price. At CA$12.00 per can, RUSH Mango Ice Light and RUSH Watermelon Ice Light combine fruity sweetness with a subtle mint undertone, offering a refreshing experience without stretching your budget. Choose Rush if you prefer a straightforward pricing structure and enjoy fruit-infused mint options.

• Light — 1.5–4 mg per pouch (177 cans listed, in stock or not). Where to start. Enough to feel, mild enough to sit with for an hour.
• Normal — 4.2–6 mg per pouch (76 cans listed, in stock or not). The everyday strength — enough to feel without taking over the afternoon.
• Strong — 6.3–12 mg per pouch (259 cans listed, in stock or not). A firm kick and a real tingle. Not a first pouch.
• Extra Strong — 12.5–20 mg per pouch (96 cans listed, in stock or not). Heavy hitters for a tolerance that is already built.
• Super Strong — 22.2–30 mg per pouch (70 cans listed, in stock or not). Serious doses, for a tolerance that is already well established.
• Extreme — 32.5–50 mg per pouch (70 cans listed, in stock or not). The highest doses we list. Far above any Canadian-authorized product.
