Kuma Wintergreen (11 mg)

About Kuma Wintergreen (11 mg) nicotine pouches

Kuma Wintergreen (11 mg) is built around wintergreen. On the taste scales it sits at 2/10 for fruit, 6/10 for mint and 8/10 for sting — no real fruit sweetness, a clear mint note, and a sharp sting.

Nicotine is 11 mg per pouch, or 20 mg/g, which is a strong strength. That is a heavy dose meant for experienced users only.

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

How to use Kuma Wintergreen (11 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 — Kuma Wintergreen (11 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 pouch is usually done inside an hour, 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.
