About Black Buffalo Mint
These pouches deliver a clean mint character built on peppermint and spearmint, with only a light sweetness rather than the heavy sugariness found in some mint pouches. The cooling effect is moderate and even, and the flavor stays noticeable for roughly 25 to 35 minutes before fading. The pouch format is meant to sit in the lip and be packed like a traditional dip, with a moist, leafy texture created from cured green leaves rather than tobacco leaf.
Each can has a net weight of 0.82 oz (23.25 g). The product contains no nicotine and no tobacco, and uses ingredients such as salt, propylene glycol, ethyl alcohol, sucralose, saccharin, and natural and artificial flavors. All ingredients are food-grade. The experience is focused on the physical routine of dipping: packing a lip, feeling the moisture, and getting a familiar burn without nicotine. It suits people who want the behavioral side of dip but not nicotine, and it is not positioned as an energy or focus product.
