SYX Original Light

About SYX Original nicotine pouches

Reach for SYX Original Light when you want a smooth, easy-going hit of tobacco without smoke or tobacco. Each can holds 20 slim, all-white pouches that sit comfortably and won't stain your teeth. Delivering 2.8 mg of nicotine per pouch, it's a solid pick for newcomers and everyday users alike.

SYX Original Light is built around tobacco. On the taste scales it sits at 3/10 for fruit, 2/10 for mint and 2/10 for sting — a light touch of fruit, almost no mint, and barely any tingle.

The can carries 20 pouches in the slim format, 14 grams of product in total. Nicotine is 2.8 mg per pouch, or 4 mg/g, a light strength. That is one of the lowest doses on this shelf.

It is made by CBI. Like everything we stock it is tobacco free — a white pouch that sits under the lip, contains no tobacco leaf and needs nowhere to spit.

What are SYX Original nicotine pouches?

SYX Original is a tobacco-free nicotine pouch from SYX, sold here in the slim format at about 0.7 g a pouch, 20 to a can.

The slim format is long and narrow, so it lies along the gum line rather than bunching up.

SYX Original flavour profile

SYX Original tastes of a dry, tobacco-style profile.

Against the 1162 cans on our shelf with a measured fact sheet it is sweeter than 18% of them and cooler than 25%. A plain, low-flavour can — closer to an unflavoured pouch than to anything on the sweet or cold ends of the shelf.

SYX Original effects and strength

Each SYX Original pouch holds 2.8 mg of nicotine, or 4 mg per gram — stronger per gram than 6% of what we stock.

The tingle under the lip is barely there — sharper than 10% 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 SYX Original

1. 1

   Open the can

   Twist the lid off and take out a single pouch — there are 20 in a can. 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 — SYX Original 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.
