Learn how strength levels are measured and what they mean.
How Nicotine Strength in Pouches Is Measured
With VELO nicotine pouches, strength is measured in nicotine mg per pouch. Sometimes, for some nicotine pouches, could be mg per gram. There are variations across brands. “Lowest” and “strongest” refer to the nicotine content of the pouch, with “Lowest” containing less nicotine per pouch and “Strongest” containing more. These terms refer to nicotine content only and not to product quality.
What are low-strength nicotine pouches?
Low strength nicotine pouches are those with lower milligrams of nicotine per pouch. VELO has a low-strength range of nicotine pouches, called our Mellow range. This range of pouches have 4mg or 6mg of nicotine per pouch. For adult nicotine users, it’s important to know what the strength level means and understand the different before choosing.
Choosing a Nicotine Strength
VELO nicotine pouches are available in different nicotine strengths. Nicotine pouch strength is about personal preference and tolerance. The effects of nicotine will vary between individuals, and therefore different strength levels may not be suitable for all users.
Adult nicotine users may choose different strengths depending on:
- previous nicotine experience
- smoking or vaping habits
- flavour preference
- personal comfort
First-time nicotine pouch users may prefer the VELO Mellow range or low strength range, before moving to stronger options.

Using Nicotine Pouches for the First Time
If you are an existing adult nicotine user new to nicotine pouches, it is normal to notice:
- a tingling sensation under the lip
- gradual nicotine release
- flavour intensity during the first few minutes
- a comfortable fit under the upper lip
Most users find the sensation becomes more comfortable after a few minutes.
A new VELO user may prefer:
- starting with a lower nicotine strength
- using the pouch for a shorter duration initially
- trying milder flavour profiles first
Nicotine pouches should feel comfortable once positioned correctly.
Feel the Burn*
After placing the pouch, you may feel a tingling sensation. This is normal and usually means nicotine and flavour are being released. For first-time adult nicotine pouch users, the tingling sensation may feel stronger during the first few minutes before gradually fading. That burn* will give way to long-lasting flavour. Higher strength nicotine pouches may affect the intensity of the tingling sensation. Experienced adult nicotine users may prefer stronger nicotine strengths for a more intense experience.
*By burn we mean a heat and tingle sensation on the gum/in the mouth when the product is used.
