VELO is truly suitable for all nicotine pouch users, and with its manufacturers being British American Tobacco, the quality isn’t even in question.
VELO Nicotine Pouches - The Most Popular Brand in Europe
There are many brands of nicotine pouches, with well over 30 stocked on Snusdirect, providing plenty of options for customers but why is it that VELO finds its way into many user rotations? It is one of the very few brands that evolved from a tobacco pouch, had two separate names, and has undergone a rebrand, evolving every step of the way. This British American Tobacco brand was released in 2018 and is of the highest quality, has vast variation, and comes packaged in colourful and eye-catching cans. Moreover, it is the brand most commonly found in shops nearby, increasing the consumer's familiarity with them.
What Sizes Are VELO Pouches?
VELO pouches come in two sizes. Mini and slim. More of its products come in slim sizes because of its popularity amongst users. However, Mini still has multiple options for those wanting something more delicate and comfortable. In terms of actual sizes and the experience provided, there is a difference between the two.
- Mini pouches weigh 0.5 grams and are more squarer than slim portions, usually around 0.8 mm shorter.
- Slim pouches are longer but still narrow, providing an ergonomic shape. Each weighs around 0.7 grams.
Both sizes are built and engineered to be comfortable under the lip and provide an effortless fit. But mini portions will perform better in that instance. On the other hand, slim has more content and is usually stronger.
VELO Mini - Comfortably Discreet
Mini nicotine pouches are not invasive but comfortable, and unnoticeable to others, making them a suitable fit for those prioritising mouthfeel and privacy. Moreover, most are low strength appealing to those reducing their nicotine consumption and the can size is smaller making their transportation more convenient. There are many VELO mini pouches to purchase on Snusdirect, some of the more popular including:
What Are the Best VELO Flavours?
Many VELO flavours are available on Snusdirect, covering many categories, especially those more popular, including mint, fruit, liquorice, citrus, and dual profiles, merging flavours. The more popular products within its line are:
- VELO Crispy Peppermint

Mint flavours are a clear favourite amongst users, but those wanting something more vibrant and sweet should try VELO Breezy Mango Slim and its tropical-tasting experience.
What Are The Different Sensations on Offer?
As well as flavour profiles, sensations are added, elevating the experience. The three different sensations are:
- Cooling is popular among many brands and is supplied with mint profiles, especially those with menthol tones.
- Warming isn’t as popular and accompanies chilli notes, most being dual profiles, combining hot chilli with citrus, fruits, cinnamon, or mango.
- Tingling is the new sensation on the block, present in VELO Orange Spark, adding another dimension to the experience.
How Potent Are VELO Strengths?
Strengths are scored by the brand's dot system, which goes up to 6 dots. The strongest being 6 out of 6 and the weakest being 1 out of 6. In terms of nicotine per pouch for each of the dot strengths, you can expect:
- Mellow - 4 mg
- Regular - 6 mg
- Strong - 8 to 10 mg
- Extra Strong - 10.9 mg
- ULTRA - 14 mg

Whether you have a high or low nicotine tolerance, want an intense or weakened nicotine sensation, or are looking to reduce your nicotine consumption, there is a product within this range that can accommodate your requirements.
MAX Strength for Experienced Users
Many brands supply Super Strong Nicotine Pouches and VELO’s is its MAX range, VELO Mighty Peppermint 17mg. It is a pouch that combines a robust mint-tasting experience with a high nicotine concentration, culminating in an intense nicotine pouch experience. In turn, for those accustomed to extreme strengths, it is a suitable brand.
Is VELO The Best Nicotine Pouch Brand?
It is one of the best nicotine pouches on Snusdirect. It competes amongst some of the best brands like On!, ZYN, White Fox, Skruf Superwhite, and ACE, but more often than not, this brand comes out on top, especially in Europe and the UK. Some of the reasons why we at Snusdirect believe it is one of the best brands include:
- An unmatched flavour profile range.
- One of the most accommodating nicotine strength ranges.
- Brilliant manufacturing quality.
- Intriguing product names and packaging.
FAQ’s About VELO Pouches
Is VELO Snus?
Snus is the name given to tobacco pouches and this brand of nicotine pouch and nicotine pouches do not contain tobacco. In turn, it is not snus. However, many users across Europe and the UK do use the word snus to describe nicotine pouches, causing slight confusion. So, bear this in mind.

Where to Buy VELO Near Me?
Unlike other brands, VELO is available in many supermarkets, local shops, and petrol stations across Europe and the UK. It can also be bought online from “e-stores” like us at Snusdirect. There are plenty of options when considering where to buy them.
Why Have Its Products Changed Names?
You may be looking at some of the products and not recognising names or looking for your favourite that you can’t seem to find. Well, a rebrand of this much-loved line has taken place, meaning names and packaging have changed. For example, Freeze is now Crispy Peppermint and Easy Mint is Spiffy Spearmint. These changes are explained in the product descriptions and the blog post linked above.
VELO Vs Nordic Spirit, How Do They Compare?
As you may have noticed, Nordic Spirit is not available at Snusdirect. It is a popular brand across Europe and the UK but where it prospers so does VELO. Many flavours are available in both ranges but VELO provides a greater range of nicotine strengths, enabling it to meet more consumer preferences. However, where you may notice a difference is the longevity of the experience. Nordic Spirit is renowned for providing an hour-long nicotine release because of its drier moisture level. VELO is slightly moister, offering a faster nicotine and flavour release, which is more desirable for some users. It comes down to which you prefer.
VELO Nicotine Pouches, How To Use Them?
Every brand of nicotine pouch is used the same as one another. All there is to do is pick a portion, lift your upper lip and tuck the sachet underneath it, against the gum. After, enjoy the nicotine and flavour release. Once finished, remove the pouch and place it in the catch lid to dispose of later.
Is VELO Nicotine Tobacco-Derived?
Yes, it is. Tobacco-derived nicotine is nicotine extracted from the tobacco plant. It is made possible by many different processes, some of which include: Solvent Extraction, Steam Distillation, Maceration, Acid Extraction, and Supercritical CO2 Distilation. These processes are performed on tobacco that has been shredded or turned into dust. Afterwards, the samples must be purified to remove any contaminants present. Then it is quality checked and ready to use.
