If you search for Velo strength, you will often find that "Strong" and "Ultra Strong" mean different things depending on the format. This guide shows how to read the labels and translate them into milligrams of nicotine per pouch, so you can compare Velo with other brands. All values come from our product pages, updated on 9 November 2026. The text is written for adults.

Velo strength: label or mg per pouch?
Velo describes strength with words such as Light, Medium, Strong, X-Strong and Ultra Strong, sometimes together with a dot rating. The words are a good first guide, but what you can compare between products is mg per pouch. An example: Velo Crispy Peppermint Mini Strong has 8 mg per pouch, while Velo Crispy Peppermint Strong in the standard format has 10 mg. Same word, different numbers.
That is why you should always look at the mg value on the product page. A more general overview is in our article on nicotine pouch strengths.

How to read Velo's strength levels
Mini and Medium (4 to 6 mg) are the milder part of the range. Here you find Sour Lime Mini, Green Spearmint Medium and Tropical Mango Medium. The standard level (8 to 10.9 mg) covers most of it, from Dark Blackcurrant to the Strong variants Mango Flame and Blue Raspberry. X-Strong and Ultra Strong (10.9 to 14 mg) are for experienced nicotine users, and the highest in our Velo range is Freezing Peppermint Ultra Strong at 14 mg per pouch (20 mg/g).
Note that Freezing Peppermint X-Strong (10.9 mg) is only slightly above Strong (10 mg). The difference between the labels is smaller than the words suggest.
Velo compared with other strengths
To put the numbers in perspective: ZYN Slim 2 has 6 mg per pouch and Slim 5 has 13.5 mg, so they sit in the same area as Velo Medium and Ultra Strong. KILLA Extra Strong is around 13 mg per pouch and ICEBERG Extreme is 30 mg. To stay low, Velo Medium is a good starting point, while Iceberg is far above Velo's highest level. Read more about flavours in our article on the best Velo flavours.
Choose by flavour too
Strength is only half the choice. Mint: Crispy Peppermint, Bright Peppermint, Green Spearmint and Freezing Peppermint. Fruit: Tropical Mango, Blue Raspberry, Orange Spark, Dark Blackcurrant, Ruby Berry and Dark Cherry Mini. Distinctive: Salty Liquorice and Zesty Elderflower. Start with a flavour you already like, then pick the level that fits your habits.
How to use a nicotine pouch
Place one pouch under your upper lip and leave it for 20 to 40 minutes. Do not use several pouches at once, and keep the can cool and out of reach of children. Always start with the lowest suitable strength.

Tips for comparing strengths
Three habits make comparing easier. First, always read mg per pouch on the product page rather than relying on the word in the product name. Second, change only one variable at a time: if you try a new brand, keep the strength similar, and if you try a new level, keep the flavour you know. Third, remember that flavour affects how strong a pouch feels. Mint flavours often feel sharper than fruity ones at the same mg.
A simple way to plan an order is to pick one familiar level and add one step up and one step down as a test. That way you learn your preferred range without buying a large amount of something that turns out to be too strong or too mild.
