If you search for snus mg, you probably want to know how much nicotine is in one pouch and how to tell a mild product from a very strong one. The answer is not on the front of the can: brands use words like "light", "strong" or "extreme", and numbers like 1 to 5, that mean different things from brand to brand. This guide gives you the one number that compares everything, milligrams of nicotine per pouch, with real products from the SnusCore shop on each step of the ladder, from 1.5 mg to 43 mg. It is written for adults in Greece who are choosing a pouch, so check current local rules before ordering.

Snus mg: mg per pouch vs mg per gram
Two figures appear on labels and product pages:
- mg per pouch: the nicotine in one pouch. This is the number to compare.
- mg per gram (mg/g): the concentration of the filling. It depends on how heavy the pouch is, so two products with the same mg/g can have different mg per pouch.
A third number sometimes confuses people: mg per can. A can with 20 pouches and a can with 27 pouches cannot be compared by the can total, which is why this guide uses mg per pouch throughout.
The mg ladder: from 1.5 mg to 43 mg per pouch
| Level | Product | mg per pouch | mg/g | Pouches per can | Price per can |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Very light | ZYN Spearmint Mini 1 | 1.5 | 4.0 | 20 | €5.79 |
| Light | VELO Sour Lime Mini | 4 | 9.5 | 20 | €5.49 |
| Medium | VELO Green Spearmint Medium | 6 | 8.6 | 24 | €5.49 |
| Strong | VELO Freezing Peppermint Ultra Strong | 14 | 20.0 | 21 | €5.49 |
| Strong | KILLA Exclusive Orange | 13.2 | 16.5 | 20 | €4.19 |
| Very strong | PABLO Exclusive Dark Cherry | 30 | 50 | 20 | €4.19 |
| Very strong | ICEBERG Extreme Ice Cool | 30 | 50 | 20 | €4.39 |
| Highest in our range | Cuba Black Line Blueberry Strong 43mg | 43 | 66 | 20 | €4.19 |
Strength labels such as "strong", "ultra" or "exclusive" are the brand's own words: VELO Freezing Peppermint Ultra Strong and KILLA Exclusive Orange have almost the same mg per pouch (14 and 13.2 mg), even though the names suggest different levels. Prices and stock change, so confirm on each product page.
What each level feels like in practice
1 to 6 mg: where most new users start
ZYN Spearmint Mini 1, VELO Sour Lime Mini and VELO Green Spearmint Medium are mild. They suit anyone who wants a gentle experience or uses pouches only occasionally.
10 to 14 mg: everyday strong
VELO Freezing Peppermint Ultra Strong and KILLA Exclusive Orange sit here. This is a clear step up and is aimed at experienced users who find mild pouches too weak.
20 to 30 mg: very strong
PABLO Exclusive Dark Cherry and ICEBERG Extreme Ice Cool both contain 30 mg per pouch (50 mg/g). Only for people who are used to strong nicotine products.
40 mg and above
Cuba Black Line Blueberry Strong 43mg is the strongest product on this list. It is intended for very experienced users only.
How to choose the right mg for you
- Start low. If you are new, begin at the light end and move up only if needed.
- Judge by mg per pouch, not by the word on the can.
- Do not combine several pouches to reach a higher strength. Pick a product that is already at the level you want.
- Flavour matters too. Mint and menthol feel stronger to many people than fruit at the same mg, so compare flavours separately.

Common mistakes when reading mg
Comparing cans instead of pouches
A can with 27 pouches contains more nicotine in total than a can with 20 pouches at the same mg per pouch, but each pouch is the same. Strength is felt per pouch, so compare that number first and use the can total only to work out price per pouch.
Trusting words over numbers
"Medium", "strong" and "ultra" are not regulated terms. A product called "medium" from one brand can have more nicotine than a "strong" one from another. The mg figure on the product page is the only reliable comparison.
Ignoring pouch size
Mini pouches weigh about 0.4 g and slim ones around 0.7 g. At the same mg/g, the slim pouch contains more nicotine. That is why we always show mg per pouch in the table above.
Jumping up too fast
Moving from 6 mg to 30 mg is a very big step. If you want more, go up one level at a time and give yourself time between changes. Price per pouch is also worth a look: in our range the stronger brands such as PABLO, ICEBERG and Cuba cost less per can than VELO or ZYN, so a lower price does not mean a weaker product.
