BAOW Pouches Flavors: Cheers to That
Just when we at Snusdirect think our brands must have covered all bases when it comes to inventing new taste profiles, a new collection comes along to mix things up. BAOW pouches are a prime example!
It offers the following flavors:
- BAOW Gin & Tonic. This cocktail is simple yet (very) effective, earning it a special place in the hearts of many. Now, it can be enjoyed in the form of a BAOW pouch.
- BAOW Negroni. Another popular cocktail, negronis combine gin and wine. It might sound hard to emulate in a nicotine pouch, but BAOW pulls it off with style.
- BAOW Pina Colada. This is one of the world’s most popular alcoholic drinks, especially when the sun is out and we’re on vacation. But this pouch can be enjoyed on or off vacation, whatever the weather.
- BAOW Ice Mint. Beverages might be a staple in the BAOW range, but the brand isn’t a one-trick pony. Ice Mint offers a classic minty taste profile, formulated to freshen up the mouth.
Do BAOW Pouches Taste Like Alcohol?
It’s hard not to notice that alcohol is a common component in BAOW pouches. But fear not — even teetotals can enjoy these portions since no alcohol is used in the pouches.
Rather, the alcohol-based drinks are used as flavor inspiration, with other ingredients are used to mimic their taste. It would be misleading to claim the pouches taste exactly like alcoholic drinks, but they do share some similarities.
The ingredients lists of BAOW pouches include the likes of:
- Cellulose fiber
- Waster
- Salt
- Nicotine
- Sweetener and flavorings
- Stabilizer
- Nicotine polacrilex
- Humectant
How Strong is BAOW’s “Extra Strong” Classification Exactly?
Each product in the BAOW collection has “X-Strong” in its name. But everyone has a different idea of what exactly extra strong means, so let’s get things crystal clear.
Each BAOW portion contains 12mg of nicotine per pouch, which is plenty of nicotine by most peoples’ standards! On Snusdirect, we have a category dedicated to strong nicotine pouches, which includes options with as much as 22.5mg of nicotine per portion.
All of this goes to say, BAOW pouches fall well within the strong category, but they’re not the most extreme on the market either.
But to add to the intensity, BAOW pouches are moist, which means they release nicotine fast to create a stronger feel.
Looking for Something Less Strong?
12mg pouches aren’t for everyone, but Snusdirect has no shortage of options for those seeking out something less intense.
Our selection of nicotine pouches includes portions with as little as 3mg of nicotine each, which is just a quarter of what BAOW offers. Naturally, there are options with everything in between, too.
Before BAOW Pouches, There was Helwit
Sometimes, people find themselves liking a music artist they thought was brand-new to them, only to find out that their songs are actually made by the same producer of another band they love.
The same is often true of nicotine pouch brands — two different ranges with completely different names, flavors, and designs are often made by the same company. It might sound sneaky, but who are we to complain if it brings more delicious taste profiles to the market?
Perhaps you can see where we’re going with this. BAOW pouches are made by the manufacturer of another popular brand, Helwit nicotine pouches.
BAOW and Helwit: Two Peas in a Pod?
Both BAOW and Helwit are made by Yoik AB, a Swedish manufacturer that has been creating nicotine pouches since 2018.
Helwit pouches were introduced to the market first, and they’ve become popular among our customers thanks to some more unusual flavors, such as Cherry, Violet, and Banana (plus some more “usual” options like Mint and Blueberry).
But Helwit pouches primarily catered to pouch users looking for less strong options, with the portions containing between 3.5mg and 7.5mg each.
