Beginner Nicotine Pouches: Mild Strengths

This page only shows the mild strengths, 1.5mg to 6mg per pouch. Most cans on it are ZYN Minis, along with three Sesh+ cans at 4mg. The Mini is a small, dry pouch and the easiest format to get used to if you're new to pouches. These strengths are the least likely to leave a first-timer dizzy or nauseous.

What strength should a beginner start with?

• Want the lightest pouch: start at 1.5mg with Cool Mint Mini, Spearmint Mini or Black Cherry Mini. If 1.5mg is sold out, go to 3mg.
• Light, occasional user: try 3mg. Every ZYN Mini on this page comes in 3mg: Apple Mint, Citrus, Coffee and Peach, plus the three above and Tropical, which is sold out right now. The full list is on the ZYN 3mg page. Sesh+ Mint, Wintergreen and Mango are 4mg, a small step up.
• Regular user who wants to keep it light: 6mg. See the ZYN 6mg page.

Best beginner flavors

• If you like mint: Cool Mint Mini 3mg or Spearmint Mini 3mg.
• If you don't like mint: Citrus Mini 3mg, or Black Cherry Mini when its 3mg is in stock.
• For fruit: Peach Mini 3mg or Apple Mint Mini 3mg.
• Something different: Coffee Mini 3mg.

How to use your first pouch

Put it under your upper lip and leave it there for 20 to 30 minutes. Don't chew or swallow it, and drop it in the catch lid when you're done. If you feel nauseous or dizzy, the strength is too high, so take it out and go lighter next time.
