A can of Velo Icy Cherry 8mg

Icy Cherry, Velo's cool cherry at 8mg

Ask for a cherry Velo and there are two cans to choose from, and this is the 8mg one. Icy Cherry comes from the Swedish side of the brand's range, and it is its own recipe, separate from the 10mg Cherry Ice rather than a lighter copy of it. Velo is BAT's nicotine pouch brand, and it started life in Sweden. The pitch is simple: a sweet cherry with a fresh, cool edge running alongside it. It sits at the very top of Velo's Lower Strength line, the last rung before Regular Strength. No messing about, cherry with a breeze behind it.

Dark cherry first, a fresh mint twinge right behind

First comes the cherry, ripe and sweet, like the glacé cherry off the top of a Bakewell tart. Then the cool arrives, a light minty lift that sharpens the fruit rather than covering it. The two settle into an easy balance, cherry in front and freshness behind, and that balance holds through the load. Nothing turns sticky or heavy along the way. The finish is crisp, with a last hint of cherry on the way out. Proper fruit, with a fresh edge to keep it lively.

8mg a pouch, the top of Velo's Lower Strength line

Each pouch carries 8mg of nicotine, which sits at the start of our medium band, 8mg to 16mg. On Velo's shelf it is the highest step in the Lower Strength line, which runs from 4mg through 6mg to 8mg, and it shares that 8mg rung with the biggest group of cans in the range, Blue Raspberry and Purple Grape among them. Next up is Regular Strength at 10mg and 10.9mg, then Full Strength at 14mg to 17mg. There are 20 pouches in a can. In snus terms, an everyday number with plenty of flavour on top.

Cherry fans, and the next Velo along

This is a can for anyone who likes a sweet fruit snus with a fresh finish, and for people who want an everyday 8mg to keep in the pocket. It suits cherry lovers, of course, and anyone who enjoys the fruit and mint pairing but wants the fruit to lead. When you fancy a step up, Velo Cherry Ice 10mg is the other cherry on the shelf, with a citrus note and a cooling finish. Prefer a different fruit at the same number? Velo Blue Raspberry 8mg. Give it a go.
