Introduction to Kurwa
Give a warm welcome to Kurwa, a dynamic newcomer in the nicotine pouch industry from Flavor Labs KFT! This innovative brand stands out thanks to its bold flavours and high nicotine content. With three different lines (Fatality, Killer, and Collection) that prioritise robust nicotine experiences, Kurwa is an ideal brand for the seasoned nicotine pouch enthusiast!
Kurwa has boldly stepped into the nicotine pouch market in recent years. The company has taken a novel approach by focusing on delivering an incredible range of flavours alongside powerful nicotine strengths, which are notably higher than most other brands and cater particularly to seasoned users. This emphasis on both variety and potency in its products distinctly sets Kurwa apart.
With Kurwa, you can enjoy a fusion of comic-book-style design, unique flavours, and the utmost in quality. Below, our trusted pouch testers (Stephen, James, and Clare) have sampled all 35 of Kurwa’s flavours to offer you an idea of what Kurwa is all about. You’ll learn of the different formats, taste profiles, and strengths that Kurwa has to offer.
Kurwa Nicotine Pouches – Look & Feel
Kurwa's canister design really captures the bold spirit of the brand. The lightweight metallic material adds a sleek and durable touch, making it perfect for those who want to enjoy their nicotine pouches on the go. Kurwa’s canisters are incredibly easy to store, too, whether in your pocket or bag. This way, you can always have your favourite Kurwa nicotine pouches close by.
As for Kurwa’s artistic design on canisters? It’s a true testament to the brand’s creative ethos. Bursting with vibrant colours, each can is like a work of art, featuring delightful comic-book-style sketches of a spirited rooster. These eye-catching illustrations both look amazing and perfectly embody the essence of the brand: bold, lively, and unafraid to stand out.
Kurwa Nicotine Pouches
Kurwa's nicotine pouches come in Slim format canisters only. Like many other brands on the market, Kurwa’s pouches are extremely lightweight, weighing in at approximately 0.72g per pouch. This makes Kurwa pouches incredibly comfortable for everyday use. Just slide them under your lip and experience the magic!
A standard Kurwa canister comes with either 18 or 20 individual pouches, ensuring you have a generous supply for regular usage. These numbers pretty much align with industry standards.
Kurwa Flavours: What's Available and What's Good?
When it comes to flavours, Kurwa truly pushes the envelope with its pouches, offering a staggering range of over 30 uniquely tantalising options. For instance, the Kurwa Apple Bubblegum nicotine pouch offers a delightful fusion of sweet, crisp apple and classic bubblegum. Strikingly rich, Kurwa's Blackcurrant nicotine pouches deliver a robust, fruity sensation.
For those seeking a daringly different flavour, Kurwa's Cactus Apple is a must-try. This adventurous blend combines the distinct, tangy taste of cactus with the sweet crispness of apple. Or why not try out Kurwa’s Energy Cola flavour, which delivers an energising burst of bold cola combined with a stimulating, caffeine-like kick.
For those seeking a downright minty sensation, Kurwa's Frost Ice is the way to go. The cool, soothing taste of frost encapsulates your senses, making this flavour a perfect choice for those who enjoy a refreshing experience. Another variety worth trying is Kurwa’s Grape Mint Waves, which combines the sweet, tangy taste of ripe grapes with invigorating mint.
Want to hear something wild? That’s only six of Kurwa’s 35 flavours we just glossed over. Keep reading to learn about the rest!
Kurwa Performance: Does It Hit the Spot?
Kurwa nicotine pouches are well-known in the industry for the strong nicotine kick they provide. Pouches come in two strength varieties: 18mg and 36mg per pouch. These strengths are some of the highest you’ll find, offering an intense nicotine experience for those who are used to stronger products. With such high nicotine content options, we recommend that beginners to Kurwa proceed with caution or opt for other brands.
Unlike many other brands, Kurwa doesn't use a dot system to indicate strength on its canisters. So, be sure to carefully read the product label to know the nicotine content you're getting. All flavours come in either the 18mg or 36mg variety—but never both.
For more information on Kurwa’s different strengths and formats, check out our Collections page.
Overall
Although new to the industry, Kurwa is almost certain to become one of the preeminent brands on the market. The flavour range is incredible, the canister design is fun and bolder than many other brands, and the nicotine strength is no joke.

Kurwa Panel Test Reviews

Stephen's Review of Kurwa
Overall: What an incredible array of flavours. Reminded me of the industry giant Iceberg in that there is a little something for everybody.
The fruity flavours particularly wowed me (no surprise there). However, the nicotine content, especially in the 36mg variety, is very strong. At times it was a bit overwhelming.
CONS:
Super fun packaging. You don’t often see brands taking such wild swings on their branding. I commend them.
The flavour range is incredible. Easily some of the best flavours I’ve tasted.
Lightweight canister with a cool metallic feel to it. Unique!
PROS:
- The nicotine strengths are serious. As someone who usually prefers milder options, the 18mg was not bad. But the 36mg option was far too strong for me.
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James' Review of Kurwa
Overall: Now this is a brand that I will happily keep tucked in my pocket for nights on the town. The nicotine options are to die for. And the flavours? So many of them were delicious. Even the flavours I didn’t love were buoyed by the robust nicotine strength!
Pros:
Those nicotine strengths pulled me in. So, so good.
The flavour range is very impressive. They deliver on many of the classics that pouch die-hards love.
The canisters have one of the most unique feels to them that I’ve come across.
Cons:
Some of the flavours are a bit too wild for me. Mango Milk? Just a bit odd!
Also, there are not a ton of citrus options. They could do better in that department.
While I like the design of the canisters, I found it a bit loud.
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare's Review of Kurwa
Overall: I’m torn with Kurwa! The flavours are so, so lovely. I felt like I was Alice in Wonderland experimenting with them—like there was a new adventure around every corner.
But the nicotine strengths are STRONG! For a light-to-mild pouch lover like me, I found the strengths overpowered the flavours.
Pros:
The design is FUN. I love that little rooster! How could you not?
The flavours are so whacky and enjoyable. They’ve truly got a little something for everybody.
Cons:
- Again, the nicotine options were way too much for me. I could handle the 18mg for a while, but the 36mg was too intense.
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐ 2/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Product Taste Test:
Kurwa Apple Bubblegum Flavour
Stephen: The Apple and Bubblegum flavour was surprisingly good. I don’t usually go for bubblegum, but the apple notes really shine. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Not my usual sort of thing. That said, the apple freshness sure is a nice touch. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: Quite a fun flavour, and the bubblegum gives it a playful touch. Great start to Kurwa’s flavour range! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Apple Energy Drink Flavour
Stephen: Energy drink flavours simply do not appeal to me. The apple notes are nice and fresh, but there’s too much going on overall. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: This is an elevated take on Kurwa’s other apple variety. The energy drink aspect really comes through. Felt like I could run through a wall. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: The energy drink flavour is unique, but not something I’d go for on a typical day. The apple notes are quite nice, though! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Barberry Strawberry Vanilla Flavour
Stephen: Anything berry-related is usually a winner for me. But adding that extra layer of vanilla took things to an entirely new level. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: Simply put, the mix of fruit and vanilla was a bit too sweet for me. I can see how a lot of people would love this flavour though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: The strawberry and vanilla pair so well in tandem! Neither flavour overwhelms the other. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Black Fruit Mint Flavour
Stephen: This is one of the finer fruit-mint combos I’ve come across. The mint doesn’t dominate the way you might expect. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: This was such a pleasant surprise. Not overwhelmingly sweet or minty. Honestly, it was just right. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: My favourite of Kurwa’s flavours so far! The black fruit is juicy and the mint notes deliver that invigorating freshness I was looking for. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Kurwa Blackcurrant Flavour
Stephen: The blackcurrant is bold and delicious. Really enjoyed this one. It delivers exactly what you’d expect. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: Pretty good, but so far the flavours from Kurwa have been overwhelmingly fruity. I’m still seeking that citrus vibe I love. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: This is one of the yummier blackcurrant pouches on the market that I’ve tried! Super juicy. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Blackcurrant Purple Grape Flavour
Stephen: Another hit. Reminiscent of those grape sodas that were really popular in the ‘90s. Super sweet, but in a good way. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: I found it tasty, for sure. But still a little sweet for my palate Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: Bursting with juicy flavour! Probably a bit sweet for some, but I still enjoyed it. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Blueberry Marmalade Flavour
Stephen: The Blueberry Marmalade flavour can be described as almost like dessert in a pouch! It was quite delicious albeit a tad on the sweet side. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: It's a little too sweet for my liking, although an adventurous and interesting pairing. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: The novelty of marmalade in a pouch is fun! And the blueberry notes are pretty distinct. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Brutal Blueberry Flavour
Stephen: Another delightful berry experience. Such robust flavour. On flavour alone, Kurwa is a winner thus far. (I just wish they had lighter nicotine options!) Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: This was a step up from the last blueberry option. Not quite as sweet, which I was thankful for. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Exactly what you’d expect in a blueberry option. The flavour is juicy and reminiscent of ripe summer blueberries! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Brutal Energy Drink Flavour
Stephen: Simply not for me. Energy drinks make my skin tingle, and this flavour reminds me of that. Paired with the high nicotine strength, it’s a flavour I won’t go back to. Rating: ⭐⭐ 2/5
James: This was like a jolt of fresh energy. If you like energy drinks, you’ll enjoy this bad boy. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: I said this with the Apple Energy Drink flavour—this isn’t something I’d usually go for. And without the apple notes, I liked it less. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Kurwa Brutal Fruity Gum Flavour
Stephen: Love the fruity blend here. Pairs well with the bubblegum aspect too. Neither flavour is too dominant. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Pretty much delivers on what you’d expect. I’m still waiting for a hint of citrus in these flavours! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: Playful, juicy, and offers the nostalgic taste of bubblegum. Overall, pretty good! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Brutal Strawberry Flavour
Stephen: Fantastic! Tasted much like you’d expect ripe strawberries basking under the sun to taste. Kurwa’s berry range is impressive! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: Strawberries are one of my favourite berries, so I enjoyed this. Still a bit sweet on my palate though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Felt like I was transported to the warmth of summer with this. The strawberry flavour is sweet and somehow sophisticated at the same time! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Kurwa Bubblegum Flavour
Stephen: It's a nostalgic trip back to childhood, for sure. But I didn’t love the one-noted quality of the Bubblegum. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: Bubblegum, indeed. Not exactly what I’m looking for in a pouch. But I’m sure those who like flavours like this will enjoy it. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: Sweet and playful—it feels like blowing a bubble gum bubble without the stickiness! A touch of mint might have elevated the experience. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Cactus Apple Flavour
Stephen: A unique duo of flavours that works surprisingly well together. Never realised I enjoyed cactus until now! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: A bit sweet for my palate, but still a pleasant surprise. I’m not sure I’m picking up the “cactus” notes all that much, though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: What an interesting combination! It’s like a more subtle version of apple with some additional aromas I wasn’t expecting. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Cherry Cranberry Shake Flavour
Stephen: Okay, now this was quite delightful. It’s sweet, tangy, and creamy all at the same time. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Loved the tanginess. It paired really well with the tartness and sweetness of the cherry. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: One of the most unique flavours I’ve ever come across! It was tangy and creamy all at once. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Cocopilada Mango Juicy Flavour
Stephen: Take me to the beach, please. This was so tropical and warm. Coconut and mango in perfect harmony. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: It was quite good and definitely reminded me of being at a resort. Still just a bit sweet for me, though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: I can’t tell if maybe Kurwa’s sweet flavours are catching up to me or not … but this was a bit overpowering. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Coffee Banana Frappuccino Flavour
Stephen: I love a good coffee flavour. And I adore bananas. So, naturally, this was a win-win. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: I’m a bit of a sucker for chocolate-banana smoothies. This doesn’t quite deliver, as it’s more coffee-centric … but it was still very good. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: One of Kurwa’s best flavours thus far! Invigorating, creamy, and there are slight chocolate notes. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Cola Whisky Flavour
Stephen: It's like a cocktail in pouch form. Sadly, I’m not much of a whisky fan these days. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: The whisky taste is there, which I really loved. Pairs quite nicely with the cola aromas. Like a perfect whisky soda! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: It’s fun! But I’m not much of a whisky gal. So I didn’t enjoy this as much as others probably will. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Energy Bubblegum Flavour
Stephen: The energy flavours just are not doing it for me. Definitely lives up to its name, though. I’ll give it that. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: There’s a blast of flavour in these Energy Bubblegum pouches. And the nicotine content is so good. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: It's unique and perky, but not my desired taste. There is something about energy drink flavours that I simply don’t gravitate towards. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Energy Cola Flavour
Stephen: Again, I’m not an energy drink fan. The cola notes are nice though. There’s a good hint of vanilla in there. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: The cola is really delicious when paired with the energy qualities. Another winner for me. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Unique once again, but simply not the flavour profile I typically enjoy. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Kurwa Fresh Cola Vanilla Cherry Flavour
Stephen: The vanilla and cherry are a match made in heaven. Tastes exactly like a certain soda brand’s spin on their classic! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: Normally this sort of flavour would be too sweet for me. But all the flavours are balanced so well. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Wow. You’ll really feel like you just opened a can of *that* soda brand and started guzzling it. So good. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Kurwa Frost Ice Flavour
Stephen: It's crisp and cool like a winter morning. Very refreshing. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: A classic mint taste that will not disappoint. My friends will love this. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: So refreshing! One of the best mint flavours I’ve come across yet on the market. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Grape Mint Waves Flavour
Stephen: This combo is a winner. I find that mint can sometimes be too overpowering, but it pairs so well with the juiciness of the grape. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: This is a fantastic blend. I was worried it would be too sweet, but the mint tones down that fruitiness. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: What a lovely combo. Icy and fruity in equal balance. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Kurwa Grapefruit Lemonily Vanilla Flavour
Stephen: There was a lot going on here. Many flavours balancing all at once. Not sure I loved it. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: Finally, some citrus! It’s tangy and downright delicious. Practically designed for me. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Clare: It was very zingy and vanilla-forward at the same time. Really good! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Just Berries Forest Berries Flavour
Stephen: This flavour was made for me. I’m a berries fanatic. And luckily the nicotine strength isn’t that bonkers. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: A berry blast indeed, but a bit too sweet for my taste. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: I love the mix of berries—it's like a summer picnic in a pouch! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Kiwi Apple Flavour
Stephen: A delightful combo of tart and sweet! Kurwa’s fruity range is seriously unparalleled. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: The Kiwi Apple mix was a refreshing change. Not too, too sweet. There’s some tartness in there. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Such a crisp and tasty pouch! The kiwi flavour is subtle but just enough. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Kiwi Strawberry Flavour

James: Ah. A bit too sweet this time around for my tastebuds. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: It's a delightful balance of tart and sweet, although I slightly preferred the Kiwi Apple variety we tried beforehand. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Lemon Lemongrass Flavour
Stephen: The lemon and lemongrass combo was quite refreshing. But perhaps a bit too citrus-forward for me overall. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Oh boy. This is what I’m looking for. There are herbal notes, citrus notes, and tangy notes all wrapped up in here. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Clare: I felt cosy with this pouch. It was practically like I was sipping on a nice herbal tea with a lemon wedge in it. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.7/5
Kurwa Mango Milk Flavour
Stephen: The creaminess of milk blended so well with the sweet mango. Definitely a winner. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Normally this would be too sweet for me, but the creamy factor balances it out. It was like enjoying a Vietnamese mango shake! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: A smooth and creamy pouch of tropical delight. It's a real treat! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Mango Raspberry Flavour
Stephen: The Mango Raspberry flavour combines tang and sweetness in a way no other flavour has. Fantastic. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

Clare: This was such a blast of summer! The flavours are spot-on. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Kurwa Pink Rose Lemonade Flavour
Stephen: There’s a lot going on here. The pink rose is subtle, and the citrus really shines. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: The citrus flavours from Kurwa are a huge win. Pairs really nicely with the subtleness of the pink rose. And there’s some sweetness to it, but not too much. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Refreshing and floral! I feel like it could’ve used a bit more lemon and a bit less sweet though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Raspberry Strawberry Flavour

Clare: It's like a sweet treat without the calories! The strawberry flavour is very dominant. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Strawberry Gum Flavour
Stephen: The strawberry notes are fantastic. Perhaps a bit too much gum for me though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: This flavour surprised me. One of the more delightful fruity flavours, probably because the gum balances things out. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Brings back memories! I used to love chewing on fruity gums as a kid, and this replicated that feeling to a tee. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Kurwa Tropical Cocktail Flavour
Stephen: By the time I was done with this pouch, I couldn’t stop dreaming of a vacation. There’s a nice touch of alcohol flavour in here. Rum, I think? Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Very sweet. Too sweet for me. I did really like the rum-forward tasting notes though. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: So exotic and refreshing! I can practically envision myself on a scuba adventure now. My only complaint is that it was a bit sweet. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Kurwa Apple Lemon Pear Cake
Stephen: What a wild mix of flavours! You can literally taste the crispness of the apples, the sweet from the pear, and the tang of the lemon. There's even some creaminess from the 'cake'. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: This definitely leans on the sweeter side, but I have to say, I really loved the addition of the citrus. It balances things out. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Such a wild blend! I love how adventurous Kurwa can get with their flavours. I especially love the pear notes in here. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5

Kurwa Wild Strawberry Raspberry Bubblegum
Stephen: There's a lot going on in here! I definitely love the berry aromas, but the bubblegum keeps it from being a perfect flavour. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: I enjoy the bubblegum touch. It adds a touch of complexity to what would otherwise be an overly-fruity flavour. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: There are a ton of fruity flavours swirling around in here! I like that you can differentiate between the fruity aromas and the gum aromas. Overall, I say yum! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
The Wombat Verdict – The Kurwa Range
Our taste testers enjoyed the flavour options of Kurwa nicotine pouches, particularly the brand’s fruity and mint-forward varieties. Stephen and Clare would’ve enjoyed some lighter nicotine options, whereas James found the strength delightful.
If you are an experienced nicotine pouch enthusiast, we definitely recommend the Kurwa brand. Those who are newer to pouches, however, might be better off sticking to a brand with more light-to-mild nicotine options.
