Introduction to Nois
Nois is a relatively new Estonian brand of nicotine pouches proudly brought to you by HRJ Production OÜ. With a manufacturing plant located in the heart of Tallinn, Estonia, Nois ensures top-notch quality control at every stage to deliver the finest in nicotine pouches. When you choose Nois, you're not just buying a product—you're immersing yourself in an up-and-coming Estonian brand with a fierce commitment to quality.
Despite being a younger brand, Nois has quickly established itself as a serious player. With an unwavering commitment to quality control, the company ensures that only the best in nicotine pouches make it through the manufacturing line. Nois understands that everyone has different preferences, so they offer a variety of nicotine strengths. Whether you're new to using pouches or a more seasoned user, Nois promises an experience catered to your tastes.
With Nois, you will find a truly diverse range of both flavours and nicotine strengths backed by the highest in quality control. Below, our trusted pouch testers (Stephen, James, and Clare) have sampled a variety of Nois’s offerings to provide you with insights into what Nois is all about. Alongside them, you’ll discover the many different taste profiles and strengths that Nois has to offer.
Nois Nicotine Pouches – Look & Feel
Nois has prioritised a sleek, ultra-modern design to stand out amongst a crowded market.
Canisters are the ideal blend of cool and contemporary. The design is stylish, minimalist, and perfectly represents the attention to detail that is so pivotal to Nois’s success. With either black or white backdrops, Nois canisters showcase a commitment to quality.
The lettering on these canisters also perfectly matches the flavour inside. For instance, Nois Mango sports flashy yellow lettering, whereas Blueberry Ice rocks a tantalising midnight purple! This delineation makes it easier to identify flavours.
And let's not forget about convenience! Nois cans are small, lightweight, and perfect for carrying around with you.
Nois Nicotine Pouches
Nois cans offer a choice of 22, 27, or 30 nicotine pouches—the latter of which are far above the industry average. Nois wanted to go above and beyond in terms of pouch offerings to provide a unique benefit to customers.
Nois pouches are incredibly lightweight, too. Clocking in at just 0.5 grams per pouch, Nois pouches are some of the lightest on the market. That means they’ll slide comfortably under your lip time and time again!
Nois Flavours: What's Available and What's Good?
Nois offers a delightful range of pouch flavours. From fruity to minty, mild to extreme, Nois’s flavours are diverse and meticulously crafted to appeal to all sorts of palates.
For instance, Nois Black Currant and Nois Blueberry Ice nicotine pouches offer a delectable vibe, combining the fruitiness and tartness of berries. The Nois Cool Strong and Nois Extreme ranges are designed for those seeking an intense bite. Cool Strong provides a chilling mint flavour that is both potent and refreshing, while the Extreme range takes things to another level with options such as Extreme Blueberry and Extreme Mango.
The Nois Ice Mango and Nois Mango Mint flavours provide a tropical experience with a wintry blast. The Nois Spearmint and Nois Spearmint Lite pouches, meanwhile, encapsulate the wonderful essence of spearmint. You’ll find yourself indulging in a sensation that is both refreshing and long-lasting.
Nois Performance: Does It Hit the Spot?
Nois offers a wide range of strengths catering to all different types of pouch enthusiasts. If you're looking for a lighter/milder experience, Nois has Slim canisters with 4mg, 6mg, 8mg, and 10mg options. (Please note that there is only one flavour option for both the 6mg and 8mg varieties. Black Currant comes in an 8mg nicotine strength, and Mango Mint comes in 6mg.)
Nois also offers several Slim options for those seeking something a little more serious! Their higher strengths of 17.5mg and 25mg will give buyers a robust, intense experience.

Stephen's Review of Nois
Overall: A solid selection of both flavours and nicotine strengths. I do wish they had some options that were specifically fruit-forward (instead of being fruity and minty), but overall I still enjoyed their offerings. The can is super sleek, too.
Pros:
Really cool can design. Very futuristic and stylised.
I appreciated the milder options in terms of nicotine strength.
Solid flavour range with some good fruity options!
Cons:
The strength formats on the can are a bit confusing. I’m more used to the dot system other brands use.
Would’ve been nice to have some flavours that were purely fruit.
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
James' Review of Nois
Overall: Some massive upsides and slight downsides with Nois. What I really love about the brand is the nicotine varieties it offers. The 17.5mg and 25mg options are delightful. I can already imagine the joy my friends will experience when I introduce them to those options. Downside? No citrus whatsoever.
Pros:
The can design is pretty sleek. Kind of like you’re entering a different dimension or something.
Oh boy, those nicotine strength levels! Love it. It’s not always easy to find such strong kicks.
Cons:
Pretty much all the flavours are some variety of mint. I don’t mind this, but it would be nice to have at least a couple of non-mint options.

While we’re on flavour—what’s up with having no citrus? Seriously?
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare's Review of Nois
Overall: I’m just going to come right out and say it: I LOVED Nois. Minty goodness? Check. A lightweight and discreet can? Check. Nicotine strengths for everybody? Check, check, and check!
Honestly, there are not enough good things to say about Nois nicotine pouches.
Pros:
The amount of pouches in each can is incredible. Great bang for your buck!
Mint galore. If you’re a mint lover (and I am!), you will easily find something to adore here.
Their nicotine strengths cater to people like me (who like milder options) and my friends (who prefer stronger options).
Cons:
If I had to pick one nit, it would be that the flavour options aren’t super diverse. Some more varieties of citrus and fruit might be nice! (Just a tiny suggestion!)
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.5/5
Nois Product Taste Test:
Nois Black Currant Flavour
Stephen: The Nois Black Currant flavour did not disappoint. It was refreshingly sweet and had just the right amount of sourness to it. Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Not my first choice of flavour or nicotine strength. That said, the sour notes were really something. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: I liked the fruity twist, for sure. But in comparison to all of Nois’s minty options, this was one of my least favourite. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Nois Blueberry Ice Flavour
Stephen: A truly incredible flavour. Vibrant berry coupled with just the right amount of mint. This is a pouch I would go back for. Didn’t mind how light it was, either! Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: Enjoyable flavour, but a bit too sweet for me. And sadly the nicotine strength was quite low. Rating: ⭐⭐ 2/5
Clare: The minty kick here balanced really well with the blueberry! One of their best flavours without a doubt. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Nois Cool Strong Flavour
Stephen: It’s nice they have a variety of nicotine options with this one. The mint flavour was nice, and not too overwhelming. Score: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: So good. The minty notes were delicious, and the higher nicotine options were special. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: I enjoyed the strong minty freshness of this one! And the lighter option was great. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Nois Extreme Flavour
Stephen: This is definitely for those who love a strong kick. It's a bit intense for me, though. Score: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: Yes. More of this, please! That nicotine kick is no joke. Refreshing minty flavour, too. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Clare: Loved the strong, bold flavour. But it's definitely not for the faint-hearted! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Nois Extreme Blueberry Flavour
Stephen: Amazing blueberry flavour. One of my favourites amongst all the Nois flavours I dabbled in. Paired so well with the minty side! Only downside is that the nicotine is a tad intense. Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: I like my flavours strong and this one delivers! Would be nice if there was some citrus somewhere, but I can’t complain too much. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: Another really solid mix of fruit and mint! But the nicotine is just too much for me. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Nois Extreme Mango Flavour
Stephen: Too strong for me with the nicotine hit. The mango flavour is great though, for sure. Score: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: The mango is quite overpowering—a bit too much for me. But the nicotine kick was excellent. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: I don’t usually go this strong in terms of nicotine. Really yummy flavour, though! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Nois Ice Mango Flavour
Stephen: This is an absolute treat if you love mango. The flavours were rich and tropical with just the right amount of mintiness. Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
James: I prefer the Extreme Mango flavour. They’re very similar, but this one packs way less of a punch. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: That mango! And that mint! I felt like I was relaxing on the beach, but every once in a while a light breeze would come in and cool me down. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Nois Mint Flavour
Stephen: A classic mint flavour that doesn't disappoint. If only I liked mint-centric flavours more. Score: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: Clean, fresh, and invigorating. Just what you'd want from a mint pouch, with a decent nicotine kick. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Clare: So refreshing. Exactly what I imagine when I think of a mint flavour. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Nois Mint Lite Flavour
Stephen: A lighter version of the original. I found them to be quite similar, to be honest. Score: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
James: This mint variation wasn’t as good for me. Probably because of the lower nicotine level. It was very noticeable. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: Enjoyed the subtlety of this one! People who are new to nicotine pouches would probably love this. Yeah, it’s an introductory pouch. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
Nois Spearmint Flavour
Stephen: I preferred this slightly more than the Nois Mint flavour. It’s got a bit more depth to it. Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Pretty good! The spearmint definitely came through in strong doses. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Clare: The spearmint adds an interesting layer to the mint flavour. The more I try this brand, the more I’ve fallen in love with all their mint varieties! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.7/5
Nois Spearmint Lite Flavour
Stephen: A milder take on the Spearmint flavour that still delivered. If you’re looking for an introductory pouch, this is a solid choice. Score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
James: Way too light for me, especially when they offer much stronger minty options. The spearmint flavour was definitely there, though. Rating: ⭐⭐ 2/5
Clare: Another winner! The spearmint was invigorating, and the nicotine was light. See you again soon, Nois! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.3/5
