Introduction to Stripe
Stripe nicotine pouches recently emerged as an exciting offshoot of the already popular brand FEDRS. Manufactured in Poland, Stripe is perfect for those daring consumers seeking potent nicotine strengths and eye-catching designs. With its cool, risqué aesthetics and unwavering commitment to robust flavours and strong effects, Stripe is more than just a nicotine product—it's a statement for modern users who love to stand out!
But what makes Stripe nicotine pouches stand out? It’s got to be the brand’s unmatched power in terms of nicotine strength! Created for dedicated pouch lovers, Stripe delivers a strong kick, making it one of the mightiest choices available. This bold intensity sets a high standard!
Adding to the brand’s charm, Stripe nicotine pouches are designed with environmental consciousness in mind. Their innovative composition ensures easier breakdown during the disposal process compared to some other options out there. Furthermore, consumers can rest easy knowing they are buying from a brand that prioritises using plant-based ingredients.
Lastly, Stripe's dedication to excellence shines through in its state-of-the-art graphics. With some of the most in-your-face designs out there, Stripe is truly shouting its name from the rooftops.
Stripe Nicotine Pouches – Look & Feel
Stripe's canisters grab your attention right away with a sleek silver exterior that's both flashy and stylish. The artwork on these canisters is like street art at its best, reminiscent of pieces you might associate with the mysterious and always-humorous Banksy. From spooky, humanistic Jack-o-lanterns to cheeky masked variations of cupid, the images push boundaries and give Stripe's packaging an edgier touch than most other brands.
Seriously, these canisters aren't just containers for nicotine pouches—they are pop culture artefacts. And best of all, their lightweight, compact design makes them super convenient for on-the-go use. Just slide your canister into your pocket or purse and forget about it until you need it later on!
Stripe Nicotine Pouches
Stripe nicotine pouches offer a wonderful blend of convenience and discretion. Each pouch is a nifty piece of design, easily slipping under your lip to deliver a long-lasting and delicious sensation. You can truly enjoy Stripe wherever, whenever, without worrying about social norms or comfort.
With a nod to its eco-conscious customer base, Stripe ensures its pouches break down faster post-use in an attempt to reduce environmental harm. And here’s one more bonus: Stripe canisters hold 20 nicotine pouches, ensuring you have a good supply for the week ahead. 🌿
Stripe Flavours: What's Available and What's Good?
Stripe nicotine pouches come in a variety of bold, risk-taking flavours. For instance, Stripe's Blizzard flavour bursts onto the scene with an intensely cool and invigorating blast of mint. This variant is designed for those who crave that sharp, crisp sensation synonymous with a wintry breath of fresh air.
The Citrus Cloud flavour offers a pleasantly zesty ride, perfect for those seeking a tangy kick. It encapsulates the essence of sun-ripened Florida oranges and delivers a refreshingly sweet symphony that’s sure to awaken the senses.
Lastly, Stripe’s Frosty Vine variety presents a unique blend, intertwining the familiarity of mint with the ripe juiciness of purple grapes straight off the vine. It's a tribute to those who favour a harmonious mix of sweet and sharp, delivering a flavour that is both bold and delicate.
Stripe has a couple of other flavours of nicotine pouches on top of those we just mentioned. Keep reading to learn more about the specific tasting notes in each flavour of Stripe nicotine pouches!
Performance: Does Stripe Hit the Spot?
With a truly robust strength of 20mg of nicotine per pouch, Stripe nicotine pouches command respect. These portions are not to be taken lightly, and that potency makes the brand a formidable choice for veteran users who desire an unyielding nicotine sensation. (With that said, those new to nicotine pouches might be better off with a different brand.)
Following the standard Dot system, Stripe denotes strengths as 5/5 Dots. All canisters come in the Slim 5/5 Dot format.
Just in case you’re still confused, here’s a quick refresher on the strength levels available in Stripe nicotine pouches:

Overall
Stripe nicotine pouches are a force to be reckoned with. The brand cares deeply about providing pouch lovers with a robust nicotine experience, and that devotion is clear in every canister. With several delicious flavours and some of the flashiest graphics currently on the market, Stripe appears poised to become a popular brand.

Stephen's Review of Stripe
Overall: Stripe is certainly a loud brand. From their nicotine strengths to the designs on their canisters, they are very bold and unafraid of what others think. The flavours here are truly delicious, too. However, I always struggle to really connect with a brand when they only offer pouches with an extra strong nicotine content.
Pros:
- The flavours were absolutely delicious. Some of the most unique I’ve come across, with some very herbal offerings.
- I like how loud and brash the Stripe brand is. They clearly do not care what naysayers think!
Cons:
- It’s disappointing to see they only have a 20mg option. I would definitely come back for more if they had lighter options. Perhaps I’ll have to dabble in their sister brand, FEDRS.
- The flavour range is a tad limited.
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.5/5
James' Review of Stripe
Overall: Oh, yeah! I love a good nicotine kick, and Stripe absolutely delivers on that front. And how about the graphic design on those canisters? Man, some of the designs are downright hilarious. I cannot wait to show my friends these canisters next time we’re out for a night on the town. They’re going to love Stripe just as much as I did!
Pros:
- These designs are fantastic. Growing up in the UK, I’ve seen my fair share of good street art. These designs remind me of that street art.
- 20mg of nicotine per pouch? Yes, please!
- Delightful citrus options. Thank goodness.
Cons:
- I found they could expand their flavour range. Although they still had more citrus-forward options than most other brands …
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.3/5
Clare's Review of Stripe
Overall: I guess I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with Stripe after trying their nicotine pouches. The nicotine strength in the pouches was far too strong for me. But on the bright side, the flavours were super lovely and the designs were some of the best I’ve seen! Would I go back for Stripe? Only if they have lighter formats. (And I’m pretty sure FEDRS does.)
Pros:
Super yummy flavours. They really play around with all sorts of different offerings.
Like, how could you not love the drawings on the cans? Some are cute, some are devious, and all are playful!
Cons:
- There weren’t a ton of flavours.
- As I said, the nicotine strength in these pouches was too strong!
Scoring:
Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5
Flavour Range: ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5
Nicotine Strength: ⭐⭐ 2/5
Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
Overall: ⭐⭐⭐ 3.5/5

Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5
The Wombat Verdict – The Stripe Range
Stripe nicotine pouches are one of the better offerings on the market for those seeking a robust hit of nicotine. Packing a serious punch of 20mg per pouch, Stripe is not to be taken lightly. If you’re new to pouches, you might want to consider sticking with a brand that offers lighter varieties.
