Back in 2003, dear friends Jonas Engwall and Adam Gillberg sparked a brilliant idea: to create a modern, top-notch nicotine pouch that would redefine the industry with its fresh style, innovative format, and exceptional taste. 

And voila! Skruf was born, quickly gaining popularity over time, particularly in Norway, where it has captured the hearts of super white pouch aficionados. How cool is that?

What Are Skruf Pouches?

Skruf Super White is a collection of beautifully crafted Swedish nicotine pouches that prioritise simplicity, quality, and exquisite flavours. With six meticulously curated options available in extra soft, slim, and super slim formats, and nicotine strengths ranging from 6 to 16mg/pouch, Skruf believes in the magic of understatement.

Get ready for a refreshing and invigorating taste adventure paired with the freedom to choose a level of intensity that matches your preferences. Say hello to the touch of class that super white pouches have been lacking!

What Is Unique About Skruf?

From a small village in Sweden emerged a pouch product that's got your back! Say hello to Skruf, born in 2003 from the wild dreams of two close pals, Adam and Jonas—honorary wombats! They quickly made waves in Europe and the United States, earning their place as the second-largest super white manufacturer in Sweden.

Skruf, a trusted company, is famous for its Super White range. By 2018, Skruf had switched to crafting nicotine pouches. They soared to become the second-largest smokeless product maker in Sweden.

Skruf’s incredible success is all thanks to its mind-blowing flavours and the top-notch quality of its products. And guess what? There's a secret ingredient that takes it up a notch: rose oil! 

That’s right: Skruf infuses its pouches with rose oil, adding a touch of awesomeness to their pouches.

Thanks to their extensive knowledge and experience in the smokeless industry, Skruf has established a loyal following. When it comes to pouches, Swedish quality means top-notch! 

Skruf’s high-class products are trusted and enjoyed by smokeless enthusiasts throughout the EU and UK. While official popularity statistics may be rare, one thing is crystal clear: Skruf nicotine pouches are a fan favourite and one of the most sought-after brands in the UK!

How to Use Skruf

What's Inside? – Skruf: The Breakdown

Let's take a closer look at Skruf Super White. Get ready to dive in and discover what makes it so great!

Skruf's nicotine pouches boast an irresistibly sleek and eye-catching design that's hard to resist! The cans are conveniently colour-coded, allowing users to easily identify flavours. (For instance, our mint flavour has a cool bluish hue, whereas licorice sports a delightful brownish tone.) 

Its compact size also makes Skruf perfect for on-the-go enjoyment. And don't forget the handy catch lid on the cans—after all, Skruf is deeply committed to keeping things clean and tidy!

Skruf weighs an average of 17 grams per can. They're also ergonomically designed to fit snugly in your hand and pocket. The artwork is sleek, modern, and minimalist. And let's not forget the nifty 1-to-5 strength gauge, which helps you find your perfect match!

The can comes with a whopping 24 pouches, which is more than your average! (Just something to consider when you're crunching the numbers.) One exception: the Frozen Mint Max, limited to only 20 pouches.

The pouches themselves are slim and fit comfortably under the lip. Their size and weight (0.72 grams) are crafted for optimal absorption and flavour release. They are super white, living up to the name, and remain white before, during, and after use. 

This whiteness means they won’t stain your teeth—though they will provide a satisfying nicotine experience.

The packaging, pouch size, and can size are all meticulously designed to enhance both the practicality and enjoyment of Skruf Super White nicotine pouches.

Flavours

Skruf offers a wide variety of refreshing minty flavours to tickle your taste buds. There’s Polar Eucalyptus, Fresh Mint, and Frozen Mint—each with a unique twist. Some are sweet and subtle, while others provide a minty kick that packs a punch.

In the UK, you'll discover six absolutely delightful flavours. (We're always on the lookout for importing unique flavours from other EU sites. Stay tuned for some exciting surprises!)

At Two Wombats, we group products when possible into broad flavour families to make it easy for you to explore new brands. (You can read our review of each flavour in our skruf review.)

Strengths

Skruf cans usually show markers between one and five. But guess what? Sometimes they go all out and have six! Let me break it down for you. Take a look at Skruf Purple Cassice. It's available in two strengths: 6mg with two dots and 10mg with three dots. Pretty neat, right?

Skruf advertises based on nicotine per pouch. That means each pouch has 10mg. (Some brands advertise per mg, but then the pouches have less. Read our guide on formats to find out more.)

Skruf traditionally has a smaller selection of strengths in the UK. While Fresh Mint is available in 6mg, 10mg, and 18mg, Purple Cassice is available in 10 and 18. Meanwhile, the rest are only available in one strength. Here's the breakdown.
