So, I wanted to try those ICE nicotine pouches. You know, the ones from Iceland. I heard they’re pretty strong, like 11 mg of nicotine per pouch. And let me tell you, they are not kidding around.
First off, finding these things was a bit of a pain. Apparently, the government decided they can only be sold in pharmacies. Like, what’s up with that? Anyway, I finally managed to get my hands on a pack.

I popped one in, and whoa, the mint flavor was intense! It was like a blizzard in my mouth. These ICE pouches are all about that minty freshness, it seems. I also tried Cherry Ice flavor, and it was really a big hit, but mint is still my favorite. I think the cooling effect is a big part of the experience.
- Opened the can and took one out.
- Placed it under my upper lip like I saw in some guide.
- Waited for the nicotine to hit.
- Felt the strong minty flavor and a slight burning sensation.
After a few minutes, I started to feel the nicotine. It was definitely stronger than I expected. I felt a bit lightheaded, but not in a bad way. It was more like a buzz, you know? I can see why some folks might not be able to handle it, though.
I used them for a few days, just to see what the hype was all about. I wouldn’t say I’m hooked, but they were interesting. It’s not something I’d use every day, but maybe once in a while when I need a little pick-me-up.
Overall, I’d say ICE nicotine pouches are worth a try if you’re curious. Just be prepared for the strong mint flavor and the nicotine kick. And remember, they’re only sold in pharmacies now, so you might have to hunt for them a bit.
My final take?
They’re strong, minty, and a bit of an adventure to find. But hey, that’s part of the fun, right?
