The strength ladder inside XQS
This is what makes XQS unusual: the strength is tied to the flavour, so moving up means changing what you are tasting. Worth knowing before you order.
- 8mg — Black Cherry, Blueberry Mint, Spearmint, Tropical. The gentlest, and where the fruit flavours live.
- 9.6mg — Cool Ice. A step up in both nicotine and cooling.
- 11.2mg — Arctic Freeze.
- 12mg — Crisp Ice, Frost Bite. The strongest, and both heavily mint-led.
If you want a fruit flavour, you are choosing from the 8mg end. If you want maximum strength, you are choosing mint. There is no strong fruit option in this range.
Which XQS should you pick?
- First pouch ever? Spearmint 8mg - the softest thing here.
- Don't like mint? Black Cherry or Tropical, both 8mg and genuinely fruit-led.
- Coming from ZYN 6mg? Cool Ice 9.6mg is the natural next rung.
- Want the strongest? Frost Bite 12mg, but expect serious cold.
The slim format
XQS pouches are narrower than most, which is the other reason people choose the brand - they genuinely disappear under the lip. If discretion is your priority, this is the most discreet pouch we stock. Compare the brands in our complete pouch guide.
