Felt reluctant to buy this but honestly needed something else to give me energy and satisfy the need for something minty—and-whoa-this stuff has potent long lasting mint! As far as focus and energy I give it 7 out of 10-I feel a bit tempted to chew on it but I advise don’t do it bc it bust open and some type of papery stuff comes out. It feels extremely weird having a piece of what feels like thick wet paper towel in your mouth-but hey if it works,then it works! I’d advise to give it a try bc you definitely get an electric shock of energy right away but I couldn’t hold the thing in mouth beyond 15 mins-hence that is probably why I ended up with 5 WHOLE containers of the stuff. .

UPDATE - I’ve bumped this up from 3 stars to 5 because the seller offered to fix the problem in my original review. Other than that flaw I believe the pouches are worth 5 stars for my use.ORIGINAL - I’ve been using nicotine pouches for years and finally decided to quit. Grabbed these to help and they’re great for taking the edge off when the cravings hit hard. Not sure I feel any actual effects, I just like them as a simulation of what I was using. I tried a few other nic free pouches and these are my favorite so far but they're sealed terribly. 3 stars because every tin had at least one pouch busted open inside which is a waste of money and just an annoyance because it makes them messier than they need to be

Having tasted this now I understand why I wasn’t dissuaded from buying this by reviews. So I will endeavor to dissuade you from buying these based solely on the taste. I also didn’t focus on the ingredients as strongly as I should have. The fact that it contains sucralose would have kept me from buying these.First point: I noticed nothing after using a few of these. No physical or mental change in any way. I got these hoping for a cognitive boost during work. I got nothing. Good or bad, that I noticed.Second point: this is the reason I’m actually writing this. These things taste horrible. As I was considering purchasing these I was thinking that I want mint but the only one available was mango. I love fresh mangos and dried mangos are pretty good too so how bad could these be?Very bad. It’s hard to explain though because it’s not that the mango flavor is the issue. It really isn’t. It’s the sickeningly sweet chemical flavor WITH the mango.If you’ve had dried mango just imagine that flavor with a packet of Splenda. It’s awful. I have to have a flavored beverage of any kind ready to wash out the flavor before I put one of these in my mouth. When the flavor gets too strong, swish the beverage and then I can handle it for a few minutes longer.It’s basically the same pouch as a Zyn in dimensions. It’s also as dry. With the over-the-top fake sweetness cranked to 11 and dried mango flavor. I’d actually considering throwing them out because the thought of putting another one in my mouth is repulsive.The upside: The package says to have this in your mouth for (only) 20 minutes. When I use an Alp pouch I leave it in my mouth for hours. After a few seconds of this mango monstrosity in my mouth I got deeply depressed at the thought of having this in my mouth for hours. So I checked the package and saw the instructions for 20 minutes and while it never really improved it was still only 20 minutes of misery.

Usually good. Helps me focus. I buy a 5 pack every couple of weeks. Flavor is a bit inconsistent with mint. Last 5 pack of mint had barely any flavor for all 5 cans. Recent 5 pack has busted pouches leaving the rest covered in powder. This is the first container opened, I don’t open them until I’m ready to use them. Hoping the rest of the 5 pack is good. Disappointing for price, they aren’t cheap so quality should be more consistent Forsure.

Works totally fine with fighting withdrawal while wearing a nicotine patch... not sure how well it would do if I quit nicotine cold turkey. But I quit smoking 7 years ago and replaced it with nicotine pouches, but quitting nicotine pouches I find to be hard than quitting smoking, at same time all I did was replace one addiction with another, while still getting my kick. The patch I feel is tougher to quit from, BUT will result in actually quitting nicotine vs taking nicotine pouches... therefore, felt compelled to just start using the patch only to quit, which seems to be working, BUT am struggling with focus at work due to the lack of the quick nicotine I'd get from pouches... so this nicotine free pouch in a way sort of helps with that focus. This one tastes more like a real nicotine pouch vs NZE pouches... however I prefer the ingredients in NZE pouches, specifically the artificial sweetener NZE uses, Xylitol vs Alpha's use of Splenda.
