CUBA Black – Banana Hit 43mg

Banana is the single flavour note in CUBA Black Banana Hit 43mg, a slim black pouch from the highest-strength CUBA line. Nicotobacco, the Polish company behind CUBA, pairs that sweet fruit with 43mg of nicotine per portion. This is a can for people who already use very strong pouches every day, not a place to start.

How CUBA Black Banana Hit 43mg reaches its dose

Each portion works out at about 0.65 g, and the filling holds 66mg of nicotine per gram, which is how a slim pouch gets to 43mg. That grades it Extreme, the top band of the six we use on Haven Snus. Multiply by the 20 portions in the can and one tin carries 860mg in total. Put another way, one portion holds more nicotine than four 10mg pouches combined.

Banana Hit in the White line, for a lighter day

The Banana Hit name also appears in CUBA White at 10.4mg, packed in an identical 13 g tin with a white pouch. Because the two portions weigh roughly the same, the gap comes down to concentration: 66mg per gram in Black against 16mg in White. Keeping one of each lets a regular user move the strength up or down while the fruit stays put. The banana itself reads sweet and mellow, without the sour edge of citrus or the chill of mint.
