RELX Airpouch – Spearmint Fresh 20mg

Twenty milligrams in a pouch under 1mm thick: RELX Spearmint Fresh 20mg is the top of the AirPouch ladder and our only Ultra Strong RELX. It is meant for experienced users who find 14mg too light, not for anyone new to pouches.

Who RELX Spearmint Fresh 20mg is for

If you already use pouches in the high teens and like spearmint, this is the RELX answer. Coming up from RELX Spearmint Fresh 14mg, you gain 6mg per pouch with no change in flavour or pouch size. From a typical 6mg can the jump is large, so start lower in the range if you are unsure. On our shelves no other RELX flavour reaches 20mg, although RELX does make a 20mg Strawberry Lush.

Two 20mg spearmints: RELX against CLEW

CLEW Spearmint 20mg matches this can on dose and flavour family, but in a conventional slim pouch. CLEW gives you a fuller pouch with more presence in the lip, while the RELX is a thin 25 x 13mm leaf that weighs roughly a tenth of a gram. RELX also claims its DuraPress pouch releases nicotine up to twice as fast as a standard one, which is worth bearing in mind at this strength.

That low weight explains the striking 200mg per gram on our supplier’s listing. It is simply 20mg divided by a very light pouch, so judge strength by the milligrams in each portion rather than the per-gram figure.

• Nicotine content: 20mg per pouch
• 200mg/g, supplier figure
• Our level: Ultra Strong
• Format: ultra-thin AirPouch, under 1mm
• Pouches: 20
• Net: 2g a can

The spearmint is clean and cool, and in a pouch this thin it reaches the gum straight away. Every other strength and flavour is listed under the RELX brand page.
