VELO Strong – Crispy Peppermint 8mg

Stronger than its Mini sibling, VELO Crispy Peppermint Slim 10mg pairs peppermint with sweet mint in a full-size pouch. VELO renamed it from Ice Cool, so if that is the can you remember, this is the one. There are 20 pouches per can.

VELO Crispy Peppermint: slim 10mg or Mini 8mg?

The slim pouch measures about 38mm by 12mm and holds 10mg at 14.3mg/g. VELO Mini Crispy Peppermint 8mg shrinks the pouch to roughly 30mm by 12mm and the can to 10g, with 8mg per portion. Oddly, the Mini is the more concentrated of the two at 16mg per gram, because its 8mg sits in less pouch material. Pick VELO Crispy Peppermint Slim 10mg for a fuller pouch and the higher dose, or the Mini for something smaller and more discreet.

Brisk peppermint over a sweeter mint base

VELO’s flavour notes list peppermint backed by sweet notes of mint. In practice you get a clean, brisk peppermint opening that settles into something softer, rather than the deep menthol freeze of the Freezing Peppermint cans.

How 10mg reads on VELO’s dot scale

Despite the higher dose, VELO still prints three of six dots on this can, the same tier as its 8mg slims. The extra 2mg makes it a natural next step for regular 8mg users, while anyone already on 10.9mg or above may find it mild. It is also the only 10mg peppermint in VELO’s Signature range.
