XQS Slim – Orange Squeeze Strong 8mg

Where the brand’s Orange Apple stays soft and sweet, XQS Orange Squeeze 8mg adds lemon and cooling mint for a sharper, fresher citrus. It is a Strong slim with 20 pouches to the can. It belongs to the brand’s fruit range, though the mint gives it a crisper edge than most of its neighbours.

Orange Squeeze, Orange Apple or Citrus Cooling?

Three XQS cans overlap here. XQS Orange Apple Strong 8mg pairs orange with apple and leaves out the mint. XQS Citrus Cooling Strong 8mg makes lemon the lead with mint behind it. Orange Squeeze takes the middle path: orange first, lemon for brightness and mint for a second layer of freshness. If you find Citrus Cooling too tart, this is the friendlier route into citrus with mint.

How XQS Orange Squeeze plays out

The orange note is juicy and sweet, the lemon adds a sharper zest, and the cooling mint comes in behind both. XQS names only orange and lemon as the fruit, so do not expect tropical or berry notes. Call it a breakfast-table citrus with a chill, where lemon keeps the orange from turning syrupy. XQS Orange Squeeze 8mg leans brisk rather than sweet, a fit for mornings or the post-lunch slump.

A compact slim pouch

XQS pouches weigh about 0.5g each in a 10g can, which keeps them small and discreet under the lip. At 16mg of nicotine per gram, that small pouch still delivers 8mg, rated 4 of 6 by the brand. Its slim shape lies flat against the gum, so it stays out of the way while you talk. Ten grams of pouches fill each can.
