Citrus with heat instead of ice
Zest Flame belongs to VELO’s Flame family — the small group of pouches built around a warming sensation rather than menthol. The flavour is citrus peel rather than citrus juice: lemon and lime zest, with the faint bitterness real zest carries and noticeably less sugar than most fruit pouches in the range.
The heat is the part people either love or return from. It builds over the first two or three minutes, sits as a light warmth on the gum rather than a burn, and stays through the session. If every mint and fruit pouch you’ve tried has felt cold, this is the opposite experiment.
What 10mg feels like
Zest Flame is stocked at 10mg — VELO’s medium-strong tier. For context: a cigarette delivers roughly 1–2mg of nicotine to your bloodstream over a few minutes, while a 10mg pouch releases its dose gradually across 30 to 40 minutes. The hit is moderate and steady. Comfortable for daily users; first-time pouch users should start lower, at 6mg.
Format and ingredients
VELO Zest Flame 10mg uses VELO’s slim all-white pouch — about 7mm wide, contoured. Inside: nicotine, plant-based fibres (no tobacco leaf), lemon and lime zest flavouring, sweetener, salt, pH adjusters. Twenty pouches per can, 14 grams. Tobacco-free.
Manufactured by BAT (British American Tobacco).
Zest Flame vs the other VELO Flames
Three heating pouches in our VELO inventory, and they are not interchangeable:
- Zest Flame 10mg — lemon and lime peel, dry and slightly bitter, moderate heat.
- Lime Flame 10mg — lime alone, sharper and more sour, same strength.
- Mango Flame 10mg — sweet tropical fruit against the heat, the easiest of the three.
- Orange Spark 14mg — sweet orange, and a big jump in nicotine.
The short version: Zest Flame is the dry, grown-up citrus of the group. If you want sweet, take Mango Flame. If you want sour, take Lime Flame.

FAQ
What does “heating” actually mean? A warming agent replaces the menthol most pouches use. Instead of the cold rush you get from Freeze or Polar Mint, there is a gentle warmth on the gum that arrives after a couple of minutes. It does not sting, and it is not spicy — closer to the feeling of warm tea than to chilli.
Is it sour? Less than you would expect from a citrus pouch. Zest Flame is built on peel rather than juice, so it reads dry and slightly bitter instead of sharp. Lime Flame is the sour one.
How strong is the flavour over a session? Citrus fades faster than mint in any pouch. Expect a clear zest hit for the first fifteen minutes, then a quieter warm finish for the rest of the 30–40 minutes.
Does Zest Flame come in other strengths? Internationally VELO runs the Flame line from 6mg to 14mg. Our Canadian inventory carries the 10mg version. For the same heating profile at a higher dose, Orange Spark 14mg is the one we stock.
