The freeze, at a strength you can actually use daily
VELO’s freeze line has always had a strength problem in Canada: Max Freeze sits at 17mg, X-Freeze at 20mg, and both are more nicotine than most people want when what they’re really after is the cold. Freeze 11mg is the missing middle. Same peppermint-and-menthol build, same sharp cold in the first minute — at VELO’s standard-strong tier instead of the top of the range.
The flavour is peppermint first, menthol close behind. The cold is the point: it lands fast, peaks around the two-minute mark, and stays present for most of the pouch. Next to Polar Mint the mint itself is less rounded and the ice does more of the work.
What 11mg feels like
For context: a typical cigarette delivers around 1–2mg of nicotine to your bloodstream over a few minutes; an 11mg pouch releases its dose gradually across 30 to 45 minutes. Onset is within a minute. Most experienced pouch users handle 11mg comfortably; complete first-time users sometimes find it sharp — start at 6mg in any brand first.
The European can is printed as 10.9mg per pouch with a four-dot strength marker. We list it as 11mg, which is how it’s sold nearly everywhere. One naming trap worth flagging: the can is labelled X-Strong, and that is not the same thing as X-Freeze (20mg). Four dots means 11mg.
Format and ingredients
VELO Freeze 11mg uses VELO’s slim all-white pouch — about 7mm wide, contoured to sit flat against the upper gum. Inside: nicotine, plant-based fibres (no tobacco leaf), peppermint and menthol flavouring, sweetener, salt, pH adjusters. Twenty pouches per can, 14 grams. Tobacco-free.
Manufactured by BAT (British American Tobacco).
Freeze vs the rest of the VELO mint family
- Freeze (11mg) — heavy cold over a peppermint base, standard-strong nicotine.
- Max Freeze (17mg) — the same freeze idea with far more nicotine.
- X-Freeze (20mg) — strongest VELO mint we carry, maximum freeze.
- Polar Mint (11mg) — same strength, rounder mint, moderate cool.
- Cool Storm (11mg) — same strength, sweeter mint profile.
- Ice Cool (10mg) — lighter on both flavour and nicotine.
If you’ve been buying Max Freeze for the cold and finding the nicotine heavier than you want, this is the straight swap.

FAQ
Is Freeze the same thing as Max Freeze? Same flavour family, different strength. Both are peppermint-menthol pouches built around a cold hit. Max Freeze runs 17mg and pushes the ice a little further; Freeze runs 11mg and is the version you can go through a can of in a day without it being much. If you already like Max Freeze, expect the flavour to read as familiar and the nicotine as noticeably lighter.
Why does the can say 10.9mg when the listing says 11mg? Because that’s the real printed figure on the European can and 11mg is the rounded number the whole market uses. Same product, same dose. We’d rather name it the way you’ll search for it and tell you what the can actually says.
How cold is it compared to ZYN Deep Freeze? Close, with a different shape. Deep Freeze builds its cold more slowly and holds it flatter; VELO Freeze hits harder in the first two minutes and then eases. Nicotine is similar (11mg both). Pick on how you like the cold delivered.
Freeze or Polar Mint at 11mg? Polar Mint if you want mint flavour with cooling underneath it. Freeze if you want the cooling to lead and the mint to support it. Same strength, same price, same format — the only real difference is which half of the profile is in front.
