VELO’s flagship mint
Polar Mint is to VELO what Cool Mint is to ZYN — the default flavour, the most-bought, the one a friend hands you with no preamble. The flavour is clean peppermint with a menthol cool finish. Not aggressive, not too sweet, balanced enough that it works as a daily driver without flavour fatigue.
If you’ve used ZYN Cool Mint and want to try the equivalent VELO option, this is it. The flavour profile is very similar (clean peppermint, moderate cooling) — most users report that the difference between Polar Mint and Cool Mint at the same nicotine level is small but identifiable. Polar Mint tends to read slightly drier; Cool Mint slightly sweeter.
What 11mg feels like
VELO Polar Mint is stocked at 11mg in our Canadian inventory — VELO’s standard-strong tier. 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.
If you want stronger Polar Mint, the `velo polar mint 14mg` search points to Polar Mint Intense — the same flavour at higher strength, sold as a separate product. We carry that one too. The `velo polar mint 10mg` searches reflect older labeling; the current standard is 11mg.
Format and ingredients
VELO Polar Mint 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. Tobacco-free.
Manufactured by BAT (British American Tobacco).

FAQ
How does VELO Polar Mint compare to ZYN Cool Mint? Very similar overall — both are clean peppermint with moderate menthol cool at 11mg. Most users report a small but identifiable difference: Polar Mint runs slightly drier, Cool Mint slightly sweeter. Side by side, you can tell them apart; either one on its own is unmistakably “strong peppermint pouch.”

Does Polar Mint 14mg exist? Yes — that’s Polar Mint Intense 14mg, a separate product with the same flavour at higher strength. The “Intense” label is VELO’s way of distinguishing the stronger variant. We carry it.
Is Polar Mint a good first VELO? Yes, for users with some pouch experience. If you’ve never used pouches at all, start at 6mg in any brand first (lower-strength options aren’t currently in our VELO Polar Mint inventory). Once comfortable at 6mg, Polar Mint 11mg is the natural step up.
