The strongest pouches at 24Nico sit in the Ultra tier — 13.1 mg per pouch and above — with selected products at the top end of that range. The exact line-up changes as brands refresh, so check the mg-per-pouch figure on the can rather than relying on marketing language.
"100mg" usually refers to mg per gram of pouch material, not mg per pouch. A pouch labelled 100 mg/g in a small mini format can deliver less actual nicotine than a 12 mg-per-pouch product in a larger format. Always check the mg-per-pouch number, which is the figure that tells you how much nicotine is in the pouch you're using.
There's no single answer — it depends on your tolerance, how often you use pouches, and how your body reacts. If you feel dizzy, nauseous or get a racing pulse, the pouch is too strong for you and a lower tier is the right move.
Nicotine pouches at any strength contain nicotine, which is addictive. Ultra pouches deliver more of it, and side effects are more likely if you're new to that level. They are intended for experienced adult users only.
Shorter than a regular pouch. 15–30 minutes is often enough at the Ultra tier. If you start to feel uncomfortable, remove it.
You can, but it's rarely a good idea. The body adjusts to nicotine gradually, and skipping tiers usually causes more side effects than it solves. Step up one tier at a time.
"Strongest" is a word that gets used loosely in the nicotine pouch market. There's no single number that defines it, brands measure strength in different ways, and the product at the very top of the scale isn't right for most adult users.
This guide explains what "strongest" actually means in 2026, what mg ranges Ultra covers, who very high-strength pouches are for, and how to use them sensibly. It's written for adults who already use nicotine pouches and are looking for something stronger than their current routine. If you're new to nicotine pouches, start with our strength guide instead.
Defenition
There are two ways nicotine pouch strength gets described, and they don’t always mean the same thing. Some brands focus on nicotine concentration inside the pouch material itself, while others focus on the total mg per pouch — the figure that matters most in real-world use because it reflects how much nicotine is delivered in a single pouch.
Mg per pouch is the clearest way to compare nicotine strength in real-world use. It reflects the total nicotine delivered in a single pouch rather than the concentration inside the pouch material itself.
Ultra-strength nicotine pouches are designed for experienced users with established nicotine tolerance. Most Ultra products start above 13 mg per pouch, with some going significantly higher depending on brand and format.
24Nico groups nicotine pouches into six tiers, from no nicotine at all up to the highest mg-per-pouch products on the market. The strongest products live in the top two tiers:
Nicotine Free: 0 mg |
Low: 0.1–3 mg |
Normal: 3.1–6 mg |
Strong: 6.1–9 mg |
Xstrong: 9.1–13 mg |
Ultra: 13.1 mg and above |
Ranges vary by brand and format. The most reliable way to compare is always the mg-per-pouch figure printed on the can.
A few of the strongest products on our shelves right now, picked to show the spread inside the Ultra tier:
- Siberia All White — 33 mg per pouch. The most powerful range we stock, available in slim and large formats. A pronounced cooling mint with a direct release. Top of the scale and not for anyone new to high-strength pouches.
- 77 GHOST Mini Super Strong — 20 mg per pouch. Ultra strength in a mini format for users who want a discreet pouch without dropping mg. Mint base with a strong cooling note.
- FUMi Freezy Mint Ultra Strong — 15 mg per pouch. Sits at the lower end of the Ultra tier — a sensible step up for users moving from Xstrong who don't want to jump straight to the very top.
These are a snapshot of the current range. Sortiment changes as brands launch and refresh products, so check the Ultra strong category page for the live line-up.
Nicotine pouches are smoke-free, but they aren't risk-free, and the higher you go on the strength scale the more carefully you should treat them. They contain nicotine, which is addictive, and high doses can cause:
These effects are signals from your body that the dose is too high or that you're using too many pouches in a short time. The right response is to step down a tier, not push through.
Ultra pouches are intended for adults aged 18 and over, are not suitable for non-smokers, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or anyone with a heart condition. If you have health concerns, speak to a healthcare professional before changing your routine.
If you're moving up to Xstrong or Ultra, four habits make a real difference:
1. Use one pouch at a time, not two. Doubling up at high strength is the fastest way to overdo it.
2. Shorten your session. An Ultra-tier pouch doesn't need to stay in for the full 60 minutes. 15–30 minutes is often enough.
3. Space them out. If you'd normally use a pouch every couple of hours, that interval should grow as the strength does.
4. Pay attention to the first 10 minutes. That's when the nicotine release peaks. If you feel dizzy, lightheaded or nauseous, take it out.

Strength alone doesn't make a good pouch. The strong pouches that adult users come back to also tend to:
- Hold flavour through the session. A high-strength pouch that goes flat after 10 minutes isn't doing its job.
- Stay comfortable under the lip. Material quality matters more at higher strengths because you'll feel the pouch more.
- Release evenly. Some pouches deliver almost everything in the first few minutes. Better products spread the release across the whole session.
- Come from a brand you can verify. Counterfeit high-strength pouches do exist. Stick to known retailers and recognised brand names.
