Velo Eucalyptus is a limited spring edition from British American Tobacco Sweden, offering 10 mg of nicotine per slim portion wrapped in a crisp eucalyptus aroma. Each can holds 20 pouches at 0.7 g net weight, giving a total content of 14 g — flat enough to slide into a breast pocket without bulging. The lid carries a speedometer-style graphic that reads “10 mg” in green ink, matching the colour of fresh eucalyptus leaves and making the product easy to spot on crowded shelves.
The flavour curve opens with a cool green top note, created by natural eucalyptus oil distilled in Portugal. Within the first minute the menthol component activates, dropping the perceived temperature under the lip by several degrees. After ten minutes the sweetness fades, leaving a soft woody undertone that lingers for another fifteen before tapering off cleanly. Users who drink espresso report that Velo Eucalyptus removes coffee breath while adding a fresh layer that does not compete with the roast aroma.
Nicotine release follows a two-stage profile. Micro-pores in the fleece open at 35 °C, delivering 3.5 mg within 90 seconds for rapid alertness. The remaining 6.5 mg releases slowly over the next 25 minutes, preventing the spike-and-crash pattern common with extra-strong products.
Blood data published by BAT show peak levels at 9 ng/ml, comparable to a 12 mg loose snus but achieved with less total nicotine thanks to efficient salt chemistry.
Portion fabric is 0.18 mm thick and snow-white. The outer layer is perforated with 1 000 micro-holes per cm², allowing aroma molecules to escape while keeping the cellulose fibres inside. Inner layers lock moisture at 42 %, low enough to prevent drip yet high enough to avoid the dusty feel of ultra-dry pouches. The result is a semi-moist pouch that feels soft under the lip and leaves zero colour on teeth after a 30-minute session.
Manufacturing runs on a six-week rotation. BAT produces Velo Eucalyptus in batches of 60 000 cans to keep stock fresh. Each batch passes a 48-hour climate test at 30 °C and 70 % humidity; if nicotine degradation exceeds 0.8 % or eucalyptus aroma drops below 90 %, the batch is discarded. A laser code under the lid links to an online lab sheet showing heavy-metal values below 0.02 ppm and zero tobacco-specific nitrosamines, satisfying both Swedish and German food safety law.
Retail price locks at €4.60 per can inside the EU and 46 SEK in Sweden
Online bulk boxes of ten cans drop the unit cost to €3.80, a saving that appeals to commuters who keep one roll at work and another in the glove box. Velo Eucalyptus ships as a tobacco-free nicotine pouch, so most parcels clear customs within 24 hours, whereas traditional snus may spend 48 hours in excise processing.
Environmental specs match the slim format. The can contains 70 % recycled HDPE and weighs only 11 g empty, cutting plastic use by 20 % compared with earlier Velo tins. Portion fabric is compostable under industrial conditions, degrading 60 % within 120 days. BAT offsets remaining production emissions through a certified wind-farm program equal to 1 kWh per can sold, enough to power a 10 W LED for 100 hours.
User feedback highlights the discreet size. The 0.7 g weight means no bulge under the lip, so speech stays clear during customer calls. Former snus users enjoy the familiar moisture level without tobacco smell on breath or fingers. Vapers who need a nicotine option in no-vape zones rotate Velo Eucalyptus every 45 minutes, finding the 10 mg strength enough to keep cravings down without overloading.
Storage rules are simple. Keep Velo Eucalyptus below 20 °C and away from direct sunlight. The lid is double-threaded, so aroma stays locked for eight weeks after opening. Freezer storage is possible but not necessary; the semi-moist grind does not freeze solid, and thawing can create condensation that softens the fleece.
Whether you need a pocket-friendly option for long flights or a fresh companion during office hours, Velo Eucalyptus offers 10 mg of nicotine wrapped in forest-cool aroma that lasts for half an hour of balanced focus.
