    Why no strong minis?

    I was looking all over for some strong mini portions, and was surprised when I could not find any. They have (as we all know) strong portions; some of which have 2x more nicotine in them. Then we have mini portions, which can have as low as 50% the tobacco. So why not have a strong mini that has the same amount of nicotine as the standard portions? I would love to have some, to conceal it even more, but still have a full nic hit.

        Yeah, Mocca + is great stuff and is the only mini portion I'll ever use. Although I usually don't like flavors I got the eucalyptus by accident and loved it.

          Mocca + only have 6mg of nicotine; the same goes for the Wise Strong brand. I assume there will be some Extra Sterk minis coming out soon with levels in the 8mg range.

            I can say that Mocca+ does the trick...gives the same amount of nicotine. The only part that is missing is the flavor that you would get with a standard portion. I have juiced the portion up quite a bit before sticking it under the upper lip to help out with the flavor. Seems to work fine for me. It may or may not work for you.

              Surprisngly, there is a mini portion that has 8mg (same as regular portion).

              That mini portion is the much revered CAMEL SNUS.

                I don't care if Camel snus contained 20mg of nicotine... I can't bare the flavor.

                  Mini portion? More like a sausage-shaped regular portion.

                    I am putting together an order that I will make in a couple of days, I decided that I would include a tin of catch peppermint exclusively for at work, but I don't quite know how satisfieing 4g of nicotine will be. I work in customer service so prefer not to have a noticable bulge in my lip. I also think the price is a complete ripoff, you get half sized portions at the same price as regular portions AND there are only 20 in a can. I think I'm going to give it a try though...might change my mind lol.

                      Qlaq Qui is in half filled style so it can be rolled into a small sausage. Is 13mg strong enough for you? Tastes good too. Perfect for drinking with as the leaching draws extra flavor out.

                        Really? Wow I do have that on my order too, perhaps I should order a couple of cans of it and forget the mini. Yes 13 is plenty, a little too strong for me to use all the time but perfect for work when I am stressed out much of the time lol. Thanks for the info.

                          Yeah, man, unless you have an abnormally small upper lip, Claq Qui, as suggested, which I love and use at work all the time - or almost all portions, for that matter - is totally concealed, especially using the hotdog method. If that's what you're worried about.

                          The only times I run into a problem, and it has been a unfortunate problem, are when I smile big. Then I have to hold my hand up to my mouth and block a little. But with practice you eventually don't worry about it, in my experience.

                          I went through a mini phase early on, and enjoyed both Mocca+ brands for a short period. A regular portion just felt better, with a much greater variety. Anyway, happy trails.

                            Yes that was my concern exactly. I don't really have any interest in the minis other than concealing it at work. I have dropped the mini from my order and ordered two cans of claq qui. Thanks again!!

                              If value is a concern, you get 24 portions in a can of Lucky Strike white mini. You also get a cool tin can. And the can has an extra foil seal even after you open it.

                              Lucky Strikes has the best packaging/value out of the minis IMO. Too bad it's not my favorite taste.
