Wintery Watermelon, moved up to 14mg
Picture the plate of watermelon that comes out at the end of a summer barbecue, then a breath of peppermint drifting over it. That is the whole idea behind Wintery Watermelon, one of the fruit and mint pairings Velo makes under BAT. The UK lid spells it Wintry, our shelf spells it Wintery, and inside it is the same recipe either way: juicy melon in front, peppermint behind. This 14mg can is the middle one of three strengths in the flavour. Same melon, more behind it.
Melon juice first, peppermint second
The opening is all watermelon, sweet and watery and bright, like the first bite of a slice that has been sat in the fridge. A moment later the peppermint rises underneath, fresh rather than frosty, and keeps the sweetness from getting sticky. The two hold their places right through the load, fruit at the front and mint at the back, without one crowding the other. It finishes clean, with a last trace of melon and a cool note on the gum. No messing about, just a summer fruit with a fresh breeze through it.
14mg a pouch, five dots on the lid
Each pouch holds 14mg of nicotine. On our scale that is the top end of the medium band, which runs from 8mg to 16mg, so it is as far as medium goes before strong begins. Velo's ladder climbs through 4mg, 6mg, 8mg, 10mg and 10.9mg to 14mg and then 17mg at the very top, and this can sits on the second rung from the summit. The maker marks it five dots out of six. Wintery Watermelon at 10mg sits below it and Wintery Watermelon at 17mg above it. Slim white pouches, 20 in the can. Proper medium snus with real weight behind it.

For melon fans after a bigger number
This one suits the fruit snus regular who has been happy on the 10mg Wintery Watermelon and now wants the same melon with more under it. It also suits anyone on the 14mg mints who fancies a sweeter flavour without dropping strength. If the next step appeals, Velo Wintery Watermelon 17mg is the same fruit at the top of the ladder. For three berries and a cool lift at this exact number, Velo Icy Berries 14mg is the neighbour to try. Pick your melon and give it a go.
