- Five flavour names, Blueberry Ice, Fizzy Cherry, Grape Ice, Strong Mint and Triple Mango, sit in both Kurwa lines.

- A Kurwa pouch is kept in for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the user's preference.
Kurwa snus comes in two lines for readers in Portugal: Collection at 12mg per pouch and Collection Max at 43mg per pouch, so the larger figure is more than three times the smaller. The brand's lines are explained on this page, starting with the Kurwa snus range itself. Kurwa, styled K#RWA on the can, is made by MB EUROLIT EU, a European manufacturer based in Lithuania, and both lines are tobacco free nicotine pouches with 20 pouches in each can. The table below puts the two side by side, and the sections after it follow the order in which shoppers tend to ask: strength, time, flavour, then the cans themselves.
| Detail | Collection | Collection Max |
|---|---|---|
| Nicotine per pouch | 12mg | 43mg |
| Shop strength category | Medium | Extreme |
| Pouches per can | 20 | 20 |
| Nicotine per can | 240mg | 860mg |
| Contents weight per can | 15g | 16g |
| Shared flavours | Blueberry Ice, Fizzy Cherry, Grape Ice, Strong Mint, Triple Mango | Blueberry Ice, Fizzy Cherry, Grape Ice, Strong Mint, Triple Mango |
| Apple option | Double Apple | Fizzy Apple |
What Are The Kurwa Lines And How Do They Differ In Strength?
Kurwa Collection holds 12mg per pouch and Kurwa Collection Max holds 43mg per pouch, and every flavour inside a line keeps that line's figure. The gap is why the line name matters more than the flavour name when two cans look alike on a shelf in Lisbon or on a screen in Porto. Moving from Blueberry Ice to Strong Mint inside Collection leaves the nicotine untouched, and the same holds inside Collection Max.
Our shop sorts the two lines into its own categories: 12mg falls in Medium (8 to 16mg per pouch) and 43mg falls in Extreme (25mg and over). Those are shop labels, and the number per pouch remains the cleaner comparison between individual cans. The Kurwa Strengths and mg Levels in Portugal page sets the figures out in full for anyone who wants the numbers on their own.
An espresso in a Lisbon café makes a useful picture. The word espresso names the drink, but the size you ask for decides what arrives in the cup. Kurwa works in the same way, because the flavour name tells you the taste while the line name, with its mg per pouch, tells you the amount. Reading the two as a pair removes most of the guesswork, and it is the habit worth keeping for every can on the shelf.
Is The Time Under The Lip Different Between The Two Kurwa Lines?
A Kurwa pouch is kept in for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the user's preference. That range is a matter of personal choice, so the line name does not fix a session length, and the word Max describes the nicotine amount rather than a longer wait. Keeping the timing question apart from the strength question stops one from quietly deciding the other.
The full explanation sits in How long does a Kurwa last?, which treats duration as its own subject. A sensible everyday yardstick is a coffee and a conversation on a terrace in Porto, which sits comfortably inside that range. The yardstick is only a way of picturing the time, and the nicotine per pouch stays the same whatever the clock says.
Because the two questions are separate, a reader can decide each in turn. First comes the line, which settles 12mg or 43mg per pouch. Then comes the time, which belongs to the person using the pouch. Neither answer needs to be guessed from the flavour name.
Which Details Should You Check Before Choosing A Kurwa Pouch?
Check the Kurwa line, the complete flavour name and the nicotine per pouch, because a Collection pouch carries 12mg and a Collection Max pouch carries 43mg. The lid of each can carries the K#RWA logo, the line name and the flavour name, so the two details that matter most are printed in the same place. Blueberry Ice, for example, belongs to both lines, which means the flavour wording alone cannot tell you which amount you have picked.
For anyone new to the format, the practical side is covered in How Do You Use Kurwa Snus In Portugal?, which walks through placement and everyday handling. The identification habit comes first, though, because the right pouch has to be in the hand before anything else follows. Read the lid, match it to the product name, and the rest of the routine builds on a clear starting point.
A full product name works a little like giving an exact order at a counter in Braga: a shortened version can be understood, but the complete wording leaves nothing to chance. With Kurwa the complete wording is line, flavour and mg per pouch, in that order. Keeping those three together also makes a repeat order simple, since the same combination can be chosen again without relying on memory of a colour or a fruit.
Which Flavours Appear In Both Kurwa Lines?
Blueberry Ice, Fizzy Cherry, Grape Ice, Strong Mint and Triple Mango are named in Collection and Collection Max alike, five in total. Each is available at 12mg per pouch in Collection and at 43mg per pouch in Collection Max, so the same flavour name can lead to two different amounts. That creates two kinds of comparison, either different flavours at one fixed amount, or one flavour name across the two amounts.
The apple options are the exception. Double Apple exists only in Collection, at 12mg per pouch, and Fizzy Apple exists only in Collection Max, at 43mg per pouch. The two names are not interchangeable, and neither line carries both. A search for apple snus therefore needs the complete name and the line to land on the right can.
Two naming details deserve a second look. Strong Mint carries the word Strong in its name in both lines, so the label describes the flavour while the mg per pouch comes from the line. Blueberry Ice and Grape Ice carry the word Ice in the same way, as part of the flavour name and nothing more. The ordering of the flavours by taste is handled in Kurwa Flavours Ranked In Portugal: Which Snus Should You Choose?, where the question is which flavour to pick rather than how the lines are organised.
Is There A Kurwa Exclusive Line On The Portugal Shelf?
The Portugal shelf lists Kurwa Collection at 12mg per pouch and Kurwa Collection Max at 43mg per pouch, with neither listed as Exclusive. A search that includes the word Exclusive is best answered by matching the line name printed on the can, because Collection and Collection Max are the two names on this shelf. Each carries six flavours, which is twelve cans in all.
The wider brand story is told in What is Kurwa?, including the styling of the name as K#RWA. Reading the names in layers helps: Kurwa is the brand, Collection or Collection Max is the line, and the flavour name picks the option within it. Once those layers are separate, a word such as Exclusive or Max stops being a puzzle and becomes one more label to check against the figure per pouch.
For the buying side, Where can you buy Kurwa in Portugal? connects the range to the Portugal shelf. We deliver to Portugal. 18+ only. A reader in Faro or anywhere along the Algarve works from the same product names as a reader in Lisbon, so the complete name with its mg per pouch is the only reference needed.
Which Cans Make Up Kurwa Collection?
Kurwa Collection is built around six flavours, all at 12mg per pouch, with 20 pouches in each can. Kurwa Blueberry Ice 12mg, Kurwa Double Apple 12mg and Kurwa Fizzy Cherry 12mg show the arrangement clearly, since the flavour wording changes while the nicotine stays fixed. Grape Ice, Strong Mint and Triple Mango complete the line at the same 12mg per pouch.
What Makes Double Apple Different From The Other Collection Cans?
Double Apple is the only apple option in Collection, and it contains 12mg per pouch. Collection Max uses the name Fizzy Apple for its apple can, so the two apple cans differ in both name and nicotine amount. That makes the apple comparison unlike the Blueberry Ice or Fizzy Cherry comparisons, where the flavour name carries across.
How Can You Compare Collection Flavours Without Changing Strength?
Hold Collection and 12mg per pouch fixed, then compare the six names by the flavour family you have in mind. Blueberry Ice and Grape Ice share the Ice wording, Double Apple and Triple Mango each lead with a fruit, and Fizzy Cherry and Strong Mint complete the set. Because the nicotine is constant, the choice is purely about flavour, which makes it the simplest comparison on the shelf.
Which Cans Make Up Kurwa Collection Max?
Kurwa Collection Max follows the same structure at 43mg per pouch, with six flavours and 20 pouches in each can. Kurwa Blueberry Ice 43mg and Kurwa Fizzy Apple 43mg show both sides of the comparison: Blueberry Ice has a matching name in Collection, while Fizzy Apple is the apple option found only in Collection Max. Kurwa Fizzy Cherry 43mg sits beside them, with Kurwa Grape Ice 43mg, Strong Mint and Triple Mango completing the line.
What Stays Fixed When You Change A Collection Max Flavour?
The nicotine stays at 43mg per pouch whichever Collection Max flavour is chosen. Someone comparing the cherry, grape and mango cans can therefore treat the numerical part of the decision as settled and look only at taste. For a repeat order, keeping the line and figure fixed and checking the flavour is the quickest route.
Which Comparison Changes Only The Flavour Name?
Comparing Blueberry Ice with Fizzy Cherry inside Collection Max changes the flavour while holding 43mg per pouch. Comparing Blueberry Ice in Collection with Blueberry Ice in Collection Max keeps the flavour name and changes the nicotine per pouch. Both are orderly comparisons, but they answer different questions, and writing the full names side by side makes the difference visible before anything is chosen. It is rather like two entries in an address book: a shared surname is not enough to identify the person.
How Do Pouch Figures And Can Figures Fit Together?
Nicotine per pouch describes one portion, while the can figures describe all 20 pouches together. A Collection pouch at 12mg gives 240mg of nicotine per can, and its stated contents weight is 15g. A Collection Max pouch at 43mg gives 860mg of nicotine per can, and its stated contents weight is 16g. The sums are simple: 20 multiplied by 12mg is 240mg, and 20 multiplied by 43mg is 860mg.
Some products print strength as mg/g, which is nicotine per gram of pouch contents. To get mg per pouch from that, take the mg/g number and multiply it by how many grams a single pouch weighs. The weight of the whole can's contents is a different number and does not belong in that calculation. For Kurwa the figure per pouch is already stated for every can, so the comparison between Collection and Collection Max can be made directly.
Keeping the three layers apart saves confusion: mg per pouch for a single portion, mg per can for the full tin, and mg/g for concentration. A reader in Lisbon comparing a Collection can with a Collection Max can needs only the first of these to see the difference, and the second to see the total.
When the line, the mg per pouch and the full flavour name all match the can you want, the next step is the shelf itself. Readers ready to buy snus can carry those same checks across the wider shop, and the rest of our snus range is organised by the same figures per pouch.
