- FUMI 8mg is the busiest strength on our US shelf, with eleven cans.
- Both Mini cans, Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg, are 4mg per pouch.

- Every FUMI strength sits in the Light or Medium band of our scale.
FUMI comes in four strengths on our US shelf: 4mg, 8mg, 11mg and 15mg of nicotine per pouch. Most of the range sits at 4mg and 8mg, while a short run of mint and fiery cans carries 11mg and 15mg for adults across the US who want a higher number. Every can in our FUMI nicotine pouches collection fits one of those four figures, and the chart below lines them up side by side. For adults 21 and over.
Picking a FUMI can works a little like grabbing milk from a grocery store cooler in Chicago or Los Angeles. The cap color changes from one dairy to the next, but the percentage printed on the carton means the same thing everywhere, and that printed number is what settles the choice. FUMI cans are color coded by flavor, which makes a shelf quick to scan, while the mg figure on the can gives the strength. So, the chart and the sections below start with the number and leave the color to the flavor.
| Strength per pouch | Our scale | Standard cans | Mini cans |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4mg | Light | Blackcurrant, Chilled Cherry 2.0, Freezy Mint, Tangy Strawberry, Watermelon Mint | Freezy Mint Mini, Strawberry Mini |
| 8mg | On the point where Light (1 to 8mg) meets Medium (8 to 16mg) | Blackcurrant, Chilled Cherry 2.0, Fiery Lime, Fiery Mango, Fiery Mint, Green Apple, Minty Blueberry, Salty Raspberry, Spearmint, Tangy Strawberry, Watermelon Mint | None |
| 11mg | Medium | Freezy Mint, Spearmint | None |
| 15mg | Medium | Fiery Lime, Fiery Peach, Freezy Mint, Spearmint | None |
How Does FUMI Strength Sit on Our US Strength Scale?
Every FUMI strength sits in the Light or Medium band of the scale we use across our US shelf, and none reaches Strong or Extreme. We grade every pouch by its nicotine per pouch: Light runs from 1 to 8mg, Medium from 8 to 16mg, Strong from 16 to 25mg, and Extreme covers 25mg and over. That puts FUMI 4mg comfortably inside Light, and FUMI 8mg on the point where our Light band (1 to 8mg) meets our Medium band (8 to 16mg). FUMI 11mg and FUMI 15mg both land in Medium, with 15mg sitting just below the upper edge of that band.
Across the whole shop, strengths run from 3mg to 150mg per pouch, so FUMI occupies the lower end of a long ladder with plenty of rungs above it. That spread is context rather than a target, since a higher number is simply a different product, not a level to work through. The scale exists so that a reader in New York and a reader in Houston can compare two brands on identical terms, without leaning on whatever strength words a brand prints on its own cans. The mg per pouch figure compares the same way on every label, and that is why this page counts in milligrams.
How Long Does a FUMI Pouch Stay In at Each Strength?
A FUMI pouch is kept in for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the user's preference, and that window applies at 4mg just as it does at 15mg. Strength changes the amount of nicotine in the pouch, while the length of a session is a personal call each adult makes for themselves. The fuller picture on timing sits in our guide to how long a FUMI lasts.
Placement matters at every strength, and it stays the same whichever number is on the can. A pouch rests between the upper lip and gum, stays put rather than being chewed, and comes out when the session is done, with a fresh spot for the next one. The full routine, written for a first pouch as well as a daily one, is laid out in how to use FUMI. Keeping placement steady also makes strengths easier to compare, because the only thing changing from one can to the next is the figure printed on it.
Does a Mint FUMI Feel Stronger Than a Fruit FUMI at the Same mg?
A mint FUMI and a fruit FUMI at the same mg contain the same nicotine per pouch, though the mint can seem sharper because of the cooling it brings. Menthol triggers the cold sensing receptors in the mouth, so a minty pouch can feel more immediate without any change to the figure on the can. This is what people mean by perceived strength, and it explains why two pouches with identical numbers can leave different impressions on the same afternoon.
Once the number is settled, the order of preference among the flavors is set out in which FUMI flavor is best. Format is a separate detail from strength: two Mini cans exist, Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg, and both sit at 4mg per pouch, a split explained in full in the FUMI lines. As such, comparing a Mini mint with a standard fruit can changes two things at once, and a fairer test holds one of them still.
How Do You Read the mg Figure on a FUMI Can?
The mg figure on a FUMI can is nicotine per pouch, the one number that compares fairly across every brand on our US shelf. Some listings show mg per gram instead, which describes the filling by weight rather than a single portion. To turn mg per gram into mg per pouch, multiply it by the weight of one pouch in grams, and the result is the figure worth comparing. Every FUMI number on this page is already stated per pouch, so the chart can be read straight across without any arithmetic.
Color coding helps with the other half of the job. FUMI cans match their colors to their flavors, which makes a drawer full of cans easy to sort, while the mg figure on each can gives the strength, so one flavor name can appear at several different numbers. Background on the brand itself, and how the range fits together, is covered in what FUMI is. Readers in Miami, Texas and everywhere in between who want to know how a can reaches them will find that answer in where to buy FUMI in the US.
Which FUMI Pouches Come in 4mg?
Seven FUMI cans come in 4mg per pouch, five standard cans and two Mini cans. This is the lowest FUMI strength and also a wide spread of flavor families, running from berry and cherry through to mint and melon, which makes it an easy place to explore flavor while the number stays low.
Standard 4mg Cans
Fumi Blackcurrant 4mg leads the berry side, with Fumi Tangy Strawberry 4mg and Fumi Chilled Cherry 2.0 4mg beside it. Fumi Freezy Mint 4mg and Fumi Watermelon Mint 4mg bring the mint names to this strength. Four of these five also come at 8mg, so a flavor settled on here has a next number waiting in the same name, while Fumi Freezy Mint goes from 4mg straight to 11mg and 15mg.
Mini 4mg Cans
Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg are the two Mini cans, and both sit at 4mg per pouch. They suit a packed subway car in New York as easily as a long shift anywhere else, since the strength is simply 4mg whichever format a reader picks. Both Mini cans state the same 4mg as their standard relatives, so the choice between them is about format and flavor rather than nicotine.
Which FUMI Pouches Come in 8mg?
Eleven FUMI cans come in 8mg per pouch, which makes 8mg the busiest strength in the range on our US shelf. It is also where the flavor list picks up its most unusual names, with salty, fiery and minty twists on familiar fruit, so a reader who likes variety will find most of it here.
Fruit Cans at 8mg
Fumi Chilled Cherry 2.0 8mg carries the cherry flavor up from 4mg, alongside Fumi Blackcurrant 8mg, Fumi Tangy Strawberry 8mg and Fumi Green Apple 8mg. Fumi Salty Raspberry 8mg is the 8mg can for readers who want raspberry. Of these, Fumi Green Apple 8mg and Fumi Salty Raspberry 8mg are offered only at 8mg, so for those two flavors this is the one number on offer.
Fiery Cans at 8mg
Fumi Fiery Lime 8mg, Fumi Fiery Mango 8mg and Fumi Fiery Mint 8mg make up the fiery group at this strength. Fumi Fiery Lime is the one fiery flavor offered at both 8mg and 15mg per pouch, so a reader can move between those two numbers inside one flavor name. Fumi Fiery Mango 8mg and Fumi Fiery Mint 8mg are offered only at 8mg.
Mint and Mint Blend Cans at 8mg
Fumi Spearmint 8mg is the plain mint at this strength, while Fumi Watermelon Mint 8mg and Fumi Minty Blueberry 8mg mix mint with fruit. Spearmint continues to 11mg and 15mg, so it covers three strengths under one name, which is the longest straight run of numbers in a single FUMI flavor alongside Freezy Mint.
Which FUMI Pouches Reach 11mg and 15mg?
Six FUMI cans sit above 8mg, two at 11mg and four at 15mg, and all six fall in the Medium band of our scale. Fumi Freezy Mint 11mg and Fumi Spearmint 11mg are the only 11mg cans, so the step from 8mg to 11mg is a mint step on our US shelf.
At 15mg, Fumi Freezy Mint 15mg and Fumi Spearmint 15mg return, joined by Fumi Fiery Lime 15mg and Fumi Fiery Peach 15mg. That makes 15mg the highest FUMI figure we carry, close to double the 8mg cans and just under the top of our Medium band. Fumi Fiery Peach 15mg is offered only at 15mg. The mints, by contrast, give a reader a choice of rungs: Freezy Mint at 4mg, 11mg and 15mg, and Spearmint at 8mg, 11mg and 15mg. Fiery Lime sits at 8mg and 15mg, with nothing between.
Which FUMI Strength Works as a Starting Point?
A reader new to nicotine pouches can begin with Fumi Blackcurrant 4mg or another 4mg can, the lowest FUMI strength, and choose a familiar flavor so the number is the only new thing. Adults who already use another brand have a more precise reference, which is the mg per pouch of the can they enjoy now, matched as closely as possible on the FUMI chart. Either way, the number comes first and the flavor follows.
The four FUMI numbers read like the grades on a gas pump anywhere from Texas to California: each is printed plainly, each sits in a fixed order, and the next one up is always visible before anyone chooses it. That being said, moving one number at a time with the flavor held steady keeps it clear which change made the difference. Blackcurrant, Chilled Cherry 2.0, Tangy Strawberry and Watermelon Mint all run from 4mg to 8mg, Spearmint runs from 8mg to 15mg, and Freezy Mint spans 4mg to 15mg, so most readers can climb or step back inside a flavor they already know.
We deliver to the US, and every FUMI strength in the chart above shares a shelf with the other brands we carry.
