Phiz Nicotine Pouches Australia: Every Flavor and Strength

Phiz

Flavour: choose one

Strength: 6mg

Most cans tell you everything on the lid. PHIZ tells you almost nothing, and that's the first thing worth knowing about it. The can is black, the lid carries a spray paint style smiley on a wash of colour, and the front shows neither a flavour name nor a strength figure. So you shop PHIZ by colour. Green is Peppermint and pink is Tropical. Both are 12mg a pouch, which sits in the medium band on our strength scale, and both come as a mini pouch.

The Phiz guide

PHIZ: two faces, one strength

That makes this one of the shortest decisions on the shelf. There's one strength and one format, and two flavours that sit at opposite ends of the flavour map. This page covers both cans, how to read the lid, where 12mg sits on our scale and how to choose between them. Start here, then pick a colour.

12mg12mgMediumPHIZ on our shelf is 12mg a pouch, in the medium band on our strength scale. Both cans hold mini pouches, the size printed on the lid. There are two flavours. Peppermint is sharp, crisp and cooling, and Tropical is a sweet mix of tropical fruit. It suits you if a medium can is already your usual and you like a smaller pouch.

Medium · 12mg a pouch

12mg: Peppermint and Tropical side by side

Both PHIZ cans on our shelf carry 12mg a pouch, which lands in the middle of the medium band on our scale. The format is the same too, a mini pouch in a black can. So side by side, the only thing that changes is the flavour. Peppermint is the green lid, the one whose smiley has crosses for eyes and a wide smile. It's a plain peppermint, sharp and crisp, with a cooling feel and nothing else added to it. If you like your mint straight, that's the can.

Tropical is the pink lid, where the colour fades in from yellow and orange and the smiley has tall oval eyes and a wavy, dripping smile. The flavour is sweet mixed tropical fruit, bright, and a blend of fruits in place of a single one. It sits at the other end of the flavour map from the mint, at exactly the same strength. PHIZ suits you if a medium can is already your usual and a mini pouch is the size you prefer. If you only try one, let your habit decide. If mint is what you normally buy, go green. If fruit is, go pink.

What the lid tells you

PHIZ is a brand you get to know through its can, so that's where this guide looks. The can is black. The lid shows a smiley in a spray paint style, set on a gradient of colour, with a pattern of faint letter shapes behind it. The words NICOTINE POUCHES repeat around the rim, and MINI POUCH sits on a black band at the bottom. That's the whole front of the lid.

What you won't find there is a flavour name or a strength figure. So the colour does the work. A green lid fading to yellow green, with crossed eyes and a wide smile, is Peppermint. A pink lid with oval eyes and a wavy smile is Tropical. Learn those two and you can tell the cans apart at a glance.

Where 12mg sits on our strength scale

Our scale sorts snus into four bands by the nicotine in each pouch. Light is anything under 8mg. Medium runs from 8mg up to 16mg. Strong runs from 16mg up to 25mg, and extreme is 25mg and over. PHIZ at 12mg a pouch is medium, and it sits right in the middle of that band, 4mg above where medium starts and 4mg below where strong begins. Both flavours carry the same figure, so there's no strength decision to make between them. The front of the lid doesn't print the number, so go by the 12mg in the product name on this page. If medium is the band you already shop in, PHIZ fits straight into it.

Mini, the pouch format

PHIZ comes as a mini pouch. That's printed on the lid itself, and mini is the name for a compact size of pouch. You'll often see the format listed as Mini Dry, which is the name retailers give it. PHIZ pouches are tobacco free. For the number of pouches in a can, go by the count printed on the can in your hand. Both flavours share the format, so whichever lid you choose, the pouch is the same size.

How to choose a PHIZ flavour

With two cans, the choice comes down to one question. Do you reach for mint or for fruit? Peppermint is the sharp, crisp, cooling one, a single clear flavour. Tropical is the sweet one, a bright mix of tropical fruit. Strength and format are identical, so nothing else needs weighing up. Choose the flavour family you already buy most often. And if you move between mint and fruit depending on the day, the two sit comfortably together, a green lid and a pink one at the same 12mg. Remember the colours when the cans arrive, because the lid won't spell the flavour out. If you only try one, make it the colour that matches your usual order.
