The Kurwa guide

Kurwa: two lines, one flavour list and a very wide gap

What do you do with a brand that makes two strengths and sets them 31mg apart? You read the lid carefully. Kurwa comes in two lines on our shelf. Collection is 12mg a pouch, and Collection Max is 43mg a pouch. Nothing sits in between. Five flavours appear in both lines, each line has one apple of its own, and the pouch is the same slim white format throughout. So the choice with Kurwa is settled in one step. Pick the line that matches the strength you already use, and the flavour follows.

This page sets the two lines side by side, lightest first, and names every can in each. After that it covers who makes Kurwa, where both figures sit on our strength scale, what is in the can and how to choose a flavour. One thing to know before you start. The lid spells the brand K#RWA, so that's the name to look for when the can is in your hand.

Collection Max43mgExtremeCollection Max is Kurwa at 43mg a pouch, which places it well inside the extreme band on our strength scale. Each can holds 20 slim white pouches. Six flavours make up the line. Five share their names with Collection, and Fizzy Apple, a green apple with a fizzy lift, is found only here. It suits you if an extreme can is already your usual.

Medium · 12mg a pouch

Collection: six flavours at 12mg

Collection is where the Kurwa range begins. Every can is 12mg a pouch, the medium band on our scale, with 20 slim white pouches inside. On the lid it reads K#RWA Collection, followed by the flavour. Start with the mint, because its name needs a word of explanation. Strong Mint is an intense, icy peppermint with a cool finish and no fruit in it at all. The word Strong describes the mint. The pouch is 12mg, like every other can in the line. Then come the two fruits with Ice in the name. Blueberry Ice is sweet, ripe blueberry, slightly tart, with a fresh mint twinge to finish. Grape Ice is sweet dark grape with something of the sweet shop about it, and the same fresh mint lift.

The other three go their own way. Fizzy Cherry is sweet, ripe cherry with a fizzy lift, in the manner of a cherry soda, and a cool finish. Triple Mango is sweet, juicy ripe mango with a smooth finish and a light cooling touch. The maker says it blends three mango varieties, which is where the name comes from. Double Apple is red and green apple together, the sweet ripe red against the crisp, tart green, with a light spicy note behind them. It is the one flavour that belongs to Collection alone. Side by side, the six cover mint, berry, grape, cherry, mango and apple at a single strength. If a medium can is already your usual, start here.

Extreme · 43mg a pouch

Collection Max: six flavours at 43mg

Collection Max takes the same idea and moves it a long way up the scale. Every can is 43mg a pouch. Our extreme band opens at 25mg, so Max sits far inside it. The pouch is still slim and white, and there are still 20 in a can. On the lid it reads K#RWA Collection Max, and that last word is the quickest way to tell the two lines apart. Five of the six flavours will be familiar. Strong Mint is a sharp, icy peppermint, cool and crisp, and here too the word Strong belongs to the mint. Blueberry Ice is sweet ripe blueberry with a slightly tart edge and a fresh mint twinge. Grape Ice is juicy dark grape with that same fresh mint lift and a light grape tartness at the end.

Fizzy Cherry is sweet, ripe cherry with a fizzy lift and a cool, slightly tangy finish. Triple Mango is rich, sweet ripe mango with a gentle cooling touch, built on what the maker describes as three mango varieties. The sixth can is the one you won't find at 12mg. Fizzy Apple is green apple, bright and tangy, with a sparkling lift and a cool finish. It is a flavour in its own right and it exists only in this line. If an extreme can is already your usual, this is the Kurwa line to look at, and the mg figure in the title is the one to go by.

Who makes Kurwa

Kurwa is made by MB EUROLIT EU in Lithuania. The company is based in Vilnius, and it describes itself as a European manufacturer specialising in the development and production of modern nicotine and alternative products. The pouches are made in the maker's own facility, and the maker's own phrase for them is tobacco free nicotine pouches.

The rest of what is known comes from the maker too. It says it controls every stage of production, from product development and ingredient selection to quality assurance and final packaging, and that it has its own production facilities and an in house laboratory. It also says its cans carry a MADE BY K#RWA marking. Both lines on our shelf come from the same maker and are built to the same pattern. One company, two lines, and the difference between them is a number.

Where 12mg and 43mg sit on our scale

Our strength scale sorts every can by the nicotine in a single pouch. Light is anything under 8mg. Medium runs from 8mg up to 16mg. Strong runs from 16mg up to 25mg. Extreme is 25mg and over. Collection at 12mg sits squarely in the middle of the medium band. Collection Max at 43mg sits deep in the extreme band, 18mg past the point where that band begins.

Notice what is missing. No Kurwa can on our shelf falls in the strong band, so the range moves from medium to extreme without a step between. That makes the two lines a choice between two habits, and the shared flavour names should not blur it. Five flavours carry the same name across both, but the 31mg between them is the fact that matters. Choose by the band you already use, and then by the flavour. If you only check one thing before you buy, make it the number.

What is in the can

Both lines share one format. Every Kurwa can on our shelf holds 20 pouches, and every pouch is slim and white. By the maker's figures a Collection can weighs 15g and a Collection Max can weighs 16g. The lid carries the words NICOTINE POUCHES, the K#RWA logo, the line name and the flavour. Our product titles shorten that to Kurwa, the flavour and the mg figure, so a can titled Kurwa Grape Ice 43mg reads K#RWA Collection Max Grape Ice in the hand. The flavour names match the lid exactly. Because the count and the format never change, the only things left to decide are the line and the flavour.

How to choose a Kurwa flavour

Settle the line first, then think about what you reach for elsewhere. If mint is your habit, Strong Mint is the only can in either line with no fruit in it, an icy peppermint from start to finish. If you like fruit with a little freshness on top, Blueberry Ice and Grape Ice are the pair to look at. Blueberry Ice is the slightly tart one, and Grape Ice is the sweeter, darker one.

If you like the taste of a fizzy drink, Fizzy Cherry comes in both lines, and Fizzy Apple joins it at 43mg. Triple Mango is the sweet, tropical choice in both. Double Apple, at 12mg only, is red and green apple with a light spice to it. Double Apple and Fizzy Apple are separate flavours, so choose either for what it is. If you only try one, make it the flavour you would order from any other brand, in the line that matches your strength.
