How Do Chewing Tobaccos Differ?
Chewing tobacco is traditionally made from salt, water, tobacco, and flavors. To categorize Chewing Bags, the following points are mainly considered:
- Nicotine content (ranging from 0 mg/g to over 40 mg/g)
- Chewing tobacco strength (nicotine-free, normal, strong, very strong, extremely strong)
- Size of nicotine pouches (Large, Normal, Slim, Super Slim, Mini)
- Format (Loose Chewing Bag, Original Portion, White Portion, White Dry Portion)
- Flavors (including mint, berries, menthol)
The strength of chewing tobacco is determined not only by nicotine content but also by moisture and pH level, which affect the perception of nicotine. The moisture content indicates how quickly the nicotine kick sets in. A moist chewing tobacco feels stronger because the nicotine reaches the brain directly through saliva.
The pH value indicates how much nicotine can be absorbed. The higher the pH value, the more nicotine can be absorbed. Finally, flavors can also contribute to how intensely we experience the taste.
