VELO in India: the complete guide to the brand

VELO is a nicotine pouch brand made by BAT, known for its wide flavour range, moist pouches and limited-edition cans. In India you can order it from Pouchman, with cans from ₹999 and cash or UPI payment on delivery. The rest of this guide explains how the VELO range is put together, so you can choose a can without guessing.

What makes VELO different

Every pouch brand has a personality. VELO's is variety.

• Lots of flavours. VELO goes well beyond mint into mango, grape, citrus, berries and odder options like elderflower. Across our listings, a bigger share of VELO's range is fruit than ZYN's.
• A moist pouch. VELO pouches tend to be moister than ZYN's drier white pouches, so flavour and tingle tend to arrive a little faster. Some people love that. Others prefer a slower start.
• Mood names. VELO flavours come with a feel word attached: Crispy, Breezy, Freezing, Bright, Icy. "Freezing" and "Icy" mean extra cooling. "Breezy" and "Bright" are lighter and sweeter.
• Limited editions. VELO regularly releases seasonal and sponsorship cans, such as the McLaren editions. They're priced above the core range and are one-offs.

VELO product lines you'll see

You'll see three kinds of VELO cans on our shelf:

Core VELO

The everyday range: Crispy Peppermint, Bright Spearmint, Tropical Mango, Ruby Berry, Purple Grape, Orange Spark and others. Most core cans sit between 4mg and 10mg, with a few flavours offered at higher strengths.

VELO Shift

A newer VELO line in fruit and mint, with names such as Hot Grape, Hot Peach, Hot Dragonfruit and Hot Spearmint. We list them at 8mg and ₹1,199 a can.

The strong end

The 14mg and 17mg cans of Freezing Peppermint, Crispy Peppermint, Bright Spearmint and Breezy Mango, which sit in our Strong band. Peppermint Storm at 11mg is the top of Medium. These are for people who already know what 10mg feels like and want more.

Every VELO strength, with prices

Here is VELO laid out by milligrams of nicotine per pouch, with the starting price on our shelf as of 14 October 2026:

Bands follow our shop-wide scale: Light 1.5mg to 6mg, Medium 7mg to 12mg, Strong 13mg to 20mg. No VELO reaches Extra strong (21mg and up). Limited editions aren't in the table because their prices vary. Current prices and stock are always on the VELO collection.

A useful quirk: several VELO flavours come in more than one strength. Crispy Peppermint, for example, is listed at 8mg, 10mg and 17mg. If you find a flavour you like, you can move up or down without changing taste. Our strength guide explains when that's worth doing.

Which VELO should you start with?

• First pouch ever: a Light 4mg or 6mg can. Bright Spearmint 4mg if you like mint, Tropical Mango 6mg if you'd rather taste fruit.
• Already a daily nicotine user who finds 6mg easy: Crispy Peppermint at 8mg or 10mg, both Medium. It's the easiest VELO to keep in rotation.
• Want something unusual: Zesty Elderflower or one of the Shift flavours. They're very different from anything in the ZYN range.
• Experienced and want strong: Freezing Peppermint. It's the coldest VELO and sits at the top of the strength ladder.

Stock: the honest picture

VELO is imported and arrives in batches, and it's the brand that sells out fastest on our shelf. You'll often see some VELO cans available and others marked sold out. That's normal between batches and doesn't mean we've dropped the brand.

When the VELO can you want isn't available:

1. Check the in-stock collection for what's ready to ship.
2. Look at CLEW, which covers many of the same flavour families (mango, watermelon, blueberry, mint, coffee) at 5mg, 10mg, 15mg and 20mg.
3. Look at ZYN if you want a drier, slower pouch.
