NÜM vs Rogue: Strengths, Flavors and Pouch Count

NÜM nicotine pouches are for adults 21+ who already use nicotine. Rogue is one of the best-known US pouch brands, and NÜM is a small new one. Here is how they compare on the facts that are easy to verify: strengths, flavors, can size and pouch format.

Same pack idea, different strengths

Both brands sell in 5-can packs of 20-pouch cans, so a pack of either is 100 pouches. The big difference is where the strengths sit. Standard Rogue is 3mg and 6mg. Rogue Max adds 9mg, 12mg and 15mg in a slim, moist pouch. NÜM's range is 6mg, 12mg and 24mg.

That gives a clear overlap at 6mg (NÜM and Rogue) and 12mg (NÜM and Rogue Max). Below 6mg, Rogue has the 3mg option and NÜM does not. Above 15mg, NÜM's 24mg is the only choice of the two. The 6mg nicotine pouches page and the 12mg nicotine pouches page cover the two overlapping strengths in more detail, and the 24mg nicotine pouches page covers the top end.

Flavors: Rogue's long list vs NÜM's short one

Rogue lists 13 flavors, including Wintergreen, Peppermint, Spearmint, Mango, Apple, Berry, Honey Lemon, Citrus, Cinnamon and an unflavored Original. Its Max line covers four of those: Wintergreen, Spearmint, Citrus and Blue Raspberry.

The spearmint and peppermint overlap is where a direct comparison makes sense. Spearmint is NÜM's softer, naturally sweet mint, and Cool Mint is the crisp, icy peppermint. Miami Mint adds a tropical twist, which is closer to a fruit-mint than any single Rogue flavor. For fruit, NÜM's Pink Burst Line offers Pink Lemonade, Frosé and Guava Glow. Taste is personal, so use the NÜM Flavor Guide rather than any ranking.

Pouch format and flavor character

Rogue describes its standard pouch as larger and all-white, and Rogue Max as slim and moist. Dry-fill pouches start without added moisture and activate with saliva, so flavor can build more gradually, according to one retailer's write-up (Roon). NÜM does not publish its pouch moisture, so the fairest comparison is flavor-first: a crisp peppermint (Cool Mint), a soft spearmint (Spearmint) or a mint with a fruit twist (Miami Mint). Try one flavor at the strength you already use, and read the NÜM Flavor Guide for how each one tastes.

Use time and shipping

Rogue says its pouches last "up to one hour". NÜM does not publish a use-time figure of its own; see how long nicotine pouches last for the general range manufacturers and retailers quote.

NÜM ships by UPS within one business day, and every order is age-verified (21+) before you shop.

Which should you choose?

  • Choose Rogue if you want the widest flavor list, or a 3mg option.
  • Choose NÜM if you want a mint-focused range with a 24mg top strength, or a fruit line alongside it.
