Tobacco-free Snus (Nicotine Pouches) vs Vapes

In this section we will give our read on the facts regarding both pouches and vapes so you can make your own mind up. We have used and enjoy both options, having used them both for years. In fact, we have one particular founder who we are actively trying to build the pouches for in order to switch them off the vapes.
