Buy R4VE Nicotine Pouches in New Zealand
R4VE is a tobacco-free nicotine pouch brand built around bold fruit and dessert flavours at high strength. Produced by Insurgent Ventures in slim all-white format, R4VE targets experienced users who want intense nicotine delivery with flavour profiles that go well beyond the standard mint category – passion fruit, cola, frozen citrus, caramel, and a mixed-berry-mint blend among others. All R4VE products are 100% tobacco-free and legal to import into New Zealand for personal use under the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Act 1990.
Important: R4VE nicotine pouches contain nicotine, which is an addictive substance. These products are not recommended for non-nicotine users, people under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with cardiovascular conditions. The R4VE range starts at extra strong (9.6mg/pouch) – not suitable for beginners. Always use responsibly and keep out of reach of children and pets.
R4VE's New Strength Structure – 16mg and 32.5mg
R4VE has reformed its product lineup around two primary strength tiers: 16mg and 32.5mg. These replace the older 10mg, 30mg, and 50mg labelling used in previous batches. The new naming reflects total nicotine content per can rather than per pouch – so a "16mg" can contains pouches at approximately 9.6mg/pouch, and a "32.5mg" can contains pouches at approximately 19.5mg/pouch.
| R4VE Label | Nicotine Per Pouch | Tier |
|---|---|---|
| 16 mg | 9.6 mg/pouch | Extra Strong |
| 32.5 mg | 19.5 mg/pouch | Extreme |
Older 10mg, 30mg, and 50mg products will remain available while stock lasts and will not be restocked once sold through. If you're buying R4VE for the first time, we recommend starting with the 16mg tier.
R4VE Nicotine Strengths – Which Is Right for You?
R4VE is not an entry-level brand. The current range covers extra strong through to extreme, and is intended for users who already have an established nicotine tolerance. If you're new to pouches, we'd recommend building up through a broader range before stepping into the R4VE lineup.
| Strength Level | Nicotine Per Pouch | Recommended For | Team Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extra Strong | 9.6 mg/pouch (16mg can) | Experienced users, heavy ex-smokers | A solid entry point into R4VE. The fruit flavours hold up well at this strength without being overwhelmed by the nicotine. |
| Extreme | 19.5 mg/pouch (32.5mg can) | High-tolerance users only | Currently available in Lemoncello only. Approach with caution if stepping up from the 16mg tier. |
Expert tip: If you're moving to R4VE from a strong-tier brand like VELO or ZYN Strong, start with the 16mg (9.6mg/pouch) tier. Give it a few sessions before deciding whether to step up. The slim all-white format releases nicotine more quickly than some users expect at this strength level.
R4VE Flavours – What to Expect
R4VE's standout quality is its flavour range. Where most high-strength brands default to mint or menthol, R4VE has built its core lineup around fruit and dessert profiles – unusual in the extra strong and extreme segments. Our team's notes on what's in stock for New Zealand:
Juicy Apple (16mg)
Clean, sweet apple. One of the more straightforward fruit profiles in the R4VE range – a good starting point for users who want fruit at extra strong without anything too unusual.
La Passion Fruit (16mg)
Tropical passion fruit, well-defined and noticeably distinct from generic "tropical" blends. Our team found the flavour lasts through the full session without fading early.
Merry Cherry (16mg)
Bold cherry with a slight tartness. More authentic than the candied cherry common in lower-strength brands, which fits the R4VE profile well at this strength.
Lemoncello (16mg and 32.5mg)
Citrus-forward with the sweetness of an Italian liqueur. Available at both strength tiers, making it the only R4VE flavour where you can directly compare the experience at 9.6mg/pouch versus 19.5mg/pouch.
Skittler (16mg)
Mixed candy-style fruit, closer to a sweet shop blend than any single fruit. Works better than you'd expect at extra strong strength – the sweetness balances the nicotine hit.
Cola Explosion (16mg)
Carbonated cola character in a pouch. One of the more unusual profiles in the range and genuinely distinctive. Our team found it pairs particularly well with the slim format's longer release duration.
Frozen Citrus (16mg)
Citrus with a cooling finish. A bridge between R4VE's fruit-forward range and a more traditional cooling profile – good for users who want fruit but find straight mint pouches too intense.

R4VE Nicotine Pouches NZ – FAQs
What is the difference between the old and new R4VE strength labelling?
R4VE now labels cans by total nicotine content per can (16mg, 32.5mg) rather than the older system (10mg, 30mg, 50mg). A 16mg can contains pouches at approximately 9.6mg/pouch. A 32.5mg can contains pouches at approximately 19.5mg/pouch. If you previously bought the 30mg variety, the 16mg is the closest equivalent in terms of per-pouch strength.
Is R4VE suitable for beginners?
No. The R4VE range starts at 9.6mg/pouch (extra strong) and goes up to 19.5mg/pouch (extreme). These are only suitable for users with an established nicotine tolerance. If you're new to nicotine pouches, start with a regular or strong-tier brand first.
Which R4VE flavour is best for first-time R4VE users?
Our team recommends Juicy Apple 16mg or Frozen Citrus 16mg as an entry point. Both are in the 16mg tier (9.6mg/pouch) and have flavour profiles that work well at this strength without being overpowering. La Passion Fruit is also excellent if you want something more tropical.
How long do R4VE pouches last under the lip?
R4VE slim pouches typically deliver their nicotine effect over 20–40 minutes. Our team finds the flavour peak comes within the first 10–15 minutes, with a more sustained but milder release continuing for the remainder of the session. Most users find 30 minutes is the sweet spot.
How do I read the best-before date on R4VE cans?
R4VE uses the European date format: DD/MM/YYYY. A can labelled "15/09/2026" expires on the 15th of September 2026 – not the 9th of December. Unopened cans stored in a cool, dry place maintain full freshness for 12–18 months from production.
How quickly are R4VE pouches delivered to New Zealand?
UPS Express and UPS Saver typically deliver in 5–8 working days to New Zealand. PostNord standard takes 10–15 working days. All options include tracking – you'll receive your tracking number by email as soon as your order ships from our Swedish warehouse.
Nicotine is an addictive substance. R4VE products are intended for adult nicotine users only. Must be 18+ to purchase. Not for sale to minors.
