WAKEY Frozen Berries vs. W1NNAS Blueberry vs. POP Blueberry Mint: which caffeine snus is best?

Berry, cool and nicotine-free: in this comparison, three strong energy pouches with blueberry or berry flavour go head to head. We compare WAKEY Frozen Berries, W1NNAS Blueberry and POP Blueberry Mint.

All three flavours are nicotine- and tobacco-free, are used under the upper lip and are often called caffeine snus . There are clear differences, however, in strength, flavour, moisture and value for money.

While W1NNAS contains the most caffeine per pouch at 150 mg, WAKEY and POP each offer 20 pouches at a significantly lower price. In terms of flavour, WAKEY and W1NNAS are close together. POP on the other hand scores with the most intense aroma, the highest moisture and a particularly strong cooling effect.

WAKEY Frozen Berries 100 mg: berry-fresh and great value

Strength: 100 mg caffeine/pouch | Format: Slim | Pouches: 20/can | Price: €5.99/can, or around €0.30/pouch

WAKEY Frozen Berries combines blueberry and blackberry with a cool, slightly minty freshness. Each can contains 20 slim pouches with 100 mg of caffeine each. It also contains vitamins A, C, D, E and B12, among others. The flavour is made in Sweden and is sugar-free, vegan and free from tobacco and nicotine. 

When you open the can, the smell is at first reminiscent of W1NNAS Blueberry. WAKEY , but has a noticeably fresher and slightly minty undertone. The aroma is pleasantly berry-like, without smelling as sweet or intense as POP Blueberry Mint.

The pouches are well made and almost identical in size and shape to the POP pouches. In terms of moisture, too, WAKEY is roughly on a par with W1NNAS. During use, however, the pouch quickly becomes a little softer and moister.

Flavour-wise, WAKEY impresses with a successful blend of berries and freshness. The cooling effect is clearly noticeable, but not as intense as with POP. As a result, the berry aroma stays clearly recognisable and isn't completely covered by the mint.

Perfect for: Users looking for a good-value, balanced energy pouch with berry flavour and a pleasant fresh kick.

Why this flavour stands out: WAKEY offers 20 high-quality pouches with 100 mg of caffeine for just €5.99. Flavour, quality and price are particularly well balanced here.

W1NNAS Blueberry 150 mg: the strongest caffeine snus in the comparison

Strength: 150 mg caffeine/pouch | Format: Slim | Pouches: 13/can | Regular price: €12.99/can, or around €1.00/pouch

W1NNAS Blueberry is the strongest flavour in this comparison with 150 mg of caffeine per pouch. However, a can contains only 13 energy pouches. Besides caffeine, it contains taurine, vitamin B12 and xylitol. The pouches are sugar-free, vegan and free from nicotine and tobacco.

The W1NNAS pouches are slightly smaller than the pouches from WAKEY and POP. In return, they feel more compact and quite plump. There's nothing to fault in the workmanship: the pouches are cleanly sealed, sturdy and make a high-quality impression.

When you open the can, you're greeted by a strong blueberry smell. Compared with POP , the aroma seems a bit more natural and less sweet. The smell is similar to WAKEY Frozen Berries, but W1NNAS lacks the pronounced mint or cooling note.

Flavour-wise, too, W1NNAS offers an intense, refreshing blueberry aroma. The pouch tastes fruity and rounded without seeming overly artificial. Thanks to the higher caffeine content, however, it has a little more natural caffeine bitterness than the two 100 mg products.

With 150 mg, W1NNAS delivers the strongest single kick. The price, on the other hand, is comparatively high. A can with only 13 pouches normally costs €12.99. At the time of our price check, the flavour was on offer for €9.99, bringing the price per pouch down to around €0.77. Even on offer, W1NNAS remains significantly more expensive than WAKEY and POP. 

Perfect for: Experienced caffeine users looking for as much caffeine as possible in a single, compact pouch.

Why this flavour stands out: W1NNAS offers the highest caffeine strength per pouch at 150 mg and a strong, comparatively natural blueberry flavour.

POP Blueberry Mint 100 mg: intense, sweet and extra cool

Strength: 100 mg caffeine/pouch | Format: Slim | Pouches: 20/can | Price: €6.49/can, or around €0.32/pouch

POP Blueberry Mint combines sweet blueberry with a pronounced mint and cooling effect. A can contains 20 slim pouches with 100 mg of caffeine each. The pouches are vegan, sugar-free and free from tobacco and nicotine.

When you open the can, POP has the most intense smell of the three flavours tested. The blueberry is instantly clearly noticeable. At the same time, the aroma seems a bit sweeter and more artificial than WAKEY or W1NNAS.

The POP pouches are the same size as the pouches from WAKEY, but feel considerably moister. As a result, the flavour develops particularly quickly and intensely. If you prefer juicy pouches, you'll get the most pleasant texture in this comparison with POP .

Flavour-wise, POP Blueberry Mint is very sweet, strong and refreshing. Alongside the blueberry aroma there's a distinct cooling effect reminiscent of strong mint chewing gum. The freshness is especially noticeable when breathing in through your mouth.

In our test, the caffeine effect of POP was also perceived as particularly noticeable – even though, like WAKEY , it only contains 100 mg of caffeine. How strong a pouch feels can differ from person to person and doesn't just depend on the stated amount of caffeine.

Perfect for: Users who prefer intense, sweet flavours, moist pouches and a strong cooling effect.

Why this flavour stands out: POP has the strongest aroma, the highest moisture and the most distinct fresh kick in this comparison.

Packaging, format and quality

All three brands achieve a very good standard in packaging and workmanship. The cans look high-quality, close reliably and have a modern design.

The pouches themselves are also cleanly made and don't easily come apart with normal use. WAKEY and POP use almost identically sized slim pouches. W1NNAS is a little smaller and more compact.

The smaller W1NNASformat can be particularly discreet under the lip. If, on the other hand, you prefer a slightly larger and softer pouch, you'll probably get on better with WAKEY or POP .

There's no clear difference in quality. All three brands deliver sturdy, pleasantly shaped pouches.

Which pouch is the moistest?

When it comes to moisture, POP Blueberry Mint is clearly ahead. The pouches already feel noticeably softer and moister when you take them out. As a result, the flavour develops quickly and intensely.

WAKEY and W1NNAS are relatively close together. Neither is unpleasantly dry, but both take a little longer for the aroma to fully develop. WAKEY becomes soft and juicy a little faster during use.

With drier pouches, it can help to drink a sip of water before use or briefly moisten the pouch with your tongue. Putting water directly into the can and then storing the pouches for a long time is not recommended for hygiene reasons.

Smell and taste

WAKEY Frozen Berries

WAKEY offers the most balanced mix of berries and freshness. It smells pleasantly fruity and has a noticeable but not exaggerated mint note. The berry stays at the centre of the flavour.

W1NNAS Blueberry

W1NNAS tastes a bit more classically of blueberry and does without a strong cooling effect. The aroma seems comparatively natural and strong. With 150 mg of caffeine, however, the pouch can taste a little more bitter.

POP Blueberry Mint

POP is the sweetest and most intense flavour. The aroma develops particularly quickly thanks to the higher moisture. On top of that there's a distinct cooling effect that feels even stronger when breathing through your mouth.

In terms of flavour, WAKEY and W1NNAS are just ahead if you're looking for a more natural berry aroma. If you like it particularly intense, sweet and cool, you'll probably prefer POP .

Strength and perceived caffeine kick

On paper, the order is clear:

1. W1NNAS Blueberry: 150 mg caffeine
2. WAKEY Frozen Berries: 100 mg caffeine
3. POP Blueberry Mint: 100 mg caffeine

W1NNAS contains 50 percent more caffeine per pouch than its two competitors. What's interesting, however, is the total amount per can: WAKEY and POP each reach a total of 2,000 mg of caffeine with 20 pouches. W1NNAS contains a total of 1,950 mg because of the smaller number of pouches, despite its higher single strength.

In our subjective test, the effect of POP was perceived as particularly noticeable. This may be partly due to the higher moisture and the intense cooling effect. However, it can't be concluded that POP generally has a stronger effect than W1NNAS. Individual caffeine tolerance plays an important role here.

Value for money

When it comes to value for money, WAKEY Frozen Berries is ahead.

For €5.99 you get 20 pouches with 100 mg of caffeine each. That makes the price per pouch just under 30 cents.

POP Blueberry Mint costs €6.49 and also contains 20 pouches. At around 32 cents per pouch, POP is only just behind WAKEY and still offers very good value for money.

W1NNAS Blueberry is regularly much more expensive. At €12.99 for 13 pouches, a single pouch costs around one euro. Even the currently reduced price of €9.99 is still well above the prices of WAKEY and POP.

The higher caffeine strength of W1NNAS may justify the extra cost for users who specifically want 150 mg per pouch. Measured by the number of pouches and the total caffeine per can, however, WAKEY and POP offer much more for the money.

Conclusion: which blueberry energy pouch is best?

All three flavours impress with high-quality workmanship and a clearly recognisable berry flavour. The overall winner depends mainly on how important caffeine strength, cooling effect and price are to you.

WAKEY Frozen Berries is our overall winner. This flavour offers a pleasant berry mix, balanced freshness, 20 pouches and the best value for money. For €5.99 you get a high-quality energy pouch with a convincing flavour.

POP Blueberry Mint follows close behind. POP tastes the most intense, is the moistest and has the strongest cooling effect. If you prefer sweet, strong and very fresh pouches, you might even put POP in first place.

W1NNAS Blueberry wins on caffeine strength. With 150 mg, this flavour is clearly the strongest. The natural blueberry flavour also impresses. However, the high price and the small number of only 13 pouches prevent a better overall ranking.

Our result

• Overall winner: WAKEY Frozen Berries
• Best value for money: WAKEY Frozen Berries
• Strongest pouch: W1NNAS Blueberry
• Most intense flavour: POP Blueberry Mint
• Strongest cooling effect: POP Blueberry Mint
• Most natural blueberry flavour: W1NNAS Blueberry
• Best balance of flavour and price: WAKEY Frozen Berries

Another blueberry alternative: ZAP Blueberry with L-theanine

If you'd like to try another blueberry flavour, ZAP Blueberry is an interesting alternative. ZAP contains 100 mg of caffeine and 75 mg of L-theanine per pouch, plus vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12. A can contains 18 slim pouches.

Flavour-wise, ZAP goes for a sweet, soft and full-bodied blueberry note without the pronounced mint character of WAKEY Frozen Berries or POP Blueberry Mint. This makes the flavour particularly suitable for users looking for a classic blueberry caffeine snus with a more extensive formula. At the time of writing, ZAP Blueberry energy pouches also cost just €7.99 instead of the regular €9.99. 

Note: All the products mentioned contain a lot of caffeine. We recommend energy pouches from age 16. With highly dosed products, pay particular attention to the caffeine per pouch and your total caffeine intake. They are not recommended for children under 16, pregnant or breastfeeding women. Follow the recommendations and notes on the respective packaging.
