W1NNAS energy pouches – caffeine snus for athletes
W1NNAS – often searched for as Winnas – is a sports brand from Cologne with a clear idea: pouches for people who want to perform, but without nicotine. W1NNAS was founded in 2022 by Pablo Klüppelberg and Ben Decker, who knew each other from courses at the German Sport University Cologne. Through internships in professional football, Pablo saw how common snus and nicotine pouches are in many dressing rooms. That sparked the plan to develop an alternative that fits sport.
Performance pouches, not a lifestyle product
W1NNAS deliberately calls its pouches performance pouches. According to the manufacturer, they were developed together with sports physicians, tested for doping and are used by professional athletes. Each pouch contains 150 mg of caffeine, plus taurine and vitamin B12. They're sweetened with xylitol instead of sugar. One can holds 13 pouches.
The W1NNAS flavours
All flavours have the same strength of 150 mg caffeine per pouch – so you only choose by taste:
How strong is 150 mg of caffeine?
150 mg is more than a double espresso and almost twice as much as a can of energy drink (250 ml, 80 mg). W1NNAS is therefore intended for adults experienced with caffeine. According to EFSA, up to 200 mg of caffeine at once and up to 400 mg per day are considered safe for healthy adults. If you're looking for a gentler strength, you'll find flavours from 50 mg at WAKEY.
Performance pouches for training, competition & focus
W1NNAS delivers 150 mg of caffeine per pouch, making it one of the strongest energy pouches in our range. Developed in Cologne for athletes, with no nicotine and no tobacco: ideal when you want to be fully switched on before training, on match day or during long study sessions.
