Pablo Ice Cold — Product Description
Pablo Ice Cold 16g delivers approximately 25mg of nicotine per pouch at 30mg/g via semi-moist format — 0.8g pouch, 20 portions per 16g can. This is the original Pablo Ice Cold formulation — the product that established Pablo’s position in the market before the Pablo Exclusive 50mg line was introduced.
Where Pablo Ice Cold 16g sits in the Pablo range:
Pablo Ice Cold at 30mg/g (~25mg per pouch) sits between Pablo Red (30mg/g, ~18-20mg per pouch — smaller pouch format) and Pablo Exclusive 50mg Ice Cold (50mg/g, ~32mg per pouch). The 0.8g pouch at 30mg/g produces approximately 25mg per pouch — more than Pablo Red’s slimmer pouch at the same concentration, less than Pablo Exclusive’s higher concentration.
The flavour system is peppermint menthol TRPM8 — the same pure cold-receptor activation as KILLA Cold Mint and Pablo Exclusive Ice Cold, at an intermediate concentration. Sharp, clean, immediate peppermint cold from session start. No spearmint warmth, no secondary flavour notes — pure menthol TRPM8.

Per Johansson — on Pablo Ice Cold 16g
Pablo Ice 16g is the original Pablo peppermint product — the formulation that preceded the Exclusive 50mg line and established NGP Empire’s position in the extreme nicotine pouch market. At 30mg/g with a 0.8g pouch producing approximately 25mg per pouch, it sits at an interesting point in the Pablo range: above Pablo Red’s slimmer pouch at the same concentration, below Pablo Exclusive’s 50mg/g ceiling.
Jonesy Jones from Sunderland rated it 5/5: “This one makes me relax. Instant relaxation.” That is the accurate description from a user with established tolerance at this concentration — fast onset, strong effect, pure peppermint cold.
My tolerance guidance: confirmed KILLA daily users are the correct audience. Pablo Ice Cold 16g at ~25mg per pouch is a meaningful step above KILLA Cold Mint’s 12.8mg. Not a first Pablo product — but also not requiring Pablo Gold Edition prior tolerance. Confirmed KILLA tolerance for at least several weeks is the appropriate entry point.

Pablo Ice Cold 16g — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Pablo Ice Cold and Pablo Exclusive 50mg Ice Cold?
Same peppermint menthol TRPM8 flavour system, same NGP Empire manufacturer, same semi-moist format. Different concentration: Pablo Ice Cold 16g at 30mg/g (~25mg per pouch), Pablo Exclusive at 50mg/g (~32mg per pouch). Pablo Ice Cold 16g is the intermediate product between Pablo Red and Pablo Exclusive 50mg.
What is the difference between Pablo Ice Cold and Pablo Red?
Same 30mg/g concentration. Different pouch size: Pablo Ice Cold uses a 0.8g pouch producing ~25mg per pouch. Pablo Red uses a slimmer pouch producing ~18-20mg per pouch. Pablo Ice Cold 16g delivers more nicotine per pouch at the same concentration due to the larger pouch mass. Pablo Red also uses a spearmint-based dual-receptor system; Pablo Ice Cold is pure peppermint menthol TRPM8.
Who should order Pablo Ice Cold 16g?
Confirmed KILLA daily users who want pure peppermint menthol at above-KILLA concentration without going to Pablo Exclusive’s 50mg/g ceiling. An intermediate step for users who find KILLA Cold Mint consistently insufficient but are not yet confirmed at Pablo Gold Edition tolerance.
How strong is Pablo Ice Cold 16g?
Approximately 25mg per pouch at 30mg/g — above KILLA Cold Mint (~12.8mg/16mg/g) and below Pablo Exclusive 50mg Ice Cold (~32mg/50mg/g). Confirmed KILLA daily tolerance required. Adults 21+ only.
Is Pablo Ice Cold 16g the same as Pablo Exclusive Ice Cold?
Same peppermint menthol flavour character — pure cold, no secondary notes, TRPM8 from session start. Different concentration: 30mg/g vs 50mg/g, ~25mg vs ~32mg per pouch. Pablo Ice Cold 16g is the original formulation; Pablo Exclusive 50mg Ice Cold is the higher-concentration successor.
Can I use Pablo Ice Cold 16g on a flight?
Yes. Nicotine pouches produce no smoke, vapour or smell and are permitted on commercial aircraft worldwide. Verify destination country import rules before travelling — particularly Australia (prescription generally required), France (banned April 2026), and Singapore.

Pablo Silver Edition — The 2026 Entry Point
Pablo Silver Edition is the lowest-concentration Pablo line, launched in early 2026 — and the first Pablo product that overlaps with the ZYN S4/S5 tolerance range. At approximately 10mg per pouch, Silver Edition represents NGP Empire's first deliberate step into mainstream-adjacent strength under the Pablo brand name. Silver Edition is available exclusively in mint profiles — Cold Mint, Peppermint and Spearmint — without fruit or confectionery variants. The semi-moist format is identical to Gold Edition and Exclusive in construction, but at 10mg per pouch the onset curve is significantly more gradual than the higher lines. Silver Edition is the correct entry point for established ZYN S5 users who want to experience the Pablo brand format and flavour character before committing to Gold Edition's more demanding concentration. The practical implication of Silver Edition: Pablo now has a genuine three-step progression within its own range. ZYN S5 users can enter via Silver (~10mg), confirm tolerance and flavour preference, step to Gold (~20–22mg) after 4–6 weeks of confirmed Silver use, and approach Exclusive 50mg (~32mg) only after confirmed Gold tolerance. This is the progression Per Johansson recommends without exception.Pablo Exclusive 50mg — The Complete Range
Pablo Exclusive is the original Pablo line and the higher-concentration product at 50mg/g (~32mg per pouch). It established Pablo's position in the market and remains the defining product of the extreme nicotine pouch category globally. Pablo Exclusive is available across 15+ flavours covering mint, fruit, confectionery and beverage profiles — the broadest flavour range at the extreme nicotine tier from any manufacturer. Flavours include: Ice Cold (peppermint menthol), Watermelon, Watermelon Lemon, Bubblegum, Cola, Cherry Cola, Blue Raspberry, Blue Mint, Lemonade, Pink Lemonade, Strawberry Kiwi, Orange, Sour Blueberries, Blueberry Cranberry Cherry, Blueberry Peach Ice.Pablo Gold Edition — The Bridge Product
Pablo Gold Edition at 30–35mg/g (~20–22mg per pouch) occupies the position between confirmed KILLA or White Fox Black users and the full Pablo Exclusive 50mg experience. Per Johansson describes it as "the rational bridging product for users who know they are ready for Pablo but are not certain they are ready for 32mg per pouch." Gold Edition is available in Frosted Mint, Frosted Ice, Tropical Punch, Passion Fruit, Blue Raspberry, Gold White Mint and Gold Dark Cherry.The Nicotine Science Behind Pablo's Extreme Concentration
Pablo operates on the same pharmacokinetic principles as KILLA — alkaline pH freebase nicotine formulation, semi-moist rapid release format, pharmaceutical-grade tobacco-derived nicotine — but at concentrations that produce fundamentally different physiological effects from anything in the mainstream market. Why 32mg per pouch is categorically different from 16mg: Nicotine's physiological effects are not linear at higher concentrations. At 6–16mg per pouch (ZYN S2 through White Fox Full Charge), the primary effect is mood regulation, concentration enhancement and craving satisfaction. At 32mg per pouch delivered via semi-moist rapid release, the nicotine plasma curve reaches levels that produce pronounced cardiovascular effects — elevated heart rate and blood pressure that users with established tolerance experience as part of the product's character, and users without that tolerance experience as an adverse event requiring sitting down and waiting for it to pass. TRPM8 activation at extreme menthol concentration: Pablo Ice Cold's menthol concentration at 50mg/g produces TRPM8 cold receptor activation significantly more pronounced than any mainstream product. The McKemy et al. (2002) research in Nature that describes menthol's TRPM8 mechanism documents that cold perception intensity scales with menthol concentration. At Pablo Ice Cold's concentration, the cold onset in the first minutes of a session is qualitatively different — more immediate, more intense, more sustained — from what KILLA Cold Mint produces at 16mg/g.Pablo vs KILLA vs White Fox Black — Complete Tier Comparison

Manufacturing and Origin
Pablo is manufactured by NGP Empire — the same independent European manufacturer that produces KILLA. NGP Empire operates from Scandinavia and is independent from Swedish Match/PMI (ZYN), British American Tobacco (VELO) and GN Tobacco (White Fox/Siberia). All Pablo products use pharmaceutical-grade nicotine derived from the tobacco plant — no tobacco leaf at any stage of production. The alkaline pH formulation maximises freebase nicotine availability at the mucosal surface, identical in principle to KILLA's formulation but at concentrations that produce correspondingly more pronounced absorption kinetics. NGP Empire launched KILLA and Pablo simultaneously around 2016 as two brands targeting different tolerance tiers within the same high-concentration specialist market. Pablo Silver Edition, launched in early 2026, represents the brand's first expansion into the mainstream-adjacent tolerance range under the Pablo name.Pablo and New Zealand — Legal Status
Pablo nicotine pouches are legal for personal import into New Zealand under the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Act 1990 (amended 2020 and 2023). Pablo uses tobacco-derived nicotine — the specific legal basis for personal import in New Zealand that distinguishes it from synthetic nicotine products. Pablo is not available in NZ retail as of August 2026. DHL Express from Sweden delivers in 4–7 working days. No customs duty under NZD 1,000. GST 15% applies. Personal use only. Not for resale.Am I Ready for Pablo?

| KILLA X Cold Mint (12.8mg) | 12.8mg | Yes — Pablo Gold Edition first. Not Exclusive 50mg |
| White Fox Black (~17mg) | ~17mg | Yes — Pablo Gold Edition. Exclusive 50mg after 4–6 weeks confirmed Gold tolerance |
| Pablo Gold Edition (~20–22mg) | ~20–22mg | Yes — Pablo Exclusive 50mg after confirmed daily Gold tolerance |
Frequently Asked Questions — Pablo Nicotine Pouches
Who makes Pablo nicotine pouches? NGP Empire — the same independent Scandinavian manufacturer that produces KILLA nicotine pouches. NGP Empire is independent from Swedish Match/PMI (ZYN), BAT (VELO) and GN Tobacco (White Fox/Siberia). Pablo and KILLA share the same pharmaceutical-grade nicotine, alkaline pH freebase formulation and tobacco-free all-white construction — what differs is the concentration. What are the three Pablo lines? Pablo Silver Edition (~10mg per pouch, launched early 2026, mint profiles only) for ZYN S4/S5 users entering the Pablo brand. Pablo Gold Edition (~20–22mg per pouch) for confirmed KILLA X Cold Mint or White Fox Black users. Pablo Exclusive 50mg (~32mg per pouch) for confirmed Pablo Gold Edition users only. Never skip lines — the gap between each tier is significant. How strong is Pablo Exclusive 50mg? Pablo Exclusive at 50mg/g delivers approximately 32mg of nicotine per pouch in a semi-moist rapid release format. This is approximately 2× ZYN S6 (16.5mg) and 2.5× KILLA Cold Mint Slim (12.8mg). For users without the specific tolerance profile it requires, a single session produces severe nicotine overconsumption symptoms. Confirmed Pablo Gold Edition tolerance is required before approaching Exclusive 50mg. What is Pablo Silver Edition? Pablo Silver Edition is the lowest-concentration Pablo line, launched in early 2026 at approximately 10mg per pouch in Cold Mint, Peppermint and Spearmint formats. It is the first Pablo product that overlaps with the ZYN S4/S5 tolerance range — designed for established mainstream users who want to experience the Pablo brand format without the extreme concentrations of Gold Edition or Exclusive 50mg. Silver Edition is the correct first Pablo product for ZYN S5 users. What is the difference between Pablo Gold Edition and Pablo Exclusive 50mg? Pablo Gold Edition is at 30–35mg/g (~20–22mg per pouch) — Per Johansson's recommended first Pablo product for confirmed KILLA X Cold Mint or White Fox Black users. Pablo Exclusive 50mg is at 50mg/g (~32mg per pouch) — requires confirmed Pablo Gold Edition daily tolerance. Gold Edition is the bridge; Exclusive is the destination after that bridge is crossed. Is Pablo tobacco-free? Yes. All Pablo lines contain no tobacco leaf at any stage of production. Pharmaceutical-grade nicotine derived from the tobacco plant, plant-based cellulose pouch material, food-grade flavourings and pH regulators. Manufactured by NGP Empire in Scandinavia. What is the Pablo Ice Cold Limited Edition? Same formulation as Pablo Exclusive 50mg Ice Cold — peppermint menthol at 50mg/g, approximately 32mg per pouch. The Limited Edition designation indicates a collector's can design run rather than a different product formulation. Produced in limited quantities; flavour and strength are identical to the standard Exclusive Ice Cold. Is Pablo legal to import into New Zealand? Yes. Pablo nicotine pouches are legal for personal import into New Zealand under the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Act 1990 (amended 2020 and 2023). Pablo uses tobacco-derived nicotine — the specific legal basis for personal import. Not available in NZ retail as of August 2026. DHL Express from Sweden delivers in 4–7 working days. No customs duty under NZD 1,000. GST 15% applies. Personal use only.Related Brand Guides
