Chilled Pouch Material for Nicotine Pouch

Abstract

Nicotine containing article for smokeless and oral usage comprising a wrapping material and a nicotine containing product, the nicotine containing product being arranged inside the wrapping material, wherein the wrapping material encloses the nicotine containing product from all sides and thereby forms the nicotine containing article in the shape of a pouch, and wherein the wrapping material is fluid permeable and thereby allows a fluid, preferably with nicotine absorbed from the nicotine containing product, to pass through it. According to the invention at least a part of the wrapping material also comprises cooling agent which causes a cooling effect when using the nicotine containing article, wherein the cooling agent is neutral in taste and/or odour.
