DALLAS —Rush non-tobacco oral nicotine pouches are available as of January through Crown Distributing, Global Tobacco and America Juice Co.

The Rush pouches come in wintergreen, mint, citrus and cinnamon flavors and in 3-milligram or 7-milligram options.

"We expect the Rush nicotine pouches to have very high acceptance among adult consumers looking for real alternatives to cigarettes, other tobacco products and vape products,” Mike Walters, vice president of sales at Crown, said. “Our initial consumer feedback tells us the Rush tobacco-free white nicotine pouches rate high on soft mouth feel, flavor impact and overall nicotine satisfaction when compared to other brands currently on the market."

The nicotine in the pouch is from a non-tobacco source and none of the flavors have tobacco extracts, the company said.

Rush products are manufactured under license through Alternative Nicotine Technologies LLC, an innovator in the Modern Oral Nicotine (MON) category and are primarily distributed through Crown Distributing, Dallas.
