Oliver Twist tobacco bits contain approximately 5,5 mg of nicotine. The actual amount of nicotine released depends on how you use the bit, including how much you chew it and how long you keep it under your upper lip. On average, about 2 mg of nicotine is released during one hour of use, such as with the Oliver Twist Tropical variant. This means not all nicotine in a tobacco bit is absorbed, and some will remain in the bit after use.

When you smoke a cigarette, you absorb the nicotine through your lungs. When you use a tobacco bit, the nicotine is absorbed through the mucous membranes of the oral cavity. The main difference between a cigarette and a tobacco bit is that smoke develops tar and carbon monoxide, which is proven harmful to health. Tobacco bits are not lit and therefore do not develop these substances.
This is how to use Oliver Twist tobacco bits:
Yes, Oliver Twist tobacco bits contain nicotine. Oliver Twist tobacco bits are made from tobacco leaves. We do not manipulate the nicotine quantity. The quantity found in the natural tobacco leaf is the quantity you find in an Oliver Twist tobacco bit.
Oliver Twist tobacco bits are spitless.
You will not need to spit while using Oliver Twist tobacco bits. An Oliver Twist tobacco bit is about 1 cm long and 0.5 cm thick. It will not cause much saliva.
Do not swallow the tobacco bits as they are made from tobacco leaves. Throw them into the garbage bin after use just as you would with chewing gum. Should you swallow a bit by accident and subsequently feel discomfort, you should seek medical attention.
It’s not uncommon to experience a burning or scratchy sensation in your throat when using Oliver Twist tobacco bits for the first time. This can happen because the nicotine and flavor are released as the tobacco bit interacts with the mucous membranes in your mouth. If the sensation is uncomfortable, it may be due to chewing the tobacco bit too much. The more you chew, the faster nicotine and flavor are released, which can intensify the sensation. To avoid this, place the tobacco bit under your upper lip and let it rest without chewing.

No, Oliver Twist tobacco bits don’t contain tar. Tar develops from the burning of tobacco. Oliver Twist is a smoke-free product.
The ”best before” date is stamped onto all boxes. This makes it easier for you and the retailer to see if the product is fresh. The vacuum packages with tobacco bits must feel soft and yield when you squeeze them.
If you are used to using Sweden snus or chewing bags, it will take some getting used to Oliver Twist tobacco bits. Our tobacco bits are smaller and the nicotine is released more slowly than from snus and chewing bags. The reason is that our products consist of a whole tobacco leaf, not tobacco granulate/powder.
Yes. An Oliver Twist tobacco bit contains 0.04 gram of sugar on average. By comparison, an ordinary sugar cube contains 2.5 grams of sugar. This means that one cube of sugar contains the same amount of sugar as 60 Oliver Twist tobacco bits.
Oliver Twist chewing tobacco bits are hand-made. They are spun manually from whole tobacco leaves. Tobacco leaves are natural products of varying sizes and thicknesses. We endeavour to make the products uniform, but it still cannot be helped that the sizes of the tobacco bits vary. However, a box will always contain 7 g net.
