Did Somebody Say ‘Rogue Shortage?’ All You Need to Know 

It’s no secret that demand for nicotine pouches is at an all-time high in the US. Emerging from a nationwide ZYN shortage, we’re now seeing other brands start to feel the flow-on effects of their rapidly growing customer bases.


Rogue sales are 2-3 times higher than they were this time last year, for instance. They’re the latest brand to warn that we should prepare for some of their nicotine pouches to be out of stock over the next couple of months. 


The good news is, we’re in close dialogue with the manufacturer and only a handful of Rogue nicotine pouches will be impacted.  

Here's What You Can Expect

The production of Rogue’s most popular nicotine pouches (mainly 6mg) will be ramped up to meet increasing demand.


If you regularly order any of these, you shouldn’t notice a difference:

 

    • Rogue Peppermint 6mg
    • Rogue Wintergreen 3mg & 6mg
    • Rogue Spearmint 6mg
    • Rogue Mango 6mg

Other Rogue products will have intermittent shipments until the end of the year, meaning they may or may not be in stock.


Keep an eye on them and don't completely abandon them from your shopping cart:

 

    • Rogue Citrus 3mg & 6mg
    • Rogue Apple 6mg

Expected to be Out of Stock Soon

Some Rogue products (mainly 3mg) will experience production delays and shortages until early 2025.


You can still order up to 30 cans every 30 days through Nicokick while stocks last: 

 

    • Rogue Peppermint 3mg
    • Rogue Berry 3mg & 6mg 
    • Rogue Spearmint 3mg 
    • Rogue Cinnamon 3mg & 6mg 
    • Rogue Apple 3mg 
    • Rogue Honey Lemon 3mg & 6mg 
    • Rogue Mango 3mg 

This list will be continuously updated based on our stock levels and any indicators we get from the supplier/manufacturer. 

What Options Do You Have?

The important thing to keep in mind here is that not all products are “going rogue,” with almost a third of the Rogue range still for sale. But if your favorite nicotine pouch does happen to be out of stock, this could be a chance to explore other flavors and strengths you haven’t before. 


We've put together a list of Rogue alternatives if you’re unsure what to buy in the absence of your usual can. No matter what you’re looking for, we’re confident Nicokick will have a pouch to match (or at least come pretty close). 

Alternatives for Rogue Peppermint 3mg

For those of you that love Rogue Peppermint 3mg and don't mind double the nicotine per pouch, you'll be pleased to hear that we have a steady supply of Rogue Peppermint 6mg.


If you really want to stick with Rogue and are chasing a minty pouch that's Less Intense, then their Wintergreen 3mg is the way to go. 


Or if peppermint is what you’re after and you’re open to trying a new brand, then we can vouch for VELO Peppermint’s 4mg pouch.
 

Rogue Alternatives for Rogue Berry 3mg & 6mg

You don’t have to look very far to find the next best Rogue Berry. 


If neither 3mg or 6mg strength is available, we recommend trying on! Berry, which offers the same burst of fruity freshness with slightly more/less nicotine than what you’ll be used to from Rogue – giving you the choice between 2mg, 4mg or 8mg.  

Alternatives for Rogue Spearmint 3mg

Rogue Spearmint 6mg delivers an exact flavor match in case you can’t find Rogue Spearmint 3mg and are ok with a slightly stronger pouch.


On the other hand, Rogue Wintergreen 3mg is a crowd favorite that matches in terms of strength and offers a similar minty sweetness.


Otherwise, VELO Spearmint 4mg could be a fitting substitute on both the flavor and strength front until Rogue is re-stocked. 

Alternatives for Rogue Cinnamon 3mg & 6mg

There are no Rogue alternatives when it comes to cinnamon, but luckily you do have an assortment of other brands to choose from – including on!, Lucy and VELO.


Most sit around the 4mg mark, but the on! offering includes Less Intense (2mg) and Strong (8mg) options as well. 

Alternatives for Rogue Apple 3mg

Unfortunately Rogue Apple 3mg is already out of stock, but you should keep your eye on Rogue Apple 6mg (so long as the strength doesn't bother you) since we've been told it'll be included in some 2024 shipments.


In the meantime, Lucy Apple Ice (4mg or 8mg) are fitting fill-ins with the taste of crisp apple cider complemented by a touch of cool mint. 

Alternatives for Rogue Honey Lemon 3mg & 6mg

Honey Lemon is an exclusive flavor to Rogue that you won’t find anywhere else. If you can’t track any more of these pouches down, you may wish to mix up your nicotine routine with Rogue's "normal" citrus (provided they’re in stock) or look into on!'s range.


A heads up too if VELO Citrus Burst has caught your eye – this flavor incorporates other citrus fruits with more emphasis on orange and may not be the perfect substitute if you’re looking for something specifically lemon-based.

Alternatives for Rogue Mango 3mg

If you’re more concerned with the flavor of Rogue Mango than its strength, then you can’t go past their 6mg variety when all 3mg pouches (inevitably) sell out.


Otherwise, Lucy's Regular (4mg) or Strong (8mg) mango pouches may appeal for those who want more nicotine with a tropical twist.
