Will Kazakh “mushroom snus” appear on Russian marketplaces by June?

Volume~$197
Health
Business
YES chance
DescriptionA new product from Kazakhstan—nicotine-free chewing gum with sea buckthorn and cordyceps—has already caused a stir on social media. Since the product contains no nicotine or tobacco, it is not subject to the strict restrictions of anti-tobacco legislation and can be freely sold as a dietary supplement or chewing mixture. Given the close trade ties within the EAEU and the popularity of microdosing mushrooms in the CIS, sellers on Wildberries and Ozon will most likely add the product to their lineup by early summer.
ConditionsYes: If, by May 31, 2026 (inclusive), a variety of chewing gum and pouches manufactured in Kazakhstan—whose ingredients are listed as mushrooms (hedgehog mushrooms/cordyceps)—becomes available for sale on major Russian marketplaces (Wildberries, Ozon, Yandex Market) begin selling chewing blends or pouches manufactured in Kazakhstan that are labeled as containing mushrooms (hericium/cordyceps) and are nicotine-free.No: if, by the specified date, the product is not available for order on these platforms under the corresponding description.
