Green apple, the Apres way, at 8.3mg
Ask the counter for the crispest can on the Apres shelf and Appletini is the one that comes back. It is the green apple from the Stockholm brand, the one that sells its pouches in a white can with a coloured ring, and at 8.3mg it sits at the lower of the two numbers in the tier we call The Aperitivo Strength. Apres has been making tobacco free nicotine pouches since 2021 and tends to give its cans names you would read off a chalkboard. The pouch itself is just apple. Here's the thing. There is no mint in here to prop the apple up. It does not need any.
Crisp apple, lightly sweet, clean right through
It is the green apple from the fruit bowl, the sharp one you bite into on the walk to the station, crisp and lightly sweet with the skin still on. The flavour opens fresh and tart, settles into a light sweetness, and holds that shape for the whole pouch. There is no caramel, no fizz, no second fruit, so the apple stays clear from the first pouch to the last, with the finish stepping away clean. In snus terms it is one of the tidier fruit flavours going: fresh at the front, fresh at the back. Proper apple, no messing about.
8.3mg a pouch, the first step into the medium band
Each pouch carries 8.3mg of nicotine, which is the bottom of our medium band, the one that runs from 8mg to 16mg. On the Apres shelf the brand sells four numbers: 4.4mg and 5.5mg in the mild tier, then 8.3mg here and 11mg above it. So Appletini sits a step above Limoncello Dicapri 5.5mg and a step below the Hypèr Strong cans such as Hugo Spritz 11mg. The uptake is quicker than the mild cans and the curve has more lift, without tipping into the strong band. A medium snus with a crisp flavour out front.

Apple people, and the step up from here
This is a can for someone who likes fruit sharp rather than sweet and wants a number with a bit of lift in it. If you have been on the mild Apres cans and fancy more, 8.3mg is the natural next rung. It also suits a regular from another brand's medium cans who wants a change of flavour without changing the number. When 8.3mg starts to feel settled, Apres Hugo Spritz 11mg is the bright one above it, and Apres Cactus Lime 8.3mg is the other sharp citrus at the same step. Give it a go.
