A can of XQS Citrus Cooling 10mg

XQS Citrus Cooling, the lemon can with the chill

Here's the thing about XQS Citrus Cooling: it is the one XQS can that tastes like it was built for a hot afternoon. XQS comes out of Sweden and is part of Scandinavian Tobacco Group. The maker dates the brand to 2005 in Jämtland. The range is a single run of cans, each one a flavour and a strength, no editions to decode. This is the citrus can, lemon by the maker's own description, with a cooling touch on top, at 10mg a pouch.

Cloudy lemonade with an icy note behind it

Lemon leads, bright and lively, the way a glass of proper cloudy lemonade does on the first sip. It is zesty rather than sour, sweet enough to stay friendly, and almost straight away a light icy note slides in behind it. That cool note is not a mint flavour so much as a freshness, and it keeps the lemon crisp through the whole load. The drip stays clean and the citrus does not go flat towards the end. By the last pouch it is the same bright thing it was at the first. No messing about.

10mg of nicotine under the lemon

Each pouch carries 10mg of nicotine, which places it in our medium band, running 8mg to 16mg. On the XQS shelf it sits level with The Peppermint, Blueberry Mint and Raspberry Blackcurrant, all 10mg, one rung above the 8mg fruit cans such as Black Cherry and Berrynana Twist, and one below The Menthol at 11mg. Slim pouches, 20 to a can. The uptake is steady and the curve sits in the middle, which is where most medium snus users want it.

Who picks Citrus Cooling off the shelf

Citrus Cooling is for the person who finds berry flavours a little heavy and wants something sharper and fresher instead. It suits anyone who already likes the lemon sweets from the pick and mix, and anyone on a mint snus who fancies a fruit can that still feels cool. If you want the fresh side without the citrus, The Peppermint is the same 10mg next door, and Blueberry Mint keeps the cool note with a softer fruit. Give it a go.
