A can of ZIXS Cool Peppermint 12mg

Zixs Cool Peppermint, the plain spoken mint on the 12mg line

Walk into any newsagent and ask for a mint and the first thing they hand you is a peppermint. Zixs Cool Peppermint is that mint in snus form. It sits in the brand's 12mg Standard Line, the line where Zixs keeps almost everything it makes, and it does the plain thing well: peppermint, cooled, nothing else on the label. Zixs comes from Gothenburg in Sweden, where Microzero AB, a family business, runs its own factory and makes all white, tobacco free pouches. The name on this can tells you the whole story. Here's the thing. Sometimes that is exactly what you want.

Peppermint with the cool turned up

Picture the peppermint in a packet of extra strong mints from the garage forecourt, then make it cooler and cleaner. That is the opening note: a bright, sharp peppermint with a chill riding on top of it. Spearmint is the sweeter mint and peppermint is the sharper one, and this can is firmly on the sharp side. The cool stays put through the load, and the peppermint underneath stays crisp rather than drifting into something softer. It finishes the way it started, clean and fresh. Proper mint, no decoration.

12mg a pouch, where the whole Zixs Standard Line sits

Every pouch carries 12mg of nicotine. On our scale that is medium, the band that runs from 8mg to 16mg, and it is the number Zixs uses for its entire Standard Line, so Cool Peppermint sits level with Spearmint, Exotic Chili and North Ice -66 rather than above or below them. The one Zixs can at a different number is the Black Cherry Mega Can at 8mg, on its own rung beneath. The table below carries the figures that stand for this can. Medium snus, in the most familiar mint there is.

The peppermint people, and where they go next

This is the can for anyone who picks peppermint over every other mint without a second thought: the person who wants the sharp one, not the sweet one. If you are new to Zixs and want to start on the brand's main 12mg line with a flavour you already understand, this is the easiest door in. Prefer your mint softer and sweeter? Zixs Spearmint is next to it at the same 12mg. Want the mint colder still? Zixs North Ice -66 is the icy one on the same line. Give it a go.
