Violet Licorice 6mg, the sweet shop jar of the Zyn range
Every newsagent used to have a jar of something black and floral at the back, and Zyn Violet Licorice 6mg is that jar turned into snus. It is the lighter of the two Violet Licorice cans, a flavour built from liquorice, salmiak and violet, and it comes in the slim pouch, the longer format the maker now calls Regular. No tobacco leaf in the pouch. Here's the thing. Nothing else on the Zyn shelf tastes like it, which is exactly why the people who love it keep a can in every pocket.
Liquorice first, a pinch of salt, a violet finish
Pop one in and the liquorice lands first, deep and smooth, like the black ones from a bag of Allsorts. Then the salmiak brings a salty edge that sits neatly against the sweetness, the sweet and salty pull that keeps people reaching for one more. The violet arrives last, a soft floral note that rounds everything off, like the little purple sweets from the corner shop. The slim pouch holds the balance steady through the load, and the finish stays floral and smooth. Proper old school, done with care.
6mg a pouch, with the 9mg sitting above
Each pouch carries 6mg of nicotine, near the top of our light band, which covers 1mg to 8mg. On Zyn's shelf it opens the 6mg to 13.5mg middle tier, with the 1.5mg to 3.5mg Minis below and the 16.5mg cans on top. Violet Licorice has two rungs: this 6mg and Violet Licorice 9mg above it, same flavour, same slim pouch, a bigger number. The slim pouch gets the flavour moving quickly and the curve stays easy. Light snus with a lot of character.

For the liquorice lover who likes it light
This is the can for anyone who grew up on liquorice and wants it in snus form, and for the light snus regular looking for a flavour well away from mint and fruit. It suits people who enjoy a sweet and salty taste with a floral finish. When you want the same blend with more behind it, Zyn Violet Licorice 9mg is the next rung. Fancy something different at a similar number? Zyn Gentle Mint 6mg is soft and easy, and Zyn Lemon Spritz 6.5mg brings bright lemon. Give it a go.
