Snowman's colder mint at its gentler number
Ask for the mint with the most frost on it at the Snowman end of the shelf and you get pointed at Arctic Kick. Snowman is a Tridots brand, and by the brand's own account its pouches are manufactured in Denmark, which fits a can with a snowman on the lid and a name like this one. There are two lines on the shelf, the 9mg Line and the 12mg Line, each carrying the same six flavours, and this is Arctic Kick at 9mg, the lower of the two. Blue lid, white lettering, no messing about.
Icy mint that stays sharp to the last pouch
It opens cold. Not sweet mint, not creamy mint, a sharp cool mint that lands on the gum like the first breath of air on a frosty platform while you wait for the early train. It stays crisp through the load rather than warming up, and the finish is clean, with no sugar hanging about afterwards. The catalogue calls the 9mg version a slightly softer cooling profile, and that is fair. Same frost as the 12mg can, delivered with a lighter hand. Proper cold, properly tidy.
9mg a pouch, three dots, and the 12mg frost above it
Each pouch carries 9mg of nicotine, which lands in our medium band, the one that runs from 8mg to 16mg. Snowman keeps things simple with two lines, and this is the lower one. The lid shows three of five dots filled. One step up sits Arctic Kick 12mg, the same mint in the 12mg Line, and that is where Snowman's ladder stops. The pouches are slim and white, tobacco free, 20 to a can. Medium snus with a cold edge and a steady curve, nothing jumpy about it.

Who reaches for Arctic Kick at 9mg
This is the Snowman for anyone who wants the colder of the brand's two mints without the top number. If you are new to snus and like a sharp mint, 9mg is a sensible place to begin, and if the cold suits you but you want more behind it, Arctic Kick 12mg is the same flavour one rung up. Prefer your mint plain rather than icy? Snowman Fresh Mint 12mg is the other mint in the range. And if you fancy fruit with the same light hand, Watermelon Breeze 9mg sits right next to it. Give it a go.
