A can of Zyn Blackcurrant Ice 11mg

Blackcurrant Ice 11mg, sharp berry with a fresh mint lift

Zyn Blackcurrant Ice 11mg is the can for the regular who wants a dark fruit that stays lively. It comes in Zyn's slim pouch, the longer one that is moist to the touch, and 11mg puts it on the brand's middle tier and in our medium band. Here's the thing. The Ice in the name is not a cold front. It is a light fresh mint lift sitting behind the berry, there to keep the blackcurrant crisp rather than to take over. Sharp fruit first, a clean lift second, and 11mg underneath the pair of them. Zyn pouches contain no tobacco leaf. Bright and dark at the same time, no messing about.

Blackcurrant first, a clean mint lift behind it

The first pouch opens on blackcurrant, sharp and sweet, closer to the berry straight off the bush than the cordial in the cupboard. The fresh mint lift arrives a beat later and sits under the fruit, keeping it crisp and clean through the load without ever turning it into a mint can. The slim pouch is moist, so the drip is generous and the berry carries all the way to the end. It stays vibrant from first pouch to last and finishes clean, like a blackcurrant sorbet on a warm evening. Lively fruit, fair play to it.

11mg a pouch, and the berry's bigger sibling

Each pouch carries 11mg of nicotine, which sits in our medium band, the one that runs from 8mg to 16mg. On Zyn's shelf that is the middle tier, the 6mg to 13.5mg cans, above the 1.5mg to 3.5mg tier and below the 16.5mg cans at the top. The shelf also has Zyn Blackcurrant Frost at 13.5mg, a darker and colder take on the berry, so there is a rung above this one for anyone who wants it. Uptake is quick and the curve climbs early. The pouch is the slim, long and moist to the touch. Medium snus with a sharp berry on top.

For the fruit regular who likes it crisp

This is the can for the medium strength regular who wants fruit with a bit of edge to it, and for anyone on a mint at this number who fancies a berry without losing the freshness. It suits the all day user who wants one flavour that stays lively from the first can to the last. If 11mg is the right amount, stay here. Want the same dark fruit without the lift? Zyn Black Cherry 11mg is the rounder berry at the same number. Want it colder and stronger? Zyn Blackcurrant Frost 13.5mg is the next one up. Give it a go.
