A can of Zyn Cool Mint 3mg

The lightest rung of Zyn's longest ladder

Cool Mint is the flavour Zyn runs further up its ladder than any other, and Zyn Cool Mint 3mg is where that ladder starts. It is a Mini, the small white pouch with the dry finish, and at 3mg it sits on the bottom tier of the brand's range. Here's the thing. It is the same peppermint and menthol you get in the big cans, only with the volume turned right down, so you get the clean cool taste without a lot of nicotine behind it. The pouch contains no tobacco leaf and nothing else gets in the way of the mint. Simple, clean, and very easy to like.

Peppermint and menthol, kept soft

Pop one in and you get fresh peppermint straight away, cool and clean, the taste of the mint you get with the bill at a decent restaurant. The menthol sits behind it and adds a gentle chill rather than a blast, so the cooling is there but it never stings. The flavour holds steady through the load and the dry Mini pouch keeps the drip low, which keeps everything tidy. It finishes clean and leaves the mouth feeling fresh. Fair play to it, a mint this gentle is a harder thing to get right than it sounds.

3mg a pouch and the whole Cool Mint climb

Each pouch carries 3mg of nicotine, which is our light band, 1mg to 8mg. Zyn stacks its cans in three tiers: 1.5mg to 3.5mg at the bottom, 6mg to 13.5mg in the middle and 16.5mg at the top, and Cool Mint 3mg sits on the first tier. Above it the same mint runs at 6mg, 9mg, 11mg, 13.5mg in the XX-Strong can and all the way to 16.5mg in Cool Mint Max, which is the longest run of any flavour on the Zyn shelf. The uptake is soft and the curve stays low. Light snus, with a lot of road ahead of it.

For the mint regular who wants a quiet one

This is the can for anyone new to snus who wants the classic mint taste at the gentlest level, and for regulars who keep a soft can for the last train home. It suits people who like a flavour with one job. If you want the same mint with more behind it, Zyn Cool Mint 6mg is the next rung, and Zyn Cool Mint 9mg takes it into the slim pouch and the medium band. For a rounder, greener mint at the same 3mg, Zyn Spearmint 3mg is the one beside it. Give it a go.
