Cool Mint Slim Strong, the 11mg mint with the pouch in its name
Zyn Cool Mint Slim Strong 11mg does what it says on the lid. It is Zyn's peppermint in the slim pouch, the long one, at 11mg, and Strong is the maker's own word for this rung of that range. The shelf carries a second Cool Mint at 11mg, and the two share a number and a mint while coming from different ranges of the brand. The pouch contains no tobacco leaf, so the peppermint and the cooling have the place to themselves. Here's the thing. People who buy this one tend to buy it for the name alone: slim, strong, mint, sorted.
Sharper cooling, a firmer finish, the same clean peppermint
Pop one in and the peppermint is smooth and balanced for a second, then the cooling turns up a notch and stays there. It is the difference between a mint from the glovebox and one straight from the freezer compartment. The cold sits firmly on the gum through the load and the finish is more assertive than the 6mg and 9mg mints, with a crisp edge that lingers after the pouch comes out. Bold, confident, and still clean. Fair play to it.
11mg a pouch, Strong on the lid, medium on our scale
Each pouch carries 11mg of nicotine, which lands in our medium band, 8mg to 16mg, a touch above the halfway mark. On Zyn's own shelf that is the middle tier, 6mg to 13.5mg, between the 1.5mg to 3.5mg Minis and the 16.5mg cans at the top. Within the Cool Mint family it sits above Cool Mint 9mg and alongside Cool Mint 11mg, with the XX-Strong can at 13.5mg and Cool Mint Max at 16.5mg still to come. Uptake is quick in the slim pouch and the curve climbs with purpose. Medium snus with a strong label, and it earns the label.

Who asks for the slim strong mint, and the cans either side
This is the can for the mint regular who has settled at 11mg and wants a firmer cooling than the standard Cool Mint, and for anyone on Cool Mint 9mg who feels ready for more. It suits the all day user who likes the slim pouch and a mint that makes its point. Want the next rung? Zyn Cool Mint XX-Strong 13.5mg is the step above, and Zyn Cool Mint Max 16.5mg tops the whole ladder. After the same number with menthol and eucalyptus instead? Zyn Menthol Ice 11mg is next to it. Give it a go.
