ZYN Cool Mint Mini - Expert Review

In the world of nicotine pouches, ZYN was the product that really kicked it all off. Now, there are hundreds upon hundreds of varieties. But, when looking at where it all began, ZYN is the one that really made the category popular. In the US, for example, it is the most popular line out there. Today we’re talking about ZYN Cool Mint Mini Dry. This is the Swedish version of this flavor and comes in the mini dry format. So, without further ado, let’s get better aquainted with this product and do a review!

Product Specifics:

Can Weight: 8 grams
Portion Format: Mini Dry Nicotine Pouches
Portion Count: 20 pouches
Portion Weight: 0.4 grams each
Nicotine (Total mg/g): 7.5mg/g
Nicotine %: 0.75%
Nicotine (mg/Portion): 3mg/pouch

When you open the can, you’ll notice that the pouches are smaller and size, and quite dry. There is no added moisture to these, so you’ll have to wait until they have been under your lip for a few minutes before they get moist and begin to soften up. The aroma of this one is quite mild, and pleasant. The mint character is very gentle, with a subtle sweetness to it.

Once the pouches are under the lip and your saliva softens the pouch up, you’ll find a nice cooling presence comes on, and the flavor starts to develop more. The taste is not too bold, or powerful by any means. The mint flavor is a mild, refreshing taste of peppermint with a very light menthol character in the background. It stays pretty gentle, in nature.

The nicotine strength on this one is pretty mild; this is a product for those who have lighter nicotine cravings. It feels to be below the regular strength level. The flavor lasts for about 30-35 minutes, on average.

Wrap-Up & Recommendation:

The mini dry category is very popular amongst those who use nicotine pouches. And, the Zyn brand is quite possible one of the most popular around. If you’re a mint lover looking for a product to try out, this is one you should consider. There is also a stronger version of this one available, and a slim/moist version available as well. The ZYN line is quite flexible, and has products for anyone!

Snubie’s Opinion:

I am not the biggest fan of the mini dry format. For me, it’s just not one I really enjoy. If you do, that’s cool, it’s just not my cup of tea. However, I do like the Cool Mint flavor in the Zyn catalog. For this flavor, I prefer it in the slim/moist pouch, or it’s cousin Volt Cool Crisp. However you enjoy it, Swedish Match has a peppermint flavor for you in whatever format you are seeking, whether it’s Zyn or Volt!
