ZYN

What strengths does ZYN come in?

The ZYN range here runs from 3mg to 16.5mg per pouch, which covers four of our five strength tiers.

At the light end, ZYN Black Cherry Mini sits at 3mg in the low strength band — the gentlest starting point in the whole catalogue. The 6mg and 9mg options (Cool Watermelon, Cool Blueberry, Red Fruits, Black Cherry Mini Strong) fall into medium strength. The bulk of the range sits at 11mg to 13.5mg in the strong band, and ZYN Menthol Ice 16.5mg is the only one that reaches extra strong.

One thing worth knowing: ZYN uses its own labels, so a pouch named "Mini Strong" is 6mg and a "Mini Medium" is 3mg. Those describe where the pouch sits within ZYN's own Mini range, not where it sits against the rest of the market. The milligram figure on each product page is the number to go by.

What flavours are available?

The mint side covers Spearmint Strong, Menthol Ice in two strengths, and Blueberry Mint for something between the two categories. Menthol Ice is the coldest of them by a distance.

On the fruit side there is Cool Watermelon in 6mg and 11mg, Cool Blueberry, Blueberry Frost, Red Fruits, Red Berry Fizz and Black Cherry. Guava Spice is the outlier — tropical fruit with a warm edge rather than a cooling one. ZYN Coffee Strong is the only non-fruit, non-mint option in the range and the one people either return to constantly or never order twice.

Which ZYN should you start with?

If you have not used pouches before, start at 3mg or 6mg and give it a week before moving up. The Minis are also physically smaller, which makes the first few easier to get used to.

If you are switching from another brand at a similar strength, match the milligram figure rather than the name on the tin — brands label their tiers differently, and 11mg from one is 11mg from another. Most people moving across from vaping or smoking land somewhere in the 6mg to 11mg range.

Frequently asked questions

Do ZYN pouches contain tobacco?

No. ZYN pouches are all-white and tobacco-free. They contain nicotine but no tobacco leaf, and they produce no smoke or vapour.

What is the difference between a ZYN Mini and a standard pouch?

Minis are physically smaller and sit more discreetly under the lip. They also tend to carry lower nicotine figures, which is why they suit people starting out.

Which ZYN is the strongest?

ZYN Menthol Ice 16.5mg is the strongest in this range, sitting in the extra strong tier. If you want to go higher than that, the ultra strong collection covers 20mg and above from other brands.

Does PouchMart ship ZYN across Canada?

Yes — fast, discreet shipping nationwide, with nothing on the packaging identifying the contents.
