KLAR Mini – Mint Regular 3mg

For a first can or a lighter afternoon, KLAR Mint 3mg offers plain mint in a small bioceramic mini at the brand’s Regular strength. There is no fruit and no novelty in the flavour, just mint that stays fresh from the first minute to the last. The pouch comes from Emplicure, a bioscience company in Uppsala, Sweden, which says it has no ties to the tobacco industry.

Why a 3mg KLAR is not a token dose

KLAR builds its pouches around calcium-based bioceramic granules rather than plain plant fibre, and it says this releases nicotine faster than an ordinary pouch. On the strength of a 2025 clinical study it commissioned, the brand claims this 3mg feels quicker and stronger than the market leader’s 6mg. That is why KLAR aims its Regular cans at people who currently use anything from 3mg to 6mg, not only at beginners.

KLAR Mint 3mg or ZYN Mini Dry Cool Mint 3mg?

On paper the two match: both are minis, both hold 3mg. The difference is the base. ZYN Mini Dry Cool Mint 3mg is a deliberately dry pouch that takes a moment to wake up, while KLAR’s granules hydrate on contact, so this one softens almost straight away. If you like a pouch that feels moist and settles quickly, start here; if you prefer a crisp, dry feel, the ZYN suits better. The KLAR mini is small enough to sit unnoticed under the top lip, and the brand puts the working life of each one at around three quarters of an hour.

• Nicotine per pouch: 3mg
• Per gram: 7.5mg
• Site level: Light (KLAR calls it Regular)

Once 3mg feels light, KLAR Mint Strong 6mg keeps the same mini and the same mint at double the nicotine. Fruit flavours, the Afterglow edition and the 9mg slims are all listed under KLAR nicotine pouches.
