KLAR Slim- Mint Extra Strong 9mg

Nine milligrams in a bioceramic slim makes KLAR Mint 9mg the strongest plain mint KLAR sells. The brand labels it Extra Strong and pitches it at people who already reach for pouches of 10mg and above. Like every KLAR, it is made by Emplicure in Uppsala on a patented calcium-based bioceramic rather than the usual plant-fibre filler.

Who KLAR Mint 9mg is made for

If a 6mg pouch no longer registers, this is the next move inside the brand. KLAR claims its calcium-based granules release nicotine faster than a fibre pouch, so it markets 9mg as a match for higher-numbered cans from other makers. Our site files it under Strong, one step below the Extra Strong group where most 11mg to 14mg slims sit. Treat it as a firm pouch: if you are coming from 6mg or less, the mini cans are the better place to start.

A bigger pouch than the 3mg and 6mg minis

Here is the detail most shoppers miss: the 6mg and 9mg share the same 15mg/g concentration. The extra 3mg comes from a larger slim pouch of roughly 0.6g instead of the 0.4g mini, so the can weighs 12g rather than 8g. Expect a fuller feel under the lip, and a pouch that still turns soft within moments because the granules take on moisture quickly.

• Per pouch: 9mg nicotine
• Per gram: 15mg

The mint itself is cool and direct, with nothing fruity layered on top, and it holds its freshness well into a long session. For a conventional 10mg slim with a different mint character, CLEW Wintergreen 10mg is a sensible sideways step, while KLAR Blueberry Mint 9mg keeps this exact pouch and adds berry.
