KLINT Slim – Arctic Mint 14mg

Cool rather than freezing, KLINT Arctic Mint 14mg pairs a mint base with a measured menthol note inside a slim white pouch. Its lid carries #5 and X-Strong, one rung below the brand’s Ultra-Strong Avalanche Mint. The chill builds steadily and holds, instead of hitting all at once and fading, which suits a long desk session or a drive where you want even freshness.

Where KLINT Arctic Mint 14mg sits on the mint ladder

Our KLINT mint cans climb in four steps: plain Mint at 4mg, Freeze Mint at 11.2mg, Arctic Mint at 14mg and Avalanche Mint at 17.5mg. Arctic Mint is where strength goes up while the cold eases back, because KLINT gives Freeze Mint a much heavier menthol and peppermint load. Coming from Freeze Mint, you gain 2.8mg per pouch and give up some of the bite. The lid numbers run in the same order, from strength 1 on plain Mint to #6 on Avalanche.

How the slim pouch wears

Each pouch weighs about 0.7g and is cut long and narrow, so it lies flat against the gum under the upper lip. KLINT suggests keeping one in for up to 30 to 40 minutes. A 14g can holds 20 pouches, and the lid includes a top compartment for used ones.

• Per pouch: 14mg nicotine
• Per gram: 20mg
• Store rating: Extra Strong; KLINT label #5 X-Strong
• Cut: slim, white, no tobacco
• Can: 20 pouches, 14g
• Taste: mint with a balanced menthol tone
