ZYN Slim – Cool Mint Ice 13.5mg

For seasoned users after a hard-hitting mint, ZYN Cool Mint Ice 13.5mg delivers peppermint and menthol at XX-Strong level in a moist Slim pouch. The flavour is smooth and balanced, yet the strength is clearly aimed at experienced users. It slots one step below our 16.5mg Cool Mint Ice can. Think of it as the classic ZYN mint pushed close to the top of the scale.

How strong ZYN Cool Mint 13.5mg feels

ZYN Cool Mint 13.5mg sits at Extra Strong on our scale, and the brand marks the lid XX-Strong with five dots. Anyone coming from 6mg or 9mg cans should expect a much more pronounced tingle and a longer-lasting effect. If 11mg already feels firm to you, this is a deliberate step up rather than a casual swap.

Why we call it Cool Mint Ice

The lid simply reads Cool Mint, XX-Strong. Its PMI product code, G0002390, is the same one ZYN uses for Cool Mint Ice Regular 13.5mg, the name ZYN gives this can, so we list it that way to match our 16.5mg can. It is not ZYN Menthol Ice 13.5mg, which is a separate eucalyptus-and-menthol product.

The mint itself stays clean and uncomplicated, with peppermint leading and menthol adding a crisp, icy lift. There is no sweetness or herbal twist to distract from it, so the strength and the cooling are the whole story.

Those who want the top rung can move to ZYN Slim Cool Mint Ice 16.5mg, a can ZYN also sells under the Cool Mint Max name. For a different cold profile at the same dose, ZYN Slim Menthol Ice 13.5mg leans more towards eucalyptus. Find the full selection on the ZYN brand page.
