ZYN Slim – Menthol Ice 16.5mg

For experienced users who want ZYN’s maximum, ZYN Menthol Ice 16.5mg pairs eucalyptus and menthol with the most nicotine the brand puts in a slim pouch. Each can holds 20 pouches. A search for 16.5mg ZYN turns up two flavours, and this is the eucalyptus one.

What ZYN’s S6 label means

ZYN’s strongest cans use a six-step scale, and S6 is the top of it. Each pouch carries 23.57mg of nicotine per gram, half as much again as an 11mg S4 can. The tingle builds quickly and stays strong, so this is not a pouch to try as your first move above 11mg; ZYN Menthol Ice 13.5mg is the bridge.

ZYN Menthol Ice 16.5mg against Cool Mint Ice

The other 16.5mg ZYN is ZYN Cool Mint Ice 16.5mg. Both share the strength and a 0.7g pouch, so the difference is flavour alone. Cool Mint Ice runs on peppermint, whereas this can uses eucalyptus, which reads drier and more herbal. Pick by taste, not by strength.

Same eucalyptus at every Menthol Ice strength

The listed notes are identical across the 11mg, 13.5mg and 16.5mg Menthol Ice cans, so moving between them changes the nicotine and nothing else. This can holds 20 pouches in 14g, about 0.7g each, a touch heavier than the 0.68g pouches in ZYN’s S2 to S4 slims.

• Per pouch: 16.5mg nicotine
• Per gram: 23.57mg
• Level: Ultra Strong
• ZYN’s marking: S6, the top of six
• Format: Slim
• 20 pouches in a 14g can
• Each pouch: 0.7g

If you have reached ZYN’s ceiling and want a comparison, NEAFS Menthol Extra Strong 16mg is a menthol slim at almost the same level. Everything else from the brand is listed under ZYN pouches.
