What does a brand look like when it puts everything into mint? On our shelf, Klint looks like three cans. All three are slim, and all three are made in Sweden by Habit Factory. What separates them is strength and temperature. Mint is 4.2mg a pouch and calm. Freeze Mint is 16mg and the coldest of the set. Arctic Mint is 20mg and fresh, with a mild chill. So the choice isn't whether you like mint. It's which strength suits you, and how cool you like it.
This page takes the three from lightest to strongest, then covers the maker, our strength scale, the can and how to choose. Start here, then pick your can.
4.2mg4.2mgKlint at 4.2mg a pouch sits in the light band on our strength scale, and it holds one can, Mint. The pouch is slim and the flavour is a classic, calm mint that isn't icy, with what the maker describes as a touch of eucalyptus. It suits anyone whose usual snus is a light one, or who keeps a lighter can beside a stronger one.
16mg16mgKlint at 16mg a pouch sits right where the strong band begins on our strength scale. One can holds the line, Freeze Mint, in a slim pouch. It's the coldest and most intense flavour of the three, a full mint with strong menthol and a sharp peppermint edge behind it. It suits people who already use strong snus and like their mint properly cold.
20mg20mgKlint at 20mg a pouch sits well inside the strong band on our strength scale, and it's the highest figure of the three. The can here is Arctic Mint, in a slim pouch. It's a fresh mint with a clear, balanced menthol note and a mild chill behind it, clean and rounded. It suits people who already use strong snus and want freshness ahead of cold.Klint Mint is the lightest can of the three and the simplest to describe. At 4.2mg a pouch it sits in the light band on our scale, which covers everything under 8mg. The flavour is a classic mint, kept simple. The maker says it focuses on the mint aromas without being too icy, and describes a subtle touch of eucalyptus alongside. Side by side with the other two, this is the calm one. If a light can is already your usual, start here.
Freeze Mint is where Klint turns the temperature down. It's 16mg a pouch, and on our scale the strong band starts at exactly 16mg, so this can stands on the first step of it. It's a full mint with a strong menthol cold, and a peppermint note that adds a sharp, spicy edge in the background. The maker describes it as composed for maximum intensity, with one of the most prominent cold sensations in its range. This is the coldest Klint on our shelf, even though it isn't the highest in strength. If strong snus is your usual and cold mint is your flavour, this is your can.
Arctic Mint is the top of our Klint shelf by strength. At 20mg a pouch it sits well inside the strong band, which runs from 16mg up to 25mg. The base is mint. A distinct menthol note sits on top, a mild chill sits underneath, and the maker describes the result as clean and well rounded. Side by side with Freeze Mint, this is the fresher and more balanced of the two strong cans. If you already use snus in the strong band and want freshness first, choose this one.
Klint is made in Sweden by Habit Factory, whose full legal name is Habit Factory in Sweden AB. The maker describes itself as a Scandinavian manufacturer, and Klint is one of its own brands. Its pouches are tobacco free, and they contain nicotine. The rest is the maker's own account. It says its pouches are formulated in its own laboratory, that everything is produced and packaged in house at its own facilities in Sweden, and that each product passes a quality control programme made for the purpose.
Our scale sorts every can by the nicotine in one pouch. Light is under 8mg. Medium runs from 8mg up to 16mg. Strong runs from 16mg up to 25mg, and extreme is 25mg and over. Mint at 4.2mg is light. Freeze Mint at 16mg and Arctic Mint at 20mg are both strong.
Notice the gap. Nothing from Klint on our shelf sits in the medium band, so the step from Mint to Freeze Mint is a big one, close to four times the figure. The step from Freeze Mint to Arctic Mint is a short one inside the same band. Know your band before you choose, and the rest is taste.
All three Klint cans on our shelf are slim, so the pouch feels the same whichever one you open. The pouches are tobacco free. For the number of pouches, go by the count printed on the can in your hand. The lid has a compartment for used pouches, which is useful when there's no bin nearby.
With three mints, the choice comes down to two questions. Which band do you use now, and how cool do you like your mint? If a light can is your usual, the answer is Mint, the classic, calm one. If strong snus is your usual, you've two cans to weigh up. Freeze Mint is the cold one, with strong menthol and a peppermint edge. Arctic Mint is higher in strength at 20mg, and fresher and more balanced in flavour, with a mild chill. So choose Freeze Mint for cold and Arctic Mint for fresh. If you only try one and the strong band is already home, make it Freeze Mint, because it shows Klint at its boldest.
