Lime with a cactus on the side
Cactus Lime is the Après can that gets a second look on the shelf, because nobody is sure what a cactus tastes like until they try one. The answer is that lime leads and the cactus is the note behind it. Après is a Swedish brand from Stockholm making tobacco free nicotine pouches, and it numbers its cans like a menu, so look for N°9 on the lid. This one carries 8.3mg a pouch, the lower of the two Après strengths on our shelf. Tastes like a lime that went somewhere interesting. If citrus is your thing, this is a good first Après.
What it tastes like
Lime first, every time, bright and sharp the way lime is. The cactus sits behind it as a second note, giving the lime some company, and that is as far as the description goes. Together they land like a lime cordial with something green at the edge of the glass. There is no mint in the can, so the freshness here is all citrus. Snus with a citrus lead tends to stay lively from the first pouch to the last, and this one does. The name is odd and the flavour is simple, which is a good combination.
How strong it is
Each pouch carries 8.3mg, which puts Cactus Lime in the medium band on our scale, 8mg to 16mg, right at the start of it. Après sorts its range by strength, with lines the maker calls Normal, Extra Strong and Hypèr Strong, and 8.3mg is the per pouch figure for Extra Strong. Après also makes Cactus Lime at 11mg, the Hypèr Strong figure, so if this number feels like a warm up there is a bigger one. On our shelf the Après cans run from 8.3 to 11mg. The pouches contain nicotine but no tobacco, as the maker puts it. A medium that starts gently, with a flavour that does not.

Who it is for
Cactus Lime suits anyone who likes citrus snus and wants a medium strength that starts low. If you are new to snus, 8.3mg is a friendly first number, and lime is a flavour that keeps things lively while you get used to it. It also suits regular users who want a sharper daytime can next to something sweeter. And it suits the curious, because the cactus question is a fun one to answer yourself.
If you want the same lime at a bigger number, Après makes Cactus Lime at 11mg too. If you want a different citrus at 8.3mg, Tangerine Spritz is the sweeter route. Open the N°9 first and let the lime make its case.
