Alp Spearmint 6mg pairs one of Alp's lightest mints, a crisp and clean spearmint, with 6mg a pouch. That is the lowest strength in the range and sits in the shop's light band, so flavour and strength are both gentle. A natural first tin for anyone who likes their snus light.

Where the ALP mint shelf begins

ALP arrived in the UK in July 2026 with eight flavours, and five of them are mints. That's a lot of mint to choose between, so it helps to know where each one sits. ALP Spearmint 6mg is the lighter end on both counts, a soft mint at the lowest strength the brand makes here. ALP itself is American, a brand that began in the United States in 2024. Every tin holds 20 pouches and all of them are tobacco free. Start here if you want the range at its most relaxed.

The flavour, plainly

Spearmint is the rounder member of the mint family, and ALP keeps to that. The brand describes this one as a crisp, natural spearmint that is lighter and softer than peppermint. Side by side with the other four mints, ALP ranks Spearmint and Sweet Mint as the lightest of the set, with Chilled Mint in the middle and Frostbite at the cooling end. So this is mint for people who like the green, fresh side of it. ALP also describes its pouches as moist. It's a flavour you'll recognise from the first pouch.

Where 6mg sits

Each pouch holds 6mg, and ALP labels every tin by the single pouch, so the figure needs no working out. On our strength scale that puts it in the light band, which covers everything under 8mg. ALP makes each of its flavours at three strengths, 6mg, 12mg and 18mg, and this is the first of them. The 12mg tin of Spearmint sits in our medium band and the 18mg tin in our strong band. In snus terms, this is the gentle step of the three. The spearmint is the same in all of them, and only the number changes.

Who it suits

Spearmint 6mg suits you if you like a lighter snus and a mint that stays soft. It's also a sensible pick if you already know ALP at a higher strength and want the same flavour with a lower figure. ALP's own line is that its pouches are for adults who already use nicotine. If you find you want more from the same mint, the 12mg and 18mg tins are on this shelf too.

There are 20 pouches in the tin, tobacco free throughout. One tin is enough to tell you whether spearmint is your mint. If you only try one of ALP's lighter cans, this one keeps things simple. Crisp spearmint, light band, lowest step of the range.
