The top of the XQS mint shelf
XQS names three of its mint cans with a plain definite article, The Spearmint, The Peppermint and The Menthol. XQS The Menthol 11mg is the sharpest of the three and the highest in number on this shelf. The lid prints THE MENTHOL, with the XQS logo, a row of six bars and the figure 11 MG. Five of those six bars are filled in. The brand itself is Swedish and part of Scandinavian Tobacco Group. If mint is your habit and you like it cold, start here.
What it tastes like
This is menthol in its plainest form. The maker describes it as sharp, with a clean, cold lift that arrives early. There is no fruit and no sweetness competing for attention, only mint at its coldest setting. Side by side with The Peppermint and The Spearmint, it is the coolest of the three. The flavour stays sharp and clean from the first moment. Cold, bold menthol is the summary.
How strong it is
Each pouch holds 11mg. On the shop's scale the medium band runs from 8mg up to 16mg, so The Menthol sits in the lower half of medium. It is also the highest figure among the XQS cans here, one step above the 10mg cans, with the 8mg fruit cans and The Spearmint at 6mg below. The three mint cans share a slim pouch of 0.75g, which makes 15g for a can of 20. The five filled bars on the lid are the maker's own marker for this can. Read the mg figure first and the bars second.

Who it is for
The Menthol suits you if you use snus regularly and mint is the only flavour you want. It fits if a medium can is already your usual and you prefer the colder end of the mint shelf. It also completes a tidy set, since The Peppermint at 10mg and The Spearmint at 6mg sit beside it. Three mints, three numbers, one brand.
A can holds 20 slim pouches, tobacco free. One can will show you the flavour and the strength together. Sharp, cold menthol at 11mg a pouch. Add it to the basket and see how the cold suits you.
