XQS The Spearmint 6mg is a smooth, gently sweet spearmint with a light cooling finish, at 6mg a pouch. It is the softest of the XQS mints and the lightest, sitting in the shop's light band in a slim pouch. A natural pick for anyone who likes their snus mild and their mint rounded.

Where the XQS mints begin

Every range needs a first step, and for the XQS cans on this shelf it is this one. XQS The Spearmint 6mg is the lowest in number of the brand's cans here and the softest in flavour of its three mints. The lid prints THE SPEARMINT with the XQS logo, a row of six bars and the figure 6 MG. Three of the six bars are filled. The brand is Swedish, belongs to Scandinavian Tobacco Group, and is dated by its maker to 2005 in Jämtland. Start here if you like your mint smooth.

What it tastes like

Spearmint is the rounder member of the mint family, and this can shows why. The flavour comes through smoothly, fresh and clean, with a natural sweetness lifting it. A light cooling finish follows and adds freshness at the end. Side by side with The Peppermint and The Menthol, this is the sweeter and softer mint of the three. Nothing else shares the pouch, no fruit and no second mint. Smooth, lightly sweet spearmint is the whole of it.

How strong it is

Each pouch holds 6mg. The shop's light band covers everything under 8mg, so The Spearmint is a light can, and medium begins at 8mg. It is the lowest figure among the XQS cans here, with the fruit cans at 8mg and 10mg, The Peppermint at 10mg and The Menthol at 11mg above it. The pouch is slim and weighs 0.75g, which makes 15g for a can of 20. The three filled bars on the lid are the maker's own marker. The mg figure is the one to shop by.

Who it is for

The Spearmint suits you if you use snus and prefer to stay in the light band. It also suits anyone whose usual can sits under 8mg and who wants a mint with some sweetness to it. If you later want the same naming with a higher number, The Peppermint at 10mg is the next XQS mint up. The three share a pouch weight and a naming style, so moving between them is simple.

A can holds 20 slim pouches, tobacco free. One can is enough to learn it. Smooth spearmint, a light cooling finish, 6mg a pouch. Add a single can to the basket and begin there.
