What ZYN strengths are available?

ZYN offers 3 mg, 6 mg, 9 mg, and 11–12 mg strengths, depending on flavor and format. Each strength provides a unique balance between flavor, intensity, and duration.

What do the dots on a ZYN can mean?

The dot system indicates overall intensity rather than exact nicotine content. More dots mean stronger perceived sensation and faster release rate.

Which strength should beginners try?

Start with 3 mg to ensure comfort. After one week, you can step up to 6 mg if 3 mg feels too light.

How do I know if I should switch strengths?

If pouches feel too mild or short-lasting, move up one level. If you feel dizzy or experience throat tingling, step back down to a lower mg strength.

Do format and flavor change perceived strength?

Yes. Slim formats often release nicotine faster than mini ones. Mint or menthol flavors usually feel stronger than fruity or coffee profiles due to cooling agents.

Extra Tips for Choosing Your Strength

• Consistency matters: Test each strength for several sessions before changing.
• Stay hydrated: Dry mouth can intensify perceived strength.
• Switch flavors smartly: Some flavors feel milder even at the same mg.
