What is ZYN?
ZYN nicotine products were developed in Sweden – the home of nicotine pouches and "founding fathers" of Swedish tobacco snus – but while they may originate in Scandinavia, their popularity here has led to an entire range being developed specifically for the US market.

ZYN Strengths
All ZYN pouches are available in either:
While the concentration of nicotine you find across different pouches is consistent and based on milligrams (mg) per pouch, you may find that the strength you feel can vary from product to product. This perceived strength can be impacted by the flavor you pick (some customers report minty flavors to feel stronger than non-minty flavors) as well as your level of nicotine tolerance.
It's worth noting that ZYNs are dry (like most pouches available in the US) and a drier pouch tends to provide a more sustained nicotine release for 40-60 minutes.
