I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest coffee enthusiast. I'm more of a tea guy. But, I know how popular Zyn is, so I wanted to review these Limited Edition offerings from PMI/Swedish Match. These are the slim/moist Zyn products, exclusive to Sweden. We have two flavors today: Dark Roast, and Macchiato! These two come in different strengths, but the contents are the same: 14.7 grams of total weight, 21 pouches per can, weighing 0.7 grams each. The pouches are the slim, moist type and are pretty soft under the lip. Now, as a non-coffee enthusiast, I'll do my best to be objective in my reviews and describe what these taste like!
Flavor Description: "A taste of dark roasted coffee with hints of chili".
Nicotine Strength: 15.6mg/g, which is 10.92mg/pouch
My Thoughts: Opening the can, this smells a lot like opening a bag of coffee beans. My wife makes a lot of the cold brew coffee, so it reminds me a lot of that dark, bitter coffee aroma. In the flavor profile, this one has a classic black coffee taste. It seems to have a little heat to it, and a faint tone of chocolate. The nicotine level feels to be about the strong level, and I get about 40-45 minutes of flavor out of this one.
Zyn Macchiato
Flavor Description: "A creamy coffee taste".
Nicotine Strength: 12.86mg/g, which is 9mg/pouch
My Thoughts: In the aroma, this one has a pretty creamy, sweet smell. There's a light tone of caramel to it, perhaps a little chocolate, and a mild coffee nature. Flavor-wise, this one is more sweet than the last one. The coffee flavor is also a little more mellow in it. It does have a creamy/caramel type of essence to it. It's relatively smooth. In the strength, this one feels closer to the regular strength level. The flavor, on average, lasts about 40-45 minutes.
Rating and Final Thoughts
Again, I'm not a big coffee guy. I rated Macchiato at 3.33/5, and Dark Roast at 3.17/5. I imagine if you like coffee, you'll enjoy these. And if you're in Sweden. I'm in the US and these were hard to get ahold of. But, I'm glad I got to try them out!
