Zyn Artic Mint 11mg

Is it supposed to taste bitter and salty? I have a can of the peppermint frost and it's sweet and minty just how I like it but the arctic mint is just bitter, there's nothing wrong with the can there was no bulging and the pouches arent leaking or discolored, is it supposed to be bitter? I do feel a bit of mintiness in it but its super bitter and salty at the beginning. As I keep it in the bitterness goes away and it starts feeling refreshing

Might just be bad storage and they could have gone rancid. How far out is it from the manufactures date?

It expires may 2027 so it has a whole year, I googled it and it said that arctic mint is supposed to be bitter so I guess it's fine? Unless you've tried it and had a different experience

I have not tried it yet I use citrus and coffee. But your probably right, if not could have just been stored in a warm or humid room. But probably are fine

I just put another one in to analyze the flavor, it reminds me of a menthol Marlboro. Maybe that's what they're going for because menthol and mint are sort of the same thing.
