“Siberia Brown” is searched for regularly but is not part of the range. Three colors are stocked: Red, Black and Blue. This article explains what the colors mean at Siberia and which version comes closest to what people are looking for.
What the colors mean at Siberia
The color on the can stands for two things at once: for the flavor and — often overlooked — for the strength as well.
| Color | Flavor | Pouch | Nicotine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red | Mint, cool | White Dry | ca. 43 mg/g |
| Black | Tobacco, strong | White Dry | ca. 43 mg/g |
| Blue | Mint, clear | White | ca. 24 mg/g |
There is no brown can in this line. Anyone searching for Brown usually means one of two things.
Usually Black is meant
Black is the only Siberia variety without mint. Instead of cooling, the tobacco taste comes to the fore — strong and dark. Exactly what many people associate with “brown” when it comes to chewing tobacco: the tobacco-forward profile as opposed to the mint varieties.
Black is stocked as Slim and as Mini, both at around 43 mg of nicotine per gram. There is no Regular format for this variety.
Or loose chewing tobacco is meant
The second possibility: “brown” as a contrast to the white pouches. Classic loose chewing tobacco is brown and moist, modern portion pouches are pale and dry. This range contains portion pouches only — loose chewing tobacco is not stocked.
Anyone wanting to get as close as possible to “as little white as possible” is right with Black: tobacco-forward in taste, in a pale, dry pouch.
What Brown does not mean
- Not a strength level of its own. At Siberia, colors denote flavor and strength together, but there is no continuous scale from light to dark.
- Not a pouch size. Those are called Mini, Slim and Regular.
- Not a type of packaging. For that there are the can, the softpack and the 500 g box.
