The new Mug Snufkin was released early in 2015, to replace the mug that was no longer manufactured. Also known as Snufkin Green, the mug was launched in March 2015 and it is still in production. The mug pictures the front and back of Snufkin, in a typical calm and peaceful style. Tove Slotte chose the images from Tove Jansson’s first original comic strip #1 Moomin and the Brigands.
