The most comprehensive introduction to 28 tobacco stick flavors. IQOS is a globally popular heated tobacco product, and those who understand it know that IQOS requires tobacco sticks, with many brands and a variety of flavors. Many people ask which flavor is better to smoke. It seems that everyone is confused about the choice of tobacco stick flavors. Although the shop does not sell tobacco sticks, we can discuss it together. Therefore, I have compiled an introduction to all 28 tobacco stick flavors to share with everyone. Let's take a look!
Introduction to 28 tobacco stick flavors
7 flavors from Japan's Marlboro + 4 flavors from Korea's FIIT + 6 flavors from European Heets + 7 flavors from Korean Heets + 2 flavors from Paloma + 2 new flavors from Wanshin (continuously updated...)
1. Four flavors of Korean FIIT
This is the first tobacco stick with a burst bead that can be used with IQOS. This brand's tobacco sticks were originally designed for the Korean device LIL, but since the usage method is the same, they can also be used with IQOS. However, these tobacco sticks are slightly longer than the dedicated IQOS sticks by about 3 to 4 millimeters. The length increase is only at the filter end, while the tobacco part remains the same.
【FIIT Lemon Burst】: The flavor is unique; it has a lemon taste. If you do not crush the burst bead, you will not naturally taste the lemon flavor, but once crushed, the flavor becomes very rich, with a cool base and the aroma of lemon, providing a refreshing and fruity experience.
【FIIT Cantaloupe Burst】: The flavor is similar to the original lemon flavor but definitely surpasses it. The fruit flavor becomes more fragrant when heated, and it has a minty taste, making it the best among the burst bead options.
【FIIT Yogurt Burst】: Yes, you read that right; it is yogurt-flavored and cool. What does yogurt taste like when you smoke it? Let me tell you: when you take the tobacco stick out, it does not have any special smell, but once you crush the burst bead, a rich yogurt flavor wafts out. Yes, it really is yogurt flavor. Then, when you insert the tobacco stick into the device and heat it, the cool yogurt flavor fills your mouth.
【FIIT Macadamia (No Burst)】: The only FIIT flavor without a burst bead, suitable for those who prefer the original taste. It is more suitable for old smokers who pursue an extremely rich flavor.
2. Six flavors of European Heets, including various versions: Russian, Kazakh, Ukrainian, and Armenian versions are collectively referred to as European versions.
【European Heets Original Flavor】: The most cost-effective option, with a hint of vanilla flavor. Even when taking big puffs, it does not feel harsh on the throat, and instead feels quite satisfying. Finishing one stick does not leave a greasy feeling in the mouth, and the flavor is quite unique.
【European Heets Amber】: Also known as strong original flavor, it is richer than the original flavor and suitable for old smokers. Although the flavor is strong, it is not dry, and finishing it does not leave an unpleasant feeling in the mouth. Taking big puffs does not irritate the throat.
【European Heets Mint】: The most cost-effective cool flavor, with a refreshing taste that is gentle. Smoking it feels comfortable, and the mint flavor is light, making it easier to accept.
【European Heets Grape】: Based on a mint flavor with a hint of grape aroma, the tobacco flavor is not very strong, soft and fragrant. Compared to Marlboro blueberry, the grape flavor is more pronounced, with less bitterness. When smoking, others will find it fragrant, but this flavor is not suitable for long-term smoking as it may become overwhelming.
【European Heets Matcha】: Part of the mint series, with a moderate amount, it has a faint matcha aroma when smoked, providing a good taste. Those who enjoy cool flavors but do not like them too strong can give this a try, as it offers great value.
【European Heets Rum】: Part of the original flavor series, it is stronger than amber flavor and suitable for old smokers. If the strong original flavor does not satisfy you, you can try this one.
3. Nine flavors of Japanese Marlboro. The first four classic flavors were released in November 2016, while the two new flavors, nut and blueberry, were released in March 2017, and the lime flavor was released in May 2018, along with two limited edition flavors, coffee and orange.
【Light Mint】: Similar to Paloma mint, but the tobacco aspect is more pronounced. The price is justified. The mint is light, but the tobacco is strong, making it suitable for daily use. Daily use should be slightly lighter and not too strong, as overly strong flavors can become overwhelming.
【Strong Mint】: Both mint and tobacco flavors are particularly strong. This tobacco stick is very suitable for those who enjoy black ice and double burst flavors. The mint flavor effectively covers the initial unpleasant tastes, with a strong tobacco flavor that can effectively replace real cigarettes, providing a very cool experience.
#p#分页标题#e#
【Light Original Flavor】: Has a faint yet distinct aroma, stronger than mixed tobacco but much lighter than roasted tobacco. It is smooth and comfortable, not harsh or intense, making it easy to smoke!
【Strong Original Flavor】: The flavor is very close to that of real cigarettes but stronger, with a rich tobacco aroma and no other bitter flavors. If you take big puffs, there will be a slight impact on the throat. The tobacco flavor is irresistible.
【Nut Flavor】: The addition of nuts creates a strong throat hit, reducing smoothness. This tobacco stick is rich and intense, suitable for old smokers. The nut flavor can feel scratchy in the throat, providing a lot of stimulation. Slowly savoring it will reveal a very subtle aroma.
【Blueberry Flavor】: The coolest mint flavor, similar to the taste after bursting the burst bead. Upon careful tasting, there is a slight mint bitterness, and the blueberry flavor is very faint. After smoking, a subtle blueberry flavor lingers. If you enjoy extremely cool flavors, you must try the blueberry flavor.
【Lime Flavor】: A refreshing lime flavor that is very pleasant. After smoking, it feels like you just had a glass of iced lemonade, refreshing your breath, and the taste is very smooth, not as cool as blueberry, but very refreshing. Personally, I think this is the best flavor from Marlboro.
Marlboro's new flavors: The coffee and orange flavors were released on May 4, 2018, as limited editions.
【Marlboro Coffee】: The name is indeed tempting, like drinking a cup of Americano? Do you add milk? Haha.
As for coffee, I personally think it tastes similar to strong leaf flavors, as you can see in the promotional images, many leaves.
~Some partners have reported that smoking Marlboro coffee tastes like the original flavor of European Heets... Haha.
【Marlboro Orange】: Everyone must be curious about the orange flavor, which is more like a faint leaf flavor, similar to the taste of a leaf, something along those lines, based on my personal taste.
4. Seven flavors of Korean HEETS
【Korean HEETS Green Light Mint】: This flavor is quite good among mint options. Comparing it with Marlboro's light mint, it is clearer. In other words, it is lighter than Marlboro's strong mint but stronger than Marlboro's light mint. The flavor is good, and if you like mint, this is a good choice.
【Korean HEETS Silver Original Flavor】: Equivalent to the Kazakh HEETS Yellow Original Flavor, this flavor is quite average, with no significant characteristics, close to the taste of real cigarettes, slightly dry. For me, it is a flavor I would only buy once. Simply put, it is a flavorless original tobacco stick. However, if you only like HEETS and cannot handle particularly strong flavors, you can choose this flavor.
【Korean HEETS Amber Strong Original Flavor】: This flavor is almost indistinguishable from the Kazakh Amber flavor previously tasted. It is rich and flavorful. Since it is a stronger original flavor, taking big puffs will naturally have some "throat hit". Note that the throat hit is neither good nor bad; it entirely depends on personal preference. For example, old smokers will definitely enjoy it, and I personally like to smoke this flavor after drinking. After finishing one stick, there is a slight oily feeling in the mouth, which is quite nice. This flavor is still recommended.
【Korean HEETS Ice Blue Strong Mint】: Flavor evaluations are subjective, so I want to say that this is my favorite mint flavor tobacco stick. Because it is really very cool and has no bitter taste. Every time I smoke this flavor, it instantly refreshes my mind and gives me a very refreshing feeling in my mouth. I really like this flavor, but it is said that its price has also been inflated. So whether to buy this depends on your wallet.
【Korean HEETS Purple Ice Grape】: Based on a mint flavor with a hint of grape aroma, I knew from the first puff that this flavor would be popular. Sure enough, the price has skyrocketed now. Of course, the original price remains unchanged. The tobacco flavor is not strong, soft, and fragrant, making it very suitable for girls. When you smoke this flavor, others will find it fragrant, so you don't have to worry about some tobacco sticks smelling bad when you smoke them. Among these five Korean HEETS flavors, if you are not short on money, I recommend trying this one.
New flavor: 【Korean HEETS Rum Flavor】: Slowly smoking will reveal the aroma. The tobacco stick smells like rum, and while smoking, the rum flavor is not strong but quite fragrant, occasionally causing a slight cough, with better smoke output than the Korean Amber flavor.
New flavor: 【Korean HEETS Vanilla Flavor】: This flavor shares the same name as the European original flavor, YELLOW LABEL. It feels like this flavor is just filling in the gaps, with no significant difference from the European original flavor.
5. Two flavors from Paloma, which have been discontinued. Many people easily confuse them, thinking that "blue" represents mint, but actually, it is incorrect; "blue" is the original flavor, while "fresh" is the mint flavor.
【Paloma Original Flavor】: Paloma is a well-known tobacco brand in Russia, with a hollow mouthpiece, which is very characteristic. It has been discontinued and is no longer produced, but the flavor is excellent, making it a staple choice, and it has been acquired by Heets.
【Paloma Mint Flavor】: The current European Heets mint flavor is actually the predecessor of Paloma mint flavor, which has a high cost-performance ratio. If you have a channel to obtain it, you can try it, but the price is much higher than before. I still recommend the European Heets. When you smoke the European version, check the small packaging for the Paloma logo.
The above is the feedback on the 28 tobacco stick flavors compiled by me, hoping to be helpful to everyone. Taste is subjective, and everyone's taste buds and standards for judgment differ, so the above introduction is for reference only. If you do not like cool flavors, do not choose cool tobacco sticks; with so many flavors available, there is bound to be one that suits you.
