Flavor Profiles of Heets

Table of contents
The flavor profiles of HEETS fall into three simple families: plain tobacco, menthol, and tobacco with fruit or herbal notes. This guide describes how each blend tastes in plain words and helps you choose. HEETS are for IQOS blade devices only. They contain nicotine and are not risk free.
How to read a HEETS flavour
Three things shape the taste of a stick:
- Body: how full or light the tobacco feels.
- Cooling: whether there is menthol, and how strong it is.
- Notes: extra flavours such as citrus, berry, herbs, cocoa or nuts.
Taste strength is not the same as nicotine. A full-bodied stick tastes richer but is not a “stronger nicotine” stick.
Plain tobacco flavour profiles
- Silver: the lightest. Soft tobacco with a gentle herbal note and no added flavour.
- Amber: full-bodied with nutty and woody notes. A common first choice for people who want a classic tobacco taste.
- Bronze: intense and warm, with cocoa and dried fruit notes.
Menthol flavour profiles
- Turquoise: firm tobacco base with a clean, cool menthol finish.
- Green Zing: menthol with citrus and light herbal notes, brighter than Turquoise.
Fruit and herbal flavour profiles
- Yellow: light and mellow, with zesty citrus and a mild spice.
- Yellow Green: lively citrus with soft herbal notes, no menthol.
- Purple Wave: dark berry and wild spice with a light menthol touch.
- Sun Pearl: roasted tobacco with summer berry and menthol.
- Arbor Pearl: malty tobacco, then green orchard fruit and a light menthol finish.
