Double Apple Ice, IGET HOT 5500 Puffs

Adding ice to double apple shifts the balance in a way worth understanding before you order. The green apple on the inhale is already tart, and cold on the exhale exaggerates that sharpness until the blend reads almost like a chilled cider. Red apple underneath is still present, sweeter and mellower, but it takes more of a back seat than it does in the uncooled version. The traditional aniseed note stays faintly behind everything.

The overall effect is bright and clean rather than warm, and it is the version most people prefer through summer.

At 5,500 puffs, the Hot gives roughly three times the run of our 1,800 puff XXL while sitting under the 7,000 puff Star. It is priced at $46.90.

One honest word of warning: iced apple is quite sharp, and anyone with a sensitive throat may find tart fruit plus menthol harsher than a berry or a stone fruit would be. Nobody under 18 is permitted to buy this device.
