Mango Ice, IGET Star L7000

Mango carries an entire flavour on its own, which is unusual for a single fruit. The inhale is thick and almost creamy, ripe and golden rather than the green mango you find shredded through a salad, with the faintly resinous quality that mango skin gives off. Ice arrives late, only on the exhale, and it is restrained next to the harsher menthol blends. It registers as coolness more than as mint.

People reach for mango when they want sweetness that is not a berry. It also holds up in heat, which is why it sells hardest through a Queensland summer.

Choosing by capacity

• XXL at 1,800 puffs: a short run, good for testing a flavour
• Hot at 5,500 puffs: the middle option
• Star at 7,000 puffs: this device, the longest runner

The price is $49.98. One drawback worth naming: rich tropical flavours are the ones most likely to feel heavy when you vape continuously, and mango is the richest thing we stock. Age verification applies, 18 and over.
