Pineapple Ice, IGET Bar 3500 Puffs

Pineapple here is sharp rather than sugary, which is the right call. You get the acidic bite of fresh fruit on the inhale, the kind that makes the sides of your tongue tingle, and then the ice lands on the exhale and turns the whole thing into something closer to a frozen pineapple slice.

It is a hot weather flavour, plain and simple. Barbecues, beaches, anywhere the air is thick and a heavy dessert flavour would be unbearable.

Details worth having: this is the IGET Bar 3500, rated at 3,500 puffs, and it sells for $32.

The acidity is the sticking point. Pineapple is one of the tartest fruits used in this category, and over a long session that sharpness can start to feel abrasive. If you already avoid citrus and sour profiles, pick a melon or a berry instead of trying to acclimatise to this one.

A small practical point. Sharp fruit profiles are the ones most affected by warmth, so keep it somewhere shaded on a long day out if you want the acidity to stay clean rather than turning sour on you.

Nothing about the device changes, but the flavour genuinely reads differently at thirty five degrees than it does indoors.

Purchases are limited to adults. You must be at least 18.
