HEATED TOBACCO STICKS VS. E-LIQUIDS

Technology is changing the way we do just about everything. It's no surprise that the way adult smokers experience their taste for tobacco is changing too. Products that offer an experience similar to cigarette smoking have been at the forefront of research and development in the world of tobacco for more than 50 years now.

As a result, there are now a plethora of products for you to choose from vape pods to tobacco pouches and a host of things in between. So, if you’ve yet to decide on your preferred choice of tobacco vs. e-liquids or heated tobacco vs. e-liquids, let us help with this handy guide to the latest alternatives to smoking.

Heated tobacco devices and e-cigarettes – or e-cigs - couldn’t be more different. Both are designed to offer you an alternative to smoking, but that’s where the similarities end.

Ploom has waved goodbye to the combustion process associated with cigarettes. Its unique HeatFlow technology has ushered in a new era with technology that heats tobacco sticks instead of burning them. So, you can now enjoy rich tobacco taste without the smoke and ash and with less tobacco smell.

On the other hand, you have the e-cigarette or e-cigs. These have turned the concept of smoking on its head because they work with e-liquids and don’t contain tobacco.

E-liquids – sometimes called e-juice or vape juice – work with e-cigs. They include ingredients such as vegetable glycerine, propylene glycol, and flavoring.

What all e-cigs have in common is an atomizer containing a heat source and a wick that carries the e-liquid. With an e-cig, when you inhale, the liquid is heated to about 100°C and becomes the vapor you inhale – that process coined the now familiar term, vaping.

Mevius sticks are exclusive to Ploom. Every step, from seed to stick, has been designed to give you a modern tobacco flavor experience, thanks to our signature ActivBlend with added tobacco lamina.

You'll see the difference when you pop a Mevius stick into your Ploom X device. At one touch of a button, the unique HeatFlow technology heats the stick to 316°C to unlock real tobacco taste from the first puff to the last.

At last, you can enjoy all your favorite tobacco moments with the added pleasure of knowing it’s less intrusive to the people around you. That means you can enjoy a heated tobacco moment while catching up with friends without the smoke and ash of a cigarette and with less tobacco smell too.

If you contrast that to what happens when you burn a cigarette – which reaches temperatures of about 800°C – then the result is smoke, pollutants, ash, and of course, a lingering smell of smoke.
