The IQOS TEREA tobacco sticks are the successors of the HEETS, consisting of real tobacco with natural nicotine and various flavors for different tastes.
They are vaporized with the IQOS ILUMA tobacco heater .
The ILUMA heaters have an internal heating element that heats the tobacco stick by induction but does not burn it. This creates tobacco vapour, which releases the typical tobacco taste and nicotine.
THE DIFFERENT TEREA VARIETIES
TEREA sticks come in two main flavors: menthol or tobacco. The intensity of the aromas also varies between the different varieties. TEREA Sticks are available in stick or packet format. Here’s what you should know about the different flavors.

Accessories for IQOS TEREA tobacco sticks
The new stick trays made of plastic or ceramic replace the classic ashtray for disposing of used TEREA tobacco sticks.
Various interchangeable accessories are also available for the IQOS ILUMA tobacco heater, such as covers, cases and stylish ring sets.
The science behind heating TEREA tobacco sticks
The technology for the innovative heating of the sticks was developed in Switzerland and Singapore. In the Swiss research center of Lake Neuchâtel , over 400 scientists have perfected the heating of IQOS TEREA with IQOS ILUMA devices.
Thanks to the induction technology of the IQOS ILUMA tobacco heater, the TEREA tobacco sticks are only heated to the point that is absolutely necessary for the production of tobacco vapour. There is absolutely no combustion and no smoke is produced.
Difference between TEREA tobacco sticks and e-cigarettes
Tobacco sticks and tobacco heaters are not e-cigarettes . With e-cigarettes, a liquid is vaporized, with tobacco sticks, real tobacco is vaporized. Therefore, the taste experience of a tobacco stick is closer to that of a cigarette.
Market research by Philip Morris International has shown that the majority of smokers who have switched to tobacco sticks do not return to the classic cigarette because of this similar taste.

It doesn’t matter whether you prefer fruity, fresh menthol aromas, whether you’re used to mild or more intensely tart tobacco notes, you’re sure to find a flavor that appeals to you among the various TEREA sticks.
