Things to like- There is something in the mystery blend that is indeed relaxing. It is not overwhelming or long term and it is not like weed or nicotine, but there is definitely an effect that can be felt. The flavor beads are different flavors of mint and such. I have tasted a green mint but also an orange mint (orange in color and flavor) as well as some type of nice rose flavor, so far. I don't know if these are real oils but as a person who likes essential oils and also food flavoring and diffuser scents, I know of the stark differences in quality and whether or not any of those things are edible, and these do seem like nice unoffensive "probably natural" flavors for consumption although I have no idea what the tiny capsules are made of. Don't be an over-curious zealot like myself and pop one in your eye. I'm only smart when it comes to some things. I think the flavor beads are a nice touch and it is due to the fact that we like to do things with our hands and these smokes are about little indulgences like that. These are for coffee and tea and chatting etc... I want to make these chocolate flavored so bad. They do not have a bad flavor at all, but the flavor is very mild. It leaves a room smelling ever-so-faintly campy but not really in a bad way. Another thing that is likable about them is that they smoke well. As others have stated, they smoke fast, they smoke light, they burn smooth. It's actually a very nice herbal blend and I have tried a few in all my years of smoking various things and my separation from conventional cigarettes, which has been a very positive thing. I shouldn't have started smoking in the first place, but I did very long ago and I have gone years without smoking at times, only to succumb to some stressful thing and then pick up some tobacco product of some sort when i couldn't care less. It can be easy for years then something reaches down into your primordial nerves and reminds you that it is indeed an ongoing struggle. I do think these also would have been helpful when I first quit smoking almost two decades ago and went years with touching any tobacco... which is where I gained familiarity with some rather harsh and disgusting herbal blends in an effort to find a temporary placebo. These definitely would have been better. They are not cheap but they are pretty fancy. I really like how they are rolled and with the gold lined filters, it has a very fancy, indulgent feel and it is because of this i am not overly anxious about what is inside of them. I know that sounds stupid and it is not unreasonable to wonder what they contain but perhaps I am more trusting of items with chinese writing on them that i can't read than others are. I just feel like care was put into the idea from another smoker attempting to address their habit. They burn fast... but it is in that satisfying and indulgent way that we smokers try to mobilize the act of smoking, on our feet, in our car, very quickly at a table after a meal, etc... that makes me think it was a well thought out blend and why it doesn't make me cough or feel like my lungs are now full of gunk. Smooth and fast. Some of the mint flavors are a tad too minty for my sensitive, most likely damaged lungs but I steered away from menthol when I smoked, but I still like to mess around with the flavors. They are not that strong, not as strong as a menthol cigarette and some of them are really nice and don't really come off like menthol. I think there's something that could appeal to most among those flavors. The green ones are probably for the Kool smokers. I could be wrong about this product but I like them. and I could be so wrong that i am never able to come back and correct this review but I'm sure word will spread by other means so keep your ear out, eyes open, maybe ask some other daring adults... I don't know but I am going to go look for chocolate flavored ones and try to resist the idea of adding flavored nicotine drops for a "clean but truly satisfying smoke" because these are just enough fun to be trouble for me to alternate tip-toeing and dancing around.

i bought these only because in the reviews i saw they came with crush balls for the cigarettes these without them taste horrible but i didnt receive any and theyre also lowered the quality of the cigarettes they look very different than they used to

3.0 out of 5 stars If you like clove cigarettes...

I gave it three stars because they're a bit on the harsh side. Flavor isn't horrible if you actually like clove cigarettes. I do not. I can't stand clove cigarettes and I wish the description of these would have been a lot more clear. They taste like clove and menthol. They say it's mint, but that's the best idea I can give you for what this reminds me of. I'm kind of bummed that I got two packs, because I don't even want to finish the first pack.Yes, they're a tad shorter than a regular standard short cigarette (but just as fat as a regular cig)... but they really don't need to be a full cigarette length. Because these burn slower - you aren't going to suck these down to the butt the same way you would a fast-burning, addictive cigarette.They smell funky after burning. Like you set your dried grass (from your yard) on fire. You don't really notice it till after you're done smoking it.I absolutely purchased these as a smoking cessation tool. I absolutely want to stop smoking cigarettes and I didn't even know that this was an option. For me the hardest part about smoking is more routine than the actual addiction. I am used to lighting up a cigarette whenever I do certain things. Having these when I get that urge to smoke has been absolutely beneficial. But with cigarettes I would find myself chain smoking. So I already see a different switching to these because I'm not doing that. And I absolutely think that these will be easy to kick once I get over that nicotine withdrawal. I'm already seeing a huge difference in my smoking behavior in the 1st day.However, do not be deceived that they advertise these as a "healthier" option. If you were to research tea cigarettes (or non-nicotine), you will find that they can be just as bad for you. And in some ways even worse. For example: these non-nicotine, tea leaf cigarettes actually produce more carbon monoxide as they burn. So there might be an unhealthy reason why people claim to feel a relaxing sensation when smoking these kind of cigarettes. Just keep that in mind.I don't like this particular brand because of the clove taste enough that I tried a different brand. I received those in the mail today and tried them and they are much better for my needs and preferences. So I will not be getting this brand again. And quite honestly I hope that I don't have to buy any more after the next brand anyways because I'm hoping the nicotine addiction will be gone by then and I won't need to feel like I have to light up. God willing. May all who are struggling with this be healed 🙏.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looks elegant, they are not harsh and they smell sweet in the pack

Love that these are natural. Not bad tasting, but you're burning it, so it's not going to taste like ice cream. Smells sweet and nice in the package and not as harsh as a cigarette. Burns quickly, it's 1/3 filter. After lighting, it does become bitter but it's 60-70% less harsh than a cigarette. You can taste the mint and rose, it's not strong, it's refreshing. That's coming from an herb enthusiast though, I only have a memory of a real cigarette and never went back after one puff 😂.I use these for my filming props, they look good if you want to shoot a dramatic older style film and your character has a signature habit like smoking. I also use them around my family who smokes, I pretend I'm a smoker so they'll try and if they like it helps cut down on their consumption with something SLIGHTLY healthier. It's positive peer pressure 😂 I'm not much of a smoker anymore so 1 pack is good for me.
