In which countries are menthol cigarettes banned?

Can I smoke menthol cigarettes after the EU menthol ban came into force?

-
Does the EU menthol ban only cover menthol cigarettes and roll-your-own tobacco?

How to remove the stuck tobacco from the IQOS Holder?
If the tobacco plug is stuck in your cap, remove by gently tapping the cap on a hard surface to extract the tobacco plug, or by using a cleaning pin.
If you use the pin, simply push the rod outward from the bottom part of the cap.
To prevent this issue, please make sure to always lift up the cap before extracting the used tobacco stick. -
Do tobacco sticks contain nicotine?
Yes, tobacco sticks contain nicotine, which is addictive.
Nicotine is naturally present in the tobacco used in. It is released in the vapor that is generated during the IQOS usage. -
Why do tobacco sticks taste different from that of the cigarettes?
The taste of tobacco sticks is different from that of cigarettes because tobacco is heated rather than burned.
By heating the tobacco, the true taste of the tobacco is released.
tobacco sticks are made from a specially selected blend of tobacco in order to provide tobacco taste and satisfaction that replicates as much as possible what adult smokers expect. -
Why are tobacco sticks shorter than cigarettes?
The tobacco sticks are designed specifically for the IQOS devices. They have an optimal length, diameter and design for the IQOS Holder.
Tobacco sticks and nicotine pods used with IQOS contain nicotine, which is addictive. Therefore using IQOS is not risk free. The best choice for consumers concerned about their health is to quit tobacco and nicotine use altogether.
