TEREA Green vs Turquoise vs Blue: Menthol Comparison
TEREA Green, Turquoise and Blue all combine tobacco with cooling or mint-related notes, but their official UK profiles are distinct. Green is balanced menthol with green mint. Turquoise is crisp menthol with zesty notes. Blue is the deepest-cooling option of the three and adds peppermint. These descriptions and ratings are market-specific, so confirm the regional edition before buying.
Quick comparison
| Variant | Official UK profile | IQOS UK intensity | Body | Aroma | Best match by description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Green | Lightly toasted tobacco, balanced menthol, green mint | 2/5 | 3/5 | 2/5 | Balanced mint and cooling |
| Turquoise | Lightly toasted tobacco, crisp menthol, zesty notes | 2/5 | 2/5 | 1/5 | Lighter body and citrus-like zest |
| Blue | Mellow tobacco, deep menthol, peppermint | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 | Deepest cooling and fuller body of the three |
The numbers above are the manufacturer’s flavor scale for its UK guide. They are not nicotine measurements or health ratings.
TEREA Green
Green is described as lightly toasted tobacco with balanced menthol cooling and green minty aroma notes. On the UK scale, it sits between Turquoise and Blue in body while sharing the lowest listed intensity with Turquoise.
Green is the most direct fit for an adult user looking for a mint-centered description without the deep cooling assigned to Blue or the zesty direction assigned to Turquoise.
Check the current pack region on TEREA Green.
TEREA Turquoise
Turquoise combines lightly toasted tobacco with crisp menthol cooling and zesty aroma notes. It has the lowest manufacturer-listed body and aroma of the three in the current UK guide.
That does not mean it contains less nicotine or carries less risk. It describes sensory positioning only. Turquoise is the clearest comparison point for someone choosing a lighter-bodied, zesty profile.
Check TEREA Turquoise for current inventory and regional labeling.
TEREA Blue
Blue is described with mellow tobacco, deep menthol cooling and peppermint aroma notes. The current UK guide gives it the highest listed intensity and body among these three, while its aroma score matches Green.
Blue is therefore the starting point for a deeper-cooling, peppermint-led description. Some other official country catalogs add slightly different aroma wording, which is another reason not to assume that all regional editions are identical.

How to choose
- Choose Green if “balanced menthol” and green mint are the most appealing descriptors.
- Choose Turquoise if you want crisp cooling with a zesty direction and the lightest listed body in this comparison.
- Choose Blue if you want the deepest manufacturer-described cooling and peppermint.
This framework is more reliable than declaring one option universally “best.” Flavor perception is subjective, while regional portfolios and labels can change.
Regional availability matters
Official IQOS information says countries commercialize variants based on local regulations. For example, IQOS UK notes that some menthol or aromatic TEREA variants are unavailable in Northern Ireland or EU markets under characterizing-flavor restrictions. A product seen in one country’s official catalog may therefore not be an official local retail option in another.
CruseStick sells imported regional packs as an independent retailer. The product page should identify what is offered; verify it before checkout. Use TEREA flavors by region for the broader catalog and TEREA menthol flavors guide for a wider menthol overview.
Compatibility and product warning
Green, Turquoise and Blue are TEREA sticks for compatible IQOS ILUMA devices. They contain tobacco and nicotine; nicotine is addictive. They also contain a metal heating element and should not be taken apart or swallowed. Do not use TEREA with older blade-based IQOS devices.
