“Mint isn’t just one flavor. Wintergreen is the creamy, herbal cousin. It’s my go-to when Miami Mint feels too plain.”
The Hardware: LTX 25000 Performance
Wintergreen is a staple flavor for the RAZ LTX 25000 (DC25000). Why does the hardware matter for a mint flavor? Because Wintergreen contains complex aromatic compounds (methyl salicylate) that need consistent heat to taste “creamy” rather than “chemical.”
The LTX’s Boost Mode (24W) is the secret weapon here. It warms up the vapor, bringing out the sweet, root-beer-like bottom notes that lesser devices miss completely.

Sensory Analysis: The “Creamy” Ice
Wintergreen is unique because it tricks your brain. It feels cold and hot at the same time.
The Inhale: Sweet Herb
The first hit is surprisingly sweet. It has that distinct, earthy sweetness found in birch beer or classic pink wintergreen lozenges. It’s smooth, round, and has zero harshness.
The Exhale: The Freeze
As you exhale, the sweetness evaporates, leaving a sharp, icy trail in your throat. This is the “Winter” kicking in. It cleanses the palate instantly, making it an excellent flavor for chain vaping.
Wintergreen Wars
Not many brands do Wintergreen well. Most just repackage their Spearmint. Here is how RAZ holds up.
- 🆚 Geek Bar Pulse (Miami Mint)
Geek Bar doesn’t really have a dedicated Wintergreen widely available. Their Miami Mint is sweeter and fruitier. RAZ Wintergreen is more herbal and authentic to the plant extract profile. - 🆚 Lost Mary (Winter Edition)
Lost Mary’s winter flavors tend to be pure menthol. RAZ Wintergreen focuses on the flavor of the wintergreen leaf, not just the cooling sensation. It has more body and character.
Who is this for?
RAZ Wintergreen is the perfect choice for:
- Ex-Smokers/Dippers: If you used wintergreen pouches, this is the exact flavor profile you are missing.
- Palate Cleansing: Tired of sticky fruit flavors? This resets your taste buds.
- All-Day Vaping: It’s sweet enough to be interesting, but fresh enough to never get old.
