Green Smoke Review
E-cigarettes can only serve as a replacement to tobacco cigarettes if they accurately emulate the smoking experience. Without the tip glowing on inhalation and a substantial amount of vapor, you’ll feel like you’re smoking a toy – a nicotine-dispensing novelty that could never convince you to ditch the tar-filled alternative. Green Smoke is one of the most respected e-cigarette producers around the world, and the Pro Kit offers a long and short battery, two packs of cartomizers, a USB charger (with car and mains adapters) and a USB cigarette. But does it really live up to the hype?
Pros:
- Rich flavors
- Loads of vapor
- Triple-sealed cartridges
- New longer lasting cartridges
- Intuitive, sturdy design
- First to introduce a two-piece cartomizer
- Ample battery life
- Plenty of options for nicotine levels
- Outstanding customer service
Cons:
- Could benefit from more flavor options
Packaging & Design
The box for the Pro Kit is stylish, sleek and proudly green, with a magnetic closing clasp and a two tier interior. It’s sturdy, so there’s no worry of any of your vital pieces of equipment being damaged in transit or storage. The top tier cradles the long and short batteries, and stores the (frankly, rarely if ever needed) instruction manual. In the box’s underbelly, you’ll find the USB charger, which is easy to use (just screw the battery in and plug it in) and fits comfortably into the plug and car adapters. The USB cigarette has a wire extending from the tip, which is unusual at first glance but it’s soon forgotten when your main batteries are charging and it comes to using it.
The e-cigarette itself is expertly designed, with simple screw-on cartridges and a thin golden band separating it from the battery. It’s lightweight for an e-cigarette, and it doesn’t take long to get used to the difference from an ordinary tobacco cigarette. The tip is green, and glows red on inhalation. One of the most pleasing aspects of taking a puff on the Green Smoke cigarette is how the tip gradually lights up and fades out before and afterwards. A blinking light when you inhale tells you that the battery needs a charge.
Nicotine Levels
Green Smoke cartridges are available in five different strengths. The most nicotine-heavy option has a concentration of 2.4 percent (Strong), going down to 1.8 percent (Full), 1.2 percent (Light), 0.6 percent (Ultra-Light) and Zero, which is self-explanatory. After using the Full cartridges for the length of time I’d usually smoke an ordinary cigarette, I had my first nicotine rush since my first cigarette. The Light cartridges will be plenty for most smokers, and there are ample options for cutting down or for the heaviest nicotine addicts.
Flavors & Vapor
This is the area of the e-cigarette which really separates Green Smoke from the pack. The volume of vapor is genuinely comparable to a real cigarette, and when combined with the realistic shape and glowing tip, it accurately replicates smoking. Most e-cigarettes suggest taking a couple of short introductory puffs before the main one to produce more vapor, but with the Green Smoke e-cig this isn’t necessary.
The flavors are also well-crafted and arguably amongst the best in the industry. There are three varieties of tobacco flavor, Absolute Tobacco, Tobacco Gold and Red Label Tobacco (which is modeled after Marlboro Red), as well as the creatively named Mocha Mist, Menthol Ice, Vanilla Dreams and Smooth Chocolate. Although the Red Label packs more of a punch, the Gold has a tint of sweetness and the Absolute is much smoother. The Smooth Chocolate is the crowning achievement, though, being mellow but brought to life with subtle hints of cocoa. Read the full Green Smoke cartidges review.
Battery
The battery life on the Green Smoke cigarettes is great, and it’ll last you around a day without requiring re-charging. The shorter battery lasts for around 200 puffs, and the longer one stretches this to around 275. As mentioned earlier there is a plug-in USB e-cig you can use even if your main ones are charging. You never need to go without the e-cigarette.
Overall
Green Smoke has produced an astounding e-cigarette, one that genuinely reproduces the smoking experience minus the concoction of chemicals and the off-putting smell. There isn’t really any cause for complaint – perhaps a few more flavors would be appreciated, but that’s mainly because the ones they’ve produced are excellent on the whole and it’d be great to see what else they could do.
Green Smoke Review Breakdown

This is by far my favorite brand! I haven’t smoked a single cancer stick ever since I picked up one of these greens. I got a kit for my wife and she loves it even more than I do. If you’re serious about quitting Green Smoke is the way to go!
I would love to win this cause i want to live longer for my kids. I’ve tried to give up smoking so many times over the years that I’ve gained weight & worked over the years to try & loose it. Now I’ve put on weight cause I’m not smoking as much & they are getting too expensive. If I win this Green Smoker it would make my day, since I haven’t won really anything this big in a long time. Thank you for listening.
I really like the Green Smoke battery life and feel it’s the best puff for the purchase.
Had this about a year. best e-cig hands down!!
Green Smoke e cigs are really good quality. It looks like they spent a lot of time making the design really appealing to smokers who are looking for a “greener” alternative. Prices on the cartomizers are a bit high, but the flavors are really rich.
Today marks the 4th month of my smoke-free journey. I want to thank the folks at Green Smoke for coming up with a fantastic alternative to help smokers like me quit.
I’d recommend GS to anyone who’s trying to cut down on smoking or quit. I was really skeptical about ecigs but after trying greensmoke i started to really enjoy them. Once in a while, I light up a cigarette but that’s way better than the 10 cigarettes/day routine I was addicted to.
Awesome products, friendly customer service, fast shipping. Love my Green Smoke.
The battery is extremely powerful for its size and very responsive. With very little effort, I get loads of smoke. I also like how the tip of the batter lights green, it has a positive psychological impact on me which keeps me away from my cigarettes… Anyone else feel this way?
AMAZING flavors! Menthol is my favorite. It beats any other menthol flavor I’ve tried so far. Really impressive.
Incredibly rich flavors and very strong throat hit. Battery is powerful and it lasted me for about 250-300 puffs (with the long battery).
Just received my kit, customer service was excellent and shipping was reasonable considering the holidays. Can’t wait to start a smoke-free year!
Vapor production: 5/5 – strong, smooth
Cost/Value: 5/5 – slightly higher priced than some other brands, but well worth it
Flavor: 5/5 – this is the best part about Green Smoke. Rich and tasty flavors.
Customer service: 5/5 – never had an issue. Always helpful.
Overall: 5/5
As someone who has been smoking for the last 15 years, I’m proud to say that Green Smoke is the best substitute I’ve found thus far. I tried nicotine gums, patches, therapy, meditation, stress management,….etc. None of them worked. E-cigarettes are the real key to my success.
Happy puffing!
My favorite thing about GS is their cartridges, specifically the Menthol Ice flavor. It’s so refreshing and flavorful that I can’t resist puffing on it. I charged my batter 4 times over the past 24 hours, that’s how much I have been using my GS. Get your hands on one of these and you’ll love them.
I bought a kit two months ago and I cannot express how happy I am with these products. I have stopped cigarettes completely and I’m walking towards a healthier lifestyle.
Customer service is also very nice. They helped me through a technical difficulty I was experiencing with my account. Very fast and responsive. I’m very pleased I found Green Smoke.
Many people are still skeptical about electronic cigarettes. Well let me tell you that electronic cigarettes are by far the least painful way of quitting smoking. I have been a smoker since 2003 and I quit in 2010. When I heard of Green Smoke, I decided to take a leap of faith and try their products. It turns out, they’re not all that bad. I’m now 3 years smoke-free and live a healthier lifestyle than I ever did.
Best flavors anywhere. The cartridges smell fresh and come packed with e-liquid which makes them last until the very last puff. I love everything about them from the battery, cartridges, to accessories and design of the kit. Very good product.
I just finished puffing on Green Smoke for the first time and I’m so thrilled with the quality of their e-cigs that I wanted to share my experience right away. I ordered the PRO KIT. At first I thought it was a little expensive but once it arrived I realized how much time they have invested in designing, packaging the kits. Inside the kit, there’s almost everything I could ask for. I even got a membership card for public vaping. Really satisfied with these guys and am looking forward to placing my next order.
YES, YES, YES to Green Smoke! Let’s vote for them to become the best rated e-cigarette of 2012…
Green Smoke is truly an outstanding company. Last week, when I received my monthly cartridge delivery, I was surprised to find a NEW BATTERY in the package!!! Things like this makes me believe that Green Smoke really cares about its customers. And that’s why they’re my favorite.
Green Smoke I love you – it’s only been 3 days since my last cigarette and I haven’t missed them a bit. Thank you thank you thank you…you’ve already saved me $28.55 – roll on the good times : ) – oh & my colleagues at work love<3 you too. All the best to the people at green smoke.
THE BEST ECIG OUT THERE!!!!!!
LOVE GREEN SMOKE! WISH THEY COULD SEND THEIR FLAVOR CARTOMIZERS TO CALIFORNIA. I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO TRY THEIR MOCHA MIST FOREVER. DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CAN BUY THEIR FLAVORS IN CALIFORNIA?
THANKS.
I’m using green smoke for almost nine months now and I can’t stop loving them. Last week I made a video on how much I love my green smoke. I really hope that people can understand why. I’ve been trying to promote their products to my friends ever since I became a customer. Hope to see them around for many years!
A++++ can’t live without it.
My kit didn’t produce as much as vapor as I wanted so I had to return the product. But once I got my replacement I’m totally happy with the smoke volume. All I care about is smoke volume and flavor richness. Green Smoke has both of them and that’s why i love them.
Pros:
great company
super rich flavors
nice smoke volume
long battery life
A+ customer service
Cons:
expensive

I love Green Smoke! I switched over 5 brands before I tried Green Smoke and I’m so happy with them that I’m never trying another brand. It’s not just about their amazing products, it’s about their customer experience. I can’t say that i’ve never had a problem with my order but I can definitely say that every time there was an issue they stood by me until issue was resolved. To me customer service is extremely important.
Thank you to all the folks at Green Smoke!
