Geek Bar has launched its first-ever range of shisha vapes, widely available across the UK.
The move comes on the back of the growing popularity of shisha in the country over recent years.
The Geek Bar shisha vape includes 575 puffs and uses the same battery technology as previous Geek Bar products. The range, which comes with 2ml e-liquid capacity and contains 20mg/ml nicotine, is available in several flavours including Watermelon Berries Shisha, Hawaii Sunshine Shisha, Pineapple Guava Shisha, Mixed Fruit with Rose Shisha, and Strawberry Kiwi Shisha.
The fruit-flavoured range is designed to help more adult smokers quit conventional cigarettes. Research by Nicotine & Tobacco Research last year highlighted that vaping ‘sweet’ flavours associated with fruits were more likely to help an adult smoker give up their habit than use of tobacco flavoured e-liquids.
Allen Yang, Chief Executive at Geek Bar, said: “Shisha pipes have become increasingly popular in the UK, and we wanted to give those who smoke them a safer option just like we do for conventional cigarette users with a range of disposable vape products which have been a phenomenal success in the UK.”
The new shisha range uses Geek Bar’s new packaging which allows both retailers and consumers to check the authenticity of the product from a compliance perspective as well as make it clear that the product is for sale to only over 18s.
