What is heated tobacco?

Heated tobacco is an alternative to smoking. It's real tobacco, just heated instead of burnt. That's why heated tobacco doesn't produce smoke, cigarette smoke smell or ash. Instead it delivers real tobacco taste and satisfaction.
How does IQOS heated tobacco work?
IQOS heated tobacco devices use advanced technology to heat specially designed tobacco sticks at a lower temperature than cigarettes, avoiding combustion. Since the tobacco doesn’t burn, IQOS releases 95% less harmful chemicals* than cigarettes.
