Fire and Ice is the weirdest flavor RAZ has ever made — and I mean that as a compliment. While every other RAZ flavor builds on fruit, candy, or menthol, Fire and Ice starts with spicy cinnamon and finishes with freezing menthol. No fruit. No sweetness to hide behind. Just heat, then cold, then the lingering question of whether you want another hit. (You do.)
What Does Fire and Ice Actually Taste Like?
Think Big Red chewing gum meets an ice cube. That's the closest real-world comparison, and it's surprisingly accurate.
The inhale hits with warm cinnamon — not baking-spice cinnamon, but the sharp, slightly aggressive Red Hots candy kind. The warmth coats the back of your throat and builds for about half a second. It's not "spicy" in a pepper way; it's spicy in the way cinnamon naturally is — aromatic, dry, with a tingle that makes your taste buds sit up.
The transition is what makes this flavor special. Right at the midpoint of your draw, the menthol starts creeping in. The cinnamon doesn't disappear — it gets overtaken. The warm tingle gives way to a cold wash, and for a brief moment you're tasting both simultaneously. That overlap is the "Fire and Ice" moment, and it's genuinely unlike anything else in the disposable vape market.
The exhale is pure ice. Clean, sharp menthol with just a ghost of cinnamon warmth hiding underneath. The cooling lasts 3–4 seconds after you exhale, longer than most menthol flavors. Your mouth feels genuinely cold.
The Flavor Profile Breakdown
| Attribute | Rating | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sweetness | 3/10 | Barely sweet — just enough to round the cinnamon edges |
| Cooling Intensity | 8/10 | Aggressive menthol on exhale, lingering 3–4 seconds |
| Spice Intensity | 7/10 | Warm cinnamon heat on inhale, noticeable but not harsh |
| Throat Hit | 7/10 | Stronger than most RAZ flavors — the cinnamon adds kick |
| Complexity | 9/10 | Three-phase flavor (heat → overlap → cold) in every puff |
| All-Day Vape? | Depends | Polarizing — rotation flavor for most, all-day for spice lovers |
Regular Mode vs. Boost Mode
Fire and Ice is one of the few RAZ flavors where Boost Mode isn't just "louder" — it's a fundamentally different experience.
| Attribute | Regular (12W) | Boost (24W) |
|---|---|---|
| Cinnamon | Warm, subtle, aromatic | Aggressive — genuine heat on the throat |
| Menthol | Crisp, clean cooling | Blast-cold, almost numbing on lips |
| Overlap Zone | Longer — 1–2 seconds of dual sensation | Shorter — menthol overpowers faster |
| Throat Hit | Moderate — manageable for most | Strong — may be too intense for MTL puffers |
| Best For | Savoring the complexity, daily rotation | Maximum sensation, post-meal palate shock |
My recommendation: Start in Regular Mode. The 12W output lets the cinnamon develop properly before the menthol arrives, and the fire-to-ice transition is more gradual and more interesting. Switch to Boost when you want the flavor to hit like a wall — both sensations come at you simultaneously rather than in sequence. Boost Mode in Fire and Ice is an experience, not a daily driver.
Who Will Love This (and Who Won't)
• You like Fireball whiskey, Big Red gum, or Red Hots candy
• You're bored of fruit-menthol combos and want something actually different
• You enjoy strong menthol but want more depth than straight mint
• You like rotating flavors and want a "reset" flavor between sweet profiles
• You prefer sweet, fruity, or candy flavors
• You don't like cinnamon in any form
• You want a low-key, smooth, background-flavor all-day vape
• You're sensitive to strong throat hits
How Fire and Ice Compares to Other "Bold" RAZ Flavors
Fire and Ice occupies a unique lane. Here's how it stacks against the other non-standard RAZ profiles:
| Flavor | Profile | Sweetness | Cooling | Complexity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fire and Ice | Cinnamon spice + menthol | 3/10 | 8/10 | 9/10 |
| Night Crawler | Sour gummy candy | 7/10 | 2/10 | 7/10 |
| Miami Mint | Clean spearmint + sweetness | 4/10 | 7/10 | 4/10 |
| Cactus Jack | Prickly pear cactus | 5/10 | 3/10 | 6/10 |
| Georgia Peach | Sweet stone fruit | 8/10 | 0/10 | 3/10 |
Fire and Ice is the least sweet, most complex, and second-most cooling flavor in the lineup. The only flavor that rivals its intensity is Miami Mint — but Miami Mint is a one-note mint experience. Fire and Ice gives you a narrative arc in every puff.
Pairing and Rotation Tips
Because Fire and Ice is so distinct, it works exceptionally well in a rotation strategy:
Palate cleanser role: Vape Fire and Ice between sweeter flavors (Night Crawler, Triple Berry, Georgia Peach) to reset your taste buds. The cinnamon-menthol combination cuts through sweetener buildup better than straight menthol flavors.
Post-meal flavor: The warming cinnamon + cooling menthol combination works the same way an after-dinner mint does — it cleanses and refreshes. Fire and Ice is one of the few vape flavors that actually feels appropriate after eating.
Best two-device rotation: Pair Fire and Ice with Blue Razz Ice or Watermelon Ice. The contrast between the spicy profile and a classic fruit-ice creates enough variety to avoid flavor fatigue for weeks.
Device Availability
Fire and Ice is currently exclusive to the RAZ LTX 25000 (DC25000). It is not available on the TN9000, RYL 35K, RX 50K, or VUE 50K. The LTX's dual-mode system (Regular 12W / Boost 24W) is actually ideal for this flavor — the wide wattage range lets you experience both the subtle and aggressive versions of the cinnamon-menthol profile.
