Pop N’ Smoke: Flavoured Capsule Cigarettes Guide

Pop N’ Smoke is a flavoured capsule cigarette brand that lets you switch between a plain tobacco draw and a burst of fruit or mint flavour at any point during your smoke. Each cigarette has a small crushable capsule inside the filter. Pinch it, feel it pop, and you get the flavour. Leave it alone and it smokes like a regular cigarette. Available factory-direct from Smokeway, Pop N’ Smoke cigarettes cost $35.99 a carton and come in a 25-cigarette pack – the same format as every native brand we carry.

This guide covers how the capsule works, which flavours are available, what each one tastes like, the price breakdown, and how to order across Canada.

What is Pop N’ Smoke?

Pop N’ Smoke is a flavoured native cigarette brand built around a crushable menthol or fruit capsule inside the filter. The tobacco itself is standard king-size – 84 mm, 25 per pack – but the filter contains a tiny liquid-filled bead that you can activate whenever you want. It’s the same technology you’ll find in capsule cigarettes sold at gas stations, but at a fraction of the retail price because these are made factory-direct on First Nations land and sold to you without a distributor or retail markup in between.

The brand sits in a niche that a plain menthol or a regular Canadian cigarette can’t fill: something with genuine fruit or mint flavour on demand, not baked into every draw. If you like having the option to switch mid-cigarette, Pop N’ Smoke is the only native brand on our shelves that does it.

How the crushable capsule works

The capsule is a small, flexible bead embedded inside the filter material. It holds a concentrated flavour oil – blueberry, grape, watermelon, or orange, depending on the variant. Before you activate it, the cigarette smokes clean. The tobacco flavour comes through without any fruit or mint overlay.

When you want the flavour, pinch the filter firmly between your thumb and forefinger until you feel or hear the bead crack. That ruptures the capsule and releases the oil into the filter. From that point on, every draw pulls air through the flavour and the taste changes noticeably. You can activate it at the start, the middle, or the last third of the cigarette – whenever you want the switch.

A few things worth knowing:

• Each cigarette has one capsule. Once it’s popped, it stays popped for that cigarette.
• The flavour is coolant-forward on Blueberry Mint – the menthol is part of the experience. On Grape and Watermelon the flavour is sweeter and less cooling.
• The capsule doesn’t affect the draw resistance or the burn rate. The cigarette smokes the same way before and after you pop it.
• If you prefer the tobacco alone, you can smoke the entire cigarette without ever pinching the bead.

The name is literal: you pop it and smoke it.

Pop N’ Smoke flavours

There are four flavour variants in the Pop N’ Smoke lineup. Three are in stock right now. Orange is temporarily out of stock – we’ll list it again when it’s available. Here’s the full picture.

Flavour	Capsule notes	Pre-pop taste	Availability
Blueberry Mint	Cool blueberry with a strong menthol hit	Clean tobacco	In stock
Grape	Sweet, ripe grape – less cooling, more fruit-forward	Clean tobacco	In stock
Watermelon	Light, fresh watermelon sweetness	Clean tobacco	In stock
Orange	Citrus-forward, mild sweetness	Clean tobacco	Out of stock

Blueberry Mint

Pop N’ Smoke Blueberry Mint is the most popular variant in the range. The capsule delivers a dual hit: blueberry fruit flavour layered over a noticeable menthol coolant. If you’ve smoked mentholated cigarettes before, you’ll recognise the cooling sensation – the blueberry adds sweetness on top of it. It’s a well-balanced capsule, not candy-sweet, and the menthol is strong enough to feel real.

Grape

Pop N’ Smoke Grape goes in a different direction. The capsule is more fruit-forward and less cooling than Blueberry Mint. Think ripe grape – not grape candy, but something closer to a natural grape sweetness. Good pick if you want flavour without the menthol intensity.

Watermelon

Pop N’ Smoke Watermelon is the lightest of the three in-stock flavours. The capsule gives a fresh, clean watermelon note – mild and slightly sweet, without much cooling. If Blueberry Mint feels too strong, Watermelon is the gentler step down.

Orange (currently out of stock)

Pop N’ Smoke Orange is a citrus variant with mild sweetness. We don’t have a restock date confirmed yet, but check the Pop N’ Smoke brand page – we’ll update it when Orange is back. In the meantime, Blueberry Mint, Grape, and Watermelon are all available to order now.

Taste and smoking experience

Before the capsule is activated, Pop N’ Smoke smokes like any standard native king-size. The tobacco base is straightforward – not heavy, not sharp, consistent from the first puff to the last. There’s no flavour coating on the paper or the tobacco itself, so the pre-pop experience is clean.

Once you pop, the shift is immediate. The first draw after activation has the strongest flavour hit; it softens slightly over the next few puffs and then settles into a steady flavour note for the rest of the cigarette. The capsule doesn’t turn the cigarette into a candy stick – the tobacco is still there underneath – but the fruit or mint is genuine and noticeable.

Burn rate and draw resistance are normal. The filter feels the same as any standard filter before and after popping. There’s no difference in how much smoke you get or how long the cigarette lasts.

Price and format

Pop N’ Smoke costs $35.99 a carton – the same price as Canadian Goose and a dollar or two above the value brands like Putter’s and BB. You’re paying a small premium for the capsule technology. Against what flavoured capsule cigarettes sell for at Canadian gas stations, the gap is significant.

Format	Count	Price	Per cigarette
Pack	25 cigarettes	~$4.50	~$0.18
Carton	200 cigarettes (8 packs)	$35.99	~$0.18
Gas station capsule cigarettes (est.)	25 cigarettes	$15 – $20	~$0.65 – $0.80

Buying a carton is the way to go. A single carton is 200 cigarettes at $0.18 each. Add a second carton and you’re past the free shipping threshold of $139, so the real cost per carton drops further once shipping is zero. For a pack-a-day smoker, two cartons covers roughly two and a half weeks.

You can mix flavours across cartons in a single order. Order Blueberry Mint and Grape in the same checkout to try both without committing to 200 cigarettes of one flavour.

Who Pop N’ Smoke suits

Capsule cigarettes aren’t for every smoker. Here’s an honest breakdown of who tends to reach for them.

Good fit if you:

• Like the option of menthol or fruit flavour without smoking a fully mentholated cigarette all day.
• Currently buy capsule cigarettes from a gas station and want to pay a fraction of the retail price.
• Want something different in rotation alongside a plain native brand.
• Prefer a lighter, fresher smoke at certain times – after a meal, with a cold drink.

Probably not your pick if you:

• Want a straightforward, unflavoured cigarette. The value brands – Putter’s, BB, Nexus – are cheaper and unfluctuated.
• Prefer a strong full-flavour tobacco profile above everything else. The capsule is an addition, not a replacement for tobacco character.

If you’re new to native cigarettes and curious about the full range before committing, our native cigarette brands guide gives you the full lineup with notes on each brand.

Pop N’ Smoke vs other flavoured options

Pop N’ Smoke is the only capsule cigarette brand we stock. It’s the go-to if you want an activatable flavour rather than a cigarette that’s flavoured from start to finish.

The rest of our flavoured cigarettes range includes options where the flavour is built into the tobacco or the filter without a capsule – so every draw is flavoured, with no choice involved. Pop N’ Smoke gives you more control: smoke it plain, pop it when you want the switch, or pop it immediately and smoke the whole cigarette flavoured. That flexibility is what makes it different from a standard menthol or flavoured cigarette.

Conclusion

Pop N’ Smoke is a straightforward product: a well-made native cigarette with one extra feature.

Pop N’ Smoke Cigarettes FAQ

What are Pop N’ Smoke cigarettes?

Pop N’ Smoke is a brand of native cigarettes with a crushable flavour capsule inside the filter. Each cigarette smokes like a regular cigarette until you pinch the capsule and release the flavour. Available in Blueberry Mint, Grape, Watermelon, and Orange (Orange currently out of stock).

How does the Pop N’ Smoke capsule work?

The capsule is a small liquid-filled bead embedded in the filter. Pinch the filter firmly between your thumb and forefinger until you feel or hear a crack. That pops the bead and releases the flavour oil into the filter. From that point forward, every draw pulls through the flavour. You can pop it at any point during the cigarette – start, middle, or near the end.

Can I smoke Pop N’ Smoke without popping the capsule?

Yes. If you don’t pinch the filter, the capsule stays intact and the cigarette smokes plain. The flavour is only released when you pop it. Some smokers pop it immediately; others smoke the first half plain and switch later.

What flavours are available?

Three are in stock right now: Blueberry Mint, Grape, and Watermelon. Orange is temporarily out of stock. Check the Pop N’ Smoke brand page for restock updates.

How much do Pop N’ Smoke cigarettes cost?

$35.99 per carton. Each carton is 8 packs of 25 cigarettes, or 200 cigarettes total. That works out to about $0.18 per cigarette, which is well below what flavoured capsule cigarettes sell for at Canadian gas stations.

How many cigarettes come in a Pop N’ Smoke pack?

25 cigarettes per pack, which is the standard native format. A carton contains 8 packs, so 200 cigarettes per carton.

Does Smokeway ship Pop N’ Smoke across Canada?

Yes. We ship to every province and territory using Canada Post, UPS, and Purolator. Orders over $139 ship free. Two cartons of Pop N’ Smoke comes to $71.98, so you’d need a third or fourth carton – or add another brand – to clear the free shipping line.

What is the difference between Pop N’ Smoke Blueberry Mint and Watermelon?

Blueberry Mint has a dual flavour hit – blueberry fruit and a strong menthol cooling effect. Watermelon is lighter and cooler in flavour, with a fresh, mild sweetness and less cooling. If menthol is too strong for you, Watermelon is the gentler choice.

Are Pop N’ Smoke cigarettes the same as crushball or capsule cigarettes?

Yes. Crushball, crushable capsule, pop filter, and capsule cigarette all describe the same technology: a liquid-filled bead inside the filter that you crack open to release flavour. Pop N’ Smoke uses this format across all its variants.

Are Pop N’ Smoke cigarettes native cigarettes?

Yes. Pop N’ Smoke is manufactured on First Nations land and sold factory-direct, the same as every brand we carry on Smokeway. That’s how the price stays well below retail despite the added capsule feature.
