Lyo Zesty Pear

About Lyo Zesty Pear

Lyo Zesty Pear is a zero-tobacco nicotine stick from the fruit-led half of the Lyo range and its most flavour-intense variant. Instead of tobacco the rod holds a flavour-neutral plant substrate processed from star anise, carrying nicotine and aroma, with an Aroma Boost click capsule set in the filter. It followed the menthol launch pair, arriving alongside Winter Apple.

What to expect

Early draws stay mild and lightly cool while the base does the work. Click the capsule and the pear steps forward in full — bright, juicy and sweet, with a rich fruity aftertaste that carries between draws — and the cooling settles in behind it rather than over it. Suited to Ploom users who want fruit to lead the session and want to choose the moment it does.

How Lyo Zesty Pear compares to other variants

Zesty Pear is the loudest fruit in the range. Against Lyo Winter Apple it is bolder and sharper — a juicy, clearly drawn pear, where Winter Apple stays mellower and rounder on sweet orchard apple with a softer cooling layer underneath. Against Lyo Wild Berry the difference is the shape of the session: here the click brings the pear forward onto a mild base, while Wild Berry’s click deepens berries the draw already carries. Lyo Arctic Mint sits on another axis entirely, the variant where cooling leads instead of fruit. Pick Zesty Pear for the most intense fruit in the range; pick Winter Apple for a gentler, sweeter apple, Wild Berry if berries should lead from the first draw, and Arctic Mint if you want the cold in front.

Frequently asked questions

Which devices is Lyo Zesty Pear compatible with?

Lyo Zesty Pear is built for the Ploom platform: Ploom AURA, Ploom X Advanced and Ploom X, which share the same HeatFlow chamber heating. The sticks do not work in IQOS, glo, lil or Pulze devices, which heat on a different principle and will not run this stick correctly.

How does Lyo Zesty Pear taste compared to Lyo Winter Apple?

Zesty Pear is bolder and sharper — a juicy, clearly defined pear — where Lyo Winter Apple stays mellower and rounder on sweet orchard apple with a softer cooling layer. Pick Zesty Pear for the most intense fruit in the range; pick Winter Apple for a gentler, sweeter apple.

Do Lyo Zesty Pear sticks contain tobacco or nicotine?

There is no tobacco in the stick at all — the rod is a processed star-anise plant substrate that carries nicotine and aroma in place of tobacco. Nicotine is present, at roughly 0.5 to 0.6 mg per stick in the released aerosol according to retailer specifications. Removing the tobacco does not remove the nicotine, and nicotine is addictive.
