HayatiThe Fresh Mint (Green) Hayati Liora Prefilled Vape Pods by Hayati in Fresh Mint (Green) at 10mg and 20mg. Free UK delivery over £20, same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 4pm.
The Hayati Liora Prefilled Vape Pods in Fresh Mint (Green) are replacement pods for the Hayati Liora pod device. Each pod arrives sealed and already filled with e-liquid, so there is no bottle to open, no coil to build, and no measuring involved. You push the pod into the device, give the coil a moment to wet, and vape. When the pod runs dry, you take it out, fit a fresh one, and carry on with the same battery and body.
This listing covers the Fresh Mint flavour, identified by the green colour coding on the pack. Mint is the cleanest flavour category for people moving away from cigarettes who do not want sweetness or fruit, and it is also a steady favourite with existing vapers who want something that does not tire the palate over a long day. The Liora pods sit in the closed-pod category: the pod is the consumable, the device is the reusable part, and the two are matched so that airflow, coil resistance and battery output work together rather than against each other.
The UK context matters here. Since the ban on single-use vapes came into force on 1 June 2025, a rechargeable device with replaceable pods has become the straightforward legal route for anyone who liked the pick-up-and-go habit of a disposable. A pod system keeps that convenience while producing far less waste per puff, because only the pod is replaced and the battery is used again and again. UK rules also cap nicotine in e-liquid at 20mg/ml and limit pods and tanks to 2ml, and those two limits shape the specifications you will see across the whole category.
What you get with this listing:
A note on honesty before we go further. Figures such as puff count and battery capacity vary between batches and are quoted by manufacturers under controlled test conditions. Throughout this page we give realistic ranges rather than a single headline number, and we point out where you should check the printed pack information instead of relying on any web page, ours included. These products are for adults aged 18 and over and are intended for people who already smoke or vape.
Pod systems of this style are normally rated by the manufacturer in puffs, and for a 2ml prefilled pod the quoted figure usually lands somewhere in the region of 500 to 700 puffs at 20mg/ml. Treat that as an estimate rather than a promise. A puff in a lab is a short, even draw of about three seconds. A puff in real life is whatever you happen to do on the walk to the station, and that varies enormously from person to person.
What actually determines how long a pod lasts:
As a rule of thumb, a light user taking perhaps 150 puffs a day can expect a pod to last three to five days. A moderate user at 300 to 400 puffs a day will get through one in a day and a half to two days. Heavy users who vape all day should plan on a pod roughly every day and keep a spare in a coat pocket or bag.
On the throat, a 20mg/ml nicotine salt liquid in a pod device is smoother than the same strength of older freebase liquid, which is why salts became the standard for this category. The hit is present but rounded, and it is designed to satisfy a smoker without the harshness that put many people off earlier devices. If you find the hit stronger than expected, that is a signal to step down a strength rather than to draw more gently.
Consistency from first puff to last is the other half of performance. A well-made prefilled pod should taste much the same at the start as in the final quarter. If the flavour fades sharply or the vapour thins out well before the liquid window looks empty, that is more often a sign of heavy chain vaping than a faulty pod, and the troubleshooting section further down explains how to tell the difference.
Fresh Mint is a cool, clean mint profile rather than a candy one. The colour on the pack is green, and the taste follows the colour: think of a sharp, crisp mint leaf with a cooling finish, not a sweet toothpaste or chewing gum. The first impression on the inhale is a light cooling sensation across the tongue, and the exhale carries the mint through the nose, leaving a refreshed feeling in the mouth rather than a lingering sweetness.
That clean character is the reason mint is so often chosen by people leaving cigarettes behind. Tobacco flavours can feel like a reminder of the habit, and sweet or fruit flavours can be cloying after a few hours. Mint sits in the middle: it is clearly different from tobacco, but it does not coat the mouth. Many vapers keep a mint pod as their daytime flavour precisely because it does not become tiring.
What to expect, honestly:
A practical tip: your sense of taste is affected by what you have just eaten or drunk. Strong coffee, spicy food and even a toothpaste mint can make a mint pod seem flatter or sharper than it really is. If a fresh pod tastes odd, rinse your mouth with water, wait a few minutes, and try again before drawing conclusions.
Flavour fatigue is real with any single flavour, and some people alternate between two profiles to keep things fresh. If you find that a flavour you enjoyed at first starts to taste muted after a week or two, the cause is usually your palate adapting rather than the pod changing. Swapping to a different flavour for a day often resets it. We list the other Hayati Liora flavours on the site so you can build a small rotation.
A prefilled pod is a small assembly with several jobs: it stores the e-liquid, houses the coil, forms the mouthpiece, and makes electrical contact with the device. The Liora pods are built as a single sealed unit, with the liquid reservoir visible through a transparent or semi-transparent window so you can see the level at a glance. The mouthpiece is shaped for a comfortable lip fit, and the pod clicks into the device with a firm magnetic or friction-fit connection depending on the generation of the kit.
Points worth checking when your pods arrive:
Build quality in this price band is a trade-off. These are mass-produced consumable parts, so tolerance on the plastic is good rather than precision-machined, and the pods are designed to be used and replaced, not kept for years. That said, a well-seated pod should not wobble or rattle in the device, and it should not leak under normal use. A modest amount of condensation around the mouthpiece is normal, but liquid dripping from the pod base is not.
Leak resistance depends partly on how you store the pods. Keep them upright, at room temperature, away from direct sun and away from hot surfaces such as a car dashboard. Heat expands both the air and the liquid inside the reservoir, which is the most common reason a pod that was fine on Monday is weeping by Friday. A pod that has travelled in a pocket close to the body is usually fine, but a bag in a hot car is not a good place for it.
The green colour coding on the Fresh Mint pack is more than decoration. It lets you tell flavours apart at a glance if you keep several variants, which helps avoid fitting the wrong flavour in the middle of a busy day.
The pods themselves contain no battery. Power comes from the Liora device, and pod devices in this class generally carry a rechargeable lithium-ion cell somewhere in the 400 to 800 mAh range. Check the specification on the device listing or the box for the exact figure, because it varies between kit generations. What matters in practice is how that capacity matches the pod: a battery in this range is typically sized to run through one or two prefilled pods before needing a top-up.
Charging is done through a USB-C port on most current pod kits, which means any common phone charger or laptop port will do. A few sensible habits will keep the cell healthy for longer:
Most devices of this type show charge status with an LED. A steady light usually means charging in progress, and the light changing colour or switching off signals a full cell. If your kit uses a different pattern, the instruction leaflet in the box is the authority. A full charge from flat commonly takes somewhere between 30 and 90 minutes depending on battery size and charger output.
Many pod devices also include a puff-activated sensor, meaning there is no button to press, and a short-circuit or low-battery protection that cuts power if something is wrong. If the device vibrates, blinks rapidly or simply refuses to fire, this is the protection doing its job, and the troubleshooting section covers the usual causes.
Battery life is helpfully independent of pods, which is a quiet advantage of this format. You are not throwing away a lithium cell every few days, as you would with a single-use product. A properly cared-for rechargeable pod device should carry on for hundreds of charge cycles, and when it eventually reaches the end of its life it can be taken to a battery or electrical recycling point rather than the household bin.
Inside each prefilled pod is a coil, and in this category that is typically a mesh coil. A mesh coil replaces the traditional wire wound around a cotton wick with a thin, perforated metal sheet that is rolled into a cylinder. Cotton is held against the mesh, and the e-liquid is drawn through the cotton to the mesh surface where it is heated into vapour.
The practical difference comes down to surface area. A wire coil heats at the points where the wire touches the wick. A mesh coil heats across a much larger area, which gives several benefits:
Pod coils in this class are usually low-power, running at modest wattage so they can be driven by a small battery. That is why mouth-to-lung (MTL) or restricted draw is the typical inhale style: a tighter airflow pulls gently on the mouthpiece the way a cigarette does, and the lower power matches that style. A very airy, open draw is not what these pods are designed for.
Because the coil is built into the pod, you never touch it. There is no need to prime or replace separate coils, no resistance to calculate, and no risk of fitting the wrong part. When the coil wears out, you replace the pod, and that is a reasonable design for a consumable product, since coil life and liquid life end at roughly the same time.
One useful piece of coil knowledge: a coil is a wearing part. It slowly gums up with residue from the e-liquid, which is why the flavour of an old pod gradually degrades. Sweet liquids gum faster than mint, and mint is one of the gentler flavours on a coil, but no coil lasts forever. Fresh Mint pods tend to hold their taste well right through to the end because there is less sugar for the coil to caramelise.
Choosing the right strength is the most important decision you will make with these pods, and it is worth getting right the first time. UK law limits nicotine in e-liquid to a maximum of 20mg/ml (sometimes written as 2%), so no legitimate product sold here will go above that. The Liora pods are typically available at 20mg/ml and at lower strengths such as 10mg/ml, and some ranges also offer a nicotine-free option. Always read the strength printed on the pack, because it can differ between flavours and pack types.
A simple way to think about it:
Because the nicotine is in salt form, it is absorbed more quickly and feels smoother than freebase nicotine at the same strength. That is a feature, but it also means it is possible to take in more nicotine than you realise because it does not feel harsh. If you are new to vaping, do not assume that the highest strength is the safest choice for staying off cigarettes. Pick the strength that stops your cravings without making you feel light-headed, nauseous or jittery. Those are signs of too much nicotine, and the answer is to move down a strength or take fewer puffs.
If you are a non-smoker, these pods are not for you. Nicotine is addictive, and vaping is meant to be a tool for adult smokers to move away from cigarettes, not an entry point. If you are under 18, it is illegal for you to buy them and illegal for anyone to buy them on your behalf.
A practical approach for new switchers: start at the strength that matches your smoking, and re-assess after two weeks. Many people find they naturally settle at a lower strength and can reduce again if they wish. Keeping a mix of strengths at home is not necessary, but it can help when you want to ease down gradually.
The Hayati Liora Fresh Mint pods are a good fit for a fairly specific type of adult vaper. Understanding whether you are in that group saves you money and frustration.
Likely to suit:
Probably not the right choice if:
It is also worth mentioning the role of stop smoking services. In England, local stop smoking services and the NHS can offer free support and in some areas free vape starter kits to adult smokers who want to quit. If you have struggled to quit before, combining a vape with behavioural support gives better results than going it alone. This is not medical advice, and we are a retailer, not a clinic, so if you want personalised guidance, ask a pharmacist or your GP.
Finally, consider how you live. Commuters, shift workers and people who spend long periods away from a socket tend to like pod systems because swapping a pod takes seconds and carrying a spare costs next to nothing. If your days are spent at a desk with a charger next to you, the battery life matters less and you may care more about cost per pod. Match the product to your routine rather than to the spec sheet.
Using a prefilled pod is straightforward, but a few steps make the difference between a good first puff and a disappointing one.
Fitting a new pod:
Everyday use:
Replacing a pod: change the pod when the flavour is clearly gone, the vapour becomes thin even after a rest, or the liquid window is almost empty. Do not wait until the coil is completely dry, because running a coil without liquid produces a burnt taste that is unpleasant and, in some cases, can damage the coil permanently.
Disposal and recycling. Used pods still contain a small amount of liquid, a coil and sometimes traces of nicotine, so they should not go in the household bin or on the street. Under UK electrical waste rules, shops that sell vaping products are expected to accept returns of used vapes and pods, and many local councils also have drop-off points at household waste recycling centres. Keep used pods in a small container until you can drop them off. The device itself, which contains a lithium battery, should always go to an electrical recycling point rather than being thrown away with general rubbish.
Most problems with pod systems come down to a handful of causes, and many can be fixed in a minute without replacing anything. Work through the following before assuming a pod is faulty.
No vapour or the device will not fire:
Burnt or harsh taste:
Weak flavour or thin vapour:
Leaking or gurgling:
Gets hot: a pod device that becomes uncomfortably warm in the hand should be put down and left to cool. Persistent overheating means you should stop using it, and a swollen or hot-while-idle battery should be treated as a safety issue and taken to an electrical recycling point.
If you have worked through these steps and a pod still does not work, it is likely to be a manufacturing fault. We want to know about those, so please get in touch rather than persevering with it.
Value in vaping is not just the price on the label. It is a combination of price per pod, how long each pod lasts, how reliable the experience is, and what the device costs to run over a month. Looking at those factors together gives a more honest picture than comparing sticker prices.
Here is how to think about the numbers:
For smokers, the saving is often substantial. A pack-a-day smoker in the UK spends a very large sum over a year compared with a vaper using one pod every day or two. Exact savings depend on your habits and on current tobacco prices, so we will not quote a specific figure, but it is easy to calculate with your own numbers.
Where a closed pod system is less economical is against a refillable kit. Bottled e-liquid and separate coils cost less per millilitre, so a committed daily vaper who is happy to refill may spend less over the long run. The trade-off is effort and learning. Plenty of people pay a small premium for the simplicity of a prefilled pod, and for them that is good value. The question to ask yourself is whether you want to spend a little more to avoid the hassle.
A final point on value is reliability. A pod that leaks, burns out early or fails to fire is not good value at any price. Buying from a UK retailer with a clear returns process, as we offer, means you have a route to a replacement if a pod is faulty, which protects your money. Check the delivery and returns pages for current terms.
The Liora pods are not the only way to vape in a prefilled format, and it would be unhelpful to pretend they are. Here is a fair comparison with the sort of alternatives you are likely to be weighing up. We are describing categories and general characteristics rather than quoting competitor specifications, which change between releases, so check each brand's current product information before you decide.
Against other closed-pod systems. Widely sold closed-pod kits such as Vuse ePod and Vmate-style devices follow the same basic idea: a small rechargeable body and a sealed prefilled pod. The major differences are the pod ecosystem and flavour range. If you already own a device from another brand, its pods will not fit a Liora, and the reverse is also true. If you are starting from nothing, compare the flavour choices, the price per pod and how easy it is to find replacements near you.
Against refillable pod kits. Refillable systems such as the Aspire Gotek or Vaporesso XROS families use bottled e-liquid and replaceable coils. They give you a vast choice of flavours and a lower running cost, but they need more care. If you are happy to fill a pod, you will likely save money. If you want zero fuss, a prefilled pod wins.
Against the old single-use habit. Single-use vapes can no longer be supplied in the UK. A prefilled pod device is the closest legal replacement in terms of convenience, with a lower waste footprint because the battery is reused.
Where Fresh Mint stands out and where it does not:
Our advice is simple. If you want the least effort and you like mint, the Liora Fresh Mint pods are a sensible, uncomplicated choice. If you want maximum choice and the lowest running costs, a refillable kit may suit you better. If you are unsure, browse the other Hayati Liora flavours alongside our wider pod range, and feel free to message us with questions before you buy.

Hayati has become one of the UK's most-asked-for vape brands on the back of the Pro Max and Pro Ultra Plus — big-puff kits that led the switch from true disposables into prefilled-pod devices. Flavour ranges stretch across 85+ profiles, from British classics like Blackcurrant Menthol to tropical blends built for all-day vaping.
If you smoke ten or more cigarettes a day, 20mg/ml (the UK legal maximum) is the usual starting point, while lighter smokers and people stepping down often prefer 10mg/ml. If you feel light-headed or jittery, move down a strength. Always check the strength printed on the pack, because it can vary between listings.
The pods have no battery, so you charge the Liora device itself, normally through a USB-C port with a standard 5V charger. A full charge commonly takes under 90 minutes, and you should charge on a hard surface and never leave it unattended overnight on a bed or sofa. Check the leaflet in your kit for the exact LED pattern.
Yes, you can switch between different Hayati Liora flavours at any time by changing the pod, and it is worth rinsing your mouth with water for a cleaner taste. Pods from other brands will not fit, so only use pods made for the Liora device.
A 2ml prefilled pod is commonly rated at roughly 500 to 700 puffs, which works out at anything from one day for heavy users to around five days for light users. Your draw length, how often you vape and the nicotine strength you choose all change the result, so treat the figure as an estimate.
For most smokers the running cost is far below that of cigarettes, particularly if you buy multipacks. A refillable kit using bottled e-liquid is cheaper per millilitre, but it takes more effort, so prefilled pods suit people who value simplicity and are happy to pay a little extra for it.
They are meant for adult smokers and existing vapers aged 18 or over who want a simple, mint-flavoured pod with no refilling. If you do not currently smoke or vape, are under 18, or are pregnant, you should not use nicotine products, and anyone with a medical condition should speak to their GP first.
Prefilled pods for a rechargeable device are not single-use vapes, so they are not covered by the ban on disposables that began on 1 June 2025. They also follow the UK limits of 20mg/ml nicotine and 2ml per pod. You must be 18 or over to buy them, and we may ask for proof of age.
Do not put them in the household bin or leave them on the street. Take used pods and old devices to a shop that accepts vape returns or to a local council recycling point, and keep the battery-containing device out of general rubbish because lithium cells can start fires in waste vehicles.
We dispatch to UK addresses using tracked services, and current delivery options, prices and cut-off times are listed on our delivery page at checkout. Because vaping products are age restricted, the courier may ask for an adult to sign or show ID on delivery.

Really pleased with the order overall. Everything arrived as expected, well packed, fast dispatch.
Ordered Wednesday evening, arrived Thursday morning. Everything sealed, genuine, exactly what I expected.
Taste is proper — no chemical aftertaste or anything. Just clean flavour throughout. Love it.
Been looking for something like this for ages. Finally found a brand that doesn't disappoint.
Switched from a well-known brand and this is actually better, especially for the price. Will reorder.
Delivery was super fast and the product is genuine. I've had fakes before so this was a relief.
