The fast read: choose between the ELF BAR Ice King 25K and Ice King Pro 40K by flavor style first, hardware second. Ice King's current spread covers straight mint and menthol, fruit ice, tea, drink and tropical ground. Ice King Pro overlaps the fruit and drink territory, then adds names like Ultra Mint, teas, coffee and dessert-leaning options. Both models carry adjustable cooling — so which flavor you pick and how cold you dial it are two separate decisions.
This is a shopping map of flavor families currently offered in the U.S., not a taste-test ranking. Names, recipes, nicotine strengths and per-variation stock all drift. The live selector and the package that lands are the final references.
Pick Your Lane Before Picking a Name
Straight Mint & Cold
Menthol or Miami Mint on Ice King; Ultra Mint / Miami Mint on Ice King Pro — whichever variations are live right now.
Fruit + Ice
Scan Apple Ice, Mango Ice, Peach Ice, Watermelon Ice, Grape Ice, Lychee Ice. The fruit leads; "Ice" flags a cooled finish, not a new device class.
Tropical & Citrus
Ice King typically holds Pineapple Ice, Pina Colada, Lemon Lime and Yuja Ice; Ice King Pro carries blended tropical and citrus names like Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava and Lemon Lime.
Tea & Drinks
Ice King: Jasmine Green Tea, Cola Ice, Ion Ice. Ice King Pro widens the lane with tea, coffee, cola and mojito-style names across its current range.
Dessert & Specialty
Ice King Pro owns the overt dessert/specialty corner — Taro Ice Cream and Coffee on the current listing. Read names as cues, never as sweetness measurements.
| Flavor style | Ice King 25K examples | Ice King Pro 40K examples | Check before buying |
|---|---|---|---|
| Straight mint / menthol | Menthol, Miami Mint | Ultra Mint, Miami Mint | Verify the exact flavor and its live variation; two mint names never share a recipe by assumption. |
| Fruit + ice | Apple Ice, Mango Ice, Pineapple Ice, Watermelon Ice, Yuja Ice | Apple Ice, Grape Ice, Lychee Ice, Peach Ice, Strawberry Kiwi Ice, Watermelon Ice | "Ice" is a name-level cooling cue; the device control also moves the real chill. |
| Tropical / mixed fruit | Pina Colada, Markisha, Melon, Shine Muscat | Double Mango, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Mango Peach Watermelon, Guava | Shortlist by lead fruit; actual balance needs maker sensory data or testing to know. |
| Tea / beverage | Jasmine Green Tea, Cola Ice, Ion Ice | Assam Tea, Green Tea Ice, Lemon Tea, Coffee, Cola Ice, Rose Mojito | Names point at intended direction, not a standardized sweetness or cooling grade. |
| Dessert / specialty | Few dessert-named current examples | Taro Ice Cream and other specialty names on the live range | Check live availability; richness cannot be read from the name. |
Note: the table is a style map, not a frozen inventory. Availability moves; confirm what's actually live on each product page.
Same Cooling DNA, Different Flavor Books
The two models feel like siblings because both run five adjustable cooling levels, draw activation and rechargeable Type-C power. Their flavor catalogs, though, are separate libraries. An Ice King name does not automatically appear on the Pro, and a name carried by both is not proof of one shared formula.
That split matters when flavor runs the purchase. After Menthol? The Ice King listing is the straight road. After Ultra Mint or a tea/dessert name from the Pro's range? Start there. Once the family is settled, the hardware comparison lives in Vapmo's Ice King vs Ice King Pro guide.
Fruit + Ice: The Biggest Shared Shelf
Both lineups devote generous space to fruit-plus-cooling names. Apple Ice and Watermelon Ice appear across current ranges, and each model stacks its own grape, berry, mango, peach, citrus and tropical bench.
The efficient trim: name the lead fruit before touching the modifier.
- Grape-led: Grape Ice, Shine Muscat-style names.
- Mango / tropical: Mango Ice, Pina Colada, Double Mango, mixed tropicals.
- Watermelon / melon: Watermelon Ice vs Melon-style options.
- Citrus: Lemon Lime and Yuja Ice — cleaner starts than broad mixed-fruit labels.
Don't convert names into taste scores. No controlled tasting panel ran for this guide, and "Ice" cannot disclose how cold a flavor lands at every cooling level.
Mint and Menthol Are Different Words for a Reason
Ice King currently keeps Menthol and Miami Mint as distinct names; Ice King Pro lists Ultra Mint beside Miami Mint. Reason enough to stop treating "mint," "menthol" and "ice" as synonyms.
The full language lesson sits in Vapmo's Mint vs Menthol guide. Shopping version: mint = mint-style taste direction; menthol = cooling-compound profile; "Ice" = a cooling cue that can attach to fruit, drink or mint — never a formula promise.
Tea and Drink Names Give the Pro Its Extra Reach
Ice King currently offers Jasmine Green Tea, Cola Ice and Ion Ice. Ice King Pro stretches the idea: Assam Tea, Green Tea Ice, Lemon Tea, Coffee, Cola Ice, Rose Mojito on the current listed range.
These names earn their keep when plain fruit runs dry on you. Tea, coffee, soda and mojito labels announce the intended family — and without a published sensory scale they prove nothing about sweetness, bitterness or realism. Lock the profile, then let the cooling dial decide the chill.
Cooling Control Is Decision Two, Not Decision One
ELFBAR's official Ice King Pro material describes five selectable cooling levels, and Vapmo's Ice King listing runs the same five-level ice control. So flavor name and cooling setting are genuinely different choices: pick the flavor, then tune the cold inside the device's range.
The saner ordering:
- Family: mint, fruit, tea, drink, tropical or specialty.
- Exact flavor: confirm it's selectable on the model you want, today.
- Nicotine strength: current Ice King and Ice King Pro listings carry different listed strengths — regional versions can differ again.
- Device controls: Ice King runs Turbo positions + electronic liquid indicator; Ice King Pro runs a transparent tank + MIN/MAX airflow.
- Cooling last: start low, climb gradually — the name doesn't fix the final chill.
Where Should You Start?
Start From a Flavor You Already Trust
Straight mint / cold seeker
Menthol or Miami Mint on Ice King; Ultra Mint or Miami Mint on the Pro — verify live variations before checkout.
Fruit-with-ice seeker
Apple Ice, Watermelon Ice, Peach Ice, Mango Ice, Grape Ice — any plainly named fruit-ice on the live selector.
Tea or drink seeker
Jasmine Green Tea and Ion Ice on Ice King vs Assam Tea, Green Tea Ice, Lemon Tea, Coffee or Rose Mojito on the Pro.
Tropical / mixed-fruit seeker
Pina Colada and tropical picks on Ice King; Double Mango and blends on the Pro.
Dessert / specialty seeker
The Pro holds the clearer specialty corner, Taro Ice Cream included. Treat the name as a category cue, not a tested sweetness claim.
The Wrap
Working an ELF BAR flavor list isn't about crowning one universal "best." Lead with the style you already favor, then compare only the names currently offered on Ice King 25K and Ice King Pro 40K. Ice King leans straight mint/menthol plus fruit-ice; the Pro overlaps on fruit and adds deeper tea, drink and specialty coverage.
