The World Cup 2026 is here! 48 teams, one tournament, and absolutely no excuse not to have the right vape in hand. We’ve picked ten nations and matched them to a Totally Wicked flavour. Some were obvious. Some needed a little thought. Curaçao needed absolutely none.
We've even paired our findings with a little Football fact about each team, to really ignite the excitement about the upcoming tournament.
Spain
Spain have won the World Cup once, the Euros four times, and play the kind of football that makes other managers want to retire. Peach, orange, and cranberry – it’s a Mediterranean cocktail and it suits them perfectly. No notes.
Spain once had a goalkeeper, Santiago Canizares, miss the 2002 World Cup after dropping a bottle of aftershave on his foot and severing a tendon. They were eliminated in the quarter-finals without him. Football is cruel.
Brazil
Five World Cups. The most famous footballing nation on earth. If you gave Brazil a tobacco flavour there’d be riots. Passionfruit and mango – tangy, tropical, and with a bit of swagger. It makes sense. A lively, passionate flavour for a lively, passionate team.
Brazil are the only nation to have played in every single World Cup since the tournament began in 1930. Every. Single. One.
USA
They’re hosting it, they’ve got a squad that’s actually pretty decent for once, and Cherry Cola is as American as it gets. Dark cherry, cola, and enough confidence to carry a whole tournament. Co-host energy.
The USA famously beat England 1-0 at the 1950 World Cup in one of the biggest upsets in football history. It's a football urban myth that England’s newspapers initially thought the result was a typo.
Mexico
Co-hosts, passionate support, and a fanbase that turns every match into a party. Aniseed is bold and immediately recognisable – exactly like the noise inside the Estadio Azteca when Mexico score. It’s not subtle, and it’s not trying to be.
Mexico hold the record for the most World Cup appearances without ever reaching the semi-finals – they’ve gone out in the round of 16 on seven consecutive occasions. This one’s on home soil, so maybe this time.
France
Two-time world champions, runners-up last time out, and they have Mbappe. Gingerbread Latte is warm, spiced, and layered – the sort of flavour that feels like it knows something you don’t. France have that same energy. Slightly annoying, undeniably good.
France holds an unmatched “Grand Slam” record in football history, being the first and only European nation to win every single major trophy available to them
Germany
Germany have four World Cups and have been in the final eight times. Golden Tobacco has been in the Red Label range for years and people keep coming back to it. There’s a pattern here. Neither one is the life of the party, but you’d always rather have them on your side.
Germany’s Miroslav Klose is the all-time top scorer in World Cup history with 16 goals. He’s also one of the most well-liked players in the history of the tournament. He once asked a referee to rescind a yellow card and a penalty because of a foul being an accident.- For his honesty, he won a Fair Play award from the German Football Association.
Argentina
Defending champions. Messi’s last tournament was the one he finally won, so this is a new chapter. Colombia Coffee is dark, complex, and has a slightly floral undertone that sneaks up on you. Argentina football has always been like that – beautiful and a little unpredictable.
Argentina’s World Cup win in 2022 ended a 36-year wait. When the final whistle went, an estimated five million people flooded the streets of Buenos Aires – a city of arond three million.
England
Strawberry, meringue, and cream – it’s quintessentially English and occasionally falls apart completely. You already know where this is going. It’s coming home. Probably not. But there’s always a chance.
England’s 1966 World Cup win remains the only major international trophy in their history. That was 60 years ago. The average England fan wasn’t alive when it happened.
Scotland
This one picked itself. Scottish Soda – fruity, fizzy, and with a kick – is Scotland in a bottle. They qualified for their first World Cup since 1998 and deserve every bit of recognition they get for it. The fact that they’re in Group C with Brazil only adds to the narrative.
Scotland were actually the very first international football team ever, playing England in the world’s first international match in 1872. The result was 0-0. Some things never change.
Curacao
Red Label Orange and Lime Fizz
A small Caribbean island with a population of around 150,000 are making their World Cup debut against Germany. Orange and Lime Fizz – zesty, a bit cheeky, and nobody saw it coming. We’re all supporting Curacao as a second team. That’s just the rules.
Curaçao’s squad includes several players born in the Netherlands who switched allegiance to represent the island. Their most famous connection is Georginio Wijnaldum, though he plays for the Netherlands. Still – the island has punched well above its weight to get here.
