Tangiers Mime Noir is a hookah tobacco blend of powerful lime and chilly mint notes, delivering a sharp citrus bite up front with a clean, cooling finish.
Flavor build: Lime leads immediately with a bright, punchy acidity that reads closer to fresh lime juice and zest than a sweetened limeade. The citrus stays foregrounded throughout, giving the bowl a crisp, tangy backbone that feels lively and palate-clearing. Mint follows as the supporting layer, adding a chilly cooling effect that shows most clearly on the exhale and smooths the lime’s sharper edges without turning the profile sweet. The balance is direct and refreshing: lime provides the snap and structure, mint provides lift and a clean finish. Sweetness lands at low, tartness is high, and overall intensity is strong, with the lime remaining dominant and the mint staying consistent rather than fading.
Session behavior: As a Tangiers Noir hookah tobacco, Mime produces dense clouds and a heavier mouthfeel when heat is held steady. The flavor opens gradually and becomes smoother after the first heat cycle, while keeping the lime bright and the mint finish firm through re-heats. It performs best with controlled heat changes. Overheating can make the lime taste overly sharp and push the mint into an aggressive lane, while underheating can mute the lime and reduce the cooling clarity. In a stable heat zone, it stays crisp, smooth, and long-lasting.
Packing & heat tips: A phunnel bowl is recommended for clean citrus definition and a stable cooling finish. Pack dense and even, level the surface, and keep the tobacco slightly below the rim to reduce the chance of scorching. Start with moderate heat and allow a patient warm-up so the lime settles into a clean, bright note before adding more heat. Once it is producing steady smoke, adjust in small steps. If the lime becomes too sharp, reduce heat slightly and let the bowl stabilize to bring the mint balance back.
Overall, Tangiers Mime Noir hookah tobacco is a strong lime-and-mint shisha mix with high tartness, pronounced cooling on the exhale, dense clouds, and reliable stability through re-heats when heat is kept steady.
