Tangiers Pomegranate Noir is a dark-leaf hookah tobacco blend of pomegranate.
Flavor build: This shisha flavor opens with a bright, ruby-fruit tang that reads like pomegranate juice and seeds, balancing sweet body with a lightly bitter, skin-like edge. The sweetness sits medium, while tartness is medium-to-high, giving it a crisp, mouthwatering pull that stays lively instead of syrupy. The profile can lean “cranberry-like” in its tart snap, but it remains distinctly pomegranate in aroma, with a clean fruit finish that feels dry and structured rather than candy-soft.
Session behavior: As Tangiers Noir, Pomegranate smokes full and dense once the bowl is properly warmed, with a heavier mouthfeel and strong cloud output. It holds its fruit character well through re-heats when heat is managed steadily, keeping the tart edge present later in the session instead of fading into plain sweetness. Flavor intensity is medium, and the blend stays smooth when you avoid heat spikes that can make the fruit edge feel sharper and drier.
Packing & heat tips: Use a phunnel bowl and a dense pack to keep the flavor concentrated and consistent. Stir the tobacco well before packing so the molasses is evenly distributed, then press it down to a level surface just below the rim. Start with moderate heat and bring the bowl up gradually, then manage with small coal movements rather than adding sudden heat. Tangiers Noir is commonly described as a heavier smoke that benefits from lighter, controlled heat, which helps Pomegranate stay clean and juicy instead of turning overly dry.
Mixing suggestions:
-
Lemon to sharpen the pomegranate into a brighter, crisper citrus-fruit finish.
-
Orange to round the tartness and add a sweeter citrus body behind the pomegranate.
-
Grape to deepen the fruit base and give the bowl a fuller purple-fruit finish.
-
Vanilla in a small ratio to soften the tart edge and make the exhale smoother without covering the pomegranate.
Overall, Tangiers Pomegranate Noir hookah tobacco is a pomegranate-forward dark-leaf blend with balanced sweetness, a crisp tart bite, dense smoke, and strong stability through re-heats with controlled heat.
