Tangiers Wintergreen Noir is a hookah tobacco blend of wintergreen gum and mint, delivering a sweet wintergreen body with a powerful, refreshing mint push on the exhale.
Flavor build: The bowl opens with a recognizable wintergreen gum character, smooth and slightly sweet with that classic wintergreen “gum” profile rather than a leafy herbal mint. The wintergreen note carries the main body, reading clean and saturated, with a mild candy-like sweetness that stays controlled. On the exhale, a stronger mint layer shows up clearly, adding a sharper cooling sensation and a brighter finish that keeps the wintergreen from feeling heavy. Sweetness sits at medium, tartness is low, and intensity is strong, with the cooling effect becoming more pronounced as the bowl settles into its heat zone. The profile stays straightforward and defined, with wintergreen as the anchor and mint as the finishing lift.
Session behavior: As a Tangiers Noir hookah tobacco, Wintergreen Noir produces dense clouds and a heavy, smooth mouthfeel when heat is stable. The flavor opens gradually, becoming more cohesive after the first heat cycle, and it remains consistent through re-heats with the mint finish staying present. It responds best to steady heat control. Overheating can make the mint feel too sharp and aggressive, while underheating can mute the wintergreen gum body and reduce the overall punch. With balanced heat, it stays smooth, cooling-forward, and long-lasting.
Packing & heat tips: A phunnel bowl is recommended for predictable heat control and clean cooling performance. Pack dense and even, level the surface, and keep the tobacco slightly below the rim to avoid scorching the top layer. Start with moderate heat and allow a patient warm-up so the wintergreen base stabilizes before increasing heat. Once it is producing steady clouds, make small heat adjustments rather than frequent changes. If the mint becomes too intense, lower heat slightly and let the bowl settle to bring the wintergreen gum character back into balance.
Overall, Tangiers Wintergreen Noir hookah tobacco is a strong wintergreen gum shisha flavor finished with a powerful mint exhale, producing dense clouds and stable performance through re-heats when heat is kept steady.
