Flavour profile
Currant remains the focus from the first impression to the finish. Its character is sour and fresh rather than soft or sugary, while the tart and spicy aroma adds extra definition. This keeps the flavour from feeling one-dimensional.
Mixing ideas
- With a citrus direction: an additional sour note may reinforce the refreshing side of the currant. Keep the second flavour modest at first so it does not cover the berry base.
- With a cooling or mint direction: this can increase the sense of freshness, but a cooling note may quickly dominate. Add it gradually and adjust to taste.
- With a gentle berry direction: a softer berry layer may round out the tartness while leaving the currant recognisable.
These are suggestions for personal experimentation, not manufacturer-recommended recipes.
Packing, heat and storage
- Stir the tobacco in the tin so the syrup is evenly spread.
- Pack the bowl loosely and leave a gap to the foil or heat device.
- Start with moderate charcoal and heat the bowl gradually.
- If it turns bitter or harsh, remove some charcoal and let the bowl cool.
- Store sealed, away from direct sun and heat.
