DarkSide - Code Cherry (250g) — hookah tobacco with a ripe cherry profile
DarkSide - Code Cherry (250g) is hookah tobacco built around the rich taste of ripe cherries, a bold juicy berry aroma and a noticeable tart stone aftertaste. The profile combines full fruitiness with a drier, more distinctive finish, giving the flavour extra definition rather than leaving it as a simple sweet fruit note.
On the first draws, ripe cherry takes the lead; as the session develops, the tartness associated with the stone becomes more apparent and adds depth.

Flavour profile
The opening impression is recognisably cherry-forward, juicy and full. This is not a barely perceptible fruit accent: the berry character is designed to remain the central idea of the bowl. As the session progresses, the flavour can feel more structured as the tart stone note joins the ripe fruit.
Mixing ideas
Used on its own, the tobacco gives the cherry room to develop without interference. Pay attention to the early draws, when ripe fruit and juiciness are most apparent, then compare them with the later stage as the tart stone impression becomes more noticeable.
For a fruit mix, cherry can provide a central anchor. Pairing it with a softer sweet fruit may highlight contrast and prevent the blend from feeling flat.
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.
