Flavour profile
At the beginning of a session, red currant comes through clearly and aromatically. Its pleasant sour edge provides the main definition, while the light sweetness prevents the profile from feeling too sharp. As the flavour develops, the juicy berry impression becomes more noticeable, followed by the characteristic fruity aftertaste.
Mixing ideas
- With a softer berry: this may create a fuller, smoother berry impression while keeping the mix in the same family. Add the second flavour gradually so it does not hide the red currant.
- With a fruit flavour: a fruit component can echo the aftertaste and add another layer to the juicy profile. This idea suits those who enjoy bright, fruit-forward combinations.
- With a sweeter flavour: a sweeter note may reduce the perceived sharpness of the tartness. Treat this as a personal mixing idea, not as a manufacturer recipe or recommendation.
Try the flavour on its own first to understand the relationship between tartness, sweetness and the fruity finish.
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.
