Apricot shisha tobacco

How does apricot shisha tobacco taste?

Apricot is the quieter sister of the peach: less juicy and sweet, but honey-like, velvety and with a fine, tart note that is reminiscent of the kernel. It is precisely this interaction that makes Odinson LOKI to the flagship of the aroma - there the apricot meets ripe peach and a strong base that gives the delicate aroma backbone. Ocean Strong Mary Bary combined the apricot with strawberry instead, but is currently out of stock. Noticeable: We only like apricot in dark blend – there is currently no gentle interpretation. If you like the drupe lighter, you will find its closest relatives in Peach shelf, approximately Darkside Virgin Peach 2.0 or Kismet Black Peach 12 honey-based.

Our aroma profile for apricot in comparison:

• Sweetness: 3 out of 5 – honey-like instead of sugary, always with a bitter counterpoint
• Acid: 2 out of 5 – significantly milder than citrus, just a ripe fruit accent
• Freshness: 2 out of 5 – warm summer fruit, no cooling effect
• Strength: 4 out of 5 – the entire apricot shelf is on strong dark blend
• Smoke development: 4 out of 5 – modern molasses blends with dense clouds

What brands make apricot tobacco?

The apricot belongs Odinson – the Viking brand uses it as a supporting pillar in LOKI. OCEAN Mary Bary has the second apricot menu in its range, but it is currently out of stock. In the extended stone fruit environment are Kismet with its honey blends and Darkside the most important addresses. Remarkable: Apricot itself is only available as Darkblend – who is gentle Virginia-Drupe wants to go to the peach neighbors.

Setup recommendation for apricot shisha tobacco

LOKI and its stone fruit relatives are moist molasses tobaccos and belong light and fluffy in one Phunnel head, with 2-3 mm of air to the Smokebox (HMD). Depending on the size of your head, 15-22 g will end up in your head - don't press it, otherwise compacted areas will cost you smoke and taste.

Because the apricot shelf is completely on dark blend, the following applies: start with reduced heat and adjust it better. Too much charcoal quickly makes the fine apricot aroma scratchy, and if you want to smooth out the nicotine kick, press the tobacco a little closer. Natural coal instead of self-ignition is mandatory - the chemistry of the self-ignition would immediately overpower the delicate aroma.

Which one suits you?

Mix apricot – the best combinations

• Apricot + peach (50/50): The double stone fruit principle that LOKI presents: Peach makes the apricot juicier and sweeter without drowning out its character.
• Apricot + strawberry (60/40): The Mary Bary direction for mixing yourself: Strawberry brings red sweetness to the tart apricot - fruity and round without a cooling effect.
• Apricot + vanilla (70/30): A third of vanilla turns the apricot into an apricot dumpling for the head - creamy, warm, desserty.
• Apricot + Ice (70/30): Ice gives the warm summer fruit a frosty coating - use sparingly, otherwise the delicate aroma will freeze completely.
