Ginger is a root with a sharp, warm flavour and a lemony top note. In tobacco it works like a spice: rarely alone, almost always as an edge on a fruit.
The pairings show this clearly. Lemon comes first and reinforces the lemony side of the ginger. Pear and elderberry are level behind it, followed by energy and apple. The combination with pome fruit in particular gives a profile that swings between fruit and spice.
The chimney bowl as an alternative
Not every set-up uses foil or an HMD. With a chimney bowl, you place a chimney cap on the bowl; the chimney effect is meant to distribute the heat. Which attachment fits which bowl depends on the rim it rests on. Ginger varieties are available from Kismet, Aino, True Passion, Element Tobacco and Blaze Dark Leaf, among others.
