Mint has a herbal, green flavour with a cooling effect. In hookah tobacco, grape is by far its most frequent partner, followed by menthol, lemon, ice and bubblegum.
Telling mint, menthol and ice apart
In the filter these are three separate values. Mint stands for the herbal flavour of the plant, while menthol and ice stand for cooling flavours. Quite a few varieties carry both mint and menthol, so it is worth checking both values when you search.
- Mixing in the bowl: If you combine varieties yourself, the ready-made blends show the way – grape, lemon or bubblegum are the pairings manufacturers most often use with mint.
- Filling the bowl: How much tobacco fits into the bowl depends on the type of cut. By weight, a dark leaf tobacco fills the same bowl differently from a Virginia tobacco.
Manufacturers with mint varieties include Al Fakher, Nameless, Al Waha, Blaze Dark Leaf and Aino.
