Mint & Ice Shisha Flavours
Mint and ice shisha flavours: straight mints and fruit flavours with a cool finish.
How cold do you like it?
Mint flavours run from a sharp, icy peppermint to a light minty edge on a fruit blend. Decide how strong you want the chill, then pick the fruit.
Mint on its own
Straight mints include very cool dark-leaf peppermints such as Tangiers Noir Cane Mint and Tangiers Burley Cane Mint. Starbuzz Simply Mint is a powerful, slightly sweet peppermint, and OverDozz Fresh Greens is a blend of several mints. A straight mint can also go into a fruit bowl for a fresher finish.
Fruit with mint
- Grape: for example Savacco Ikonic, OverDozz Go For Broke or Starbuzz Grape Freeze.
- Citrus: such as Savacco Magna Carta (lime), OverDozz Zero Gravity (lemon) or Starbuzz Mighty Freeze (lemon with icy spearmint).
- Berry, peach and tropical: like Savacco Purple Rain (blueberry), Savacco Black Mamba (berry and peach), Starbuzz Geisha (peach) or OverDozz Kooliche (lychee).
- Iced fruit: for example Savacco Frozen (green apple), Swish (dragon fruit and pomegranate) or Melonrita (melon slush).
- Sweets and gum: such as OverDozz Heat Wave (cinnamon gum), Savacco 6IX Blend (watermelon and spearmint gum) or Tangiers Noir Bug Powder (cherry mint drops).
Leaf style
Some mints are dark leaf, for example the Tangiers mints and Starbuzz Serpent. Serpent is a kettle-cured cut that Starbuzz suggests for moderate to advanced smokers. Dark leaf usually needs a few minutes to heat through, so give the bowl time before you judge it. For a nicotine-free option, look at Starbuzz Steam Stones such as Geisha.
Brand ranges: Tangiers, Savacco and Steam Stones.
Questions
Which flavours are straight mint, with no fruit?
Look for plain mints such as Tangiers Noir Cane Mint, Tangiers Burley Cane Mint, Starbuzz Simply Mint or OverDozz Fresh Greens.
Can I add mint to my usual flavour?
Yes. Mixing a little straight mint into a fruit bowl gives it a cooler finish. Start with a small amount and add more next time if you want it colder.
