Afzal Dubai Mint Hookah Tobacco - 10 Packs x 50g

Afzal's premium Arabic mint blend. Richer and more full-bodied than plain Mint, without the sweet gum character of Ice Gum Mint. The mint that hookah lounges built their reputation on, in ten individually sealed 50g packs, 500g total.

Dubai Mint occupies a specific position in Afzal's mint range that neither plain Mint nor Ice Gum Mint fills. Plain Mint is sharp, direct, and single-note, the clean mint that is used as a mixer across the catalog. Ice Gum Mint is sweet, soft, and candy-like, the approachable mint with a gum character. Dubai Mint is neither of those. It is the richer, fuller-bodied option, described by Afzal's manufacturing parent as "a special Arabic mint blend, rich and cooling."

The Arabic mint tradition in hookah culture is distinct from the Western approach to mint shisha. Where plain mint aims for a clean, icy, direct cooling experience, Arabic-style mint like Dubai Mint brings more complexity and body to the session. The mint character is deeper and more rounded, with a richness that makes each draw feel more substantial and satisfying than the thinner profile of basic mint. It is the mint flavor that Middle Eastern and Arabic hookah culture has long preferred for its presence and depth, and the one that upscale hookah lounges globally stock specifically because of how well it performs and how consistently it earns the repeat orders.

The 10-pack format serves Dubai Mint well. Ten individually sealed 50g packs maintain the richness and cooling character of the blend at factory intensity through all 500g of the supply. Each fresh pack delivers the full-bodied Arabic mint experience without the gradual flattening that comes from repeated access to a single large container over weeks.

Each 50g pack gives three to four sessions. The box gives approximately 30 to 35 total sessions of Dubai Mint at better per-gram value than two single 250g tubs.
