Afzal Ice Gum Mint Hookah Tobacco - 250g Shisha Molasses

Mint with a sweet twist. Ice Gum Mint takes the cooling you expect from a mint shisha and adds the sweet, nostalgic character of spearmint chewing gum. Thick clouds, strong icy finish, and a flavor that sits apart from every other mint option in the catalog.

Not all mint shishas are the same. Plain Afzal Mint is sharp, clean, and direct with no sweetness. Dubai Mint is rich and bold with an Arabic character. Ice Gum Mint is the sweet version, and that sweetness is the entire reason it exists as a separate flavor. The gum character in Ice Gum Mint is the spearmint chewing gum profile: the kind of sweetness that Chiclets, Juicy Fruit, and spearmint stick gum carry, a candy-adjacent sweetness that is distinctly different from pure mint and familiar to almost everyone in an instant.

Afzal describes the standard Gum flavor as going back to "your bubble gum chewing days" and being "a strong version of the traditional bubble gum flavor that will coat your palate with a strong icy feeling." Ice Gum Mint takes that concept and pushes the icy element further with the stronger menthol cooling that Afzal uses across their Icy range. The result is a shisha where the mint's cooling arrives with force, the gum's sweetness softens and rounds the experience, and the two qualities reinforce each other throughout the session.

Buyers who find pure mint shishas too sharp or too stripped-back land on Ice Gum Mint as the mint that actually suits them. The gum sweetness adds enough body and familiarity that it does not require the same openness as the more polarizing Afzal flavors like the pan range. It is approachable, enjoyable, and delivers thick clouds consistent with Afzal's molasses quality.
