Tangiers Birquq 11 - Kashmir Cherry (Spices & Cherry) 250 gr

A darker, spiced twist on cherry hookah tobacco

Tangiers Birquq Kashmir Cherry takes the familiar idea of cherry hookah tobacco and sends it in a completely different direction. Instead of a bright, candy-style fruit, this blend leans into deep cherry notes wrapped in warm, aromatic spices, creating a flavor that feels rich, layered, and distinctly Tangiers.

The cherry here is full and sweet rather than sharp or sour, with just enough tart edge to keep it from becoming heavy. What really defines this blend, though, is the Kashmir spice profile: complex, perfumed, and slightly exotic, it adds a bold backbone that runs through every pull. The result is a characterful, medium-strength tobacco that stands out from typical fruit flavors and appeals to smokers who like darker, more intricate blends.

This is part of the Birquq line, known among Tangiers fans for offering the brand’s signature depth in a somewhat more approachable take on strength than their heaviest series. The tobacco is designed for traditional-style packing, and many experienced smokers prefer using a quality clay bowl to help showcase the dense flavor and handle the higher heat this blend can comfortably tolerate. As with any Tangiers, fine-tuning your heat and pack is important, but this flavor is generally forgiving enough for seasoned Tangiers users.

The 250 gram pack is a good fit if you already know you enjoy spiced flavors or want something more adventurous than standard cherry. You can smoke it straight for that unmistakable Kashmir cherry profile, or, if you like to experiment, mix smaller portions with simpler fruits or desserts to bring a spiced, cherry-forward accent into your rotation.
