Is there sand in the Genie tobacco?

Was the old genie tobacco stretched with sand?

What is the new Genie Tabak 2.0?

Hello my dears, today it's about the genie tobacco and the myth that has arisen over the years. First of all, we clarify the constant questions that have been asked over the years and have almost become a myth. Now that we have left the old production and no longer use the old recipe, we now want to reveal these secrets. Please understand that we couldn't make things like this public at the time.

The basic tobacco Genie 1.0

In the early days of the German shisha market, there was a definition of quality: don't scratch, don't squeeze. This makes you ask yourself why you can even sell a product that pinches and scratches. Quite simply, most manufacturers in the past were simply too stingy to order high-quality tobacco and simply used the cheapest one that was available on the market, which is rich in nicotine and is just depressing.

Washing the tobacco

In order to avoid nicotine shock and to enhance the value of the tobacco, the old production boiled the tobacco until most of the nicotine and other substances were removed from the tobacco. The tobacco was then pressed and made available for further processing.

The myth of sand in tobacco

A problem for most smokers is dealing with the heat, which often proves difficult. You can avoid this effect by adding sugar to tobacco. This used to ensure heat resistance. You can use different forms of sugar. Since liquid sugar or honey often has an aftertaste, the old production used sugar instead of powdered sugar at the beginning. The result was often recrystallization of the sugar, which was often mistaken for sand. The rumor about the sand was started by some tobacco manufacturers in order to make themselves look better.

We no longer produce using this process because we have changed production and the old production could no longer keep up with the other brands over the years. Before we would have sunk, we had to get off the sinking boat, which we saw was the best step. Not only has the old production disappeared and will probably have to close soon, but also the brands that claimed that there was sand involved. What an irony. Anyone who digs a pit for others will fall into it themselves. So, so much for sand in the genie tobacco.

The new production uses a new recipe and the new production is up to date. We can evolve and become better. We've had the new recipe for a few years, but we were just waiting for the right moment to switch. And the forced break in 2021 came at exactly the right time to finally upgrade the 25 grams. The result is more than impressive and we receive extremely positive feedback.

Of course, the old production took advantage of the situation to spread false rumors that we had quit. But we don't have that, as you can see.

I hope we have relieved you of all the questions you have had over the last few years and answered them. You can try the recipe yourself at home.
