ABOUT FARSTAR
Since 2019, Farstar has combined China Tobacco Henan's tobacco expertise with a new generation of HNB products and technologies.
Farstar brings heated tobacco sticks, two heating technologies and compatible devices together in one HNB ecosystem. Classic and NSC give partners two considered routes for different markets.
Learn About FarstarFARSTAR CLASSIC
Farstar Classic uses the familiar blade-heating format and works with most widely used devices. Its intuitive experience and broad flavour range help it fit naturally into established HNB portfolios.


FARSTAR NSC
Farstar NSC is a new-generation HNB system created by China Tobacco Henan around its proprietary, patented Natural Smoke Cigarette technology. Its purpose-designed stick and circumferential heating create a controlled, low-oxygen environment that reveals the character of tobacco with greater precision.

HNB · FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HNB, or heat-not-burn, combines an electronic heating device with a specially designed tobacco stick. The device heats the tobacco without intended combustion and produces a nicotine-containing aerosol.
An HNB device heats specially processed tobacco inside a stick. An e-cigarette heats a liquid. They are different product categories, and their consumables and devices are not interchangeable.
HNB systems are designed to heat tobacco rather than burn it. The absence of combustion does not make the aerosol harmless: it still contains nicotine and other chemicals.
No tobacco product is safe. HNB products contain addictive nicotine and are intended only for adult tobacco consumers. People who do not use tobacco products should not start.
No. The heating method, stick dimensions and structure, chamber geometry and operating parameters must match. Farstar Classic is intended for verified compatible blade-heating devices, while NSC is used only with dedicated circumferential-heating devices.
