Even heating helps reveal the tobacco profile with consistency.
FARSTAR NSC · CIRCUMFERENTIAL HEATING
Farstar NSC is a heated tobacco system developed by China Tobacco Henan. A purpose-designed stick and circumferential heating work together as one new-generation system.


NSC TECHNOLOGY
The heating circuit surrounds the tobacco section of the stick evenly. A controlled, low-oxygen environment helps reveal the tobacco character consistently, without direct contact with a heating blade.

THE TECHNOLOGY IN USE
Even heating helps reveal the tobacco profile with consistency.
A controlled process supports an even and satisfying delivery.
No tobacco-to-blade contact makes everyday device use simpler.
THE FARSTAR NSC COLLECTION
Eight NSC heated tobacco stick flavours—from clean tobacco profiles to cooling and aromatic expressions—are developed for one circumferential-heating system.

The heating chamber surrounds the tobacco section and transfers heat from the outside inward without inserting a blade into the tobacco. The stick, chamber and device operating parameters are engineered as one system.
Blade heating transfers heat from the centre of the tobacco section outward through an inserted blade. NSC heats the tobacco section around its circumference. This difference determines both stick and device architecture, so the systems are not interchangeable.
The NSC stick has its own dimensions and internal structure, and its tobacco section is aligned with the chamber geometry and circumferential-heating profile. A blade-heating HNB device cannot reproduce this operating principle.
An NSC stick is 48 mm long, with a 33 mm tobacco section and a 15 mm filter section, and has a circumference of 23.1 mm. Each pack contains 20 sticks, and the collection includes eight flavours.
NSC has no blade entering the tobacco section and collecting residue after a session, so there is no heating blade to clean. The device must still be used and maintained according to its instructions.
No. NSC stick dimensions and architecture are designed for a dedicated circumferential-heating chamber. Farstar Classic is the product line intended for central blade-heating devices.
