Abstract
This non-combusting flavor inhaler is provided with a first flow path which is disposed downstream of a vaporizer unit, and, as an aerosol flow path, a second flow path which is disposed downstream of the first flow path. The second flow path houses a flavor source for imparting flavor to an aerosol. In order to suppress unevenness of aerosol flow in the second flow path, an aerosol flow adjustment chamber for adjusting flow of the aerosol supplied from the first flow path is provided between the first flow path and the second flow path.
