The flavor inhaler is used with a rod-like flavor generating article. The flavor inhaler comprises an insertion guide member an opening in which the flavor generating article can be inserted, an inner peripheral surface enclosing an outer periphery of the flavor generating article inserted from the opening, and a ring-like protruding portion that protrudes from the inner peripheral surface to extend over an entire circumference of the inner peripheral surface and abuts on the flavor generating article over the entire circumference of an outer peripheral surface of the inserted flavor generating article. The protruding portion includes, in a circumferential direction of the inner peripheral surface, a portion that changes in a position in the longitudinal direction of the flavor generating article that abuts on the outer peripheral surface of the inserted flavor generating article.
