The invention relates to an adsorption system (10) for accumulating flavoring substances, comprising at least one working chamber (12) in which at least one sorption agent is provided as a stationary phase and can be subjected to a flavoring substance-containing fluid which can be conducted through the working chamber as a mobile phase for attaching flavoring substances, wherein a ratio of an average cross-sectional thickness to the total length of the at least one working chamber (12) is at most 0.3. The invention also relates to a method for operating such an adsorption system (10).
