An exemplary liquid tank for an atomizer includes a bottom part, a liquid outlet, a first air inlet, a first porous liquid blocking element, and a top part. The bottom part has a first end and an opposite second end, and defines a liquid chamber for containing tobacco liquid. The liquid outlet is defined in the second end. The first air inlet is defined in the first end, so that external air can enter the liquid chamber via the first air inlet. The first porous liquid blocking element covers the first air inlet. The first porous liquid blocking element is capable of preventing the tobacco liquid in the liquid chamber from flowing out via the first air inlet, and allows air to pass through. The top part is detachably connected to the first end. The top part and the bottom part cooperatively clamp the first liquid blocking element therebetween.
