[quote name='Chreees' timestamp='1320980869' post='531140'] I love coffee with hookah. Tea as well. I need to find a good blueberry tobacco flavor to compliment my blueberry tea. [/quote] Fumari blueberry muffin?

Hot green tea is just as awesome, in my opinion

I did some research, and basically came up with nothing as well. The only source I found that might be relevant is: [b]Tobacco in history and [b]culture[/b] : an encyclopedia / Jordan Goodman[/b] Hope it helps!

This is definitely one of the better places in town. It's located right off of Academy and Austin Bluffs in a strip mall most people wouldn't bat an eye lash at. Their hookahs are all large, generic Egyptians. They have a HUGE selection: SB, AF, Fumari, Fantasia with a grand total of about 70 flavors. The staff knows how to pack the bowls. I've never been disappointed with a smoke there. The atmosphere is super chill. Dim lights, super comfy couches, pool table. Music is a mix, different every night. Usually the right level, but on weekends somehow can get pretty loud. The staff is knowledgeable. The owner is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He makes complimentary tea that will blow your mind. Price. $12 for a hookah that can be split. Overall, my favorite lounge. Definitely check it out if ever in the Springs.

One of the worse lounges in town. Any place where you have to wait 45 minutes for coals is no bueno. Not to mention they suck at making bowls.

<p>In my personal opinion, you can't go wrong with Syrians. I have one and it is one of the better hookahs I've smoked out of. And, these ones are just absolutely gorgeous. </p> <div id="myEventWatcherDiv" style="display:none;"> </div>

Tangiers Noir Melon Blend. Mighty tasty!

Strawberry Hookah: Generic 24 inch Israeli Bowl: After mark small phunnel Screen/foil: Reynold HD Hose: The generic one that came with the hookah Coals: Coconaras Windcover: Affirmative Base Liquid: Water Appearance:Spot on like river rocks Nicotine: N/A Base: I'm not quite sure. According to the website, something about pressure injecting the flavor into the rocks Smell:Like I'm in a strawberry patch! So good! Taste:Like a strawberry! I was very happy! smoke: Clouds of the gods! Buzz: None Duration: About 80 minutes Purchased from: 5starhookah.com Overall: This is now one of my all-time favorite smokes! I prefer it to Tangiers Cool Strawberry, even. And the smoke is just as good if not better! I also have some honeydew melon I'm excited to try and write a review for. This is definitely a great alternative to tobacco, it might even start to replace some brands in my personal stash. Also, the price is pretty good for the 100g container compared to say 100g of Starbuzz. Check it out everyone!

The only real improvising I've done is using tin foil as a wind cover.

Gravemint (Not sure where the name came from lol) All Al Fakher 1/3 rose 1/3 vanilla 1/3 mint It sounds odd, but it works REALLY well. They all compliment each other perfectly

Looks like the homemade stuff I bought in Israel... Ah, how I wish I could get some more! The flavor was similar, and the amount of smoke I got was absolutely ridiculous. My clouds owned anything I've ever got out of Tangiers.

[quote name='Bawhee' timestamp='1309038655' post='513658'] btw, can anyone translate what flav. it is from the box? i dont understand egyptian [/quote] It is actually Arabic, which most of that part of the world speaks. I have a very basic understanding of the language, and I can't read that. Sorry! [img]http://www.hookahforum.com/public/style_emoticons/default/2ar15smilie.gif[/img]

[quote name='CarePolice' timestamp='1308014452' post='512578'] Ooh, another CO smoker. Get some more of it so I can try it! [/quote] I'll see what I can do! I have enough left for maybe a bowl, though. It is very saddening!

...Watermelon mint from Israel, freshly made the morning I bought it. It is absolutely amazing, and on par if not better then Tangiers and it fits into a normal bowl. And the smoke is absolutely ridiculous. I'll have to see about posting some pictures, but I'm almost out due to smoking it so much! How I wish we could get this stuff here in the U.S.!

In my opinion, Tangiers is the best. In second place, is the homemade stuff one of the local lounges in town makes. It is just awesome and maybe a point below on Tangiers on my personal scale. Then I'd have to go with Starbuzz.
