  1. Im not sure if it was AF licorice i had or not, but i remember it having a black licorice flavour to it, wheras the double apple taste is quite different, its not too overpowering imo.
  2. Just cold water, no ice or anything. I've even tried to overpack it but nothing. no anise taste at all =[
  3. I got 2kg of af double apple and it hasn't got the strong taste it used to have! my set up is a km trimetal with an alien phunnel. I've tried it in an egyptian too, i use cocobricos but have also tried QL's and its just not as strong as i remember the other batches being. Does anyone know whats up with them? has anyone else been getting bad batches? Both of my kg tubs are from 2010. ones in october and on the other one the month has rubbed off.
  4. Aha pakistan sale! very funny! magic coals! WOW! 4800 rupees im guessing, so its rougly 100-110 Rupees to a gbp pound. about 46 pounds rougly?
  5. [quote name='Hassouni' timestamp='1283596936' post='481218'] I just temporarily relocated to London (until at least Thanksgiving time back in the States). I don't have any smoking stuff here, but my dear Elmas nargiles are more cheaply shipped here, and I can also get KMs for like $50. So, as you may conclude, I might buy a hookah for here. However, I wanna know what the best place to buy coals, tobacco, etc is - either in London or online (I know about Edgware Road). Is ALL mu'assal hella expensive? I saw some websites selling 250gs of Nakhla for £20 and AF for £30 - that's over $30 and $45!! Do any brick-and-mortar shops sell Coconaras or other good coals? Altternatively, maybe it's now time to start making my own? [/quote] Hey! Hope your enjoying London! I got some bad news for you, its really hard to find decently priced tobacco here. Al fakher 250g sells for around £10-£15, nakhla 250g £10. Thats all ive seen really, some places sell starbuzz but its very over priced. you wont find any online vendors that openly sell hookah tobacco products (however if you email them they might be able to sort you out) due to the insane tax on hookah tobacco. Basically yes, all shisha is expensive here :\ Best bet is to order from the states and just pray you dont get caught by customs! I have so far not seen any shop selling coconars. however you can get some from www.shishabuzz.com but again, they are madly overpriced. If your looking to make your own! i dont mind helping out so drop me a PM if you need! Hope this helped.
  6. So i packed the phunnel nicely this time! 3 QLs, no harshness, no smoke. I must be doing something wrong, i didnt even get a buzz from it :\
  7. so basically like janah the arabic word for paradise? I take it i smoke this with foil right? i was reading online this was real unhealthy because it has metals and stuff in it? anyone care to clarify
  8. [quote name='twoapplesplease' date='06 August 2010 - 06:46 PM' timestamp='1281142012' post='478017'] Its Jurak...You will need alot more heat...start with 4 coals then go from there...pack tight but not super tight [/quote] Woah 4 qls! On a mini!?!?
  9. It says hukka tobacco paste (jurak) How do I smoke this shiz?
  10. I got some flavour from tunisia from a friend, I think its jannat el fawakeh brand or something, anyway this shiz is really really sticky and is completly black! Smells like shiz and I packed it real tight ina phunnel with two qls, got no smoke! Tried it with no foil, was deffintly not the right thing to do! Any idea how I set this baccy up?
  11. Sister and husband went on thier honeymoon to dubai, bought me back a small pumpkin thinking id just smoke it once or twice. Little did they know, it would get me hooked for life. now im a proud owner of a KM trimetal! Sadly my first pumpkin broke=[

  13. [quote name='mohinder' date='20 July 2010 - 03:15 PM' timestamp='1279660508' post='475791'] Anyone else noticed there's hardly any AF about lately? I didn't see even 20% as much as when I was last up there. Anyone know why? This is multiple shops too in Queensway AND Edgware. [/quote] The reason why there isnt much AF about as there usually is, is because of customs cracking down heavily on tobbaco coming in on planes etc, including shisha flavour. i could get a KG of AF for around £30, recently though its gone up to £50! I was speaking to a hookah lounge owner and he said you just have to wait it through, sooner or later the prices will start dropping again, hopefully...
  14. Yeah deffo what hassouni said! Edgware road is much better! Queensway does have a few hookah places but the variety isnt as good as edgwere road! Deffiently check out Eroad! And woah! £35 for KMs is dirt cheap! I also got my trimetal for about £60! [b] [/b]
  15. I tried this with my Mini and some AF, smoke was nice for some time but got harsh! then i noticed all the cocos had moved into the middle and the foil was going black, gonna try make a stronger flatter foil seal and see if this fixes it! Smoke was good while it lasted though! how many cocos should i put on my mini while doing this method? 1 big hole in middle or lots of small ones for af?
  16. Woah i wish this site was legit. Check out those cheap prices! (For us Ukers)
  17. Hows this trimetal? http://www.hookahshop.co.uk/alam-misr-tri-metal-by-khalil-mamoon-blue-32-inch-p-1378.html
  18. My exams are finally over and ive decided to buy a new hookah, i have an 'AGER' one from dubai atm which smokes decently but its getting quite old, and the screwable parts are getting rusted. Im looking to buy a KM most probably, i like big hookahs and probably wont get something small like a bambino or qt. Can anyone give me any recommendations? im willing to spend about £50-£60($100 usd) on it.
  19. [quote name='Cheng' date='13 April 2010 - 08:43 AM' timestamp='1271169837' post='463416'] I got my order through from John today, it was the speediest shit ever!!! It was sent out on the 8th and I got it this morning (13th). So thanks John Anyways, I never smoke Tangiers before, I got (both Lucid) Horchata and maraschino cherry. Question is: Do I need to acclimate? I know that your not supposed to with Lucid, but my cherry smells a bit burnt with a hint of burning. I got both in plastic tubs now, the lids are off resting in my room. What are the ideal conditions for acclimating Tangiers? warm? cold? I have a small window opened too, should it be close or open? Also I am a cig smoker, is it a bad idea to smoke cigs in the same room that im acclimating my shisha? If anyone who smokes Tangiers who is also from the UK like me, please post in here, I would like to hear your thoughts about this. Hope you guys can help me out here, im a total noob with Tangiers P.s. I am now a proud owner of the HJ Allien bowl P.p.s. My hot plate broke again! It wont turn on, does this happen a lot when using them to light up coals? [/quote] Hey! Finally another one in the UK who has Tangiers! i ordered lucid twice before and haven't had to acclimate it on both instances. If it smells abit off, or soy saucy, then you will need to acclimate it. Even my Noir K cherry i smoked straight out the packaging. I think some flavours need aclimating(brambleberry) and some dont(k cherry). im afraid i cant answer your cig question as i dont have any clue about that ! From what i remember, you should leave it open for a few hours at room temperature, if it still smells really bad/smokes awful, you need to do the 4/20 method. someone correct me if im wrong, but you pu tit for 4 hours in the freezer and then 20 hours at room temperature in your room. Anyway! Hope you enjoy it! Feel free to PM me if need be!

  21. http://puffweb.com/e-hookah-review/ There is a review here? Not sure if its anything to go by though, could be marketing!
  22. Woah sounds nice! Never heard of it though, wheres it from? did you get it in a box? looks like the packaging that fake AF use
  23. TBH i hate soex. i cant stand it, i had one hydro flavour, some berry or something. its quite nice, but with most herbal flavours it tends to loose flavour fairly quickly!
  24. Hookah Starter Get a small hand hoover thing. add a hookah pipe to the end,turn on, done? I must admit though, the intro was good!
