Ugh, Bad Batch Of Starbuzz


Recommended Posts

I was so excited to get my new hookahcompany order in, primarily because of the peach Starbuzz I ordered. Fired up a bowl after all the necessary preparations (yes, including stirring it thoroughly tongue.gif), took a few hits, and nearly yakked all over the floor. It's worse than if you simply ate a cup of sugar, this stuff takes up residence in your sinuses and doesn't want to go away.

My question - who do I go to to get a replacement tub? If it were something cheap like AW I wouldn't care, but I spent $20 on stuff that's unsmokable sad.gif

I got a can of kiwi strawberry with many, many stems.


This is how i remember by Kiwi Strawberry. And it was not the greatest taste either... in fact the bin landed up enjoying allmost all of it.

I guess like so many things in life... it's an aquired tasted.

i have had bad batches of starbuzz as of late. my friend bought guava it was so damn shitty i almost threw up upon the 2nd round. the peach we had for not even that long went to shit quick and wildberry mint as well. the sweet melon was good, but it had a funky taste 2 it. is it just me or quality control at SB has gone 2 the shits. i havent been enjoying hookah these past few months cuz everything i smoke has been dissapointing. its to the point where i dont see myself smoking at all anymore. im gonna fire up a batch of tangiers blueberry 2nite after a hookah deep cleaning. hope it goes well im tired of smoking sub par stuff i spend money on.

Did you acclimate it? And for atleast 5 hours?

Tell me about it. I made a post like 2 months ago about their quality control being crap for what we pay. You would think they would have it down to a science by now. Obviously they do not.

Well Im a fumaris fan, about 80 percent of their stuff I love. Tried smileys and really like that too. Just tried 3 flavors of starbuzz and I LOVE it! Great flavor and it lasts through the whole bowl. Got peach and its AWESOME! Pumpkin Pie is one of my all time favorites....and tropical punch which I dont care for.

You might have got lucky, maybe with an older batch, But I think you missed the point?

Looks like Starbuzz have been pumping out crapola rather than the high quality.
And for the price I would be tapping on Starbuzz's door. DIRECT.

Awright, everyone who's having problems with their SB being crap, send a polite but firm request that they up their quality control... or else wink.gif

Yeah, I got a different batch of X on the Beach. It's not super bad, but not what I was expecting. The taste and color are different from what I'd used earlier.

Peach is one of my favorites. Scalliwag's too. I would bet a bad batch or can. Let us know.
