lokixragnarok Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I have to say thank you to Cypress first of all for his informative video. And what kind of mixes do you like? I havent tried any at all... will you hook me up with some mixes of yours? Thank you Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyteboy Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I haven't mixed yet, but once I get my main staple of 3-4 flavors, I plan to mix constantly. I really want to try GS AF esk Apple/ with AF Strawberry, Strawberry/AF Grape and Fumari Watermelon/ White Peach. I know a lot of people, including ashan on this site, love Orange/Cola.

mikem Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 i like cherry cola, not an innovative mixture but it is good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I like to keep Al Waha Cola and Vanilla on hand at all times to mix. These pretty much go well with any other flavor out there. I guess my favorites would have to be Vanilla mixed with Orange. Al Waha orange is typically a pretty strong flavor, and the vanilla tones it down well.

lokixragnarok Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 well I ordered 3 flavors from fumari, watermelon, canteloupe melon, kiwi and sour apple... samplers of course! just want to try if any of them I like I will update you guys on them. I should have tried white peach, I've read posts where people claim to have liked it a lot!!! but one doode gave a 10 to watermelon so I'm glad I got that. I also have AF cherry and strawberry... I've mixed those two before... nothing special... it doesn't really blend into a noticible StrawCherry, and I haven't yet learned how to pack a bowl and regulate coal heat yet... so I wish to accomplish that before my fumari flavors get to me b/c I don't wanna smoke burnt ass tobacco rather than good evaporated moisture. I've read some helpful posts here and there in this forum, I love this place... no one here is an ass!@#$ and people actually try to help out... thanx a lot guys!

HooKendo Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Orange cappuccino anyone? The orange gives a nice, fresh finish to the much heavier cappuccino. Muy excellente! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afrdzak Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 These 2 mixes are good lemon & mint cola & mint I tried banana & coconut - didn't like that too much to each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyteboy Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 hey lokix, I agree compeltely. usually on a forum ther is an a$$ or two, but not here. eveyone loves to be friendly, help out, even take the time to trade! i love af straw and af cherry both on their own but have never tried to mix it...you should definitely try the fumari white peach if you get a chance, but the watermelon is amazing. you'll find plenty of tips on here in terms of hole sizes and patterns that work for different people to help regulate the heat depending on the coal being used...you'll have to try for yourself but read aroubd, you'll find my latest successful pattern as well as NERVs pattern too....good luck and PM with any questions! I haven't really mixed yet but I bet af straw and gs af esk apple would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mo Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I occasionally go with a cherry and apple mix. Comes out pretty good. Personally I don't like mixes and tend to avoid them, you tend to get a compensated flavour, rather than an improved one. What I mean by this is that You'll do the sum 1+1 and end up with 1.7 If you really want to feel a nice mix, then perhaps have 2 shishas running with two flavours, and take in both hoses at the same time or have one after the other. Otherwise, stick to the pure flavours, and you'll smoke it how it's meant to be smoked. perhaps this is a reason why 'mixed fruit' flavour m3assal is always a disappointment and never quite hits the spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alen Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 or buy that double bowl from smokinghookah.com i dont know if its ok but tobbsman said that its kinda small and i think he has made one of his own-when do you start the production tobbs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lytic Cycle Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Watermelon and mango are my favorite mix at the moment, but I think I'll try some of the mixes that people have suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sariél Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Plum/Cappucino Lemon/Mint (must be AF, the sultan mint tasted like ben gay to me) Lemon/rose Arc Sous/ AF Gold Apple anytime I would have put Vanilla in, I now use Caramel; similar taste, but a bit stronger and every now and then I take a pinch of 7 or 8 flavors and put them in the bowl without mixing for a kaleidoscope effect. Your mileage may vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypress Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I remembered that I tried Fumari Watermelon and White Peach and it came out pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alen Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 just remember when ppl talking about double apple- i had a favorit some years ago(when i only could get nakhla up here -nakhla cherry + 20% el basha licorice it turned out really nice like a double cherry if you know what i mean -so if you got these two at home -give it a try alen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR Bubble Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Every time I fix a bowl, I have a little left over that I don't return to the bag. Instead I used to put them in a little zip-loc. After several weeks I would have different flavors collected in this bag and just smoke it. Too bad it always tasted toxic and I don't do it anymore. One mix I was impressed with was Nakhla lemon and vanilla. I'd say about 60% lemon and 4% vanilla. Almost like a key lime pie, only with lemon instead of lime.

Vlax Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 My mixes are AW coffe and HH vanilla... came out really good. HH orange and vanilla... i liked it, but I wasn't what I was hoping for which was like an orange sherbert. And my all time fav at the moment is Layalina strawberry and banana and HH vanilla I was tring for something like a banana split but got something close, but I think the taste is far better then what I was hoping for. All 3 flavors are mixed in equal parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The French Are People Too Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I love blending tobaccos (both for the hookah and for the common tobacco pipe), and I'm a big fan of the following blends:I've been smoking a lot of this of late. I blend Al-Waha Rose and Al-Waha Honey, at about 20% Rose to 80% Honey. This blend provides a very pleasant flavor that that I like to describe as "sweet rose". It seems to appeal to a lot of my female hookah buddies, and a friend of mine referred to it as "candy-like".A derivative of the first blend is 20% Rose to 70% Honey to 10% Mint, all of which use Al-Waha. This combination gives the same sweet rosy flavor, with just a hint of minty freshness.I also like Hookah-Hookah Cavendish blended with Al-Waha Rose, also at about 80% Cavendish to 20% Rose. Al-Waha's product is at times very strongly flavored (especially the Mint), and it's nice to blend in something that makes it a bit less overpowering. The Cavendish is good for this, though I'm a bit biased in its favor due to my enjoyment of the occasional pipe of traditional (at least from an American point of view) tobacco. I heart my Meerschaum!Another favorite is a blend of Hookah-Hookah Vanilla with Al-Waha Coffee, at about 50% Vanilla to 50% Coffee. This one's very tasty in my opinion, and makes for a very nice evening smoke.Unfortunately, my choices of brands and flavors are somewhat limited to what the local stores carry. I'm fortunate enough to live in a town with a few great local stores that cater to folks from the Middle East, but all they carry is Nakhla and over-priced hookahs. The local headshop carries both Al-Waha and Hookah-Hookah brands, with a pretty decent selection of flavors to boot. (Time for a shameless plug) I highly recommend anybody in the Bloomington, Indiana area check out Amused Clothing! It's a great store with all sorts of nice smoking supplies for both the hookah and....other smokables. The people who work there are very friendly and helpful, and I always enjoy my visits (end shameless plug).Hopefully in the future I’ll be able to afford to do some online shopping for the higher-quality brands that I keep hearing about on this forum, and I’ll be sure to post any good blends that I discover!

The French Are People Too Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I can't believe that I forgot this one: try Hookah-Hookah Hazelnut and Hookah-Hookah Vanilla in a 50-50 mix. Very nice indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
