The one compiled WYTEBOY review thread

[wyteboy]

here you go Cypress   THIS IS EVERY REVIEW I HAVE DONE THAT IS WORTH REAING OR PROVIDES NEW INFO ON A FLAVOR...EVERY REVIEW I DO FROM NOW ON WILL BE IN THIS THREAD.
[b]Nakhla Strawberry[/b]
a) Ok so like I reported before, a TON of little tiny stems...greasy sticky but pretty wet...seems good, like I know any better anyway?  Smell - nothign like strawberries....VERY fruity and a good smell to it, but doesn't smell like strawberries really.
used 2 halves of vivi wood natural coals, one on each side of the bowl.
c) given all the bad reviews on nahkla, the smoke was surprisingly pretty smooth, even for these pretty virgin lungs.  The smoke itself was sort of flavorful, kinda fruity but again nothign like strawberries per se...Smoke density was pretty good, was a decent smoke...I dunno if it was my setup or what but I barely tasted the fruit which is the only real reason I smoke this stuff so I doubt I will be smoking it again.  Cypress, you ready to get 240g? LOL!
 
[b]ALWAHA APRICOT[/b]
a) I dunno if I was better at getting the coals hot or packing the bowl or what, but this was a much better smoke.  First off, also very wet, same greasy stickiness feel, but nowhere NEAR the # of stems. Still more I imagine than in the premium stuff, but was better.  Smelled good, but again simply very fruity - not really like APRICOTS.  Set up the bowl and began to smoke it with my friend...
WHOA, smoke density!  This smoke was MUCH thicker and smoother than the nahkla. I orginally though the nahkla was smooth and it wasnt bad, but the alwaha smoke was definitely better!  Except the flavor....again not very much. A fruity sort of taste to the smoke, but nothing that detectable and certainly nothing like apricots per se....
I don't know if this is because of my bowl where I can put SUCH little maaseel...I can't even really describe how little was in the bowl...take like the TINIEST pinch of it between your thumb and finger and then cut that in half, that's what i put in my bowl basically...
EIther way, I do not think I'd smoke either of these again.  I still have the alwaha coconut and the 5-star mix (this i have heard great things about so I am excited to smoke it) and after that it will be all Cypress-samples for me while I refine my hookah pallate with some HH and some AF, I absolutely cannot wait!
One other thing, on both bowls when I lifted the foil there was some SERIOUS maassel burnage/stuckage to the underneath of the foil...unavoidable with this bowl and I am surprised both smokes were as smooth as they were with as much of the stuff that was charred on the foil...I guess this could affect the flavor too, but nonetheless I think I ahve realized why these two brands are not widely considered to be very good....
Thoughts on my reviews? SOrry to be so longwinded, just excited I am finally reviewing something!  The good hookah is expected to arrive on Thursday so I am going to take a break from it tomorrow (yes I know, I just got it, but hey!) and then Friday/Saturday I will light up the other two alwaha bowls and see what they do for me...After those, it's all Cypress-ville and I can't wait!
Please give me any input on what I did, or whether you have had similar (or more importantly,) dissimilar experiences with these two brands/flavors...
God I love this forum!!
[b]Alwaha Coconut[/b]....sticky, greasy wet again, seemed pretty wet to me.  Still a little too clumpy like the nahkla, i wonder if that is causing the foil burn.  I am very interested to see the cut of the AF HH and Romman that I will be getting to see how greatly it differs...I imagine finer cuts also make it much easier to avoid foil burn.  The coconut taste was there but again way too subtle for my liking!  Smoke density was VERY solid and the buzz was REALLY there, def the most yet.  Still, not enough fruit taste for my liking...Also burned some of the ma'assel but I didn't feel it in the smoke, I just realized it when I peeled it off.
[b]Nahkla strawberry[/b] - tried this again just to see if the new hookah made a difference.  Same experience. Decent density not as good as the alwaha, fruit taste slight, smoke smoothness was ok....eh.
I would not smoke either of these again I do not think...I just hope its the stuff and not MY setup.  Poking holes I have realized is a big pain in the a$$ as is foil sag...any tips on avoiding that?
Still not sure about a hole pattern...I sort of just poke a TON of randomly placed small holes...like the size of the head of a toothpick small - is that TOO small by chance?
[b]Alwaha Apricot[/b]-
Smoke density got pretty good and I had several decent hits...flavor was better this time! not a TON TON better, but a little better.  I am having trouble having the bowls only last about 20-30 mins, is that about right?
Buzz was pretty dam strong this time too...about the same as the coconut I had the other night.  was smooth smoke too. I am more pleased with this smoke than I prob have been with any other so far...I used long strands only this time and packed the bowl about 1/2 way or maybe even a little less but I really wanted to avoid the ma'assel burn on the foil.
[b]Alwaha 5-star w/vivi[/b]  = best tasting by far yet that I have smoked.  I used 2 1/2 pieces of the lemon wood, one on each side. smoke density was awesome, flavor is best yet, but still not what I was looking to get..still solid though.  Buzz is definitely good out of this smoke - I see why ppl like this product from alwaha very much.  I am beginning to think my place in LA just uses real premium ma'assel and that is why I am real used to the very fruity, very good tasting stuff...satisfied with this smoke, but not REALLY happy.  Also this maassel is by far the WETTEST, the ziploc i have this stuff in as a whole puddle at the bottom from all the stuff that maassel is sitting in...
[b]Alwaha 5-star w/3kings[/b] =
So I tried one 3king coal...few things first...
1) this coal produced MUCH less ash than the lemon wood and the vivi wood which I like a lot, was much cleaner on the bowl...
2) initially, I was LOVING this coal. density of the smoke was OUTSTANDING, flavor was better this time than with the lemon wood...who here uses the 3kings consistently and who here HATES them?
Ok...so the first 10-15 mins was OUTSTANDINdG...then it took a turn for the worse....maybe the holes were too big? maybe I didn't put enough in the bowl? but either way, I think it got too hot and the stuff started to burn...the smoke got a little harsh and then started to taste gross, either like burnt maassel or like the charcol itself, I am not sure which...
Any thoughts?
Either way this was a much better smoke.....however,  I am feeling a little discouraged.  I am doubting my ability to put together a great setup and a great smoking session...not sure if it's the maassel or the charcoal or the holes...so far the smoking sessions have not been up to par with why I have enjoyed myself so much in the past...
[b]HH Pineapple -[/b]
Wow. whoa. yikes. yum. I am speechless   Boo nakhla and the alwaha I have smoked.  the smoothness and density of this smoke was unreal to me, I couldn't believe it. Flavor was really good.  From the reviews I had read I expected this to taste like  a bite of pineapple.  It didn't really, but still tasted extremely good with a good strong fruit taste.  I think I made the holes a bit too big so some ash got in, I'll rate this an 8.5 right now, but it's probably a 10 and the -1.5 is my own fault.
I didn't think it could get better...then I smoked the
[b]HH MELON[/b].  Oh dear sweet god of any religion.  The taste was AMAZING.  This literally did taste like cantaloupe. like..um..am I EATING this fruit right now?  Density and smoothness were incredible.  Absolute 10 and definitely something I will keep for myself as a tub of 250g whenver I decide to buy my own ma'assel.  SUch a relaxing and good smoke!
Going to dinner, later tonight I am gonna smoke the Fumari Watermelon and the HH strawberry.  Yes that's 4 bowls in one day, but I am sharing them all with one other person each time so isn't that like only smoking 2 bowls myself?  Plus like I said, i have Friday night as my last night this week to smoke before the lady comes and then I won't be able to smoke for like a week so gotta try as many flavors as possible now, right?!?!   Can't wait for later, I have been DYING to try the fumari watermelon
[b]Fumari Watermelon[/b] - holy crap. does this stuff taste AMAZING. man. great smoke, very intense as I was warned. a  little strong on the smoke side for these lungs but nonetheless a great smoke with a FANTASTIC flavor and a decent, not too much buzz.  Absolutely the best smoke yet and would be in my permanent collection.
[b]HH strawberry[/b] - maybe it was just cause I was so happy with the fumari but this was a bit of a let down.  very smooth smoke, decent strawberry taste to it but nothing phenomenal or great.
[b]AF Cherry[/b]. THANK YOU CYPRESS, good god do I love AF.  The cut was more like Alwaha than it is like HH which was so fine and dry, unlike any other maassel I have seen.  This smoked SO well for about 40-45 minutes with a phenomenal smoothness and not necessarily a BOLD cherry flavor but more of a slight cherry flavor with a VERY simple just fruity taste that was very good.  It smelled however a ton like grenadine or those cherries at bars.  This smoke was amazing.  Just as good as the fumari watermelon but for very different reasons.  This was minimal to zero buzz, very relaxing, very smooth, just amazing.
[b]AF Coconut[/b] - It was good. Really smooth smoke..I am beginning to think though I may not like smoking coconut as much as I like eating it...Not sure and I definitely have enough left to smoke another bowl or two of it after I am done with everything else.
For now I would rate this a 7-7.5 for good smoothness, smoke density (I used 2 1/2 lemon wood coal pieces, still not as good as the 3 kings I think but I need to use them sometime, right?), and also a pretty solid coconut flavor.  However, I can't see myself smoking this instead of the hh melon fumari watermelon or af cherry so far, so i prob wouldnt keep this around constantly....
[b]AF Plum[/b] -
First off, hey Cypress I don't know if you agree but this tastes NOTHING like it smells....I was so excited by the smell but disappointed by the taste...I used one whole 3king (btw, zero charcoal taste i think), and hung it off the edge and moved it around....It didn't really "taste" that much, it was almost sort of tasteless with just kind of fruit undertones....
Cypress do you agree with this assessment?  That being said, had by far the most INCREDIBLE smoke density.  omg, the smoke was so white and so thick, it was like hard not to smile while exhaling!  I will definitely give this a resmoke to try again, but I as of now would not keep this permanently....it didn't have enough taste for me.  I am immediately going to load the fumari white peach in now and will post a review of that shortly.  I rate this smoke a 7, only that high because of the great density of the smoke, but as for taste this is probably like a 3 or 4....Cypress, thoughts?  Fumari white peach coming soon....
[b]AF Cola[/b] -
OK this is the weirdest smoke ever, very interesting.
Keep in mind I originally told Cypress he probably didn't need to send the Cola as I didn't have much interest in trying it, but he insisted anyway and boy am I glad he did.
I was mentally a little reserved in trying it.  This ma'assell tastes like coke-air.  Imagine jsut what you think, like what breathing in air that tastes like coca cola would taste like?  That's what it is.  That and there is almost a carbonation-bubbly sort of sensation at the back of the throat, just like you're drinking it...
Very interesting. For those who like cola or really like a cola maassel, I would probably give this a big 9 05 9.5 or something.  For me, I will enjoy another time when I am in a weird mood smoking the rest of this Cypress samples for sure, but I don't think I would buy this.
Smoke density and thickness was OUTSTANDING!  Smelled very good too!
Also, a little piece of the maassel slipped through the hole in the bowl and I guess went through the stem and into the water...this happen to anyone ever? is it bad?
I may quit for the night or I may go off the edge and go for some AF grape or some HH margarita before the night is over
[b]HH Margarita[/b] -
1 word: YUCK.  Cypress, I hope you don't take this the wrong way or that I am any less appreciative in any way at all for what you have sent me.
OK, the smell....BOOM!  I smelled the container and it smelled EXACTLY like a good stiff 'rita should.  It smelled just like a margarita you'd get and it comes to you and you take a big whiff. It's a 80 percent tequila, 20 percent sweet/sour mix smell...I was excited by the smell.
I packed the bowl and decided on a 3king, because the lemon wood I used on the AF Cola smoked real well, I wanted to go back to the 3king and see.
omg EWWWWWWWW.  The first 2-3 hits were ok, not great but sort of tasted lemony-limey, and then it was like BAM, burnt a$$.  Tasted like someone lit a margarita on fire and served it to your charred.   I immediately thought maybe the coal was too hot or maybe Math was right after all about the gross taste of 3 kings...I took off the coal and checked the bowl, completely fresh, no char or burning of the ma'assel at all....SO I washed the 3kings out and put on a fresh lemon wood piece, this could be the true coal test I was looking for!  Still, so disgusting.  It just tasted harsh and not good.  Every hit I was having to hold in to avoid from coughing and I didn't like the taste of it either.  To give a different perspective, a friend of mine is a big grass smoker and a big tequila drinker and he loved it.  He liked it better than the HH pineapple that we smoked a week ago.
Maybe I have really virgin lungs (as i have stated) or maybe this smoke just wasn't what I expected or would like, but it definitely wasn't that flavorful and it was really harsh...with the 3kings the foil was VERY "oxidized" where the coal, moreso than it was with the Cola flavor, but even with the Cola flavor the taste was fine throughout.
I understand Nahkla mixed fruit has exclusive rights to a 1 out of 10 so I would give this a 2 out of 10.  I am not a big fan of grapes but everyone on here raves about the AF grape and Cypress was kind enough to send me some of that too, so if it is as refreshing as everyone says then it will be a nice change tomorrow morning before I go to work.  THen it's a 3-4 day self-imposed break from the hookah!
[b]Review AF Grape[/b]:
Used a 3kings and got a great smoke.  My friend also agreed that he doesnt think there was any charcoal or ash taste to the smoke whatsoever.  To finish this coal debate, before I try anything else I am going to smoke af grape next but with a vivi wood coal.  This will either be tomorrow morning or sometime next week.
This smelled real good, but not very natural.  Like grape jolly rancher smell but mixed with a chemical kind of.  It tasted good too but not overpowering grape.  Sort of like....think of the aftertaste in your mouth after eating a grape blowpop or lollipop.  The flavor of that aftertaste in your mouth is kind of like the flavor of this ma'assel.  Nose hits really reveal the grape flavor.
I nejoyed this smoke very much even though I am not a huge grape fan so that tells you something!   The smoke density was once again outstanding (come to apprecaite this from AF) and the buzz was not too heavy at all, barely there.
I think that's it...if you are a grape fan, then TRY THIS! I rate it a solid 8.5 out of 10 and will strongly think about keeping it around...I think that's all...have a great Saturday guys! 
[b]AF Cherry[/b]
I have reviewed this previously so I will try to be brief.  Typical AF, nice cut, very few stems, wet but not too wet.  I rememberd loving this smoke immensely and now I remember why.  THis smoke was beautiful.  I followed Cypress' video and made my holes bigger and got an amazing smoke.  Gorgeous white clouds of smoke with an AMAZINGLY solid flavor, tasted very much like grenadine sort of.  Went awesome for a solid 40 mins with two ppl smoking.  This smoke is a 10.  Maybe a 9?  I don't know if I've experienced a 10 smoke?   This could be it though, I HIGHLY recommend this and AF Cherry WILL BE in my permanent collection.
[b]AF Melon[/b] - This smoke tastes almost exactly like it smells...sort of fruity, but no real discernible fruit flavor to it.  Glorious clouds of smoke I have come to just love from AF, but the flavor of this smoke may leave a bit to be desired...
[b]Romman Sweet Melon[/b] - Smoked this again...it was good and I could definitely taste the honeydew flavor.  A smooth smoke but never got quite as thick as I like.  I really like big, in your face flavor and the flavor of this is just too subtle for my liking
[b]Romman Rasperry[/b] - A very good raspberry flavor (which is what I was looking for), very sweet, good smoke.  I'd rate this about a 8.  I would absolutely smoke this again but probably not keep this on hand.
[b]Romman Pineapple[/b] - This is sort of a mix of 2 reviews.  I think most know the cut of Romman, if not tell me and I can describe it.  Briefly it's similar to AF but less wet basically....Anyway, I lit this up twice, first briefly and then later on after trying the other flavors.  Initially, I wasn't expecting much since I had read King Mos review...But it was EXTREMELY enjoyable.  I smoked with 1.5 3kings.  It doesn't taste like a natural pineapple, but more maybe like the pineapply syrup sort of that is in the Dole cans....However, that is not a knock.  The smoke was sweet and smooth and great! I would have rated it a 9 maybe...When I lit it later I was smoke with the nour (review of the nour in general at the end) and the smoke wasn't as good..not sure if it's cause of the coal or anything, but I just wasn't enjoying it much.  Maybe it's cause it was my 4th bowl and I was already playing in pain at the beginning of the night, lol!  However, overall I would give this a 7.5 or so and encourage anyone looking for a pineapple to at least give this a try.
[b]Romman Cherry[/b] - this smoke was good...I am in love with the AF cherry as you know but I was excited to try a different cherry.  The AF cherry isn't necessarily a "natural ripe cherry" flavor but more like the taste of grenadine or bar cherries...This Romman I think should be called "black cherry."  It wasn't really sweet, it had a cherry-ish flavor, but one that I can really best describe as sort of the flavor of a Black Cherry soda or something.  It was good, i'd almost say very good depending on personal taste.  I'd give this a 6.5/7, but could see someone else giving it like an 8 or something
[b]Romman Strawberry[/b]:
MAN does this stuff smell AMAZING. it smells like fresh strawberry juice...Unfortunately, I'm not sure the taste matches...I agree with Math (and whoever said this about the sweet melon), but you have to smoke through a bit of EH-ness to get to the good stuff.  Since I don't like the flavor of smoke, I look for hookah flavors that just blast me with flavor...Fumari Watermelon and white peach, AF cherry and to some extent the AF grape as well....
I was sooo looking forward to the straw, maybe I had too high expectations. It got going OK, not phenomenal with a sort of strawberry-sweetness as an aftertaste...This is also something I will make sure to smoke a 2nd time with the nour coal before judging...just a matter of when I buy the nour
I give the Peach and the Strawberry both about a 5.5-6, but I am open minded and hopeful about when I smoke these again. 
[b]GS AF esk apple[/b]:
1st off this stuff doesn't really smell like apples...I'm not sure it smells specifically like anything.  This ma'assel was more "sticky" than it is "wet" which is different from most AF I am used to....
OK...well how to describe this smoke? First off INCREDIBLY smooth, BURSTING with flavor, amazing....IF you like a lighter apple, sort of an almost champagne-y type hint of a flavor...
Like peach, I have sort of liked apple flavor smokes in my past but not loved them...This flavor was GREAT for what it is, but not positive if it is a flavor I would choose to smoke over the Fumari or the AF grape/cherry which I love....I smoked with 1.5 3kings since I was smoking inside my own apt.
Like the Romman, I will resmoke this with nour (if i have enough left), but will give it at least 1-2 more smokes before deciding if it is a flavor I want to be able to always have on hand.  I will smoke the AF straw and the GS AF straw sometime between tomorrow night and Saturday, along with hopefully a resmoke of the Romman and this gs esk apple as well, hopefully all before the gf comes on Sunday
This smoke is an absolute 10 without a doubt for those who love lighter apple fruity flavors...For me, right now, it's an 8.  If the strawberry flavors are any as good of a flavor as this smoke was, they are going to be keepers without a doubt!  Happy smoking!
[b]AF Straw is AMAZING[/b]. 
It was sooo smooth, so good, SO full of strawberry flavor goodness.  I warn you though, if you don't like really fruit flavor or sweet flavor, you won't like this.  It is very sweet almost like strawberry juice.  I absolutely completely give this a 10 and recommend ANYONE who wants a good strawberry, to try this.  This is ABSOLUTELY a forever keeper in my book.
[b]GS AF Straw[/b] - just about as excellently amazing as the AF Straw, except a little less sweet and a little less fruit, just a SLIGHT difference in these two. I would give this like a 9...However, I am definitely resmoking it again soon to make sure.  Since I won't need to keep two strawberries on hand, I will end up picking between these two....Unless the resmoke of Romman Strawberry blows me away, which it very well could on the next smoke - I am open minded
[b]Romman Peach[/b] -
Others have mentioned with Romman that sometimes you have to smoke "through" the first 10mins or so before getting to the good stuff...because I hate most smoking but I love the fruity taste of hookah, this makes it a bit unpleasureable for me with this brand since I like to conserve/enjoy my lung space as much as possible
I could see how some would absolutely LOVE the Romman peach.  However, I don't think it's for me, I much prefer the Fumari White Peach, even if it not as "sweet" sorta speak as a ripe peach.  The romman smells amazing while smoking, but it doesn't really taste like it smells.  It IS a smooth smoke, but I don't find the flavor to be as enjoyable as the Fumari or AFs...It is a sort of softer smoke.  I don't mind softer smokes, I find the AF to be a sort of soft, soothing smoke.  This Romman is peachy, but not necessarily extremely flavorful and overall, while it does taste peachy, it is not the peach flavor for me.
I could how somone could give this a 8.5-10 if it appeases their personal loves or preferences, but for me I'd have to give it a 7.5 for its smoothness AND nice flavor, like I said it's just not my personal thing. 
Just smoked a mix of gs af esk apple and af strawberry.  Probable 70-30 apple to strawberry ratio...Was pretty good.  The apple was you know if a lighter, sweet but crisp flavor while the strawberry tends to be sweeter and a little sugary/candyish more...so more the apple flavor came through with a very nice sweet/sugar sort of strawberry hint of aftertaste and then of each hit.  A VERY nice mix I recommend everyone try.  I still probably prefer each on their own better but I definitely recommend mixing GS AF ESK APPLE with AF Strawberry.
[b]AF Pineapple[/b] -
Tobacco: fakher cut, wet, small pieces, easy to use. The smell is rather strange, a hint of pineapple with a hint of some type of medicine, not too exciting.
Smoke: the smoke in this one is good, as expected with fakher whose smoke is the richest. The only problem is the taste. It is just not good. It tastes of something that perhaps resembles pineapple, but also a medicine. The unappealing smell reflects in the taste. It is smokeable, and you do get rich smoke with a taste, but the taste itself is not a nice taste.
Overall: this is one of the weaker fakher flavours. Not in terms of strength, but the taste itself is not nice, and is not what I would describe as pineapple. It is smokeable though, but not nice. I dont recommend it. [b]5[/b]
[b]AF Banana - [/b]Just tried the banana as well...Alen I can see why you didn't really like either of these flavors that much.
The smoke was fun as it always is with AF, but the taste was just off....Dunno what it tasted like to be honest, I can't really describe it, but it's definitely NOT bananas...
[b]Habibi Grape[/b] -- This is a hard one to describe the texture of...it's like alwaha in pieces and texture, soaked almost like AF but not AS soaked but wetter than Alwaha and not "greasy sticky" like alwaha...It tasted sort of um.....how to describe it?  Like grapes, but not.  The picture on the box has green and red grapes and imagine a flavor that combined the two, but then was a little bit off....The smoke was extremely thick, got going real good. Requires less heat than AF and smoked well.  I think some people could enjoy this flavor, but I didn't really too much.  I give it a 6.
[b]Habibi Apple[/b] - Keeping in mind that I am real sensitive to liquorice flavors and not that fond of them...This stuff smelled VERY licoricery to begin with and I was nervous.  The taste is probably a 50/50 split taste of a nice mellow apple flavor and licorice.  Again, I think lots of people could enjoy this but not really my thing.
[b]Fumari White Peach[/b] - My #2 smoke.  A great, outstanding, can't-praise-enough flavor that is unique and phenomenal!  Tastes like a peach 2 days away from being ripe. A great tart, yet sweet Peachy flavor that is simply amazing. TRY IT!  10 score!

[cypress]

Good Job. Now it all makes sense.

[alen]

good work

[wyteboy]

Just wanted to post a brief review of two flavors I have smoked before.  Today I got the Nour coal in from HookahShisha and resmoked AF Straw and GS AF Straw.  I can say that both of these taste even MORE fantastic with the nour than any other coal.  I also used a steel screen and 3 small pieces of nour that totally covered the bowl to really get it going. 
If you are going to smoke either of these flavors, and they taste pretty much teh same, I HIGHLY recommend the AF Straw.
I am outta here starting Monday I believe (though it's still a bit up in the air) and then I will be on pretty sparingly, just every so often throughout July/Aug.  I am getting pretty tired of the Straw since it's all I've had to smoke for awhile...STILL waiting on the af grape/al-amir strawberry from the hookah.com.  I hope it gets here before the weekend is over!

[Seandoo]

Excellent compilation! I was able to pinpoint most of my next shipment
of shisha on your review to see if there was anything good to say about
them so I know what to expect...this is definately a bookmark for
future reference.

[cypress]

Yo Whyteboy, what you should do in you time away, is to write any more
reviews on Word and just save them for when you do come back. That way
your reviews will still be fresh when you come back. The only thing try
the smoke several ways and post the reveiw that ended up being the
better tasting smoke for you. ie screen, coals, ice or no ice ect. 

[Seandoo]

You know what? I believe you're pretty dead on when saying Nakhla Mixed Fruit has exclusive rights to a 1 out of 10  =)

[wyteboy]

Hey Sean, when you put in your next order of ma'assel, post what ya buy since I am curious what my reviews led you to
I think I have decided, and again based on personal preferences, the only ma'assels worth keeping around on hand at all times are:
Fumari: Watermelon, White Peach
GS AF ESK apple and regular AF Grape
Honorable mention: AF Strawberry, HH Pineapple, HH Melon, Romman Raspberry
Flavors I still want to try: Regular AF Apple for sure (will be looking to maybe get a sample from someone on here in Aug/Sept if possible ) and also maybe GS AF Grape, but not sure about that.
 
I am hoping now to pick some of both AF up while I am in CA.  sweeet

[wyteboy]

don't know how I forgot AF Cherry on that list of stuff to keep....
Figured I'd post a good mix I smoked the other night at the hookah cafe  pineapple/raspberry/coconut.  Very tropical sort of, and VERY good!!  I recommend it to anyone
SeanDoo, you ever order a ton of ma'assel? Whaddya get?
Take care guys,
J

REVIEW: "REGULAR AF APPLE"
So the ma'assel mystery box I bought DID turn out to be regular normal AF Apple, not bahraini. PHEW!
Here is the review:
This ma'assel if not really a very strong, potent flavor, so like the AF Grape or the Cherry where it realyl slaps you in the face "THIS IS WHAT I AM!."  I usually perfer that; however, I really enjoyed this smoke.  This smoke is a very subtle, sweet, but mild almost delicate appley-sweet smoke.  My friend and I smoked the bowl for almost an hour and even relit nour coals to get it going again!  Usually I do not really LOVE a smoke like this, but something about it was just very relaxing, calming, I could smoke it for like 2 hours, something I couldn't do with the Grape, let's say.  Now given my own personal preference, it could have been a LITTLE bit more flavorful and I would have possibly given this a 9.5, however, I'll give it a very, very solid 8.5/10 smoke and recommend it to anyone. I don't even generally like apple flavored stuff and have not enjoyed apple-hookah in the past, but I really, really enjoyed this smoke!

[cypress]

Sounds good. 

[wyteboy]

I will have to revise my review on AF Cherry and knock it down a bit, say from a 9 to an 8.  Lately I have noticed more of a floral/odd sort of an aftertaste with my AF Cherry smoke, not sure why.
