Teufelhund Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 I ordered 3 Afzal / Soex flavors today - Afzal Aniseed, Afzal Apple and Soex Herbal (no tobacco) Apple. As soon as they get here I'll be posting reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teufelhund Posted September 9, 2005 Author Share Posted September 9, 2005 [quote name='afrdzak']where did you get it from?[/quote] I was looking on an old site where my dad used to buy pipe tobacco - ziggymart.com - and it was at the bottom of the tobacco page.

TafaaHtain Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Hi.I'm new to hookah and so I can offer a unique perspective on this. Now, I have only tried romman double apple and strawberry and afzal double apple so far.As far as flavor, duration and thickness the afzal is my favorite. There is so little about afzal on here, I'm dying to hear what you more experienced folks think. The romman was wonderful, but i love the molasses flavor and the superwetness of the afzal.Thanks for all the good stuff here, this forum really got me going quickly and well!

mushrat Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Man, old thread you got there... The reason you don't see many reviews it that its hard to find afzal. None of the main web sites carry it and my local tobacconist had ONE box of strawberry that I bought when I first got started and he's never gotten more. I was supposed to be getting some from a forum member but that fell through... So if you have some i'd say go for it and give us some reviews. Your opinion is just as good as any of ours. Oh and welcome to the forum, don't forget to read the "Read this" post tacked to the top, it has out general rules of conduct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahDuck Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 *shrug* I can see why he brought it back. He obviously really likes Afzal(his avatar), and its a vastly unknown brand.I think I tried some of their cherry once? Perhaps it was strawberry... hmm, it was a very long time ago.I would still like to see a full length, detailed, unbiased review of that SOEX stuff though.

mushrat Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I've had the strawberry. First Ma'asell besides Nakhla I ever tried. It was damn tasty...I recall it's finely choppend and VERY wet. Wonder if he can get me some more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TafaaHtain Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Yes, you're right, Afzal is extremely finely chopped and absolutely soaking. It seems, somehow, to fill the bowl with less tobacco than some others I've tried. Because it is so finely chopped, it is also very easy to pack the bowl uniformly. I know, I sound like a 15 year old in love or something...but I really do like it and really want to know how others experience it who have more..uh..experience.The large amount of molasses also gives the smoke an overall menthol-ish mouth-feel.Mushrat, if you're anywhere near Boston I'll drop some off in your mailbox...

great glavin Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 QC with afzal is garbage for the tiny 5 gram packs, i ordered afzal aniseed through ziggymart and cried my eyes out after i discovered it was the packet stuff and not the sweet 250 gram "solid meat" bag. I am a huge fan of their aniseed and ended up tossing it because i couldnt get it to smoke well like back in the old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 funny this post is back on top..i found my first baggie of afzal strawberry while cleaning out my hookah storage thingie... so i decided to smoke some tonight and see what i think of it now that ive broadened my horizons a bit. so...a rereview! good smoke density. not an overwhelming strawberry flavour, but not too bad. Not real sweet either. a good smoke especially ofr the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
