If its washable put lime juice thru it. If not Blow thru it 5-10 times and then clean out ur entire pipe with lime juice and hot water then cold water. Load up the bowl and go easy on the coal. Take a few hits and see if you notice the flavor.

Nahkla can be hard to get smoking right, it takes some babaying with your heat management.

I would start out not using too many coals. it's dry so it burns faster than other tobacco. But you didn't sya anything about a hrash taste so maybe your not burning it. Also, clean out your hookah, and smell your hose. Tastes from previous sessions could be stuck in there, lessening the taste of the mint. Mint is not prnounced as much as fruit flavors, it's more of a feeling in your mouth. There is flavor, but wiht Nahkla mint ive noticed more cooling than flavor.

Sorry didn't know you were using nakhla.....as for Zensilk Im not sure how you smoke nakhla, but In my case it loves ALOT of heat. Im talking 2 and a half coals or so to get it going then MAYBE take one off. But make sure you take each part of the shisha and sprinkle it in ur hands good, make it thin and stringy if you know what I mean.

It does take alot of heat once you get it going, but adding too much first will burn it to a crisp because of it's dryness.

Ive only used it once with fruit mix before, also i used 2 quick lites and when removing the nakhla it seemed poretty burnt except a bit at bottom...

Break the coal in half...then Light it and put it on the sides of the bowl. Add one more half after 10mins, should be perfect!
