uselessdreamer1 Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Today im smokeing some Nakhla Double apple. Im gonna follow the way cypress did his reviews. Varibles: I smoked outside with my 30" Hookah. I had a screen and used golden coal. It was a nice breezy day...so no smoke rings! Tons of ice in the base. Aroma: When i opened the container i got a smell of apples. It smells very nice. Considering this IS my first double apple, this may not be as detailed as if i knew what other brands are like. I smell a little licorice in this but its not overbaring like others i have smelled. Cut/wettness: The cut is in small chunks with stems..i think. Its a beautiful deep red. This isnt juicy nor is it dry. i personally like nakhla cut and wetness. Taste/session: I liked this alot. It was very, well, applely. It tasted like it smelled and the aroma while smokeing was nice. I used one coal with a Screen to start out with. I had smoke pouring out. Some people on this board dont think nakhla smokes well but I do. later it died down so i threw on a coal i had waiting and it kicked up again. Got a little harsh but this is my second session...im not gonna post about the 1st... Session lasted about 45 min and was very enjoyable! Rating: Since this is my first 2apple i dont know what to compare to. It was a good tasting ma'assel and was very enjoyabloe. I like it, so ill smoke it! I would recomend this for hookah smokers old and new. Its a nice solid smoke with a good flavor. Btw this was out of box. I would rate this a good 6.5 or 7. compareing only to other nakhla flavors i have had. More to come!!! dun dun dun......!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypress Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Good review. Actually XX Apple Nakhla is IMHO one of their best flavors. On the other hand some of their other flavors that I have tasted didnt do anything for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uselessdreamer1 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Tonight after dinner decided to have a smoke....GO FIGURE! We decided on......Hookah Hookah Orange. From Maths sample he sent me and he high reccomends. Variables: Outside again. 2 goldens piggy back style with a screen and a windcover. Icey base as always. Aroma: When I first opened the container i was hit in the face with this citrus smell. Almost like a car air freshener. It smells well.... like an orange thats being peeled. Nice smell. Cut/Wetness: When i first saw this I was shocked. Its so finely cut, Its almost like a paste. good and wet, but not excessive. It was an intresting thing to put in the head! Taste/session:Well it tastes like it smells... orangey. Took a few minutes to get it going, but when it did it smoked. NOW back to the taste. It had this after taste like sh*t. I dont know what it was but i didnt like it. I felt ill, accually i still feel ill. I had dinner inbetween and plenty of time to rest. So i dont think its that. I feel like sh*t. Im sorry i was let down math. Rating: well due to it makeing me sick its gonna be lower. After i stopped about halfway though, i was finished. I cant even stand to smell the orange now. It made my hookah reek of the orange. Hopefully that will go away soon.My rating will be a 4.5-5 max. It was a good orange but the after taste and the queezyness is NOT worth it. Until tomorrow!

MR Bubble Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Useless, I like your reviews. Unlike me, you know how to get to the point. With me, I wander off and pee behind the tree, and go smoke a cigarette, then I remember what I'm supposed to be talking about. It isn't easy being me sometimes. Good job. Look forward to hearing some more reviews. MR Bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathazar Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 You don't have to apologise to me buddy, everyone has there likes & dislikes. I love the Orange. Compared to other Orange brands that I've tried, HH's was the BEST. How many different brands of Orange have you smoked. Not trying to be condescending toward you, I'm just curious. Because, I've tried Al-Amasi Orange, it's good but doesn't compare to HH. I've had Al-Fakher Orange and Romman Orange . Neither compare to the goodness of HH Orange. Oh well, that's the way the ball bounces, I guess. I think Nakhla Double Apple is good, but nowhere near as good as Havana or Romman. Nakhla Lemon is pretty awesome, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uselessdreamer1 Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 Well after a nice college fair, a friend and i decided to smoke. Being the friend i am i let him choose the flavor and he chose....ROMMAN PEACH! Variables: Outside.....same set up..... Aroma: Mmmmmmm Smells like Candy Peach Rings.... Pure awesome. Cut/Wetness: Standard romman cut and wetness. Always awesome sh*t. Taste/session: We started and the smoke came. It was good. A nice sweet peach taste. It was like eating a peach but in smoke forum.....it was like smokeing a peach... which i think is the point. Friend enjoyed it very much too. Rating: Well this was just awesome... I think i was feeling a little queezy after the satan orange but this brought it all right back. Id say much better then nakhla, only because of sweet taste.. 8 out of 10. - Subject to change.

mushrat Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 ya, Romman peach is probably about my favorite of all time. Figures i have expensive taste. But wtf...i spend 20 bucks on a bottle of scotch (i've found a seriously underrated, underpriced singlemalt...hope no one else finds out or they'll raise the price) and $10 on a some of the new beers you can get in the backassward state. Keep on smoking man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypress Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 My normal wine bottle range is between 15-20. Every now and then I splurge into the 40 and 50 buck range. Some day I am going to try Ch Margaux. Not quite sure what vintage but its at least 300-450 a bottle. BTW what is the brand of scotch you are talking about so i can try it out some time.

uselessdreamer1 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 i just smoked some ROMMAN lemon and Nakhla mix...review for that tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uselessdreamer1 Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 My girlfriend and I came back to my house after dinner and decided to smoke a head. She smokes with me quite a bit so maybe i can get some pictures. Well i let her decide and she chose Romman Lemon and Nakhla Mint mix, which is fine by me, I alsolutely love lemon mint. Variables: Outside....yea u got the picture. Aroma: The romman was amazing, smelled just like a lemon. I love this smell. Nakhla mint was a nice mint smell, not to strong, but just right. Cut/Wetness: The nakhla was cut to standard little chunks not to wet, more like a glazed tobacco. Romman was nice and fresh and wet, but not dripping. Taste/Session: OMG this is the best thing i have smoked yet, i say yet because i still have 13 or 14 flavors left. The lemon is outstanding tastes like a lemon unlike nakhla, which tastes like pledge. this is pure lemon zest! The mint was good too gave a nice cooling effect that i love with a lemon smoke. secession lasted about 45- 1hour. Rating: This is my new favorite thing to smoke, Hands down. Its amazing, im going to buy some romman lemon when i get my debt card, I love the stuff. Im going to rate the Romman Lemon a 10! and the nakhla mint an 8 just because it was use as a mixer. I dont think im brave enough to smoke it straight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uselessdreamer1 Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 i havent tried it yet but i did try AF melon tonight and i loved it. so i think im gonna explorer this Al Fakher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uselessdreamer1 Posted September 19, 2005 Author Share Posted September 19, 2005 ok all i have smoked for the past day and a half is AF melon so i guess ill review that. Variables: same as always but im useing foil now! Aroma: i think it smells like a melon but not a tipical melon smell. Its very nice smelling though. Cut/wetness: This is a nice cut, few clumps. Nothing a fork cant handle. It not as wet as the al waha i have but its not dry. Id more the nakhla wetness minus the glaze look. The ma'assell itself is a beautiful red, a deep red. Its gorgous, not as much as my girlfriend though! Taste/Session: Taste was amazing, almost like a melon. Nice white clouds, tends to get harsh no mater what i did. Take a coal off, smoke too thin, put one on burns the throught. after it got going piggy back style kept it at a nice cloud. when i was finished i had un smoked ma'assell. This is going to be a regular on hand once i find a place that carries it! This melon and nakhla melon is close together, Im really torn between the to. Id say that this one is more fruitier then nakhla though. Rating: since this was an exceptional smoke, but it was a little harsh. id rate it a good 7.5-8! I loved it, as well as everyone that smoked with me. This is one to try if u like fruity flavors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
