Al-Fakher free samples


Recommended Posts

Well, the samples are in the mail. 
 I have to say. . .I was not impressed with the quality however.  I have been smoking Al Amir and Hookah hookah tobacco lately and I bought this tub of AF to mix things up.  I remember about a year and a half ago thinking that Alfakher was the best brand on earth, but either quality of new brands in the industry has gone way up lately, or the quality of AF has gone way down.  I also heard that there are alot of counterfeit AF's going around.  I wonder if they will be able to pull it together.

interesting point, what I've tried of hookahhookah has been terrible and very short-lived. The al amir is a worthy competitor and has a couple of great flavours, with Lemon beating Al fakher lemon ,and cherry being another fantastic flavour.
Other than that, Fakher is fantastic tobacco, and the standard is as good as ever. There are flavours to avoid though, namely pineapple. Apricot, melon, mango are all interesting flavours, but not as strong as the heavyweights: Apple, Grape, Strawberry, Cherry, Cola within which Al fakher truely reigns supreme.

[quote name='the hookah hitman']Anyone receive their samples yet?  I am
interested in seeing how well the tobacco holds up in a regular
envelope through US mail.[/quote]

Not yet, I predict monday, seeing as how it wont be shipping over the
weekend. Looking forward to it even though its not a popular flavor.

Mine arrived while I was away.
man that stuff is WET! About the same cut as I'm used to with af but a lot more goop. Reminds me of afzal and that odd blackberry i got some Bane (i think). Smells interesting. Definitly apricot but not the usual overpowering smell I get from esk apple or melon.
Can't wait to actually SMOKE the stuff!
Thanks for the sample!

FINALLY got to give the AF Apricot a smoke. Very nice. Not real stong flavour like the AF Melon or Esk Apple , but very pleasant. So far the only Apricot I have tried so nothing to compare it to. Everything else about it was your standard AF Smokeing experience.
Thanks Again Hitman!
