louman3333 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 AF grape flavour is one of my favorites and yes it doesnt smell that good in the tin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushbr Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 never tried it, if i ever do try a grape, and i most likely will, i want one that is more of a grape jelly flavor then a green grape flavordoes the smell in the tin corespond with the smell of the smoke?

gaia.plateau Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 There have been complaints about a few batches of AF grape being bad, tasting like ketchup. I've recently ordered some and will be ordering more next week, it's a favourite of mine and among friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaia.plateau Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) Search "AF + grape + ketchup", you'll get a lot of threads. I've even seen it referred to as "ketchup shisha" (I think by DPG, for one).Edit: Jamesh, what's the date on the package? I think the other "bad" tubs were all from August '07.

JillyIsJustKidding Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) I think from what I've seen, its been reported that bad batches are from july 2007-september 2007.No idea why though and it is pretty weird. thank God, my batch didn't come bad when I ordered from H-C. Production date was Nov 2007 and its kinda freshEDITED because I have bad grammar lol Edited March 17, 2008 by JillyIsJustKidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyIsJustKidding Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 O yeah BTWI know someone who had a bad batch, what this person did was let it air out for a week and the bad smell was gone completely. You should try that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushbr Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 how.......... how does that even happen?did sum ass wipe mix a batch of catsup in with the shisha? did somebody mistake baby tomatoes for grapes??? im really confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 They were probably trying something new, and it went horribly, horribly wrong. Either that or there was a problem with their ingredients.Either way it should have been tested before it went out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaia.plateau Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 first you'd need them to respond to your e-mail.I've been trying to get ahold of them for over a month, have sent 3 e-mails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Yeah you got a bad batch. All the bad ones are from july to october 09, they smell and taste terribly. I still have mine from months ago left in a container. Im afraid to open it up but since some people suggested i let it acclimate it may get better. Bushbr , it is not intriguing. This is not your ordinary ketchup, it is RANCID IN YOUR FACE KETCHUP. If you smell it , it will make you nauseous and if you smoek it , you will be in hell.
