Why So Much Hate For Starbuzz ?


Recommended Posts

i have been noticing alot of animosity towards starbuzz lately and i was wondering if it is just the price or the lack of buzz that people are hating on. i personally love tangiers and al waha but starbuzz is my go to shisha when i want massive clouds, a lot of flavor and some very unique flavor choices. so my question is am i missing out on something here or am i one of the only lovers of starbuzz here ?

I only tried the white peach and wasn't impressed with the flavour. Only good thing about SB for me are the clouds... which don't justify the hefty price tag.

Now I'm scared sad.gif. That was some pricey maassel. Ah well, I ordered a ton of Al-Fakher along with it biggrin.gif. Regardless we'll see what its like when it gets here. It seems a lot of people are 1/2 and 1/2 about it.

yea i get my SB for 17 with tax from my local smoke shop so its not much more than tangiers for me. try blue mist mixed with some lemon its amazing. SB makes an amazing rose btw.

The sole reason i hate starbuzz is because the flavors dont last. So i see no reason to purchase a $20 can of SB when my $8 Al Fakher can out smoke it by hours. Also, AF makes incredible clouds just like SB

But i must admit, i do keep a couple flavors on hand such as white peach or peaches and cream. Great stuff. It seems like peaches and cream lasts longer then white peach though.

My primary beef with Starbuzz would be the price, coloring, and soapy flavors. They charge 160% the price of other quality brands, yet their product is not better in any way. I've tried a lot of their flavors, but I've never liked one enough to actually shell out the money a second time. Edited by Ralleac

same. soapy flavors and the food coloring.
the bowls dont last long enough, it burns too quick, too much water content.
tangiers outlasts it by 3 hours.
the best starbuzz flavors that everyone loves i dont even like. blue mist and peach are whatever for me. i cant smoke any of them for more than a week before i completely start hating the flavor.

i can get them at insanely low prices, and still choose not to smoke it.

I have never tried SB yet, but I am one of those that smokes for a buzz. I am not against it, I just haven't been motivated to try it yet because it's washed.

The few flavors I've tried so far I've liked except for the peaches and cream. I may have gotten a bad batch. Luckily I've bought the 100g tins which a few places carry so the cost wasn't too bad. I'm pretty new to hookah so I'm still trying out flavors.

I really only like a couple flavors.. White Peach, Choco Mint, Blue Mist. The price tag is hefty but these are great smokes when I have a bunch of people over biggrin.gif

I've liked all the starbuzz flavors I've had except watermelon (had a dryness to it), but I understand where people come from. It's $20 for 250g, twice as much as some of the "lesser quality" brands, but is a) half as consistent and cool.gif isn't the high quality it says it is

I've had starbuzz twice to my knowledge. It was a decent flavor and decent smoke, comparable to AF IMHO, but at $20 a pop that's just wrong. That's my beef with starbuzz. Really anything more than $15 for a 250g is rape.

here in bradentucky theres only one place to purchase shisha, its at our hookah lounge, the lounge is kinda lame, like its trying to be a club, but its the only thing to do in a town that closes at 7. and they only sell SB. theres a shop right across the street that sells the black label. so, if i'm low i'll go get some SB for $10- 100g but thats it! otherwise, i buy online i prefer naklah to SB-wait i prefer naklah that my dog vomited up over SB, stil...l i smoke it.


i hate the gymicky shisha's
