Al-Fakher review

[thebastard]

Just got some good 'ol Al-Fakher cola & sweet melon from H-S. I just tried the cola, here's a review:

Machine: 35" Egyptian hookah, cold water in the base, 1 tablet of 3 Kings coal, & a standard egyptian bowl.
The ma'ssel was a light brown colour & very finely cut, quite juicy
too. It had a very strong cola smell- infact the smell was so
overpowering I couldn't resist to give my finger a lil lick after
packing the bowl!

Smoke: Really smooth & flavour-full. It wasn't that thick at first,
but after a few pulls it got really thick. If you like a good buzz I'd
definately recommended this. The taste is unlike other ma'ssells...a
sort of odd taste, a good odd though. Personally its not something I'd
use everyday but worth cracking open for a different kind of smoke
every once in a while. With the above setup, it lasted just over an
hour. I'd give it 7.5 out of 10 as the smoke goes kind off sickly sweet
during the end, but in my opinion it definately beats any Nakhla I've
had.
