cxc5120 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Ok im sure like 23547289 people have posted about this, but I never got to read them.So I ordered Tangiers Blue GumBall last night with a pack of cocos and now im wondering if I made a bad flavor choice? I read some reviews and people liked it, but then I also heard it could be terrible..This is only my second flavor for tangiers (still trying to get it to smoke right). My first was static starlight.But, anyways, will I be alright with this flavor choice? Or should I try to contact hookah-shisha and try to switch my flavor? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElijahSing Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 keep it, its supposed to be a really good flavor.. just dont smoke it until its acclimated right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattarios2 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Heard it is a good flavor but it is one of the more finicky flavors to get to acclimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixPackSunday Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 if you like the taste of dog ass and hooker sweat mixed in a blender made of burnt hair, then you should love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just how did you get into my kitchen, SixPack?I'm still deciding on the BGB. Mine still smells vaguely (sp) like Red Tea with waaaay too much sugar added, and I acclimated it for days here in The Deep South. I might try mixing Vanilla with it when I do my next order.

ryno Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I've only had it once, but I liked it alot. I say try it out, and if you dont like it, put it in the trades section! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of askign us what YOU will like, i suggest you wait and smoke it and see for yourself. After all we each have different tastes in tobacco.

Bulldog_916 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I personally love blue gumball. Very awesome and delicious flavor. Acclimation here in Cali is super easy I guess because I've never had a problem getting any Tangiers flavor to acclimate well in 24 hrs or less.

Hojo Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Today marks day 21 that Blue Gum Ball has been outside acclimating. It still smells like Raspberry Soy Sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapten Kanel Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) Kinda hard to know what its actually supposed to smell like when the smell constantly changes (sweden ftw...). Blueberry smells decent, but if i smell it really near i notice a little tobacco or something, is it supposed to be like that? Also, does the caffeinated orange soda have any particular side/bi smell? Cause it smells nice but something smells funny, ive read that the caffein is noticeable (which i find weird).Can you expect to get decent smoke early out of a bowl of tangiers? Because i think i throw on too much heat too early, impatient ftl Also have i understood it right - it doesnt matter how long you acclimate it, what matters is that you get lucky with the weather (moisture), that it stays the same for a period of time?

Bulldog_916 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Yea, wait for relatively stable absolute humidity. If you get that for a day or 2, acclimate for 18-24 hours then smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyram Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I have had several BGB bowls, 2 orders of regular one of Lucid, had to acclimate even the lucid, it's a bit touchy that flavor in my experience, usually if I pack a funnel and smoke it for 10-20 mins, then come back an hour or two later, it's GREAT, but it can be hard to acclimate. Make sure it smells like candy then smoke it =)-Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDHarding Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 You might get a bag that will require some acclimation, and it doesn't matter where in the world you are. If you get one of these such bags, it'll smell like BBQ and Soy sauce, and might have a "burnt" smell too. My recommendation is.. DO NOT THROW IT AWAY.. lay out some tin foil and spread the shisha out on the tinfoil. Let it sit for 6 hours, stir it, let it sit another 6, stir it, repeat until it smells sweet. Most of the soy sauce smell should go away eventually.Mine still has a hint of soy smell after 5 days of acclimation, but it's still smokable. That smell won't get into the flavor.It should smell kinda like raspberries or blueberries.. but like.. candy-ish.. not Jolly Rancher candy, just sweeter than natural.
