Starbuzz: Blackberry

[HookahEnthusiast]

So after reading all the great reviews on starbuzz tobac. i decided it was time for me to pick some up and try it for myself....after reading all those great reviews saying its well worth the money i had complete confidence in the quality i was going to be recieving...as usual socialsmoke provided excellent customer service and shipped extremely fast..so now for the review![b]Starbuzz: Blackberry[/b] [b]Setup:[/b] 25'' Taqseem Stargate/ Water in the base W/ Ice/ A standard Ceramic Bowl/ and Quicklite Golden Charcoals.[b]Appearance:[/b] It came just as shown in one of those silver cans as seen on the socialsmoke website..there pretty cool but only problem is there not airtight...the tobacco itself was tightly packaged in two layers of plastic wrapping. After cutting open the bag you see that this stuff is pretty soaked and had an amazing aroma...but i dont know if i would call it a "blackberry" aroma...it had a berry smell but with a wierd after smell that was a little more potent but definitly good. The cut of this stuff is what I would describe as almost minced..its the fienst cut ive ever seen in a tobacco. But dont get me wrong its not a grain....pretty much no stems except for a couple. For being blackberry it expected to have a darker color to it but it was soaked in a redish/purplish/orange syrup.[b]Coalage:[/b] I started off with one golden coal quicklite and worked it around the edge of the bowl. This produced a good smoke and didnt take long to get going.[b]Taste/Flavor:[/b] Starbuzz lived up to everything it was supposed to be....i wouldnt call this blackberry a sweet blackberry pie like flavor but more of an authentic blackberry by which i mean it seems like they tried to capture the sweetness as well as the tartness of the berry itself. It also had a very interesting back flavor that i cant really describe...the best way to put it is that it seemed like i was smoking the whole blackberry bush..not just a blackberry...as wierd as that sounds and mayb even gross...it was actually quite good....great overall flavor compared to any other brand ive tried...Blackberry seemed like it would be a very difficult flavor to capture as it is unique in its own right but i think Starbuzz did a great job of doing this as it really is an "exotic" blackberry flavor.[b]Smoke Density:[/b] After several minutes of smoking..thick, dense, fluffy white clouds of smoke were produced...once again better than any other brand ive tried. stayed this way throughout the 45-1hour long smoke period.[b]Buzz:[/b]As stated in other starbuzz reviews the buzz was somewhat mild but still present and pleasing....it was a nice good feeling relaxing buzz...[b]Overall:[/b] Overall Blackberry is a great flavor....if your looking for an authentic blackberry with both sweet and tart accents of flavor then this would definitly be a good flavor and brand to add to your stash...Starbuzz definitly lived up to its reputation..since i dont smoke as often as some ive decided that this is pretty much the only brand ill be smoking from now on...after this one try im hooked! im looking forward to trying some more flavors from starbuzz and would recommend this to anyone out there looking from something new and pretty much better than anything else out there right now IMO. I cant really find any big complaints against this flavor except for mayb a stronger buzz but it was still fine and the flavor was well worth it. And last starbuzz is expensive but it is worth every penny as i have discovered.Rating: 9.7 out of 10

sounds good.too bad they  dont sell it here.hey is a blackberry same as a  rasberry?cause i  tried  a sample of tangiers rasberry that someone sent me(thanks mush)and it was great! it smelled exactly like fresh picked rasberrys and tasted like em too.

yea it was good...the blackberry is more like a darker rasberry..same look..just black and has a different flavor to it...more like a blueberry...

Nice review H.E.! 

 Although I've never tried Starbuzz's Blackberry before, it does
sound like a pretty darn good flavor that I might have to check out
after I get done with all the Fumari I have at the moment (which could
take a very long time )

 But anyway, excellent work! I look forward to reading more of your reviews in the future.
