redlabel Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hey Guys,Just got my order of Starbuzz and 3kings coal through today from socialsmoke. Just tried Starbuzz blackberry and I must say, what an intense flavour that is. This flavour just goes on and on and on. I think someone mentioned it's higher in nicotine content, and the buzz I got was definately stronger than with al-amir Anyway, i've got 2 other flavours still left to try. kiwi-strawberry and grape. As i'm not used to the higher buzz on these - i might just stick to my trusted Al-Amir and sell these to whoevers interested. Not looking to make a profit - just what I paid plus it's share of the shipping cost. Let me know if anyones interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlabel Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 btw, i forgot to mention that I used to have the login UKShisha on this site, but it doesn't seem to be working anymore. Probably because i haven't logged on for about six months or so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txbrit31 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Beforwarned- Al Moharesh (or something like it) on Edgware sells fake Al Fakker. Al Mustafah has some decent looking shisha, but I can't read arabic, so I didn't know what brand it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavlakos_politakos Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 sturbuzz sounds good dude.first negative response ive ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlabel Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 It is good and i'm not giving it a negative. Just saying that i'm not used to tobacco with 0.5% nicotine contect. Al-Amir suits me pretty well, and I believe it's got less nicotine.It could have been that the 3kings made the smoke harsher then my usual finger coals, so i'll try starbuzz with them just to make sure.Smoked the blackberry for about half an hour before I gave up, and the flavour was still really intense!

Stef Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hello !! Reading on this forum for a while and I finally decide to register. I was wondering if any of you have try the Starbuzz Kiwi ? The only kiwi I try was the one from the Hookah Hookah witch I like. It has a good taste. But I would love more one with more taste and who last longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seandoo Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Yeah I have Starbuzz Kiwi Strawberry. It's the bomb-diggity like most everything else they make, but if you're looking for something that actually tastes like strawberry and kiwi then you might want to look at Fakher. If you've tried the vanilla it's pretty similar, both were bursting with really good sugary flavors. This is coming from someone who religiously has Cinnamon Toast Crunch every morning for breakfast so your tastes may differ. Anyway the kiwistraw tastes similar to their vanilla. If you think about it though, the sweetness can be strawberry and the bite to it that's almost a sour tinge can be kiwi. It's really good stuff but like I said it's not going to be like Snapple or something. Definately worth the price tag (3 for 45 bucks at social smoke and you get the discount so it's a really good deal, I've bought it 25 bucks each elsewhere), massive clouds of smoke, extremely forgiving heat management, etc. Just remember, the thicker the smoke, the hotter you're cooking it, the less time it lasts. I think AF GS Esk was my longest lasting sheesh, but yeah this stuff's mos. def. worth it. Sour Apple looks like grass (lawn, not weed), tastes pretty good once you get it going, smells like weed after you smoke (from what I'm told - never tried weed) it's alright. Not my fav but still a good flav to keep around for once in a while. Apple is really double apple. No strong anise but it def. is double apple. It's actually one of my top Starbuzz flavors. It seems to last a bit longer than some other flavors, though it loses the bite after a while. Flavor itself lasts a long time. Raspberry tastes to me like 7-Eleven slurpees, the blue one particularly. Man I haven't done it in a while. I'm doin that next. Anyway, yeah it's def. got that sweet artificial raspberry taste to it, which I love, so it's also really good. Not too fake though, does have fruit tastes in it as well. Watermelon - I shouldn't go into detail. The place I bought it from sold both the rasp. and watermelon to me in non-starbuzz containers. They were generic, scooped from their "master supply" in the back. It was primarily a hookah lounge, I don't think many people actually ask to buy the stuff. Some of us had suspicion that something else was in it, like not all Starbuzz. Maybe AF or Layalina mixed in, thinking we wouldn't notice the difference. Employee of another hookah bar had some with us, said it didn't taste like the Starbuzz at their place. Not my favorite taste, but I mean it was good. I think I'll give it another go just to see..... Vanilla - Like I said, tastes like marshmallows or rice krispies treats. Most flavorful vanilla in my book. I do like Layalina for a "vanilla" taste, however. Actually Tangiers was a good vanilla too, just a bit strong tobacco in general =) Sorry for the massive post, just clearing a few clouds about some Starbuzz flavors for those of you interested but unsure about the price tag. One of my most favorite smokes, only complaint is the .5% nicotine. It doesn't seem to knock me off my ass like Nakhla, but does give a good, mellow buzz. I get mad headaches for several hours though when I'm done.....maybe should slow down on it for a few days...heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlabel Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 Thanks for those reviews. I am tempted to open the Kiwi-Strawberry and the Grape tin I have, but it's the headaches that really did it for me. I usually end up smoking every day, or every other day whilst i'm relaxing in the evenings watching TV. Therefore, I need something that is going to give me a relaxing buzz rather than a headache!Am I the only one that experienced this with starbuzz?

Stef Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 [b]Thanks[/b] Seandoo ... I will probably try the Kiwi Strawberry one day...(need more money) I would love to find a good Kiwi (only) flavor. You made me want to buy some apple too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seandoo Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Oh, and yeah redlabel - I get stomped if I'm not careful. I can only take a few hits very slowly, like many breaths in between and yeah just not all that often in one session. It's good to split a bowl with 1 or 2 people with only one hose. If my brother and I each have our hookahs full of Starbuzz or just on mine with 2 hoses + autoseal we both get jacked and have headaches for about 6 hours or so. I'd almost put this as a negative point for Starbuzz....almost cuz it's worth it. Just be really, really careful that you don't go crazy breathing in a whole lot of consecutive times. I'm looking at getting nicotine filters to see if it'll help...I believe it's the .5% that does it. Almost thought about asking them to make a .05% line of shisha but I seriously doubt any company would put that into effect (though it would make me use it all the time instead of every other time...)
