I was so ready to mix some Nakhla Sweet Melon and AF Melon... guess this is the decider for me! Definitely give it a try.

DA is iffy for me, some of them are good... some of 'em are meh. So not sure I would go through the effort for that flavor. But now I am thinking: Lucid Watermelon and AW Watermelon... or Romman Watermelon (one of the few Romman flavors I will pay their price for) and AW Watermelon.

..Mixing Nakhla DA with AF 2 Apples?




Don't do it. I tried and it's a real failboat since AF DA makes the whole bowl taste like shit. Just add a bit of glyc. to the Nak DA and you'll be golden.

I have some Mizo Apple and smoke it sparingly. It's some strong shite!

i dont understand why people feel its necessary to add glycerine to nakhla


I guess it depends how fresh the Nakhla you get it. Except for a few boxes most of the Nakhla I've had was very dry, so a medium phunnel lasts two hours tops. With glycerin it's more in the ballpark of 5 hours.

Seems like the Nakhla + Glycerine is the great debate.

Those who add Glycerine: Do you suffer loss of flavor or addition of chemical taste?

Also for the record I love AF 2 Apple. It is straight licorice but that's not a bad thing for me.

Also--does Nakhla DA have a "born-on-date?" If you were at a shop could you pick the freshest one by looking at the outside of the pack?

Cheers!

Don't overload on the glyc. and you should have minimal loss of flavor, if any. I haven't noticed any chemical taste when adding glyc. Make sure it's food/medical grade (USP). People also recommend adding a bit of honey to compensate for the flavor loss. Or agave sweetner (don't know the proper name of that stuff).

As for the Nakhla boxes, I haven't seen a single one with a production date, but I haven't tried all their lines. Maybe they do it with the Mizo?

edit: your love for AF DA is disturbing ohmy.gif Wish I could find someone that likes this stuff around here, could avoid wasting the ~200g of it that I have left lying around. Edited by erufiku

We used to mix nak. 2 apple and Af esk apple. Called it 2 1/2 apple. Was tasty.

The perfect 2 apple in my opinion was a jordanian brand called Sara. Honey based, smooth, the most ballanced apple/anise flavour I'd ever found. Too bad it seems impossible to find anymore. sad.gif

I get no flavor loss when adding glyc. But there really is no need to add glyc unless you want longer sessions and huuuge clouds. Big clouds are still attainable but with glyc it just makes it much easier for thunderous clouds.

And there are no production dates on nakhla boxes.
