Layalina Vs Al-waha?


Recommended Posts

Okay at least around here Layalina is more expensive than Al-Waha, but I have only smoked them once or twice. It was good but I didn't smoke these particular flavors. I am all for trying new things, but I'm not in the best financial situation and my smoking buddies are picky so for the moment I prefer to stick to smokes I KNOW are good. I was going to order two 250g containers of Al-Waha: Guava, and Watermelon. BUT I found a site with Layalina even cheaper, which sounds like a good deal since its normally more expensive!

So anyone smoked both much at all? Is the Layalina watermelon and guava very similar (or better =D) than the Al-Waha? These two jars will last us probably a month (about 20 bowls) which is all I need at the moment... but since its a month's worth I obviously want to make sure I am getting good shisha!

Thanks !

I've never smoked al-waha, but I had a 50g of layalina watermelon, the first bowl was "ok" not much watermelon taste, but the second bowl tasted like plastic the whole time. I dunno if it was just me, or that it was a 50g and i kept it wrapped up in the plastic bag it came in or what but I wasn't that impressed.

Layalina is a very good brand for milder, normally more natural-tasting flavors. My favorites are their watermelon, peach, and blackberry. If you're wanting a natural, mild tasting watermelon I'd say pick up some layalina, it's good stuff.

i like both brands pretty decently. If you could get the layalina for cheaper now then i say go for it. I like layalina's watermellon and blackberry. But i also like AW california dream and 5 stars. But i would say that layalina is worth it. I never had a bowl taste like plastic either. Thats sayin something since almost all my bowls of SB have tasted that way.

Layaline Watermelon doesn't taste like watermelon, but it's a decent flavor. I prefer AW-Watermelon but Layalina is better quality overall IMO. Also I find that Layalina doesn't have as much as the raw tobbaco taste, which I don't like but others do, which is good for AW.

I think I like Al Waha just a touch more than Layalina because Al Waha is unwashed.

Al Waha gives me headaches frequently :| Also, it's the only brand I've tryed that is so dyed that it gets my fingers red for HOURS!

I haven't tryed Layalina yet but i've ordered a box of Layalina Mangosteen which inino recommended. It is on it's way to me now : )

Personaly, I would just try Layalina (or Nakhla). Not the flavors you mentioned though.

Mangosteen and raspberry seem like a good option based on the reviews trheads

Thanks guys, I opted to go a different route (you may have seen my other thread, "Upcoming Order"). I have had the Mangosteen and it was indeed good. If I recall correctly it was a mellow sweet flavor, nothing overpowering. I was actually really looking forward to mixing it with some Guava the other day but found out I was all out of the Mangosteen!

I tried the mangosteen as well, but must say i was not impressed. did not like the flavour at all.

Layalina is a strange shisha...it's flavor changes into a sweet mess if it's burning too hot. So instead of making you cough like AF does, it just tastes bad when too hot.

That said, I love the stuff. Bahraini Apple is one of my favorite flavors from them.
