Exactly what i expected 10/10Cut- Pretty bad.... Not much juice and really branchy! 6/10Taste- Really refreshing... Left you with a lovely mint aftertaste! Not to strong not to weak... Just right...

raversparadise Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 Nakhla- Sweet MelonSmell- Nice melon like smell... Very sweet scent! 9/10Cut- A bit better than usual for nakhla so i was happy... Rather juicy! Still some big branch like bits in there though 7/10Taste- Not quite as good as the smell although it was still very nice... Good and refreshing and grea to mix with other flavours! One of the best from nakhla i reckon... 8.5/10Smoke- Quite thick... But not very long lasting 8/10Buzz- Average... Not much but definately felt it 6/10OVERALL 8/10NAKLHA LEMONSmell- Well this actually smelt like gummy bear lollies... With a sweet lemon tinge... Was very excited to smoke this! Cut- Very juicy and alot finer than most nakhla tobaccos 9/10Taste- Well was slightly dissapointed... Was expecting more after smelling it! Definately a nice smooth flavour though.. Just it tastes super artificial the lemon! Nice taste but reminds me of dishwasing liquid or something! Still good though 7/10Smoke- Not very thick... was pretty dissapointed 6/10Buzz- About the same as the melon 6/10Overall 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raversparadise Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 AL FAHKER GRAPESmell- Its an interesting smell... Smells like grapes but not really like the fruit! Smells more like a grape kind of candy! Not bad though... 8/10Cut- Very nice! Cut the typical al fahker way... Nice and juicy and rather fine with the odd stick 9.5/10Taste- Well i cant say i really liked it... Was pretty nice at first but became really sickly after a few puffs... was rather over whelming! Definately not a favourite for me6/10Smoke- Solid big clouds... Amazing amounts of smoke... just perfect 10/10Buzz- Nice and strong... But not quite up to nakhla standards 7/10Overall 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c4r80n Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I like how you rate everything individually. Good reviews! I was thinking though...that your overall rating should be the mean average of all the scores.add up all the points, then divide by how many different aspects you graded. you don't have to, I just thought of this and thought it was a great idea. It's professional and would encourage people to rate a bit lower on something that wasn't quite right with them to get the average. See example of your af grape.Smell 8/10Cut 9.5/10Taste 6/10Smoke 10/10Buzz 7/10________________average (8+9.5+6+10+7) / 5 = [b]8.1[/b] out of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashraj84 Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 I don't like making the final rating an average. Sometimes shisha is more than just a sum of all its parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahEnthusiast Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Great reviews ravers...as said by mush it is always nice to see differnet reviews on typical flavors/brands from different people nice job man. an average of all the rated aspects of the smoke is a good idea but i also agree with smash that sometimes a good ma'ssell is more than just a sum of all its parts..for instance a ma'ssell could have a horrible smell and you could give it a 5 but the flavor and smoke could be amazing..i dont think that would best represent the overall quality of the ma'ssell in the end with an average rating...good idea though i might do both in my next review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4r80n Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 yeah but people always say they don't like something, the way it tastes etc, and still give it like a 6/10if i don't like something i say it's crap and move on. i havn't seen anyone rate a massel below 5 or even 6.

raversparadise Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Nakhla Mixed FruitSmell- Very average... didnt smell like fruit much... more like old wood... VERY dissapointed 2/10Cut- big chunks but not to bad... Nice and wet which is unusual 7/10Taste- Rubbish... Really not nice at all! weak flavour.. Burnt really harsh! 2/10Smoke- LOADS of it... good smoke... But tasted harsh in about 10 minutes so it defeats the hole purpose... Not good at all 3/10Buzz- Biggest buzz i have ever had... Slumped in my chair mellowed out as much as you could ever possibly be! crazy 10/10Overall- very very bad... Apart from the buzz! If it didnt have a good buzz it would have been 2 out of 10 but because of the buzz i will give it a low 4/10AL Waha- OrangeSmell- Very citrusy... But not in a nice way! Smelt more like the peel than the actual fruit 5/10Cut- Quite big bits... nice and wet though! Not bad at all 7/10Taste- Definately a strong citrus taste.. But it wasnt very nice i dont think... Really tasted like the peels... yuck 4/10Smoke- Average amounts... Small to medium clouds! 5/10Buzz- Very low... dont know why as it is 0.5% nicotine! But yea it was noticeable just not great! 4/10Over all- 5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
