Lukasa Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I know you all must be deadly tired of people posting threads about "can u halp me?" but indulge me, please, my good gentlemen. I'm looking to buy some new shisha. I have recently bought a new hookah, its ~26inches tall, and a pretty nice specimen. I feel i need to smoke some excellent shisha out of it. My shisha expierience is limited to Nakhla (peach, double apple, orange, and lemon) I thought orange and peach were terrible, double apple was just alright (not a fan of anise), and lemon is good for mixing with other shisha. Al Amir (Grape, Melon, Rose, Orange, Apple, Double Apple, Strawberry, Mixed fruit) Grape was by far my favorite, it was juicy, thick, sweet, and delicious. Strawberry was also very good, tart and pretty flavorful strawberry ties with melon and apple for second place but they could stand to have stronger flavor and thicker smoke. Rose was very flavorful, but just... weird, hurt my throat too. orange was crap. again, double apple isnt my cup of tea. Al Fakher (mango) It sucked. It was super delicate, it burned harsh as hell with 1 coal, the flavor was disgusting and the smoke was thin. Maybe i got a bad batch/bad flavor. Anyway, what shisha should i get (and from what retail website) based on the info i gave. Lay it on me my wise hookah-loving friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is full of sexist pigs. I just thought I'd throw that in. As for super sensitive tastes... I haven't tried much - but Al-Waha seems like it might be your "cup of tea." Try it out and see how you like it. If I'm wrong, good luck suing me. But I ain't got the money.Hope that helps, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 The brotha' be helpin hisself out by typing "review" in the search engine and reading the myriad of reviews people have done of every conceivable brand and flavour out there... Quick hint...2 apple means Anise to some degree.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahDuck Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Im suprised no one has said this yet- but it would be wise of you to pick up some AF Gold Eskandarani(sp?) Apple. It doesnt have anise, and sounds a lot like what you are looking for.If you want a tobacco with some SERIOUS flavor, look at the darker Tangiers ma'assels. Kashmir Peach, Cinnamon, and Kashmir Apple will knock your socks off.I havent tried any Fumari myself, but I've heard great things about their brand being very crisp and realistic. Check out Blueberry.Starbuzz, I havent tried as well- but I've heard even better things. Spearmint and Kiwi Strawberry seem to be well liked on the board.Hope I helped!

MOSES Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I recently tried Fumari, and I loved it. I tried Tropical Punch & Exotic Mango. The flavors were amazing, one friend said that the tropical punch tasted like a "jelly belly" jelly bean. The smoke quality was nice also, very thick and tasty. I can't wait to try White Peach.
