ColibriDon Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 QUOTE (xpimpitox @ Jul 12 2009, 09:02 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>The reason I hate starbuzz now is because their consistency IMO has gone to absolute shit. I was a die hard SB fan until with every batch I got my hardcore go to flavors were horrid. I'm exclusively Tangiers simply because Eric is very meticulous with his tobacco and I enjoy almost every flavor he has to offer. On the other hand in the name of science and because Hypnotiq is a good drink, I will probably pick a 100g can up just to see how well they incorprated it into a smokeable form. Welcome to the forum duder!PS: Code 69 for me taste like panties and perfume...Did I get an incredibly horrid batch (or good if your into that sorta thing) or is this how it taste like?I agree with the consistency of SB issue. I also agree with your thoughts on Tangiers. If I'm going to spend the cash on some tobacco or anything else, I want to make sure it's worth it by having quality guaranteed. Code 69 tastes like a citrusy, berry soda to me. I've only bought one tin about a month ago and I just finished it off yesterday. I definitely didn't get the panties/perfume taste but I could see some people enjoying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff_T Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) I love having 1 or 2 white russians, pretty sweet so thats about all I can handle, but I'd def be interested in seeing how the flavor comes out. +1 on the over pricing, for $14 I may be more inclined to make a purchase...Lebowski Fest FTW!

ih303 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 We used to sell a buttload of code 69 at the lounge. Honestly, I always thought it tasted like cherry-coke. When people would ask about pink, we would tell them it tasted like that old Zebra gum with the jokes on the wrapper.I agree that SB caters to a specific kind of smoker. I wouldn't limit it to sorority girls but it's not too far off. SB is like bubblicious bubble gum - the flavor is super sweet and intense but only lasts for a short period of time. I used to be a big fan, but now I think it's just too sweet. Not to mention, they amount of artificial coloring/flavor they put in their product would put any kids' breakfast cereal to shame.The way I see it, I'd rather smoke some AF or Tangy Lucid that I know will last for hours and hours for half the price. I don't buy into the SB gimmicks and marketing hype. I've smoked it, I've thought it over, and have come to the conclusion that it's simply an inferior smoke on every level.That being said, more power to all you SB lovers. I mean no disrespect. It's like they say, "Opinions are like noses - everybody has one." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad someone else see's that.2: It's fruit stripe! It had those tattoo's on the gum wrapper, horrible idea. I think it tastes like candied pineapples though.3: It does kind of cater to the "hookah newb" who can get an easy smoke for 2x the price.

cxc5120 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I was pretty impressed with sb new flavors. I kinda think Pink could be my new favorite sb flavor. I still havent tried code 69, but I walked out my front door this morning and bam there it was lol. Im sure ill be giving the two even newer flavors a try soon.

chinodos Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I like SB, but agree with most here that most other brands taste just as good at half the price.

chinodos Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 damn edit times.....P.S SB Code 69 does taste like Cherry coke! I like it alot for when Im in the mood for something sweet...and when I can afford it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeymikez Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 is sb really that expensive? haha. i spend 10 bucks flat on a 100g tin at the smoke shop near my house. and the smoke shop is literally like a 2-3 min drive and walking distance if i want. and i can get it right when i want it. i dont have to wait for it to be shipped to me, i dont have to spend money on shipping it or on gas to get it as i said i can walk there if i choose, and i can open the cans and smell em. but i do agree there are better brands/flavorsss. sb jus tickles my pickle. bwahahah.oh and anyones thoughts on fumari? i like a good 15 mins from the wholesale office/hookah lounge downtown and you can pick up a 100g bag for 9 bucks flat (last time i went which was a little while ago) and theyre always super freshhh.
