Sonthert Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Al Fakher 2: The Revenge of Al Fakher!Good movie title. 200g packaging. Thats the second brand going that direction (?). Price competition with smaller packaging. [/pondering repackaging]Also, I'm not sure who's getting 25-35 bowls from 200g...unless 6.5-8g bowls have hit the market that I didn't see...I guess Al Fakher is tired of being #2 and is going after #1! Either that or South Smoke likes mentioning the name Nakhla a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinamon Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 i look forward to reading some reviews.if they lessened the anise flavour significantly than their regular 2apple then i will definitely get me some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namenone Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Wow! Whats the difference though? just launched under another name?I love this bitQUOTE The Al-Fakher Tobacco brand's 250 gram jars allow for Hookah users to smoke several times a month or with larger groupsYou mean 'Allows for Hookah users to smoke every single day for about 3 weeks.'

I don't mind 200g packaging as long as the price is decreased to reflect it. 200g Fantasia sucks because it's the same price as other 250g packs.

Whats the difference though? just launched under another name?QUOTE Al-Fakher 2 is the latest brand to be introduced by the Al-Fakher Flavored Tobacco family, offering a more intense Double Apple flavor similar to that offered by Nakhla Double Apple.This makes me wonder...if this new DA is supposed to be more intense to be similar to Nakhla DA, are they admitting the original AF DA is inferior to Nakhla?

Travis Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Already got a tracking number on my order, these guys dont play around.Says its supposed to arrive on wed. so ill be waitin impatiently.I am hopin that they do cut the anise flavor for the most part and go with a more nakhla-esque to it.Dont get me wrong i could sit around and smoke a bowl of AF Mint and Af DA all day long, but new things intrigue me so.........

hookah hippie Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 new double apple I find most 2 apple to taste the same I am not sure how the same brand will make a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_cool Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Oh man I hope this is good! Iv been wanting some good AF DA for a while now!Although for some reason, it popped into my mind that the "2" is for the "Two apples" flavour and not meaning AF2, but im probably wrong, thats what it came across like to me.

On sale, they reduced the price 25%, not on sale, they reduced the price 46.7% So this is actually a pretty good deal unless SS does that thing where they list a price, but cross it out and then have it on sale 365 days a year. Not to mention a lot of people don't even pay attention to the amount of shisha in the order, they see $7.50 for one and $10-15 for another and get the $7.50 thinking its cheaper without even realizing they are getting less. This seems kinda odd to me that they are reducing the price this much, but I guess they know what they are doing.Not to mention it is probably the same thing as regular AF with a different name to psych people out. Either way, good marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no longer welcome Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 i actually smoked this today, it was good but i don't want to review it, i am supposed to give the distributors my honest opinion and set up 3 different hookahs, nak da, af da, and af2 and give them my results since they're all chain cigarette smokers and also, they are biased of course. It's been a long day and not sure if i will actually set myself up 3 hookahs tonight, but who knows.Anyways at least it has 2 good qualities, it's relatively cheap and it does not come in an ed hardy tin!
