Comparison: Alfakher Da And Alfakher2


Recommended Posts

Here we go, and sorry for pictures quality. I used my BB Pearl phone camera. tongue.gif

Packaging:




Cut/Color:

Alfakher Double Apple has finer cut with less stems. Red color.
Alfakher2 golden color. Looks like a wet Nakhla Double Apple.
AF2 Color does not stick to your fingers and does not show as much as the AF DA.
AF DA was wetter than than AF2.







My setup:

My good old Gozza, thanks to PalGuy. He gave me this one as a gift. smile.gif
Starlight Coconut Charcoals.
Egyptian Bowl.
Alfakher Healthy Hose.


Flavor:

AF DA tasted a little sweeter than AF2.
Both had a strong anise taste.
You can taste same way in both. No chemical taste similar to Nakhla DA for both.

Smoke:

AF DA gives a thicker smoke than AF2.

My Opinion:

AF2 seems is very close to AF DA in smoking experience. If you like AF DA you will love AF2.
It looks more like shisha because of its color and because you can see the tobacco leafs better in it.
Price seems to be close if we compare them gram to gram.

you use 3 coconut coals on a egyptian bowl? doesnt that burn your AF?
i know when i use my egyptian with AF i could only use 2 coconut coals at the most.



I usually use 2 but as the shisha burns I add one more around the edges and start moving to the center as I de-ash them.

that's a nice marble garlic masher in the background, i hope it's not used for shisha mashing.


hahaha, no but I am planning to buy a food processor to use it when I mix flavors.

Thanks for the awesome service dude. Get more of the apple goodness back in your inventory as soon as possible. I will be done with my shisha soon. smile.gif

Mortar and pestle my friend. Garlic mashing is but one of the many uses for this tool. I do a lot of spice grinding, freshly ground (and fresh in general) spices are unbeatable!

Also, your hookah looks awesome Gunsboy, I want one.

I figured since af2 has pretty much flown under the radar since its depute that it still can't compete with the Two apples champ Nakhla.



Them fighting words.......

regular AF DA sucks a big one
there are alot of AF flavors I like, and they did great on thier single apple flavors reg apple esk apple and bah apple, I will try this AF2 but I don't expect much of it. Keep in mind it will be judged by Nak DA.

Don't get me wrong Af two apples is a great anise flavor.While Nakhla two apples is a great apple flavor.

I'll give the AF2 a go one day when I'm in the mood for pure Anise.I do like the new look and cut though I just wish it wasn't so washed.They shoulda made a golden AF two apples.
