dizzbizz Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I just recently bought 3 250g's of Tangiers: Strawberry, Lime, and Kashmir Peach. The peach was the only one that didn't need to acclimate very much. I immediately left all 3 of the shisha's opened in their container for at least 4 hours. The peach is the only one thats smoke able and even smells like peach. But strawberry and lime smell exactly the same. I decided to spread the strawberry out on tin foil and let sit. Its been sitting now, for almost 6 hours, and still no avail. What am I doing wrong? It hasn't rained recently, I'm in AZ. I don't get it and I'm getting very frustrated. This isn't the first Tangier's I've had, I've had maraschino cherry and Lime before, both were fine and I'm doing now what I did last time.

Arcane Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 there's a thread called "Acclimation Issues with Sonthert" or something similar. In there, Eric mentions a new acclimation method....leaving it to air out for 4 hours, sealing it up for 20. try and give that a shot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Exactly why I get Lucid, lol. I'm going to get some Noir and try it out, though. I fear acclimation, haha. Really I just never know for sure when I'm gonna smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fillup Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 (edited) Did you get the Cool Strawberry or the regular Strawberry? Ive had problems with the Cool Strawberry getting really harsh compared to the rest of Eric's line that Ive tried.

Stuie Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Where did you get them. Lime hasn't been made for a while...it could be they are stinking OLD! I got a very old bag of Cinnamon once... not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzbizz Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yeah they're old but I've bought them from my local shop before too and they smoked fine. They just smell werid, not like the flavor at all. The packages had no problems with the seals either. Oh and its regular strawberry. Oh and thanks for the link. I'm gonna check it out.

Sonthert Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Strawberry and Old Lime will have light aromas to begin with. That may be why they don;t smell acclimated. Also why Kashmir Peach seems to be faring the best of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
