Nak and tang give the best flavor.

If you find most nak flavors to be "light" on flavor, you are for sure doing something wrong. Majority of nak flavors give a huge amount of flavor. Possibly check out my tutorials in my sig to see if it will change things.

If you prefer other brands, so be it, nothing wrong with it, everyone enjoys their own thing, there is nothing wrong with that! But nak does give off more flavor than most brands, other than tang I would say, that is if you get it right.

I regret saying Nakhla doesn't have flavor. I smoked some Orange/Earl Grey and mmmm what a flavor. I dunno what I was thinking I guess I just forgot what it tasted like and thought since it was so cheap it tasted nasty.

I would rank them as follows: (Disqualifying Tangiers...for obvious reasons):

Nahkla
Al Fakher
Romman
Starbuzz
Fusion


let's say you weren't president of Tangiers...where would you rank Tangiers?


You can't do that. He makes the stuff, so obviously he will say it is number 1. I assume he makes his tobacco to the best of his ability so therefore that would make it number 1 in his book, which is why he disqualified it ... right?

This is a given, Jay, but I believe that's the exact reason he disqualified it.

Cheap isn't always bad. To me, Nakhla saves me a lot of hookah-spending money... $5 at my local shop for a 250g, to be exact... Just can't beat it. Although I wish my shop had the Mizo line. Yes, I still love Tangiers, but at it's price (which it's worth every penny) it just makes more sense to me to smoke Nakhla more often, and save the Tang for more occasional smoke.

Best way is just to try different brands with people. My friend has a huge assortment of tobacco and I got to try a bunch before making a huge purchase. 50gram packs are nice too if you're not sure.


At last you publicly admit to being a mooch!

One example is AF's grape. Nasty shit. Smells/tastes like ketchup.


Ooooohhh snap! ohsnap1.gif you did not just go there. AF Grape is one of the best flavors out there. Does not taste like ketchup at all...



seconded, I love it!

A lot of it is personal opinion. You can get great smoke from more than one brand but here's how I see it: the heaviest smoke seems to be nakhla, it's great for blowing rings too. The smoothest smoke is Al Fakher IMO. Both of those brands have some really good flavors (especially nakhlas mizo line) but tangiers has some notable classics too. And if you're willing to pay the extra money Fantasia has some really tasty flavors too, but it's a rarity I smoke something like that... mainly because I'm cheap lol.

Edit:

Grape from what I've heard used to taste great then they changed it. Now it tastes great for the first 10 minutes then has a really bland, gross after taste, and hardly anything on the draw. IMO it's not worth it, and pretty gross, but that's just me :L

  • 2 weeks later...
Anyone try Havana...."Havana Flavored Tobacco is manufactured by the same producers that introduced Al-Fakher Flavored Tobacco".....so I thought, let's give it a try cause AF is pretty reputable right? Uh no...I got 250g for 10 bucks and picked Chocolate Strawberry. Sure it smelled great and was just wet, wet, wet but man it was the worst! I smoked a bowl and it was like this chemical taste with a weak chocolate flavor…nothing else, not strawberry at all. I put it away and picked up my staple stash of Starbuzz instead and had a go at the Royal Grape...much better. A week later just so that I could say I gave Havana a fair chance, I loaded up another bowl and yup, same crappy taste. So I gave it to a Iranian friend of mine (who got me started on Hookahs) and he called me the following day saying that it made him sick. So at the end of all of this, I'm not sure if it was just the Chocolate Strawberry flavor that was crap but I'm not buying Havana again…no matter who makes it.

Al Fakher is good tobacco, but I prefer Nakhla.


Well I've been smoking AF pretty much every time I smoke unless I go to a different lounge, or well I have Nahkla now..but I really haven't been disappointed in anything AF I've ever tried. I always seem to get good smoke, and good flavor..though some AF has a stronger flavor which brings on a crazy buzz.. I think it was AF Peach that had a super intense flavor for us..but mixing it with vanilla tones that down to a good flavorful mellow....
