Nakhla Khan El Khalili

[Jacob Shock]

Is this one like zaghloul?

do you drop the coals on directly or can you use foil. i dont want any of this add vegtable glycerin shit. i like my nakhla the way it was suposed to be, adding glycerin makes it taste slightly diffenrt so i dont do it.

I smoke it like every other tobacco brand....with foil. the only difference is a richer, deeper, and somewhat spicier flavor....supposedly, there's a bigger buzz too....but, i can't comment on that...

[mattarios2]

there for sure is a bigger buzz, about the level of Tangiers id say. i smoke khan el khalili with foil.

i use zag to mix into all my flavored nakhla for a bigger buzz and richer taste.

Khan has a more nutty taste, zag is more on the flavorless side, which is why i like to mix it with nak flavored shisha, b/c it doesn't ruin the taste but still adds flavor and richness.

Im a fairly regular tangiers smoker, and if im not smoking Noir, im smoking Nakhla.

Kahlili knocks me on my ass. Love the deep tobacco taste, but i cant "enjoy" it.

How do you two pack khan? i know my tolerance was ridiculously high at one point, but maybe packing methods are a factor as well....

[mattarios2]

well the tighter you pack it the less of a buzz you are gonna get.

i pack my nak pretty darn tight, if you pack it fluffy the clouds just aren't there for me, compared to when tight.

try packing it light arcane if you don't already, should make the buzz stronger.

but yes khan and zag straight ... id say it is possible that it IS stronger than tang, it does knock me on my ass too when i smoke it straight.

I packed Kahlili a little bit looser than normal nakhla (which i pack down like tangiers). But it was still pretty full. So you might have a point Mat.

Hmmm Good idea on the Zag mixer. I might mix some Zag with some mizo to get back that rich taste.

[Arcane]

I pack my nak a sccotch lighter than tangiers....so, maybe a looser pack may help...

then again, i've kinda quit smoking cigs....got a very slight buzz from nak peach a couple days ago...khan may give me a good buzz now...

[mattarios2]

First off, my name is John ... and yeah the nak mixed with zag is my go to, it's all i smoke these days.

and when i pack nak really really light, i get almost no clouds but huge buzz. the less you pack the easier and quicker the nicotine cooks, that's my guess as to why the buzz is stronger.

for mixes, flavors like guava and peach, i usually do 25g nak/mizo and 15g zag, stronger flavors like cherry i do 20g of nak/mizo and 20g of zag. Mix and match and find what you like, it's great!

think im gonna have to buy some then. im already a zag smoker. hope i like this one better

[twoapplesplease]

The khan is better mixed with non fruit flavs...especially delicious with rose and or jasmine...I started using one of those combo/screen/windcover bowls for zag and khan strait...works awsome for those,, I like foil for regular nakhla flavs

I love Khan El Khalili. I think the best mix by far is 75% Khan 25% AF Pipe. The pipe just adds a little bit of chocolate flavor and makes the Khan very smokeable. For Khan straight up, I add a tiny bit of glyercine and honey. As far as the non-fruity flavors, this one is the strongest that I have ever had.
