I think it is easier for you to give us flavors you would like to try and we can recommend brands. There is not a single brand that i have smoked that does not have a flavor I do not enjoy and yet there are many brands that have at least one flavor that I would gladly smoke again. My preferences would be Lucid, Af, and some nakhla.

well i would suggest starting with something like nakhla or tangiers lucid if you want a good buzz, want a better buzz get tangiers og. if you dont mind spending extra money on a "quality" shisha but arent looking for a buzz get yourself some star buzz ive heard things about it. then there is al fakher those are the 4 i can think of and the ones ive heard good about. there are other brands but they dont come to mind atm... i only smoke nak and tangiers... dipping my feet in new waters in the future

The only mints I've tried are Fantasia and Havana, and I much prefer the Havana. Mint is definitely a good flavor to invest in. You can smoke it solo, or add it in to another flavor for a "cooling sensation." I'll have to give them a try tho ^^

Tangiers and Nakhla. Just try any flavor that sounds appealing to you.

I just started smoking from my own pipe on a couple of weeks ago. I have had AF plum, watermelon and grape as well as Nakhla mint which I like to sprinkle into the other flavors. Buy a bunch of different 50 gram packs and if some of those really blow your skirt up then buy in bulk. Plum is my favorite so far, btw.

AL FAKHER! - The fuck in her is always good!
[/quote]

i'm sick of people always doing this. it's so lame. It's AL FAKH ER the KH is a pronunciation which most English-only speakers have a very difficult time pronouncing or just can't do it at all. It's the same KH (arabic خ) as in Khalil M3amoun.

my point is this: one should not dumb down a language because of one's own inadequacies and either: one's inability or unwillingness to learn. the only joke in this situation is on the one 'making' it, because s/he looks about as mature as a 13 year old boy going through puberty.

/rant

Sorry for the threadjack.

I would recommend most Al Fakher (which literally means the luxury) with few exceptions. Stay away from AF's two apples for sure.

I would go with Tangiers Lucid until you can figure out if acclimation would be an issue - I can't get it to acclimate here.

Nakhla, especially the mizo line is good.

It's pronounced like All - Fah- ker

Or that's the only way I can explain it to the Arabic disabled.
My best advice, is if you pronounce it like al - fuck- her just do us all a favor and say AF...

That is one of the best "first posts" that I have seen from a new person.... back on topic... I havnt had a Nak Mizo flavor that I havnt liked yet.... Starbuzz has good flavors although its a little pricey... and Tangiers Lucid (pick a flavor) is a great line as well.

While you guys are busy arguing over a word....im gonna go smoke.


Nakhla
Tangiers (lucid is a good starting point, If you can find f line deffinately grab it)
Some AL FAH KER flavors (berry is nice)
Fusion has gotten expensive over the last year or so but i still love it. (try mandarin, or pink lemonade)

Overall you should try as many brands as you can so you can determine for yourself what you like.

I know this is going to sound ridiculous, and not something you see often on these forums... But, Tangiers is highly overrated. Yes it's good stuff, especially when you use it in a Tangiers phunnel bowl. But there's nothing better than some Golden Al-Fakher in an Egyptian bowl. I'd definitely give Tangiers a try as well as AF (especially the golden line), stay away from a Nakhla the stuff is bad.

wouldnt let me edit:

ANYWAYS!
Just take everything that everyone said and apply it.
Look around for sample packs.
If you buy something and end up not liking it, put it up in the trades for something youve never had before. (granted you get your post count up to at least 50)

Oh and deffinately pick up some of that "mediocre" /*sarcasm* tangiers
