Mint: Great Mixer, Not So Good Alone.

[boludo]

The topic says it all. I believe mint is a great mixer and use it often when smoking. I am a big fan of mixing mint with pretty much every flavor (or at least fruit flavor since I am not a big fan of flower flavors). I believe that a bit of mint in your bowl makes the experience so much better. I recently tried tangiers bramberry, and it was delicious, but I tried it again mix with a little bit of mint and it was unbelievable. The same thing happened with sour grape (which, along with mimon is becoming one my favorites). The curious thing is that I am still not able to smoke straight mint.



Does anybody else agrees with me? Mint as a mixer is great, but straight is no so great.

Nope i smoke mint alone a lot. Mizo mint is the strongest mint I've come across. It takes a little getting use to but is great when you get use to it.

I def like to mix mint with alot of things too, but sometime theres nothing like a straight bowl of mint.

I love Mint Solo!!!!

Nakhla Mint
Romman Mint
Tangiers Mint
Nakhla Mizo Mint
Prince Mint

those are top of my list now. Haven't had Fumari in a while, but Apple Mint was stellar, bet their mint is great too!

straight up mint is like heaven....

although, the OP is like most people and can't smoke it straight....which sucks, because if you're able to do it.....it's phenomenal!!

I love AF Mint alone. But mixing it with other flavors is good too.

[no longer welcome]

af mint for me, mizo mint is way too strong, even as a mixer, a tiny pinch will over power your original flavor

[Stuie]

I use to not smoke mint solo... heck i wouldn't even touch DA and floral flavors at one point now a solo bowl of Nakhla DA, or Romman Mint, or Tangiers Lemon Blossom is very common in my sessions.

I'm still in the process of buying 50g packs to try as many flavors as possible but the first time I bought shisha, I got a 250g of nakhla mint. I knew I could always count on a good mint smoke solo or mixed.

[joytron]

so good alone

I love mizo mint alone, but af mint I just use as a mixer

[Chreees]

Mint alone is great.... especially ubermint.

[Guest Cheng]

I dislike mint shisha, Mint alone for me is a big NO NO! Everytime I smoke mint, even as mixed, my nose goes numb, whenever I breath it hurts because my airways are so open. Its not a good feeling for me

I can handle things like Blue mist but, even that I dont find it too nice, Golden Layalina Blue Mist mixed with Al Fakher Bubble Gum on the other hand is nice Af:60/40:Blue Mist.

Nakhla Mizo Mint solo is my favorite all-time smoke. I have to buy 2-3 boxes at a time or else it goes entirely too fast. To me, mixing mint with anything is just wasting mint that could be going towards a full bowl.

I'm a Mint FREAK! AF Mint is my favorite flavor. I enjoy smoking it alone, and I ALWAYS mix it with other flavors. The best mixer hands down.

My bowls always contain 50% Mint, unless I am completely out of it.

AF mint alone is one of my favorite relaxing smokes, it takes some getting used to but it's realllll nice

[Arcane]

lol OP....looks like you're in the minority...

but, it is true that mint does make a great mixer...especially with fruit flavors....

[r1v3th3ad]

I like AF Mint with AF Grape, yum yum

the only time I like mint alone is when I'm sick, it clears me out

instead of mixing in mint shisha with my flavors, I now just add a few drops of peppermint oil, unless I'm at my buddy's place who always has mint shisha

[Travis]

I like it both ways

Mizo mint is pure awesomeness by itself.....but mix it with some mizo peach ( i know sounds weird but trust me) is deh shiznit.

[thatonethere]

That's what I thought when I first got Nak Mizo Mint. That's really strong!!!! I like to mix it myself. Now, I can smoke it alone, but I have to not inhale so deeply.

[mxtaylor]

Probably smoke more AF Mint bowls than any other flavor/mixes. Its especially good when you have a cold cause it seems to clear you up. Works for me atleast.
