Deutsch am Herzen Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 ok, so guava...im fairly new to that flavor i guess. i really like it though. so far ive only tried af's and sb's. ive yet to try the mizo. i kinda like the af more than sb, it seems a little bit milder than sb. are there any others i should add to that list?

Mr.Frosty Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I haven't had any other than Al Waha and it blew me away. I love the flavor, but I hear there is not that much difference between the AF and AW Guava, Fusion is supposed to make a very good Guava as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Close Call for me Tangiers and Nakhla Mizo are neck in neck in my book with Tangiers inching forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcane Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 i'd recommend Mizo Guava, but since you said you prefer AF's Guava to SB's because it's milder....Mizo Guava may not be good for you. Mizo Guava is full-on flavor. There's nothing really mild about it. Mizo Guava kicks your teeth in and says "HELLO! TASTES BUDS!! I HAVE ARRIVED!!"

Chaz1337 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 If you dont like overpowering Guava flavors Mizo may be a little much. It slaps you in the face with huge guava flavor. Romman's is a little more mild which I prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LZ22 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I am not a fan at all of guava flavor. Tastes a little too weird for my liking. But I do have Mizo Guava and its hard to not like because Mizo pwns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codename067 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Mizo has a good, strong Guava flavor. Great for mixing with other flavor, no so great smoked straight up [unless you enjoy smoking one flavor bowls]. Right after Mizo, I'd say..Layalina.

LaurenMarie Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I've had Hookah Hookah Guava and it tasted like .... the Jungle to me. lmao. Hard to explain but that it tasted like a leaf. I don't think that's how a guava should taste, but if it is... get some HH. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Seriously Stuie as much as I hate OG nak I love the mizo line but Mizo Guava doesn't hold a candle to Deja Vu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutsch am Herzen Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 hmm, i may try the mizo...i dont mind stronger flavors, i guess it just depends on what i feel like smoking. im not too big on sb anything really...although i dont think ive tried enough of their flavors to make that type of decision lol. im startin to like tangiers a little too much haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 As stated already mizo guava but you may not like that. I thought fusion guava was incredible before mizo came along, and fusion guava is much more mild in flavor. I think fusion would be good for you.

ih303 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 +1 for mizo. Has anyone else here noticed that smoking mizo quava for a while has a tendancy to numb your mouth a little bit? I have no idea what causes that but it's super neat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 YES I've said this before ... no one has noticed what I mean from who i've talked to, try mixing a little zag into it and it makes your mouth even more numb! I also have no idea what causes that, but i like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 it's the charcoal gnomes.... actually, i haven't smoked mizo guava in a while...hopefully, i have an empty container tonight and i'll be able to see if i get that numbing feeling too...

RingsMaster Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 i havent had mizo yet but its on its way, so far AF is my fav guava, AW was ok i found it to be weaker in flavor than AF and ive had starbuzz guava which if i remember correctly was very good, and al amir guava is ok at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMoodz Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Mizo Guava is an excellent flavor! I'm running out and need to restock. Tastes like Kern's Guava juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venger Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Mizo is superb. AF is very good and mixes well with AF watermelon. I have both and really enjoy them. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL [/quote] In terms of flavors, everything comes down to a question of "How Expensive do you want this flavor to be?" Guava contains one key ingredient that is only synthesized in Europe and is very expensive. Lower, cheaper guava flavors will lean more heavily on things that don't distinguish themselves from much more than what I call a background flavor. I know the flavor you're talking about, I believe it is primarily made up of ethyl acetate and sulfones (I think)...slightly sweet, rather bland. I call it background flavor since its constituents are quite common in fruity flavors...in the background of the flavor. So, no, that is not how a guava should taste...unless the guava is not fully ripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
