Shisha brand suggestions

[greenwasabi]

Hey guys, I spent a couple days reading up on different brands of shisha in old posts. It seems like the favorite on this forum is Tangiers hands down. However, since I'm a newb i don't think i would get the most out of Tangiers in terms of heat management and the amount of tobacco.So I was wondering what do you guys recommend? I read mixed reviews on Fumari. Some people loved it and some people commented that the Watermelon smells like chemicals, White Peach tastes soapy, and some just arent "flavorful." Lots of people like AF, but again, mixed reviews. I tried Nahkla Double Apple, i thought it tasted like shxt plus the anise flavor was very strong. I tried Romman Peach and that was pretty good in terms of flavor and smoke. In general, I enjoy flavorful tobacco(no anise taste) with decent smoke. So what's the best bet? Fumari or AF? Or is it really just technique that makes the difference?My current setup is Mya QT, regular ceramic bowl, foil/screen (screen wasnt as great), and Golden Coals (quicklight ones from H-S.com), ice in base.Thanks. (sorry for the long, tedious paragraph)

I haven't tried Fumari so I can't really answer your question, but if you want to avoid anise flavoring, just stay away from apple anything.
