New Fantasia Flavors

[Stuie]

So I got a Pack of Dragon's Breath I was noticing it has new flavors listed on it that aren't out yet. (Text is tiny but it's there)

Mai Tai was on it. Got this pack before it started popping up on vendor sites.

Ice Mint (This was mentioned a while back to replace Wild Mint)
4 Play (Gonna Guess Amaretto & Pineapple)
Red Velvet (My only other food obsession that rivals Dr Pepper...Hope it's not a fail)
Joker (Gonna Guess Rum and Orange)
Lucky (Gonna Guess Rum and Sour Apple OR Cola, Rum & Lime)
SOA (I Abbreviated it, Gonna Guess Jager, Coconut, & Pineapple)
Queen of Hearts (Guessing it's Amaretto, Cranberry, & Melon)
The Million Dollar Flavor (No Idea)
Yager Bomb (For all you fanatics that have been wanting it , here it is)

I still think their website needs work, should be more informative and have a place for announcements they are hurting themselves without this. Oh well that's just my side thought on it.

Ooh, I'd be interested to try Red Velvet as well.
Wonder what the Million Dollar Flavor is... with a name like that, it better be good....!

I see they are continuing the every new flavor has to be a cocktail drink law.

How's that dragons breath?

Ugh... to each their own, but I've never been able to smoke any flavor of Fantasia for longer than ten minutes without getting sick. The flavor is waxy tasting and leaves what feels like a film in my mouth that I've noticed with Starbuzz but seems ten times worse with Fantasia. Taste and experience aside, I have a hard time respecting trendy tobacco companies that seem to only care about "bro-tastic" names and the emulation of mixed drinks. IMO, reducing the hookah experience to a frat party seems like a slap in the face to the culture in general.

HEY! I want to make it very clear here that I am in no way trying to dog or disrespect any of you who happen to like Fantasia. Also, my usage of the words "bro" and "frat" are intended as stereotyped generalizations to make my point. My intent is ONLY to express my thoughts and opinions about a company and tobacco based solely on my experience with them.

Whew... disclaimers stress me out.

i agree with ih303...Fantasia's mouthfeel and texture is extremely off-putting for me. it's for lack of a better term, slimy. The names are also a deterrent, but appropriate for the market to which they cater. But, hey....new flavors to the market is always a good thing (even the bad flavors).

i think Layalina and Tangiers are dropping new flavors shortly too.

Layalina with some new flavors? That I'd be excited for! And of course new Tangiers is always good.

For those of you picking up chemical feel after smoking Fantasia, I've noticed that Fantasia needs acclimation more than any other brand with the exception of Tangiers - which we all knows need acclimating for different reasons. Whatever their flavoring they're using, acclimation helps reduce that chemical yucky stuff dramatically. I like their Pumpkin Spice and their Margarita, but that's pretty much it for me. But when I've bought their other flavors before, I noticed leaving them out in the open for an hour or so seemed to help disperse the chemicals in the flavoring.

I'm not sure i'd classify the feel of Fantasia as chemical-esque like I would Social Smoke flavors (which taste like gasoline to me). In fact, I'd consider that to be more of a taste than a feel. What I'm talking about is the physical sensation of a film in my mouth after I smoke. Granted, I'm not a fan of the taste either since I tend to steer clear of super-sugary tobaccos like SB, Fumari, and Fantasia. But if I'm ever drunk enough to smoke Fantasia again, I might try giving it a little air before I pack it.
