Scheetz Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I cant stand Double apple. I just opened my 50g pack because I wasn't in the mood for grape, orange or mixed fruit. And after the first 3 pulls I remembered why I havent smoked Double Apple in over a year at the lounge. It tastes like crap to me. Mainly it has a strong black licorice taste. And that to me is disgusting. Thank you for your time. So am I only to stand alone on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Not even close. A majority of people I smoke with despise the black licorice taste (anise). What brand of 2x apple is it? Because some brands are known to be much stronger than others. Not to say there arn't people who do enjoy the taste, I'm just not one of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 its al waha even nakhla 2x apple tastes bad to me. and its not like my hookah and pipes are dirty either, it just always tastes bad to me. before this i smoked nakhla orange, and my head was spinning after about 2 minutes of smoking. The buzz was out of control, I dont know why it hit me so hard. I smoke my hookah or the lounge hookah 3-4 times a week. lounge uses nakhla also.

imonlyapuppet Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Between me and all my friends there is only one person who likes double apple (and it's not me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 well all my friends love it, they tend to get it every time we go to the lounge. we normally get 3-4 hookahs so one ends up as double apple. i just dont touch it cause it tastes like crap.

hookah_king Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 so far i have not seen a sigle person who doesn't like 2x apple. its true that it has that strong test and no matter what brand you use that flevor gives you kick fast but that the point. try mixing few other flewors with it. for example mint and apple is a good combination.

Scheetz Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 im tempted to mix 2x apple with orange and see how that comes out. tomorrow should be a fun but i am guessing a disgusting smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilotaku Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Are their any maassel out their that just have "plain apple" with no black licorice taste that you guys can recommend? Is AF golden apple one of them, becase i wanted to try it out, but i'm afraid it might have that licorice taste in it...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Al Amir has its sour apple, which isn't a very realistic apple IMO, and Havana makes a bunch of different apple flavors, the special apple being the non-anise one I think, but I could be wrong... I'd go with the Fakher Esk Apple as many people love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalliwag Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Tastes are so variable between people. How anybody can hate seafood for example is beyond me. But while I like most (that I've tried) there is some I do not like. The double-apple I have tried at home that I LOVE is the King Mo'assel with or without the rose added in. The first I tried at a hookah lounge was double apple but I don't know what brand they used. Ever since I started smoking it with the apple cider in the vase it tastes like crap to me with water in the vase now. Too harsh and nasty. At first I took such small hits that it did not bother me. But now that I am used to smoking that does not work too well. Coughing up a lung is not pleasant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsboy Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Double Apple is the #1 smoked brand in the world. Most shisha smokers like licorine or don't mind it. I personally do not hate it but what I don't like is the fruity taste of AF Eleskandarani, or any other flavor with a very strong fruity taste.

MrGuy Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I've tried the el basha apple, and that is liquoricy, its not that strong liquorice so it doesn't bother me but if it was a strong liquorice/anise taste, i would probably hate it. If you don't like it, try mixing it with mint, then you will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Gross. I despise 2xApple, and blame it for the downfall of many a shisha cafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalliwag Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I am not sure if the King Mo'assell just tastes different but I am not picking up on the licorice flavor. Maybe if I tried a different brand I would think it sucked too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheetz Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 well i get a licorice flavor on the inhale and a apple/licorice flavor on the exhale. maybe ill mix it with something. Heh, Ill try grape/apple and Orange/apple. I wonder if the old saying stands for shisa, you cant compare apples and oranges and they dont mix.

methodical13 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I have found, recently actually that I don't like 2 apple by itself. But, mixed with mint it is one of my favorites. I think its a great flavor to mix with others...I just dont like it by itself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
