kram Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 alright guys after a seriously long wait my package of fumari finally arrived here in the good old down under. packed a bowl last night and just sat back and enjoyed! fumari: melon medium egyptian with cold water in the base with one of those square like mya bowls. natural coals, i'm really not sure wat brand they are. smell: oooooh mannnnn, it really smelled amazing when i opened it. It smelled like a sweet cantaloupe. i noticed the smell didn't fill the room like an Al Fakher double apple, it was more subtle and classier? cut: it was a very rough cut from what i can tell, the pieces were quite big and there were strange kind of hard pieces in it. no stems though which was really gd. might need to press it down to get abit more leaf in. Flavour: it was just really excellant, one of the best stuff i've smoked yet. not chemical tasting at all and it tasted just like it smelled. smoke: nice and thick, it seemed to not need alot of heat to get it going properly. rating: i'd give this flavor a 9.5, it just smoked and tasted great. i wld say Fakher is smoother, but the taste of the fumari just killed.

brettK Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 nice... ive tried almost all brands, i still have yet to try fumari, I WANT SOME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alqoshnia Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 My favorite Fumari flavors are Blueberry, Watermelon, and Sour Apple. The review you gave fit the same profile as my favorites, so I might include melon in my next Fumari order that way I can compare it with HH melon that Im orderin also. Nice review btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kram Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 fumari-tropical punch smell: it does smell alot like tropical punch, very similar to the cordial version u buy at the store. same as melon, the smell isn't as strong as Fakher. cut: same as melon, quite large pieces that you have to push down alittle to fit more in. flavour: after smoking the melon this honestly doesn't really come up to standard. the tropical flavour was there but it was just slightly chemical like, not too bad but abit of it. it wasn't sickly sweet like Fakher which i appreciated. smoke: it was certainly nice and fluffy, i still can't get it as smooth as Fakher but i think i need to play with the heat abit. overall: i would give this a B-. nice to try but i wldn't really order large amounts. i've also noticed that the tobaccy is very dry and oily compared to other brands. another interesting thing about fumari is that i can burn through and smoke all of the tobacco. after like an hour and a half the flavour was some what still there.

skiracerj1 Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Fumari tropical punch is my all time favorite smoke, although alot of tangiers' stuff gives it a run, but for me nothin beats fumari TP so if your about to make a fumair order Brett be sure to add that flavor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuschultz Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Yeah, the Fumari TP is my favorite smoke. I have never noticed a real chemically smell, but that might just be me. Try letting your stuff acclimate a bit more, then give it another run.I still need to try melon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceinIsrael Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 How does fumari tobacco compare to MY PERSONAL FAV Romman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crepenchicha Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Personally, I don't like Romman, so take this comparison with a grain of salt:I think Fumari lasts much longer and is MUCH more flavorful.Both, unfortunately, are quite expensive. Didn't keep me from ordering a kilo, though... it's just that worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookahnoob Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 When I went to Fumari I bought Vanilla, Passionfruit and Citrus Mint. I dont really like Citrus mint but the others are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
