LondonShisha Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Just smoking AF mint straight and noticed the flavour is weaker than it should be. I do mix well before I put it in and haven't done anything different than what I usually do. Clouds are fine, it's not harsh, but just weaker. Setup is a KM with Nammor hose and Vortex bowl Could this be my storage technique? I keep it in the original container (1 kg) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelLCP Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 How old is it? I've always had a strong flavor experience with AF Mint. Usually just store it in the giant bag it comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonShisha Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 Opened it about 3 months ago I think. It was strong when I first opened it hence i'm thinking it might be my storage technique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehelios Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 My AF mint experience has always been good when first opened but have never been able to keep that cold to the throat feeling when it becomes aged no matter how well it's been sealed.

peaceman27 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Hmm. I didn't used to store my AF mint in any special container (until it became one of my staples). But I've never noticed a change in flavor. At the same time I don't buy more than a month's worth at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abzy Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I had a KG tub I normally take it out the bag and store it in the tub. I find af tubs seal quite well flavour did not change over a 6 month period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ihookah Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Mint is meant to be mixed with a flavor not smoked alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 AF mint does drop it's intensity while being stored. Even air tight, unless you are using solid glass containers. Plastic's a pain that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ihookah Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I smoke AF mint everyday with double apple so your comment is a complete fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 is it? Btw, no shisha is made primarily to be mixed. Mint is a very good mixer, I'll give you that, but it does not mean that it's meant to be only a mixer. so fail...well..yeah,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
