Gleemen Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 So last night I went to a local shop to buy some new shisha for that night. I ended up getting Starbuzz Sweet Melon. It smoked really well and I think it was one of my best sessions. After cleaning up I looked at the bottom of the Starbuzz can to see a sticker that says 3/2011 (the can is at home but I'm not sure if it said "good to 3/2011" or just "3/2011"). Is this a big deal?

Chreees Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 It's fine. They put that expiration date on there to cover their ass from lawsuits, more or less. I've had some pretty old and expired stuff and it was just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntur Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 i always thought that was the manufacture date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelLCP Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I think it's the date the batch was made. But if it is the expiration date. Companies are required to put an expiration on products to avoid being sued, like chris said. I've had shisha that was more than 6 months old and it was fine.

Gleemen Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Thanks for the help! Was getting a little paranoid about it but my first instinct was that it can last much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I Order some of the old packaging Romman in H-S clearance section every order. Stuff's at least 2 years old and it's half price and smokes amazing!!!! Only way to smoke Cinnamon is to let it ferment for a couple of years.

hookahbarsandiego Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I would just be careful when using anything expired because after that date you can being seeing signs of mold and such which would not be good to smoke. Usually up to 6 months for Shisha is ok after expiration date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
