hookah whore Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I recently purchased five 50g boxes of Nakhla. I am new to this, and my husband and I purchased our 1st hookah and tobacco while in Vegas and had no knowledge of the different brands until coming home and accessing this site. If we did, we wouldn't have bought Nakhla. The flavors we have are vanilla, strawberry, mango, mixed fruit, and melon. We have used a small amount of each flavor and I honestly cannot handle the feeling it gives me. I wanted to know if anyone who likes this brand wants to either buy it or trade it for another brand? (Preferably Al Amir or another washed tobacco). PM me if interested. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenuineHookahs Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Nakhla has its bright spots and brim spots...Personally there are a few flavors by them that I just can't stand smoking...On the other hand I have had some of my best smokes using Nakhla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersianPride Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I am surprised you don't like Nakhla melon among the lower prized brands it is one of the best melon flavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenuineHookahs Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I have yet to try the melon flavor. Are you talking about the sweet melon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twoappler Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 WOW, i have never in my life and years of smoking heard that about Nakhla....I would have to say al amir would be a step in the WRONG direction....but personal preferance I suppose....sounds to me like you are not blending correctly or you use shitty coals or something....

GenuineHookahs Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Ya i love nakhla lol, thats why its the only brand we sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skiracerj1 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I dunno, nahkla has its place but its not for everyone, its a good basic tobacco, but if u dont like nicotine then its definately not for you, al amir is a good choice I'd say, based on what your looking for, so is fumari, al fahker, and havana, if you live close to a smoker friendly they carry havana for reasonable prices.

Nakhla isn't... so therefore, Nakhla has more nicotine. AA gives less of a buzz and is there for the flavor and the pure enjoyment of the smoke... I believe she just doesn't like the buzz of it.

PersianPride Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Yep sweet melon or rock melon depending on where you live in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htdsngup Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Melon is my faovite flavor in any brand. I find Nakhla melon to be pretty good but i really disagree with i think yash? was it him? that said it was the best melon.And the nicotine has never given my any problems. being a smoker i really dont ever get buzzed. I want Tangiers to make a .75 mg line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownZero Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Nakhla is a pretty good tobacco especially when considering the price. I've recently smoked grape and double apple, both really enjoying, easy to maintain and thick smoke. This forum sort of made me biased against Nakhla at the beginning, so I avoided it... but after trying it, I wasn't disappointed and do not mind a smoke from Nakhla.

ghostofdavid Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 It is what I used to buy with my first hookah several years ago. In fact, it is all I could find. I didn't like it then, but I might like it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasa Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Al Amir is a perfect brand for a beginner. Thats the brand I started with (well of course i STARTED with nakhla, but i REALLY started with AA). It has pleasant but not overpowering buzz, the flavors are very vivid, the smoke is sweet, and its VERY easy to get the stuff to smoke properly. Some brands require some degree of "expertise" to get them to smoke well. Al Amir bowls are pretty hard to screw up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 HW: As you can see, Nakhla is the one shisha that can get this kind of reply..a real love it or hate it kinds thing. I'd say your discomfort is definitly your coals combined with the higher nicotine content.I don't have much AA to trade I'm afraid, you may end up having to go online and getting a sample pack someplace.
