[b]Nakhla Tropicana[/b]

Set up - Mya QT with Mya egyptian head.

Coals - 1 33mm Three Kings coal

Cut - Usual Nakhla cut. Very small tobacco, a medium moistness.

Smell - At first it smells like grapefruit (sort of...), but after having the package open for a while, it starts to smell like my Nakhla Melon - like straight up ass.

Taste - Ever eaten a real grapefruit? It's really tart/sour. Throughout my session, I kept thinking that this grapefruit needs more sugar. Very realistic taste.

Smoke thickness - very thick with a full 33mm Three Kings coal. Died off after about an hour. Still smoking fine, though.

Buzz - No buzz. I think I'm too used to the high nicotine percentage of Al Waha.

Duration - well...I'm at a little past 1 hour and it's still going. This is with the Mya bowl.

Overall - 8/10. Very realistic taste. The smell of just the tobacco is horrible after about 10 minutes, but the smell while smoking is like a real grapefruit, with a little tobacco smell. Overall great.

Nahkla Tropicania

Shisha Cut: typical nahkla; course and oil, dark brown in color.
Hookah Type: 22" Eypgtian w/ standard clay bowl and foil
Coal: 2" dinamite natural coal finger

Smoke: thick
Buzz: heavy
Time: 15 min (before I stopped)

Smell: Smell was strong; overly fruity and heavy on the citrus.
Taste: Taste was gross; sickenly sweet taste, mix-mash of fruit and lemon. Very strong and overpowering.

Rating (1 to 10): 2

I am glad I only bought a 50g pack of this flavor as the smell & taste (most importantly) was horrible. The smell was strong, the taste even worse - it was a horrible mix/mash of fruit + lemon, overpowering and somewhat nauseating. After 15 min of fighting w/ it I gave up and tossed the whole thing (even the unused portion).

Perhaps mixed (lightly) with mint it may have been smokable, but as it was, I considered unsmokable. I was told it was "love or hate" - I hate it tongue.gif

Nakhla Tropicana

Hookah: Mya Mini Acrylic

Bowl: Medium Phunnel with tealight mod

Smell: Very powerful and nose clearing smell. We came to a conclusion that it was mostly grapefruit and pineapple.

Texture: Somewhat large cut and typical Nakhla moisture

Buzz: Good and got heavy initially

The smoke-out: I had about 12 different people try it out and everyone loving it. The flavor lasted well over an hour and actually put out some decent smoke.

Grade: 9/10, I am for sure buying this again.

Tropicana

Hookah: Mya QT
Bowl: Mya Bowl
Foil: 1 layer HD Foil
Hose: Nammor
Coals: 3, 1/2 Coconaras
Base: Water

Appearance: Standard Nakhla cut, brown color, a few big stems
Nicotine: 0.5%
Smell: This one is a little hard to describe. It kinda smells like grapefruit kinda...maybe some pineapple.
Taste: Very impressed with the taste. Started out a bit slow at first, really picked up about 10 minutes in. It tastes sour on the inhale, not much flavor, but on the exhale it tastes like a combo of grapefruit, pineapple, and banana possibly. At the very least a good fruit mix. Intense taste.
Smoke: Huge white clouds without having to sacrifice flavor.
Buzz: Good buzz. Felt it slightly.
Duration: 45 minutes

Overall: 9.3/10 I'm taking some points off for the fact that the smell of the smoke lingers in the room if you smoke inside. It has been 5 hours since I have smoked and the room still smells. I got a comment from my girlfriend that it smelled like a mix of grapefruit and NHT, but that's just her I guess. I also think the flavor on the exhale could be stronger. Very good flavor with very good smoke. Def give it a try. It would also be a great sour mixer.

Overall: [/b]8.5/10. It is good but not incredible. If you overheat it, it gets bitter and gross. When heated properly tastes like a sour grapefruit with a little undertone of something, can't put my finger on it. I overall enjoyed it and will keep it around.
