buzz: 8 usually only mint buzzes me, but the watermelon makes me feel pretty good
session time: pretty good, about an hour

initially i bought a 50 gram, the smoke was great and the flavor was excellent, afterwards i bought a 250 grm tub, it was always harsh. i think the tub was just in a bad batch or something...but the 50 grm box was unbeatable, i got it from Jerusalem in Houston, for those of you in Houston

Thanx to Neal in Vegas, I got some of this. Thanx so much cause I am officially hooked! Back to the subject though, this stuff was incredible! The smell was great and it tasted like super jolly rancher watermelon! The smoke was terrific and the flavor lasted forever. I think this is the best I've had from AF.

Cut: Finely cut.

Appearance: A reddish-pink appearance, a few stems

Smoke: Smoke was good. Thick, but not the thickest I've ever had.

Overall: This stuff wasn't bad (I didn't hate it). The flavor was great, but I can't say that I truly enjoyed the session.

Al Fakher Watermelon

Setup: 30" single house Nour, KM hose, mid size Egyptian bowl, 2 gold QL's


Appearance - Very little to no stems. Good old AF cut.

Smell - Strong watermelon. Almost too strong, but still good.

Taste - Watermelon. Such a clear and defined taste to it. Very nice.

Buzz - Pretty chill. Just laid back.

Smoke - THICK.

Length - Probably around 45 min. Once the coals went out it was game over, but the shisha definitely had a lot of life left.

Overall - 9/10. Pretty close to perfect. It's been a staple in my stash for awhile now. Edited September 27, 2008 by mitchard

[duckhater]

Watermelon

Setup - KM Pharonie, Egyptian bowl, Razan Hose, Coconara's, Ice in base, Heba Diffuser

Appearance - Very little to no stems. AF cut with red dye, juicy...somewhere between Tangiers and Nakhla

Smell - Strong Watermelon bubbalicious gum with a strong alcohol scent to

Taste - Watermelon harshness. The alcohol smell came through in the taste and burns the throat on the exhale

Buzz - Very little

Smoke - Semi-thick not typical AF

Length - 15 min. Couldn't get past the harshness

Overall - 3/10. It tasted like watermelon, but the harshness made the session unbearable. This isn't along the lines of other peoples experiences so I'm chalking it up to just me being unlucky with the tub I got


***Edit - I decided to give it another try, got a 50g sample as part of a pack, still had same fermented harshness on it, not as bad but definitely still there maybe a 3.5 this time*** Edited October 4, 2008 by duckhater

[modisess]

Al Fakher Watermelon

Setup : Mya QT, Razan, Mya Bowl (With 2 cocos on top)

Smell : Amazing. Sweet, candyish, perfumey watermelon! Just like those car air fresheners dangly thingy.

Flavor : Delicious, tasted exactly how it smells! Very sweet on the inhale and super sweet on the exhale. Really good flavor on this one. Sometimes the flavor would be extremely overpowering, so it'll be hard to take massive drags.

Duration : 1 hour and 15 minutes approximately.

Buzz : Nice, fresh relaxing buzz.

Overall : I would really like to taste this mixed with some mint. It would be delicious. But this is a good smoke on it's own. Very delicious, I would keep buying this again. 9/10

Note : The tobacco wasn't as red as other AF's I have seen.

[Stuie]

Al Fakher Watermelon

Hookah: Mya Bambino
Bowl: Small Phunnel
Screen/Foil: Reynolds HD
Hose: Nammor
Coals: Coconaras
Base Liquid: Water

Appearance: Short Cut, several stems, moist and tons of red dye
Nicotine: 0.05%
Base: Molasses & Glycerin
Smell: Sugary Candy Smell
Taste: Like a watermelon candy covered in sugar
Smoke: Good Clouds
Buzz: None
Duration: 2 Hours

Purchased From: Hookah-Shisha.com

Overall: 6/10 It's a good flavor but it's not one for me. Way to candyish. It's like sucking on Turkish Delight Watermelon Style in the most possible intense way. I just can't take it. I know people love, but I prefer will Watermelon taste like Romman's Watermelon.

[dafunk5446]

Al Fakher Watermelon:

Smell/Flavor: Strong candy watermelon smell with alcohol undertone, tastes the same minus alcohol. VERY STRONG FLAVOR

Cut: Normal AF cut

Smoke: Clouds upon clouds

Buzz: No buzz.

Amount(approx)/Duration: 1 1/2 hours.

Hookah Type: Km Exotica.

Hose: Km deluxe hose.

Bowl: Tangiers Small Phunnel

Foil/Screen: Hd Ren Foil, lots o' holes

Coal/Amount: 2 Al Awa'el, 2 more to round it out.

Liquid in Base: Aqua

Overall satisfaction (scale 1 to 10): 9/10 Why 9 and not 10 you ask? Cause I can't smoke this alone!!!!!! Out of the 550 grams I have smoked of this stuff, it has all been too harsh alone. No, its not a heat management issue, its just the shisha, even with 1/2 a coal on there, and very little smoke, I still hack up a lung. I am convinced it is the alcohol smell that is doing this. I have started acclimating it and it has gotten better, but it still isn't 100% yet. I have also started mixing it with vanilla (since vanilla isnt a strong flavor and is sweet like the watermelon) and a pinch of mint (to take the bite out of the watermelon) and it is awesome, best mix yet, and it still tastes like watermelon.

[acolon_5]

Al Fakher Watermelon

Setup: Mya Vertex, room temerpature water, Mya Bowl, 3 kings coal, metal screen.

Smell: smells strong, almost candy like

Cut: Red + Wet Wet Wet, few small stems

Smoke: dense, thick, white clouds

Buzz: More than expected, I smoke cigs on a daily basis, but was quite suprised that this buzzed me more than unwashed tobacco.

Flavor: First 10 minutes the taste/smell was overpowering... I mean this was like jolly rancher powerful, after 10 minutes it calmed down to a very pleasant watermelon flavor.

Longevity: I smoked for a little over an hour, it is waiting for round 2.

Overall: 8/10 Very nice once the flavor calmed down. I think I like a little less flavor overall though.

AF Watermelon

Chinese Hookah
Glass Bowl
3 Kings Coals
Water in Vase

This is one of the best watermelons I have ever smoked, flavor is all there and delicious, wet like any other AF and really easy to work with. Smokes great and for the price I'm definitely gonna pick up another 250g tub. 8/10

Second time around I got Arizona Watermelon juice/drink and put that in the vase, absolutely amazing, even better than before, the flavor was unreal, smoke was great as usual, and I will never smoke the watermelon without putting the Arizona Watermelon drink in the bottom again. 9.5/10

I'd definitely recommend this watermelon to anyone wanting watermelon shisha.

AF Strawberry

Same setup as above, but I don't know if I packed it poorly but I've smoked it twice and the flavor just isnt there, you get a slight tinge of the flavor at the end but it just tastes burnt, didn't enjoy it at all, took about a half an hour-45 minutes to get more flavor then still it wasnt that great and I had to stop smoking to go to class. Smoke was there and the shisha was wet as usual with AF. Give it a shot in a 50g box, but IMO its not worth buying a tub of. 5/10

[Weavit]
