jonny_lech Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Flavor: Earl GreySetup: Mya Bohemian, folded aluminum foil, 1 large 3Kings QL, cold filtered water in the base.Box is orange and silver and has the "Sheherazade" logo on it, but it also is clearly marked as a Nahkla product. Maybe it's an exotic line for them.Cut is about what you expect from this brand. As usual, it's sticky and gooey, but not dripping with flavor like other brands. It smells like an earl grey tea bag.Flavor: It has an almost black peppery flavor to it. It's sharp. It's not for the fruity inclined. It leaves you with a bit of harshness, but the sheer novelty of the flavor is interesting. It tastes like a peppery earl grey tea. The tea flavor is there, but certainly not as pronounced as one might hope. Smoke: Thick thick thick. Not as billowy as you might think though.Buzz: Typical Nakhla buzz. Strong. Will kick you around if you're not used to it or careful with your hits.In conclusion? It's an interesting flavor. It's not bad. But it's not *good* either. This is a novelty buy. I would keep it around to show off. But I can't see myself buying more of it. I'd go for trading for some to try, rather than simply buying a brick of it.

AKammenzind Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Nakhla SherazadeEarl GreyI picked up a 250 of this from hookah company because I love my earl grey tea. Suffice to say this flavor didn't disappoint!Cut: A bit different from standard nakhla, looked a bit like al waha cut, only with more stems (love em!)Smell: It smelled like a handful of strong earl grey, only stronger.Taste: Tasted like it smelled, very good... the tea flavor is in there, and it's accompanied by a somewhat floral tasting citrus that sort of reminded me of orange zest. Really pretty dead-on earl grey.Smoke: This is the only section that wasn't out of the ordinary, It was pretty much just normal nakhla smoke, but because the flavor had so much bite to it, I was wary of putting extra heat on. It wasn't as fussy with heat as Tangiers, but not far behind. Buzz: Good, strong, relaxing buzz. Overall: 8.5/10 It's a good buy if you like earl grey, or are a fan of k-peach, or florals/citrus in general. I'll be buying more once I run out.

erufiku Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Nakhla Earl GreyTFlavor: A+If you like Earl Grey tea then this is the flavor for you. It's spot on! However, if you're not into the tea I'd recommend just getting a small pack to try it out first.Smoke: A*Typical Nakhla smoke, not as thick as Tangiers or AF. *Added a bit of glycerin and it now produces true thunderclouds.Duration: AAfter adding glycerine the baccy lasts forever. A medium phunnel goes on for about 5-6 hours (although after the 3-4 hours mark there is less flavor).Notes: out of the box, this baccy was a lot juicier than your typical Nakhla. The cut hasn't changed but there were no large stems in my box, just small pieces of stems. I don't think they use food coloring either.Great baccy if you're sick and tired of fruity flavors!

It's kinda like what I would imagine chewing on incense would be haha. I thought it would taste like black tea, kinda nuty, but it doesn't. Idk....just strange i guess.

A lot of people will taste this and have nightmares about it because is is such a bold, complex and unique flavor like the tea that it is a taste is an acquired one.[/size][/font][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukhookah Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Nakhla earl grey Sorry guys for not writting in the format recommended.I'm writting this review on my blackberry lol. I got hold of 50g pack of this. I've had earl grey tea and this shisha smells very similar to the tea. Smoking wise I get a very rich taste of cardamom. Its a pleasent smoke however I couldn't see my self smoking 250g of this. If you like cardamom then its a must try. If your like me, give it a go. I can see why people would rate this. For my taste buds I would give a 6.5/10 very flavoursome. Those who like spicey herbal taste smokes, it probably would get a higher may be 8/10 All I can say is, I enjoyed the smoke. I don't regret smoking or buying a 50g pack. Made a channge to my regular smokes. Cut wetness etc are identical to the other sherazade flavours. Give it a try if your like me you'll enjoy the one off smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning if you like Earl Grey tea get this because they did a good job replicating the flavor.... I guess I just don't like Earl Grey tea. You can always get a 50g pack to sample. Personally I would rate it lower then this but that's not fair just because I didn't care for the flavor. [/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
