D15L Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 After a week of customs needing a new invoice from social smoke and holding it for a weeks time after it was in the city, i finally received my order! Let me first say that the Mya wide hose is HUGE! compared to the regular metal one that comes with the QT. It seriously is twice the diamter of the original. Its pretty damn amazing. I tried it out today twice and to be honest, it barely fit into the QT, the rubber grommet doesn't fit into the end of the hose but it still works when you jus shove the end into there. Still works fine there is nothing wrong with it but wished it woulda fit perfectly. The draw is really easy and allows to inhale even more smoke. Believe or not, but i tried both of the hoses during the same session and the wide hose gave out more flavor. It definitely is a must get! I also had 5 50 grams of different al amir flavors.The first flavor that i tried was strawberry kiwi. It almost had no flavor but could be due to the fact i barely let it acclimate. I did acclimate it for a few hours which should be enough? But it did not have any flavor, there was a hint of sweetness that was it. i will def try it again. I heard that al amir strawberry kiwi was suppose to be very good so hopefully it will give me a better opinion on it next time. There was virtually no buzz which i love about it, and very thick smoke. I used two 3kings coal 33m during the session. More updates to come!

yashman19 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I have some AA straw-kiwi left over from a while back, and I always remember enjoying the stuff back in the day. Virtually no AA flavor gives me any buzz whatsoever, but I tend to like most of the flavors. Good brand IMO.What other AA flavors did you get?

djbomberto Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 who did you go thru to get that hose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D15L Posted September 6, 2006 Author Share Posted September 6, 2006 yeahh i should try it again after i have acclimate it some more. The other flavors i got were mango, watermelon, grape, and kiwi. Just a quick question, when i put on 1 coal, there seems tobe a decent amount of smoke but the flavor isn't quite there yet, when i put on two there seemed to be more flavor. I was wondering how to manage the al amir shisha heat wise. I went through social smoke to get the mya wide hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 call me crazy but the more im smoking, the more im finding acclimation dosent do a damn thing.Im serious when i say i get better smoke going from inside were theres no humidity, to outside on a rainy day, and then packing my bowl and smoking right away. Huge humidity diffrence. So far ive found i actually tend to get a better flavour and thicker smoke when i do this. I dont ever aclimate my shisha anymore, and have had no problems :DAnd as for Al Almir heat management, 2 coals work best, but it burns fast, so i use 1 and a 1/2.

Sonthert Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 But, humidity does have some effect. As my theory goes, tobacco without nicotine tends to need less acclimation...smoking a low-nicotine brand? (Al- Amir is)Besides, its not relative humidity, its absolute humidity or dewpoint. It is probably, roughly the same dewpoint inside as out on a rainy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
