grock Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Helloooo all; I am currently searching for a great coconut flavor, and so far, my search has been pretty unsuccessful. My friend and I tried a great one years back at a lounge, but I wasnt able to find out the brand. So far we have used AF Coconut, but we didnt really enjoy it, wasnt close to our previous experience. Does anyone have any ideas? It can be more pina colada, but overall, we want that coconut flavor! Hope someone can shed some light on our search! :D Thanks, Glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rani Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I've never found what I consider to be a great coconut. Tried every one I could get my hands on, but they were all almost like super strength coconut extract added instead of what I would consider real flavor. For me coconut should be like coconut cream pie, or macaroons. Sweet, creamy, with a faint roasted background note. Even the master himself Eric couldn't pull it off. It might be one of those flavors that is just plain out of reach. 'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoapplesplease Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Salloum coconut I like coconut and have tried a good many brands with this flavor. Salloum wins this one with ease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â€On Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 If you're not looking for super distinct coconut, the Nak Mix line has Shisha On The Beach, which has a good coconut flavor to it IMO. Smokes awesome like any nak too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ih303 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I actually like both AF coconut and kiwi. The kiwi doesn't really taste like kiwi much but it's a good flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I liked nakhla's coconut, wasn't super strong, was creamy, and nice. Never had any other coconut though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I love mixing af kiwi with fantasia lucky! cuzzins has a REALLY good watermelon kiwi premix, but I haven't had their kiwi by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerdy Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Cocojumbo is the coconut lime from star buzz. I didn't like it, too sweet for me. I don't think there is a solid coconut flavor out there IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a good flavor, but to each his own. and yah a true coconut flavor is just hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 MIxes are a bit easier to handle. I had Tonic Coconut Mint last night and it was pretty good, the mint hid the artificial portion of the coconut flavoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Tangiers Coconut is my favourite (yeah I know right?). Its not sweet really... its very oily but authentic brown coconut taste (as opposed to the green young coconuts with the soft pulp inside). Its great as a mixer because it adds creaminess. I recommend it usually if you want to add a cream taste without the caramel. I like with is New Lime, Strawberry, and Orange Soda. I've heard its also excellent with New Lemon/Lime. AF coconut makes me sick to even think about. I'm interested in trying the Salloum though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
