Twitchy Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 are they still good quality coals? i know there "suppose" to be but i just wanted to make sure before i order a bunch of them †i haven't personally used them in 1-2 years but if they are still some of the better coals i may start ordering them from here in canada to save on shipping †Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshinx23 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 never had a bad batch to date, they burn well, don't smell, just burn hotter then the rest but that is, easy to get use to. Maybe I have been just lucky but i love them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wek-sos Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I only had a bad batch 2 summers ago. Occasionally they need freezing or baking to get rid of a little moisture, but I haven't needed to do that in about a year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitchy Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 good to hear ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 The last few times I used them (probably 6 months ago) they were giving off a smell while lighting an I got a slight headache when smoking. Before that though I'd never had any issues, coulda just been a random bad batch, or even knockoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchyfam Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 too pricey wouldnt purchase them unless youre getting a good deal. they burn hot and the sides get black and crumble faster then any other coals i have used. once again i mean they are good coals but not as good as everyone says it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I got 5 boxes of the newest version and they're legit. Haven't had any troubles whatsoever so far and I'm on box number 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â€On Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I preferred Razans over them big time, but I can't in good conscience support Mahir in any way, so I switched to Coco Ultimates. They are not perfect, but for the price I can't complain at all. I only use coco's with the lotus anyways, so it's not a huge deal. With foil, nothing beats GC (and really, there isn't much that even comes close in my books). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CO_hookah Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I love them. As far as cocos go, I've never had any issue with taste, smell, or any other problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassie! Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I'm still pluggin away on a few boxes never had any issues with them and no taste. They can make my appartment a bit smelly but anything beats QL coals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king_lunchb0x Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 They do seem to last a little more than coco ult. But there is usually 2-4$ difference between the 2, It might equal out for you since you pay way more for shipping to canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitchy Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Yeah that's what I'm thinking I just made a order thru 5star with. Coals said 105 for shipping (3 boxes ) without 50-55 ... That's a joke unless there shipping calculator is off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 If you do like ultimates twitchy send me a pm, I give the lowest pricing on international orders. I won't make a dime on shipping. As for the coconaras, they are very good coals. For the price, I think ultimates are a much better bang for your buck, BUT as I said, coconara can charge a premium since they are damn good coals. Only thing I don't like about them is they burn really hot, hotter than ultimates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
