benny Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Hey guys tried a bowl of fresh strawberry Al Fakher shisha, pardon my poor review technique it'll improve with time.Setup: Nargila: Mya QT, standard hose and bowl. Coal: Natural Lemonwood coals heated on a butane stoveliquid in vase: Tap water, no ice or additives.Bowl packing: Left 2mm gap (or thereabouts) between the rim and shisha. 2 layers of foil, large amount of holes pricked with a safety pin. Fairly packed in. I prefer 2 layers, coz it really limits the ease of burning the shisha, even if it takes longer to heat up.Cut: Typical Al-Fakher cut. Very fine, absolutely soaked in juices. Smell: Has a distinct coconut scent to it, with the strawberry scent present too.Smoke: Being an incredibly juicy shisha, it took me a good while to get it going (could have been the two layers of foil too). Typical Al-Fakher smoke, just the right thickness (above average in my books). Flavour: Distinct Strawberries and cream. Consistant, smooth and sweet flavour that was a hit with my guests too.Buzz: definate Nicotine presence. Took a while, but once the thick, heavy draws were coming, the headspins werent far behind (and im no lightweight)Rating: 9/10. A definate hit, would have liked a slightly more strawberryish flavor but still fantastic all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 The regualr AF strawberry wasn't too bad. The GS Strawberry was dissapointing after the SG ESK apple. $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
