Purple Haze

Fantasia Purple Haze

Bought off www.hookahpalace.blogspot.com

Setup : Mya QT, Razan, Egyptian bowl (using natural wood charcoal)

Smell : I can't really pinpoint what this stuff smells like. But it sort of smells like a grape juice with a hint of citrus there.

Flavor : Like, well grape juice and a little bit of citrus, lime most likely. Also has this subtle earthy flavor to it, maybe like chocolate or something, but i can barely taste it. Weird flavor, a bit chemically though.

Buzz : None.

Duration : 1 hour on my egyptian bowl.

Overall : Nothing really special about this flavor. It's weird though for my taste buds. Not one of my favorites from Fantasia. My personal rating would be a 4/10 but from a neutral point of view this would be a 7/10.

I just got a 50g sample with my order from MNHookah, and I had to review it:

Fantasia Purple Haze

Smell: Extremely sweet. Just sweet. (9/10)
Taste:Very sweet. Tastes a bit like cotton candy. (9.5/10) (My first 9.5 flavor rating)
Smoke Thickness: Quite good. Comparable to SB. (9/10)
Buzz: Mild
Duration: I've been smoking it for 30 minutes, and decided I had to rate it. I will be purchasing 250g of this with my next order.

Overall: 9.5/10. I love it.

Purple Haze

Setup- 27 inch chiller syrian, phunnel bowl, 3K coals

Appearance- Kinda a mix between medium and long cut. There were a lot of little stems and it was disgustingly red. This stuff beats out Al Fakher in the dye department hands down

Smell- This stuff definitely smelled like a grape candy or bubblegum. It also had some really weird smell, best way to describe it was like cheap vodka. Actually this shisha smells like cheap grape vodka alltogether! (so much a bad thing I guess)

Smoke- Took a few minutes but the clouds were nice and big

Taste- It didn't really taste like much. On the inhale it tasted sweet and on the exhale you got a slight taste of the "grape". Really dissapointing actually.

Buzz- Not very much of one, and I get buzzes from smoking AF!

Overall- 5/10 This really smelled like it was going to be decent and ended up being flavorless. For how much this stuff costs, it should have some kind of flavor.

[b]Purchased From:[/b] Gift from Stuie

[b]Overall:[/b] 9/10, it took a lot more heat than i am used to. i normally only use 2 CH QLs and this took 3. It also took a long time to get started. This stuff loves heat! The taste was good, but light. It would be nice if the taste was a bit stronger. I got great clouds off this stuff, bigger than with Tangiers, but not as dense. If they boosted the flavor and it didn't need so much heat, this would get a 10/10 for sure. I really want more of this stuff, as long as its not too expensive, I will be purchasing more in the future.

[b]Taste:[/b] before it goes in the bowl, it tastes like grape. While being smoked, it tastes like grape.

[b]Purchased From:[/b] Local tobacconist

[b]Overall:[/b] 9.5/10. As previously stated, you really have to turn up the heat. Besides that though, I can't complain, and the price is reasonable.

Side Note: If you take a medium phunnel and split the "doughnut" 50/50 with Incredible Hulk, and you remember where the division line is, putting one coal on each flavor is effin awesome.

[b]Smell:[/b] Almost perfumey, somewhat fruity...
[b]Smoke:[/b] Nice and thick
[b]Flavor:[/b] Slightly bitter on the draw. Kind of perfumey, but not as much as it smelled pre-smoke. [i]Slightest [/i]hint of grape.

[b]Purchased From: [/b]Appleton Souvenir and Cigar Co.

[b]Overall: [/b]7.5/10. I wouldn't buy it again because I know there's better stuff out there, but it was a pleasant smoke nonetheless. The taste is more for a sophisticated crowd that doesn't want to smoke something that's straight up fruit, although I wish they'd change the name to something more sophisticated.
