Mango shihsa


Recommended Posts

Glad to see this post come up. I really like the flavor of mango, but have yet to find one that has a strong mango flavor. Sounds like I need to give Fumari & Havana a try, as I'm still searching for a perfect mango smile.gif

So far I've had:

Nahkla Mango: It was for the first time I'd ever tried Shisha and while I did enjoy it alot. We didn't have the proper set up. She had a cheap plastic hookah that didn't draw very well and no coals, so we just used a lighter to burn it. I think I was more amazed that they could make tobacco taste this good, so I really liked it. But looking back now, I didn't get the clouds of smoke or strong blast of flavor I enjoy. I'm sure it it had to do with the set up.

AW Mango: I purchased this a couple of weeks ago and really like it. Very similar to my experience with Nahkla. I got much better smoke out of it though as I was using my MYA XL chrome. It started out very good but the flavor faded down a little after about 45 min or so.

Starbuzz Mango: I was a little disapointed in this. I always see people talking about how great SB is, but so far I've smoked 2 bowls of it and cant say it's say that it was any better than the Nahkla and I liked the AW better. It didn't have a very strong mango flavor nor thick smoke that I hear SB is known for. It was about equal to the AW after the AW started to fade IMO. What I did find interesting was that I could taste the molasses flavor a little bit as well when I exhaled. Wich I didn't mind.

i've only had nahkla mango, and i would not recommend it. It had a strong, sweet smell. It wasn't really a bad smell, as much as it wasn't a pleasing one. I packed a bowl of it, lit the coals and smoked it for nearly 10 minutes before stopping. It tasted like plastic and left a horrible after taste in my mouth. It so far has probably been my worst experience with shisha

I've had both Al Ajamy and Starbuzz's mango shisha and found them to be excellent smokes. I did notice that the Starbuzz, as is true of many of their flavors, is more of a candylike version.

Not a complaint, mind you, but something to keep in mind if you are looking for a more "truly fruit" flavor.

definitely not the Romman mango.
It isn't... bad.
But its just smoke.
Like... you might as well just smoke the charcoal
because Romman tobacco dries up really fast.


While I never had the mango Romman, I never had the problems you described with their other flavors. On the contrary, I've smoked long sessions with Romman's apple, strawberry and mint.

You haven't tried Mango till you have tried Wild Mango from Fantasia Tobacco. Very smooth, and strong flavor.


I must agree, the Wild Mango from Fantasia remains a favorite of alot of my friends, and alot of first timers. The flavor is incredible. I love it.
