navy876 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Okay im going to be trying this Shisha out. I here it gives off great feelings, If ya know what I mean. Just wanted to know how well it takes heat? Is it like AF low heat or SB High heat? & what flavor do you recommend I try? -Many Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 It is VERY heat tolerant. You have to really try to get this stuff to get harsh on you. it's also simple to pack.. anyway you throw it into a bowl, as long as there is airflow to take your pull, it'll smoke great. By far the easiest tobacco to smoke. As far as flavors to try, if you like double apple (DA) flavors, their DA is one of my favorites. Also the Mizo line is really good. I've only dabbled in a few nakhla flavors as I always buy DA, so that's all I can recommend. But most of their flavors are supposed to be very good as well.

I hear Elmas Clay Bowls are the way to smoke for this specific brand. Please correct me if im wrong. What I dont understand is which Elmas Clay Bowl to get. I hear about Female adapter or Male adapter. Something like that. But if it helps, I smoke out of a KM. http://www.nazarhookah.com/hookahs/elmas-nargile/elmas-bowls-adapters?zenid=pergjhlgcb844maqqjf6vkqjh3 How well does it take heat?

navy876 Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 Only question left is can I use an Egyptian bowl, or should I rock with an Elmas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang67n Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 An elmas will not fit. Elmas are male bowls whereas most bowls are female. An egyptian bowl works GREAT with nakhla. Elmas bowls are excelent too, but only fit on a female bowl ports. Unless you jimmy rig something. Either way, your egyptian will be great.

KasbahBazaar Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Egyptian bowl FTW. An Elmas bowl will not fit on your hookah. Nakhla is made in Egypt so go with the Egyptian bowl. Mizo will go great in a phunnel, but it's not necessary, just helps since Mizo is really wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_lunchb0x Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Their melon blend is pretty good el basha grape is not bad earl grey is really strong (i dont like but some do) nakhla is a great smoke. Flavor tends to be a bit more mild but clouds r great and the buzz can get ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're using a KM hookah, the best bowl for Nakhla you will want to use is the standard Egyptian clay bowl that came with it. Elmas bowl is great, but only if you're using a Turkish or Syrian hookah with a female bowl port. By "great feelings," you mean buzz, right? If so, then yes, we know what you mean. Nakhla is pretty darn good in the buzz department. My favorite flavor so far (NOTE THIS WILL PROBABLY CHANGE ONCE MIZO BLUEBERRY IS AVAILABLE HERE IN THE STATES!!! CAN YOU TELL I'M EXCITED FOR THIS FLAVOR???) is one Arcane on here "created"- Guavamelon. It's Mizo Guava and Mizo Watermelon mixed together. You can try mixing it different ratios; I can't remember the exact ratio he uses. I think most of the time I just do 50/50. Been a while since I've smoked it to be honest, but have some on the way currently! Both of these flavors are also excellent by themselves. I also really enjoy Mizo Peach (OG Peach is just about as good, not much difference), Mizo Orange (same thing as Peach as far as OG Orange goes), Sweet Melon, Cola, Tropicana, Cappucino, Caramel, Mizo Gum... These are just MY favorites. Get a good idea of what people say is good and pair that with what flavors seem appealing to you. Btw, the new Mizo flavors Blueberry and Lychee are listed on Nakhla's site, y'all! Sorry Navy, got sidetracked there, haha... But yeah man, hope we help you out and really end up enjoying Nakhla! I love it, and many others here do as well.

Floataround Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 My favorite bowl to smoke Nakhla out of it my OG crown classic. A newer crown classic will work great too, or an Egyptian clay bowl like many have said. My favorite Nakhla flavors are DA, and Sweet Melon. Both are great flavors. I am really excited for Mizo Blueberry as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rani Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I love original Nakhla for it's subtlety. It's not an "in your face" candy taste that so many modern hookah tobaccos seem to have these days. I'm crazy about their El Basha Caramel. Go through a kilo a month. And their original Sweet Melon? If I have a bowl going with guests in the house I can't get rid of them until the bowl is long dead. They just keep coming back for more. Earl Grey is too strong for me too, but I'm thinking it could be a decent add to flavor up other things. I find Nakhla's fruit flavors lacking a bit, and I've just never been crazy about the Mizo line for some reason. I primarily pack tight in an Egyptian, but when in a hurry it does just fine with it thrown in there any old way too. As far as buzz is concerned, nothing buzzes me anymore, not Tangiers Noir, not Nakhla, not even smoking dokha. Too tolerant. Which I don't mind at all, because I never did smoke for buzz so it's kinda cool that I don't have to be circumspect about picking whatever to smoke.

Coyote Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I like Nakla Sweet Melon. Their DA is ok. Whatever I'll smoke it but its not anisey enough for me. I think I've had their plum, strawberry and rose but they are nothing to write home about. Nak Rose I can only enjoy if I'm really in the mood for it. Otherwise its just a soapy disgustling headache inducing torture session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawhee Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 You cant go wrong with nakhla DA, I like their mint a lot, guava is also wonderful. I also like peach and mizo cherry a lot. As far as heat goes just go all out, nakhla can take it well, no worries about burning it (And if you do just give it a few mins to cool off and its back to normal. Also,I find mod bowl works better than egyptian for it (dont crucify me folks ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICKSTER 1977 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I dont know if you guys have heard about their semi-new flavors like cosmopolitan, Ice-lemon,Flames, Brandy or Shisha on the beach but those flavors have bold yet smooth taste that Nakhla has been famous for. Of course DA started it all for Nakhla but I think they are quickly turning some of their new flavors into instant favorites. I know the blueberry will be available like in 3 months and yet there is so many people already making big buzz about. I myself cant wait to try it, Im a big fan and like to try all new flavors to give a thumbs up or down and so far have not been disapointed with the quality. Ever since I discovered the double or even tripple heads and the mixture of say Vanilla and Strawberry each time I smoke it makes it that much better.

Hassouni Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Nakhla is the original and possibly best. DA and Sweet Melon are the two classic flavors of all time along with old AF grape Lemon, mint, strawberry, coconut and orange are great Mizo peach is sublime Mizo guava is like eating a guava, it's freaky-accurate Mizo watermelon is remarkably un-candylike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grock Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Double Apple and Peach are my favorites so far. Peach is really floral. Ive tried a ton of their flavors. I recently tried mango and it was kind of gross. Maybe I just got a bad box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
