  1. Big T, how's it going? I just moved to Japan and have a 32" Dahab Alaim Temsaah & 1250g of Tangiers on the way. Looking forward to showing a few local bar owners how it's done. And if all goes well and I meet the right people, maybe I'll someday have a place of my own over here, servin up the good stuff. Heard you've got a new location -- hope the move was smooth and all...

  2. I've made my own kashmir guava mixes in the past and it's amazing. I'm sure the official product will be even better...
  3. I really hope somebody works this out someday. If smoking hookah no longer involved inhaling burning charcoal, it would probably eliminate most or all of whatever health risks are associated with this kind of smoking.
  4. My guess is that it would smoke about the same as your other Mya hookahs. The high price, I think, comes from components that have no bearing on the actual functionality of the piece. If I was gonna blow that much money on a single hookah I'd probably be looking at Meduse pipes... http://www.medusedesign.com
  5. I've been pushing kashmir guava for a while. It's a delicious combo.
  6. Argh... I'm moving to Japan in a month and can't decide whether or not I should order these now so I can smoke the hell out of them before I go...
  7. [quote name='momatik' date='21 June 2010 - 03:09 PM' timestamp='1277125798' post='472307'] There is actually a cigar shop in Philly right off of South St (2nd or 3rd St.) that carries 50 g packages of Tangiers. Good selection, overpriced though. [/quote] Yeah, SJ Cigars I think. Last time I was there, they weren't calling it Tangiers -- they were calling it "Delicioso" or something ridiculous like that. And yeah, prices are outrageous...
  8. scraped together the tiniest scraps of kashmir peach to savor that final bowl. Another 250g gone... oh, the transience of things...

  9. Philly, right outside northern libs.
  10. Yeah, SJ Cigars in Philly. Don't bother -- it's way overpriced.
  11. Tasty peach with clove is one of my favorite mixes. I usually call it cleach or peeve.
  12. A mulling spice apple flavor would be awesome. I also second sandalwood vanilla. I have a sandalwood vanilla shaving soap and it is amazing. Speaking of soap... Eric maybe you should go visit the site I buy my shaving soap from and see if it doesn't give you some inspiration. Everytime I buy a new shaving soap, I wish I had it as a tobacco flavor as well... http://mamabearssoaps.com/index.php?main_p...&cPath=1_25
  13. QUOTE (Zinite @ Jul 12 2009, 09:44 PM) QUOTE (cymptom @ Jul 12 2009, 09:32 AM) As a lover of green tea I was so pumped for the green tea flavor, but found it to be really disappointing. I guess it tastes like the green tea drinks put out by Snapple or Arizona, which don't taste like green tea at all. Just... sweetness over top of a generic tea flavor. I was hoping for some matcha or sencha taste I wouldn't discourage you from trying it. It didn't taste like a "sweet green tea" at all. It had a sweet flavor to it, but it definitely tasted like an actual cup of green tea on the second try (acclimated twice for 10 hours total, sealed for 20 hours total). I acclimated mine for a total of a few days -- it never seems to make a difference for me, though. Perhaps it tastes like an actual cup of green tea -- with sugar,which really masks the flavor of the tea...
  14. I guess I should that it IS a pleasant smoke. I just don't think it should be called green tea. Eric: how much does the flavor composition differ from Red Tea? It tastes almost the same, just a bit sweeter -- which is confusing to me, because green tea is naturally more bitter than red and black teas... (What happened to the edit post function?)
