Barnaby Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) I just got my hookah a few weeks ago, and loaded up on a bunch of Romman samples, as if you believe everything you read on hookah-shisha's site, it's the bomb.. This is of course before I started reading this forum. Anyways, I've tried their Mango, Strawberry, and Ivory Coast thus far. I still have Melon, fruit punch, coconut, and peach to try.Mango was the best out of the ones I've tried so far. It tasted alittle like Mango, smoked OK, but has little to no buzz. Overall, it's nothing worth getting again. Strawberry doesn't taste like strawberries. I have no idea what it did taste like. While not horrible, definately not good. Ivory Coast is their pineapple/grapefruit combo. This tastes like shit. Sorry.. it's horrible.. Like citrus flavored burnt rubber.. While it had and abundance of flavor, the over powering sour grapefuit was not enjoyable. My wife got a headache just smelling it in the room. LOL.. So, so far.. Romman has failed to deliver for it's price. And their natural charcoal is for shit too. Way too inconsistent. I have some Tangiers Kashmir Peach coming, so hopefully that will be something fun.. I want to give AF a whirl too, as this seems to be one of the more popular ones reading around.

Capt. Morgan Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 For the most part I've had decent experiences with Romman but its too temperamental as far as the heat management gos for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

staygone Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) Still got 50g of Good Times that came with my Paragon. Tried different flavors once and steered clear from peach, mango, and tropical fruit cocktail thingy. Didn't produce the clouds, taste, ease of heat management, etc. like Tangiers always does.For that price and 250g of Tangiers, I think i'll stick with that.BUT, if you do like Romman, I'm not going to rag on you. I respect your decision. Any support for the hookah industry will do.-QM Edited July 16, 2008 by QuiltedMaple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
