Krautle87 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Being new to shisha, I've only tried three flavors, Strawberry, Flower, and Mango. The strawberry was Naklah, I'm not sure what the other two were, since I had them at a resturant. I liked the Nakala, but I've heard it's not the best. What would you suggest for a good balance of flavor and "buzz"?Also, how are bannana and cola? Those two sounded particularly good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersianPride Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Cola is definately, IMO, the better of the non-fruity flavours. And if you pour some Coke into the base it really can give it that cola taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skiracerj1 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 i think the "flower" you had was actually rose. And as far as buzz goes nahkla is right up there, it just lacks in some flavors, but its not AS bad people make it out to be really, however if you want so higer quality stuff that still has nicotine you should check out Tangiers. Also consider layalina and al waha, though some would debate how much better those two are versus nahkla. From my experience banana usually tastes like banana bread, and cola is very dependant on the brand, nahkla cola from what i remember isnt the greatest, everyone seems to like Al Fahker Cola, but thats low nicotine content, so its a trade, al waha probably isnt a bad compromise though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onion Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 So the big unwashed brands are Nahkla, Al Waha, and Tangiers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krautle87 Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 I'm guessing that the "unwashed" means the nicotine has not been removed, as opposed to the "washed" brands? Very helpful, skiracer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpimpitox Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Tangiers is high quality stuff its not for beginners tho you have 2 have your technique down. this stuff is a lot stronger than your normal nahkla/al waha stuff but is ohh so good!

MrGuy Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 unwashed means its had non of the nicotine removed and normally has 0.3 - 0.6% nicotine.washed has had some nicotine removed and normally has 0.03 - 0.06% nicotine.In case you didn't guess, the buzz is mainly caused by nicotine (and oxygen deprivation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Al Qema (Might be spelled wrong) is also full nicotine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Al Waha Cola is my favorite shsisha period. As for the brands, you might want to try either Al Waha or Layalina. After you get into more and get good with your technique, then go for some Tangiers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Al Quemah is washed, I believe. It is made by the the same plant that makes Al Fahker, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
