This is a pretty long review so I'll put my set up (It's the same for all of these flavors) at the end.
Starbuzz--Blue Mist _sheesha2__by_Majunka_aurore.gif

Well, like I've said in chat before, I love this flavor. Very good aroma (Can't tell you how many people walk into my room and love the way it smells thanks to this stuff). Very good flavor. I smoke this stuff about 3 times a week and have become very used to its flavor. That being said, the flavor isn't as strong as Tangiers but very satisfying. I think this flavor is a great flavor to get people into Hookah. The tremendous cooling sensation this shisha gives you is incredible. Usually when I smoke, the smoke coming out of my lungs is cooler than the air I'm sitting in.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this flavor to people trying to lure others into the wonders of Hookah before giving them some Tangiers. 8/10

Starbuzz--Fuzzy Navel

This is a very good flavor named for a decent drink. It tastes faintly of peach and the aroma carries through. However, upon opening the package, one would have to be made of stone to not be struck by the vibrant color. This stuff is red, and I mean, RED! This immediately made me suspicious of the contents of this shisha.

This was probably my least favorite flavor
. The peach was refreshing but it just was not all that great for me. My roommates seemed to like it ok. Definitely not a bad flavor, just not as good as I've had.

Overall, this gets a 6.5/10.

Starbuzz--X on the Beach

Same as Fuzzy Navel, this stuff was red. Call me old fashioned but I am not a huge fan of this red color.

The aroma was very pleasant and reminded me of rasberries and candy, this set me up to expect one hell of a great taste. Boy was I not dissapointed! This stuff tastes great! Very sweet and a rich, refreshing berry taste. It gives off great plumes of smoke that made my friends and I joke about how it looked like a train going through the living room. Definitely good stuff.

This flavor gets an 8.6/10. Fantastic flavor and worth of a try.

Starbuzz--White Peach

...Wow. What can I say about this flavor? It smells like orchard fresh peaches straight from Georgia. It has a nice brown color and the cut was typical starbuzz with only one stem in the batch.

After taking that first whiff, I was all excited to try this wonderful flavor. Once again, Starbuzz did not dissapoint me! This is the best peach I've ever had. It just tastes like a refreshing peach. No fancy cooling or crazy after tastes...just peaches. It's tremendous! This was my favorite Starbuzz flavor I've ever tried and I'm pretty sure if I ever need a good peach flavor, I'll go back to this. Very impressed.

9.0/10. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

Set Up

My set up for all of these flavors was the same.

Hookah: 27" KM
Coals: Golden Canary Jap Coals
Liquid in base: Ice water set in the fridge for 30-35 minutes
Hose: KM hose
Bowl: Tangiers large modern bowl

Afterthoughts

Starbuzz is a good company that makes extremely aromatic shisha that is very consistant and great smoking. The buzz is pretty minimal but it's enough to let you know it's there.

Buzz: None
Duration: 1 1/2+ hours
