Al Fakher Shisha Tobacco 50g

I've tried quite a bit of Al Fakher now, to include Orange, Watermelon, Cappuccino, Pineapple, Lemon, and Grape - All flavors are good, but if you're a fan of citrus you will NOT be disappointed with the Orange flavor - Very, very good flavor - Also surprising was the Rose flavor - I bought it on a whim, and it was actually very tasty - At first it was a tad perfume like, but it opened up to be quite a sweet and enjoyable flavor -

I have smoked about 20 different Al-Fakher flavors, some have been great and are a staple in my shisha cabinet, but some - - - well, aren't as good - I believe that I should preface this review with the fact that I like stronger flavor profiles, and prefer spice and traditional flavors more than fruits and such - My absolute favorite Al-Fakher flavor is Mint - - - and having tried Mint offerings from other manufacturers, I feel that AF Mint has the best profile and best flavor - - - it is also highly mixable with other flavors as well - Coming in second are the spice and floral flavors, like Jasmine, Rose and Cinnamon, Chocolate, Cardamom, Gum, Gum Mastic, Gum Cinnamon - - - all have fairly strong flavor profiles and are very good when I want a lighter smoke - As a washed tobacco brand, Al-Fakher flavors are all lighter than their unwashed brethren, but still provide a good buzz though it doesn't last as long as say, Tangiers, Nakhla or Starbuzz Vintage - I have tried many AF straight fruit flavors Cherry, Orange, Lemon, Kiwi, Blueberry, Strawberry, Melon, Pineapple, Fresh Mist, Fruit Cocktail, Watermelon and with two exceptions all have fallen short of the mark - - - those exceptions are Pineapple and Watermelon - - - I was pleasantly surprised by these flavors as they provide great longevity of flavor, up to about 75-90 minutes - Some of the fruit flavors mixed with Mint are good as the mint for some reason carries the fruit along with it, included Orange with Mint, Lemon with Mint and Blueberry with Mint, Watermelon with Mint - - - a slight fruit flavor comes through as does the incomparable taste of AF Mint - Overall, if you're an experienced smoker and want a light smoke to share or not, you can't go wrong with AF mint and spice flavors - Not only that, it is widely available and inexpensive, not to mention fairly tolerant of varying heat -

This stuff is amazing - It's easily my favorite Al Fakher shisha flavor - It makes the house smell like blueberry pancakes -

Pleasantly surprised by the coconut flavor - It was way less mild than I thought it would be - This would be good to mix with peach or mango for sure -

This just might be the best Hookah I have ever smoked so far - The flavour seems to seep right into you as you smoke it - It's everything You imagine a cherry flavoured shisha to be and then some - I love it !! Two thumbs up for sure -

My top 5 Al Fakher flavors

It'd be Al Fakher - Every brand has their ups and their downs, and Al Fakhers biggest up, in my opinion, is that it is almost always good no matter what flavor you have or what your setup is - Citrus Mint: My all time most purchased flavor ever - Tastes great, very refreshing, very minty, very citrus-y - 8 - 5/10 Kiwi: A super sweet, juicy, half natural half candy flavor that goes surprisingly well with mint - 8/10 Two Apples: POTENT - very strong tasting, half green apple, half hard candy, this thing leaves nothing to the imagination as far as what it's supposed to be - Not the biggest fan of in your face flavors like that, but it isn't bad - 7/10

Tastes like laundry soap - :

I happen to love al Fakher it's one of the first brands I've smoked! Toda I decided to buy grenadine and when I first opened it I got an incredible strong sweet smell - When I smoked it I got that sweetness with a few notes of sour/tart which I love - I was hoping for a fresh pomegranate taste but it fell just a little short of that expectation but still a wonderful smoke, nice to mix with! Jasmine is one of my favorites! It tastes exactly like I had hoped it would - Great on it's own or other floral flavors!

8.5/10. A great sweet and tart Orange backed up by a refreshing Mint. More Orange than Mint but a very nice blend. A must-try for any Orange or Mint fan.

I started smoking with Al Fakher, I have tried many flavours since and some are definitely better than others - They all created good smoke and a decent buzz, though - The best ones are: grenadine, fruit cocktail, watermelon, strawberry, grapefruit and peach - they all tasted the way I expected and my friends enjoyed them as well - The okay ones I've tried are kiwi, orange cream, vanilla and coconut - The flavour wasn't as strong or seemed a little off from what I was expecting - The worst ones I've tried would have to be bubblegum, grape, banana, pineapple and cola - These all tasted weird or had hardly to no flavour - Cola was my absolute least favourite out of all of them - It had this tangy smell and did not taste like "cola" - This is all just my opinion, but hopefully this will help future buyers -

Great Flavor. Did not expect this one.

Really Sweet flavor! Unexpected greatness!

Just something about this bitter off putting grape...

Smells very similar to Peach but has its own taste of sweet victory!
