Fantasia Strawberry Lemonade Flavored Hookah Tobacco

Fantasia Strawberry Lemonade is another incarnation of the wildly popular Pink Lemonade that had been the talk of the modern hookah community some time ago.  I had to give this one a try as some people have said that it is one of the better flavors that Fantasia has to offer.

The smell on this tobacco is great.  It’s slightly lemony but mostly an artificial and candy strawberry scent.  I like natural flavors a lot more than candied ones but Fantasia is known for their candy, dessert and mixed drink flavors so this is what you should expect.

The clouds are exactly what I expect from Fantasia.  Big a fluffy.  Sure to make the cloud seekers happy.

The flavor is good.  It’s mostly lemonade with a decently strong flavor of strawberry candy.  I think it is very accurate to the strawberry lemonade drink powders that you can buy.  My major complaint witht his flavor is that I wish it was stronger.  It seems like they dialed back on the lemonade to let the strawberry be noticeable.  I think this was a good decision but I wish there was a way to make them both nice and strong.  Then again, if Fantasia was able to make a strawberry flavor that was strong they would be sitting on thrones at their offices.  That’s like the holy grail for many hookah smokers.

7.5 out of 10.  It’s not jaw dropping and it’s far from a favorite but it’s something I could see keeping around.  It’s tasty and it has good heat resistance allowing you to get nice big clouds without sacrificing flavor.  I think it’s a flavor that is worth checking out and if you like candy flavors it should be on your list.

Social smoke Gumball Flavored Hookah Tobacco

Social Smoke Gumball was a flavor that I was slightly confused about when I first heard about it.  I incorrectly assumed that this was going to be a light mint flavor like many of the other “gum” flavors on the market.

The smell on this one is slightly rose like and very sweet.  It has a very light minty note to it but nothing of the actual smell of mint.  It’s hard to describe.

The clouds are exactly what I expect from Social Smoke at this point.  Big and puffy

The flavor is almost exactly like a classic gumball.  The basic pink that has no distinct flavor and can’t be described as anything but gumball.  Previous to this I had said that Blush was a flavor that reminded me of classic pink bubble gum but this is much more so.

8 out of 10.  This is an extremely accurate flavor.  The name is spot on and that means a lot to me.  I think that it is a little bit too light in flavor but that is understandable.  If you like the classic gumball flavor then this is right up your alley.  Check it out.  I recommend it.

Social Smoke Cosmopolitan Flavored Hookah Tobacoo

Cosmopolitans are cocktails made with vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice and a little bit of fresh squeezed lime juice.   The mixed drink flavored tobacco is nothing new but it is a difficult to pin down the real flavor of the drink because things like vodka and triple sec have a flavor that is a result of the alcohol.  Without the alcohol there is often something missing.  When translated into hookah tobacco you essentially get the virgin version of the drink.

The smell of this tobacco in the package is interesting.  It’s kind of sweet and sour with a slightly… bitter scent that is pretty accurate to the drink but it was a little surprising.

The clouds on this one are exactly what I expect from Social Smoke.  Big and smooth.

The flavor is kind of like sweet tarts.  It’s fruity and tasty but I’m not sure it tastes like a cosmopolitan.  It has been a long time since  I have had a cosmo.  There is a bit of bitterness that is similar to the bitterness that comes with cranberry juice but I do not pick up any of the cranberry flavor.  Cranberry is an extremely difficult flavor the replicate in hookah smoke.  I am a fan of this flavor.

8 out of 10.  I think that it has some similarities to an actual cosmopolitan and the flavor is enjoyable regardless of it’s accuracy.  Check this one out.  It’s easily on my recommendation list.

Social Smoke Blush Hookah Tobacco

Blush is a flavor that will appeal to many of the more modern hookah smokers.  The description says that it is a blend of raspberry, sweet fruit and citrus with a  touch of rose.   I was a little apprehensive about this flavor but I was not disappointed.

The smell has a slight hint of rose and a distinct scent that is similar to bubble gum.

The clouds are exactly what you would expect from Social Smoke.  The smoke is voluminous and smooth.

The flavor is similar to the old style bubble gum that would come in the twisted yellow and blue wrappers.  It has a slight hint of rose but it’s not over bearing.  This is far from a rose flavor.  The balance between the flavors is very nice and well thought out.  There is a distinct citrus as well.

6 out of 10.  I enjoyed this flavor but I can’t see myself smoking this one on a regular basis.  It’s a little too sweet for me but will probably be perfect for a lot of people.  Try this out is a bubblegum flavored tobacco sounds interesting.  This tobacco will treat you well.
