JM's Hookah, Reviews, Tobacco »
Red Toro is JM’s attempt at an energy drink flavor—ala Red ‘Bull’. And it is indeed very similar, and quite delicious. There is a strong floral undertone, most likely rose. But atop that is something semi-sweet and fruity—possibly apricot, peach or raspberry. Or, perhaps a blend of all of them. Overall, the flavors do jive well together, provided the heat is managed properly.

Fuzzy Navel, which outside of the hookah world, is a mixed drink made from peach schnapps and orange juice. Having never actually had one of these drinks in real life, it’s difficult to say just how accurate the tobacco is to the real thing. But dissecting the flavor for what it is, there is a very strong, sweet and tangy orange flavor. In fact, the overall taste is very similar to the orange drink Tang. But, inspecting closely, you can also pick up subtle notes of peach. Regardless of whether it tastes like the beverage or not, the flavor is mouthwatering and delicious.

Though the scent is very much that of children’s breakfast cereal, the flavor is not so much. After Sex is sweet, but not nauseatingly so. It is a berry/fruit mix with some very subtle citrus undertones. The flavor is tasty and refreshing, and though there is no detectible mint sensation, After Sex still has a cool freshness to it.

Watermelon is Social Smoke’s stab at a flavor that almost every brand in the market tries. Social Smoke’s version is lighter, crisper and more refreshing than many competitors, however it still remains a very sweet candy caricature of the real thing. Imagine a slightly more realistic version of Bubbleyum chewing gum, but in tobacco form.

Banana is a surprisingly realistic version of the real fruit flavor. It is, however, still a strangely awkward caricature of the real thing. It is a sweet, simple, very mild, candy banana. Almost identical to the Runts candies that you used to find in the single serving candy machines at the barber shop.

Cinnamon Apple is just as the name implies. Cinnamon and apple. The flavor is mild. However, it is also warm and spicy, thanks to the cinnamon flavoring. And, while the spice flavor is dominant, the apple provides a refreshing, sweet undertone. The balance is near perfect. Comparing the flavor in the real world, Cinnamon Apple tastes almost identically to a bowl of cooked apple and cinnamon dessert.

JM’s Peach is a sweet and mild, yet realistic version of the fruit flavor. The taste is not overwhelming, and while generally more dramatic than a real peach, the intended flavor is clear. If you’re very sensitive to subtle flavors, you may find a hint of a floral taste on inhale, though most won’t notice.

At first taste, Mobster is a confusing flavor. It is a candy, sweet, fruity flavor with a floral finish. It’s very difficult to compare to something in the real world, which adds to the confusion. The scent is that of candy dipping sticks (you know, the giant Pez that you lick and then dip in Pixi Stick dust?), but the taste betrays the smell. They’re almost nothing alike. The smell is extremely sweet, but the flavor, while sweet, is far more mild. Mobster could also be compared to another Social Smoke flavor, The Edge. However, Mobster is only a mild sweetness, with a noticeably more intense floral finish.
Reviews, Romman, Tobacco »
Romman Good Times is a blend of orange, lemon, apple and mint flavors. The most dominant is clearly the orange citrus, though I wouldn’t classify it exactly as a citrus tobacco. When smoking, it’s difficult to pick out the specific flavors, and in that way it’s a bit simple. The mint also is weak compared to what you might expect. Rather than producing a mint sensation, it has a subtle cooling effect.
