Al Fakler Golden Grape
Setup: 33″ KM Pharonie – Namoor hose with Glass tip
Coals: Coconaras
Foil: Doubled up heavy duty reynolds
Bowl: Crown Signature Glass Bowl.
Smell: Awful – Almost sickening for me. Reminded me slightly of ketchup. 1/10
Taste: Better than the smell. I could make more grape flavor out than the ketchup. 4/10
Smoke Quality: Good clouds. I enjoy AF clouds almost as much as any brand 8/10
Buzz: Normal AF slight buzz 5/10
Notes: Overall, a very average flavor for me which was a disappointment since this a “premium flavor”. I will probably let this breath before smoking again and just give to a friend if I don’t like it better.
Overall score 5/10
