Layalina Peach & Vanilla Reviews

Layalina Peach

Shisha Cut: med, few stems. Dark red in color, drippy.

Hookah Type: 33" Eypgtian, 27" Syrain

Duration: 1hr - 1hr 30min

Bowl: standard

Foil / Screen: foil

Coal / Amount: 4 silver tabs (2 @ a time), 1 extra large chunk of Lemon Wood

Smoke: Med to thick

Buzz: slight

Smell / Flavor: Faintly Peachy smelling. Taste: not a super strong peach, but you can tell it is peach. Sweet, rather than like true fruit. Long lasting.

Rating (1 to 10): 7

The taste is alittle weak, but it's still a good peach. Not quite as strong as Romman Peach (in my view), but a real good mixer to other shisha. Goes well with Strawberry, Mint, Lemon and Vanilla.

Layalina Vanilla

Shisha Cut: med, few stems. Black in color, drippy.

Hookah Type: 27" Syrain

Duration: 1hr

Bowl: smiley

Foil / Screen: glass for first 25 min, foil for remainder

Coal / Amount: 1 silver tab w/ glass, 2-3 for foil

Smoke: med to thick

Buzz: slight

Smell / Flavor: Creamy vanilla scent. Taste was less vanilla (vanilla bean) than I expected, was "sweet" like a piece of candy (french vanilla).

Rating (1 to 10): 7

I tend to like my Vanillas more like a Vanilla Bean than French Vanilla - less creamy, more tart. Was still a good vanilla - mixes well with just about anything. Adds some creaminess and sweetiness, even to Nahkla. Good to keep around for "mixing", but not as a stand-alone smoke.
