    I’m completely Biased! Like I said in the video, Fantasia Cuban Mojito is my most favorite shisha! It’s in the same premium quality level as starbuzz, for about the same price. I always look forward to smoking Cuban Mojito!

    Apparatus:
    Bowl: Blue Phunnel bowl
    Hose: Green Cobra Hose
    Hookah: Large [idk the brand] Hookah
    Coals: Coconaras
    Filler: Ice water
    Cut: Red dye, thick cut shisha, a good bit of stems, and VERY sweet smelling.

    Experience:
    Myself: I always love this shisha. I love how it never gets old, and it lasts FOREVER. Not really, but it does last about an hour to an hour and a half. The taste is really minty, and a little sweet. It goes perfectly though. It’s kinda like sprite, but not really. It doesn’t taste exactly like a mojito, but I can tell that it was made to imitate one.

    The fanclub: [Jaime]: It’s a good shisha. It’s flavor is even, and it mixes well. I can taste the mint in it, with another unknown flavor. I can relax with Cuban Mojito, because it’s just that good.

    Smoke:
    The smoke is huge. The clouds are thick and smell great. They’re the same as starbuzz clouds, with coconaras. Probably some of the best clouds you can get with hookah, without burning the shisha.

    Overall:
    I’ll probably smoke this shisha a hundred times more if I have it. I’ll never get burnt out on it, and I’ll never tell you not to try it. I would send out samples if I could. Cuban Mojito is by far my favorite shisha. With that, I recommend you try it if you ever have a chance to.

    Apparatus:
    Shisha: Hydro Avalanche [Banana]
    Hookah: Mini Mya.
    Bowl: Phunnel bowl
    Hose: Cobra hose
    Coals: Two coco-naras
    First thoughts:
    Myself: My first inhale of it tasted perfect. After the first few puffs, the perfection went away sadly. It seems as though all of the hydro’s have a flavor after a few moments or so. It’s not bothersome at the least.
    Jaime: “good stuff!” Jaime claims. “It tastes like all of the other good banana [shisha’s] out there.”
    All in All:
    This shisha is mediocre as far as just shisha in general. But when you compare it to other herbal shisha’s I’d consider it the premium brand. This banana flavoring is quite superb within it’s beginning time frame. It lasted about a total of 30 minutes with the last 15 minutes of it being not as enjoyable as the first. The flavor itself tasted pretty much like banana juice, if you’ve ever had it. Like I explained in my “First Thoughts:” After a while, there’s a flavor that will throw you off guard. It tastes nothing like banana, it’s more like.. Medicine. A mix between medicine and chemicals. It’s not that bad, and a lot of people don’t notice it, but I’m one for details.

    Well, It’s Hydro. If you’re one of my readers, you know what I’m going to say from here. It smells extremely sweet and fruity. Somehow, that never changes.

    Apparatus:
    Bowl: Blue Phunnel bowl
    Hose: Black Nammor hose
    Hookah: Mini Mya
    Coals: Coconaras
    Filler: Ice water
    Cut: Red dye, bunch of sticks, and evenly juiced.

    Experience:
    Myself: At first, it tasted like a light grape. Not too sweet, not too fruity. A pretty even combination. Usually, I absolutely adore Hydro’s flavors, but tonight isn’t the usual. After about twenty minutes, the taste changed. It went from being perfect to tasting like a chemical warfare in my mouth. It doesn’t burn at all, but I’m pretty sure it’s from being overheated.

    The fanclub: [Jaime]: I loved it at first, it tasted like grape kool-aid with just the right sweetness. But once it got harsh, it was absolutely horrible. The main problem was, is that we treated it like we have the rest of the hydro, so there shouldn’t have been any heating issues.
    Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ [5/10]

    Smoke:
    The smoke was the best it’s ever been, even after it got harsh. It was undoubtedly the best smoke we’ve had with the Hydro brand shishas.
    Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥♥ [6 / 10]

    Overall:
    While I’ve had this bad experience, I’m not going to give up on Hydro. I have five more flavors to review, and will be doing them shortly. Every flavor that I’ve tried besides this one has been great. I will probably smoke this again, and try a new heating technique.

    FYI:
    If you miss my video reviews, they’ll be on here randomly. I’ve been sick and it’s hard to do a review and look decent when you’re this sick. Either way, they’ll be here, just not on every post.

    I really hate to sound repetitious when I say this, but I honestly believe that Hydro is by far the best herbal shisha out there. A few of the perks I love about Hydro are:

    [1] Hydro is 100% Nicotine, tar, and tobacco free.
    [2] The handy ziplock bags that the herbal shisha comes in, that’s inside of a really nice looking box.
    [3] The smell of the shisha, and the flavor. They’re both completely tantalizing, making you practically drool on yourself until your next hit on the hookah.

    The cons:
    [1] The shisha doesn’t seem to last as long as tobacco shisha.
    [2] They only come in 50g boxes.

    The flavor that I’m reviewing today is Hydro – Blue Viper [ Blueberry ]

    First thougts:
    Of course, you know what i’m going to say by now. The smell of the shisha even before even opening the box could be considered tormenting. It’s like smelling your favorite desert, fresh out of the oven or freezer, and then finding out it was only an air freshener.

    Apparatus:
    Bowl: Blue Phunnel bowl
    Hose: Black Nammor hose
    Hookah: KM [we think?]
    Coals: Some Japanese natural coals
    Filler: Ice water

    Cut: Red dye, bunch of sticks, and evenly flavored.

    Experience:

    Myself: The flavor to me tasted like blueberry muffins.. But more blueberry to me. Or even more like blueberry cream.. I think what I’m getting at, is that it wasn’t exactly dead on blueberry. It didn’t seem to hit the spot, as I was hoping it would. [fantasia!!] Regardless, I wasn’t let down. It is still a great flavor to me.

    The fanclub: Both Jaime and my mom believed there to be a licorice-y aftertaste. They’re not talking about the way the smoke tastes when you blow it out, but after that when you take that first swallow. Overall, they both really enjoyed the flavor and agreed that they would smoke it again.
    Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ [7/10]

    Smoke:
    The smoke started out really thick. About 5 minutes later, one of the coals broke in half and I guess somehow it burnt the shisha. That resulted in us pulling off one of the coals, and losing a lot of smoke.

    About the video:
    This was my Mom’s first time smoking an herbal shisha. She didn’t want to be on video, but I made her. So, I’m really sorry for anything that might not need to be in there, but this was a random spur of the moment video.. And you can probably tell.

    As I explained in my original Hydro review, Hyrdo [ in my opinion ] is probably the best herbal shisha that is on the market today. It’s made right here in America, with premium herbs from another country. Hydro is first packaged in ziplock bags, then again in a convenient sized cardboard box. The smell of the shisha penetrates right through the bag and box, leaving you drooling on yourself before you even get a chance to smoke it.

    Hydro – Red Lightning.

    Flavor: Strawberry.

    First Thoughts:
    Opening the bag, you get a really really sweet strawberry smell. Almost like strawberry shortcake topping. Again, the smell is extremely strong, which I believe is a great quality in a shisha.

    Cut: Dyed red. Looks like hundreds of small sticks. Very nature-like.


    Hydro - Red Lightning

    Flavor: Have you ever went to the bank or doctor and get those little lollipops, wrapped in plastic? This tastes just like one of those. Extremely sweet, and partially fruity. Definitely strawberry though. 6/10

    Smoke: Not as good as the last few times we’ve smoked Hydro. Still impressed for it being an herbal shisha. 6/10
