Hey folks. Paul here for Hookah.org. I have another video review for you. This one is
of Othmani Tobacco Aegean Spice.
This is so far my favorite tobacco from this line. It's actually a Turkish tobacco. It's
very much a modern tobacco; you don't get a lot of actual tobacco notes, you don't taste
the leaves, but it does have an okay mouth feel to it. Its pretty smooth, its not going
to be the robust wonderful mouth feel experience that you're going to get from something like
the black Molassels and things like that, but it's a really nice smooth spice flavor.
There is a little bit cardamom to speak of, but the vast majority of the flavor for this
one is actually a cinnamon flavor. It's not particularly sweet.
Let me make that clear; it's not by any means dry and bitter and acrid. It is very smooth
and it has a little bit of implied sweetness, but this is not the sugary sweet dessert flavor
that you might expect from something like the Bakhala flavor from Othmani, which I found
very sweet. This is a very good tobacco.
As you can see, it produces pretty good clouds. It smokes very nicely, its not particularly
heat sensitive, I find it to be moderately complex but nothing to really blow your socks
off, but I really think that this is one of my favorite tobaccos I've smoked in a very
long time. I'm a big fan of spice flavors and if you are too, I think that you should
try this one out. I'm actually really looking forward to mixing this with the Othmani Bakhlava
because I think this has a lot of the flavor that I expected from a Bakhlava flavor and
I think that the two of them, the distinct honey notes of the Bakhlava and the really
nice smooth spice flavors of the Aegean spice, are going to blend together absolutely beautifully.
Just for information, I am smoking in my crown classic mini bowl and I am also using two
cocoa Mazaya on top. This is a tobacco that can take a good amount of heat. It has a slight
nuttiness the more you heat it up but I still haven't burnt it and I've put this thing through
the paces.
All in all, this is definitely going to be a main stay in my collection and I think that
if you are a fan of spice flavors, you really need to try this one out.
Anyways, this is Paul for Hookah.org giving you another review. Thank you very much. Happy
smoking.
