Citrus Mint is simply as the name describes, though the citrus is not a medley, but a basic lemon. Unlike some lemon flavors, Al Tawareg’s lemon is more tart and realistic, rather than a candy-sweet. The mint is mild, but clearly present.

Berry Bang is a blend of berry flavors and a very light spearmint sensation. The flavor is a little less sweet and a bit more tart.

Mad Hatter is a unique, mild flavor, but not altogether unfamiliar either. There are notes of cinnamon or some similar spice, as well as perhaps some melon or apple. There are likely other flavors as well, though they’re difficult to pin-down.

Al Tawareg Wild Watermelon is underwhelming at best. The Watermelon flavor is extremely mild. So much so, in fact, that you can clearly taste the honey and tobacco, though the experience isn’t unpleasant. The detectable watermelon flavor is, however, very nice. It is more realistic than most and doesn’t taste much like ‘bubble-yum’, the way most other brands do.

Half Baked is, in short, peanut butter cookies in smoke form. Analyzing the flavor more carefully suggests that it’s likely a combination of peanutbutter and vanilla, with some additional sweetness added to it. The flavor is strikingly realistic and downright enjoyable. A keen sense of taste will also reveal the subtle undertones of the natural tobacco flavor.

Dazed and Confused is a blend, starting with a very mild mint, which will fade as the session continues, then introducing an ambiguous, mild-sweet berry/melon blend.

Blue Rain is a candy-sour grape, with a mild mint element to it and that is very much what it tastes like. It’s positioned to be a competitor for Starbuzz’ Blue Mist, though the taste is really not at all similar. Within the hookah world, the flavor is much closer to Al Fakher’s Golden Grape, though a bit more refined.

Hookah-Shisha.com, the veiled manufacturers of Romman Tobacco, released a new line of shisha tobacco today under the name Al Tawareg (AL Ta-WEAR-Egg), which means “The Wondering Nomad”. The brand is intended as an economy line of their more expensive brand.

The new brand sports some unique flavors, namely Beer and All American Whiskey, as well as many more common flavors. Currently, there is some crossover between flavors offered in the Romman line and the Al-Tawareg line, such as Banana Split, Cappuccino, Coconut, Double Apple, Spearmint Gum and Sweet Melon. However, some differences should be expected.

Rose is just as the name implies. Rose. However, JM’s take on the flavor is refreshing. Rather than tasting like you’re smoking a bowl of potpourri, it has a sweet edge to it that makes an otherwise extreme floral flavor much more accessible. The flavor of rose is, however, difficult to describe. The simplest, and most likely clearest explanation is that it tastes very much the way a real rose smells.

Chocolate, while better than most, is still a far cry from what you might think when you hear ‘chocolate’. Rather than tasting like a milk-chocolate candy bar, the flavor is mild and closer to regular cocoa, lightly sweetened. It also has a similar ‘ashy’ taste found in a chocolate diet drink.
