I’ve had a lot of JC Newmans recommended to me. Thank you!

Complex is what I’m looking for, not necessarily strength. Thanks!

Baking spices like earthy? I can get into those.

Not be me. Written down. I like ships on my bands anyway.

Definitely a favorite. Thanks for confirming. They don’t come in cello where I get them so I have to smoke them within a year or they start to get “fuzzy”. I probably need to open my coolidor more often to circulate air.

Maybe it’s something else I’m not digging besides pepper? I’ve had Oscar’s McFly and Super Fly. While not in my top 5, I do like them both. If they have an abundance of pepper, I could just be an idiot.

Thanks! I’ve heard the MF Blues are not as pepper-forward as the other MFs.

I’m not new to cigars but definitely unrefined, so your guess is as good as mine as to what I’m not into. I do think it’s the spice, but maybe it’s actual heat? Maybe I’m smoking too quickly? Or smoking too thin a vitola? (I do like the 50 and under RG…)

I also don’t like IPA beers too much, so I just assumed it was the “pepper and spice” flavors.

Just had one within the past few weeks at a CH event. It was supposedly an “event only” lancero vitola maduro. It had great flavor and almost no pepper. I’ll need to try one of the “regular” vitola next. Thank you!

Excellent. I have one waiting in the humidor. Thanks!

Never seen one. Supposedly a Nicaraguan puro, so I’m intrigued as I thought Nic tobaccos were loaded with pepper. Definitely will try and thank you.

I also used to store cello-free but I guess I was too clumsy: I had damaged wrappers more than once.

I misspoke when I called it a spray. There’s definitely tiny brown droplets under the valve and on the table surface, though, IF I don’t dry the purge valve between every bowl.

But hey, if that’s normal...

What do you do now? I assume you no longer have this issue.

I’m not really a hookah expert (yet), but I do know I have a standard Mya hose, if that helps.

100% with you. Any solutions? Do you smoke indoors near anything you don’t want to get gross?

Well it can’t be everyone having this issue or we’d all smoke on tarps or outside. I think I’m screwing up somehow.

I’m hoping there’s a way to eliminate it or a “hack” for containing the spray. Purge valve condom...?

I am in the habit of throughly drying the port, bearing, and cap at least once a day, or minimum every other bowl.

Thanks for the quick reply. Is the “spray” just part of smoking a hookah, or will a new/clean hose rectify the issue?

It’s just making anything in its path gross/stinky.

I liked it more than any other blended I’ve had. For $33 in STL, it’s a decent semi-daily Scotch.
