Paradise Sweet Star 200g - Strawberry Shisha Steam Stones with Creamy Strawberry and Menthol

Paradise Sweet Star: a creamy strawberry mix with cool menthol, made as 200 grams of steam stones. On the label, a starry sky turns green with the northern lights, with the flavor line Creamy Strawberry mix, Menthol below it. You get sweet, soft strawberry with a fresh finish, all from mineral granules.

Why is strawberry shisha so loved?

Strawberry is a flavor almost everyone knows and likes, and you see that reflected in the hookah. It is sweet, fruity and friendly, without sharp edges. That is why strawberry shisha is a first choice for many people, and it stays popular with experienced smokers too. Sweet Star goes one step further, by making the strawberry creamy and adding a cool side.

What makes the strawberry creamy?

The label says Creamy Strawberry mix, and that says a lot. You taste not only fresh strawberry, but strawberry with a soft, round touch, a bit like strawberries with cream. That makes the flavor fuller and softer than a pure fruit flavor. It is precisely that creaminess that makes Sweet Star feel like a dessert, without getting heavy.

What does Paradise Sweet Star taste like?

On the first draw the creamy strawberry comes forward: sweet, soft and full. Then the menthol follows, laying a cool layer over the sweetness and leaving your mouth fresh. The result is a flavor that is soft and refreshing at the same time. If you normally hesitate between something sweet and something fresh, you do not have to choose with this tub.

Strawberry mint or strawberry ice?

In the shisha world you often see strawberry combined with mint or ice. Strawberry mint emphasizes a mint flavor, strawberry ice the cold. Sweet Star uses menthol for the cool side, and combines it with a creamy strawberry. Looking for one of those flavor styles? Then this is a good tub to try.

Combining with Sweet Star

Strawberry is a rewarding flavor to mix. With Paradise Amore Mio you get strawberry with pineapple and banana, which brings a tropical smoothie to mind. Paradise Amazing brings peach with a freeze, for a summery fruit mix with plenty of cold. Watermelon fits well too: with Paradise Climax you make a fresh, light combination. Divide the bowl into two halves, so you taste both flavors.

Sweet Star next to the other fresh Paradise flavors

Paradise has more flavors with a cool side, but each puts the emphasis differently. Blue Magic sets blueberry next to menthol, Amore Mio cools down pineapple and banana, and Love 99 mixes melon and passion fruit with peppermint. Within that row, Sweet Star is the softest and creamiest, with strawberry in the lead role. If you like fresh but not sharp, this is the one for you.

Paradise from the Netherlands

Sweet Star is part of the line of Paradise Supplies B.V., based in the Netherlands. The tub holds no tobacco leaves, but mineral granules with molasses the company blends itself, supplemented with aromas. According to the brand, the flavors were designed with the help of shisha lounge owners. Nicotine plays no part: 0 mg.

How to build the bowl

A creamy strawberry asks for calm, even heat. A bowl of clay or stone spreads the heat nicely; you will find those among the clay and stone hookah bowls. Let the granules fall loosely into the bowl, to just below the rim, without pressing them down. Then foil with fine holes goes over it, or you use a heat management device.

With a gas coal burner your coals glow quickly. Set two on the edge of the foil; once the granules have warmed through, the session can start.

Keeping it creamy and cool

A creamy strawberry loses its softness first with too much heat, and the menthol retreats. If you taste that, it is time to move or remove a coal. With calm draws and moderate heat, the balance between creamy, sweet and cool is preserved.

Keeping the vapor extra fresh

Want the menthol to speak even more? Fill the base with cold water and a few ice cubes. The vapor then cools down extra on its way to your hose, which suits the fresh side of Sweet Star. Change the water after every session, so the flavor of the next bowl stays clean.

Storage

A creamy flavor stays nicest when the granules keep their moisture. So screw the lid on firmly and put the tub away in a cool, dark place.

Who is Sweet Star for?

Made for fans of sweet flavors with a fresh edge, and for anyone craving a dessert in the bowl that stays light. Sweet Star is also a nice choice to start with. Discover the rest of the brand at Paradise Steam Stones, with many more flavors.
