I love smoking on the hookah every now and then. I got some special when I ordered mine and got like a 10 box sampler pack of shisha. I have to say, though, it really does a number on me. I usually just put a couple grams of bud in it with my shisha, and after it goes around 5 or 6 times, I'm about done for. I guess its just mixing the tobacco and weed that does it.

Alright... I got one more question. I don't smoke tobacco, besides cigars and pipes, where you don't inhale. I can't inhale tobacco for the life of me, it kills my throat. Is this different? Smooth smoke?

Love smoking out of a hookah and have 2 rather nice one's. Mixing dope with shisha is a rather pleasurable smoking experience.

I love hookas and shisha. I actually just sold mine, but I think that I may have to buy another. Shisha and herb go great together, much better than spliffs IMO.

Bounty - Every single one of my friends who I've introduced to hooka smoking has loved it, give it a try they're great.

Well, I'm the first! :p well actually I'm not so sure. But the times I've tried it, it didn't get me stoned at all. The taste is excellent. But no high?
Last time I put 1.5g of very fine herb and some banana molasses in it and smoked it all by myself. Had to roll a spliff right after it otherwise I wouldn't have been stoned.
What could I have been doing wrong? I've smoked shisha a lot and do it like everyone else. Didn't mix it with herb to often since it didn't seem to work. Maybe I should try again?
And they're always suprised when I tell em that. everyone seems to get super stoned of it.
Well, it's probably just me. I usually like spliffs more then pipes. Although once in a while it's just heaven.
Enjoy it!
 
I love hookahs, got 2 myself a 1 hose and a 3 hose. I dont know about u but if i smoke too much of the tobacco it makes me sick to my stomache, but thats because i dont smoke tobacco besides the hookah. It gets me intensily blazed though :)

Al Fakr shisha is hands down the best tobacco for the hookah that is made. It will give you a smoking experience virtually on par with a hookah lounge (minus the atmosphere unless you got a tricked out smoking den haha). The strawberry is superb. Been meaning to get me a hookah for some time, perhaps towards year's end when there's more funding available haha.

Peace,

well, there is a lot of different hookah tobaccos, and finally the personal taste is the dominator, although i gotto say most brands are ok.

i only this far come by one pack of cherry tobbacco i could not smoke for its heavy perfumed flavour.

but in general all mollases for hookahs is a mix of glycerin, tobacco and flavourants. the later part i cant say if its natural or artificial.

brand i smoke regularly;

el nakhla

by far the most natural tasting tobaccos one can find.

i personally like to mix different flavours to get a one time only experience.

mint goes great with hash, and to add some fruit flavour for sweetness is nice.

for bud i prefeer to get a tobacco as close to the flavour as possible. for example if the bud is acidic and spicy i mix it maybe with mango tobacco. allways trying to think ion the same ways of combining flavours the same way as cooking.

have a nice day!

Had my first shisha experience the other week from a good friend. Very pleasurable. Mixed some mango molasses with some great homegrown. Proceeded immediately to a 45 minute firework show. Very cool night.

Anyway, going to the local headshop soon to get my own. They're great!

hey bonecarver_og, so you're into hookahs too!!

I'm a fan... in fact it brought back weed to me :) I had not smoked weed/hash for more than a decade after a bad experience, started smoking hookah this spring and by summer I got my own (now I have 3) and enjoyed it so much I decided to try some weed a friend gave me... and goot hooked :)

Though a single shot of that supercharged one you prepped would have sent me straight to bed for a month, hehe :)

BTW have you tried to make shisha with buds? I may try some recipes once I harvest if I everything goes well... Oil extracted from trims would mix nicely with the hookah I suppose, just mixing some with the shisha and you're setup... better use a Vortex/phunnel type bowl however.

Have you tried starbuzz shisha? To me is one of the best... I agree with you, Nakhla cherry is damn strong, tastes like a supercharged cherry Kojak lollypop :) Look for El Habibi and cleopatra brands, estancos had recently started to sell them.

Nakhla has also launched some new flavours, but with "premium" tobacco this time, most notable are Tropicana (tastes like maracuyá/passion fruit) and margarita (mostly slightly sour lime). Once you open them you notice the tobbaco is better quality, much thinner, and much more moist and less sticky than classic nakhla like two apples, etc.

starbuzz - i gotto try that :D and the other ones too :D hehe

the thing is i smoke quite rarelly in the shisha at the moment, and i got lots of tobaccos still from a long time back. they just dont seem to go BAD as long i keep them well sealed.

those new tobaccos sound cool and id love to try them out. neither El habibi nor cleopatra i have seen here yet but then again i have not been looking. here in murcia the arabic barrio around the bus station is the best place to go to buy tobacco for the nargileh.

peace!
