Arkante Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Hi all, i come from France and i spend a few time in NY for my hollidays.As a gran smoker of hookah/shisha, I heard on a french board that starbuzz was a really good tobacco, but it is impossible to get it in France (exept by the internet but it is supposed to be forbidden). That's why i'd like to know if there is a shop in NY or its neighbourhood where i could buy some.Thank you for you help. And i hope my english is not too bad and you'll understand me.Arkante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Hey welcome to the forum, hate to be "that guy" but I reccomend using hte search feature, this has been gone over at least 3 or 4 times.Now to answer your question:Nope. In NYC youll mainly find Al Amir, Nakhla, and Al Waha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAKCuMG Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 (edited) There is no place in NYC that I know off. Atleast not in Manhattan or Queens. Its too expensive for stores here to sell it, becuase almost everyone just settles for Nakhla. I have however, found 2 places in Queens that carry Al Fakher (a brand people on the forum rave about). As for Starbuzz, the only way to get it is online, at these sites:socialsmoke.commnhookah.comhookahcompany.comand a few others.I am on good terms with them, so thats why i recommend them.Socialsmoke.com is the direct dealer for Starbuzz, so they would have the most flavors.The only thing I can suggest is if you find someone who you trust in NY, to whom you could ship the package you'd order, and then pick it up once here.PS: dont forget to use the discount code "hookahforum" at any of these for a 10-15% off your order total.

Mr.Frosty Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hi, I know that I am new to this forum, and my first post is a request, sorry:PThe thing is my parents live in Westchester County and I am gonna visit them soon, I wanted to use the chance and order some sweet tobacco over the internet. But my parents turned out to be absolutely anti smokers so they won't let me and I could imagine my dad refusing the package delivery lol.So is there no store in the NYC area that sells good tobacco at a decent price? I am gonna be in the Tri-State-Area, so NJ and CT might be an option,too.Thx in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for everything else hit up Hookah Paradise.All these places are on the same street. Hookah paradise is 1 mile down the road from Fattals.

jaytoo3 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 West 3rd street is the best bet in the village, Either Cigarillos on Spring street or Shisha going toward christopher street will do the trick. Also if your by the west 4th street station, there's a smoke shop/newsstand that has a pretty good selection of stuff in the back. just ask to see their hookah tobacco and they'll take care of you.
