UK Guys: Where to buy premium brands?

[Guest LondonShisha]

I'm wondering where you UK folk get premium brands of sheesha from (romman, al-fakher, etc)? I've bought some al-fakher from Edgware Road, but 20 quid for a 250g box is a bit steep methinks..

I am from leeds. upnorht to ou he he, and I cant find anyware to get it, I have to ship it in from us, making it around £40 - £70 per 250g, sucks big time, but its all worht it in the long run.Regards- Mark

Which one did you buy that cost that much? Did you get any hassles with customs?

Holy sh*t! That's $90 - $150 CANADIAN DOLLARS!  Oh my!  That's crazy!

If you *officially* import sheesha tobacco, you pay about £90 UK in duties as it's classed exactly the same as cigarette or rolling tobacco. Hence all the sheesha tobacco sold in shops is usually smuggled in and thus carries a higher price.It's such a shame. I went to Dubai in January and picked up a box of 12 50g Al-Nakhla for only £5 - thats less than 50p ($.73) each! Al-fakher tobacco was only a little bit more, so it shows you how little this stuff actually costs to make and distribute in the arab world.

I know a guy in the UK that says al-fakher, nakhla and al-waha brands for good prices (£8.50 incl postage for al-fakher)
