Nicotine % 's?

[seefoodlover]

I'm wondering what the nicotine percentages are on various brands of shisha. I am looking for the lowest amount of Nicotine in a shisha, besides, Soex.

I am mainly interested in, Layalina, Al Fakher, Tangiers, Starbuzz, Al Amir, Mouj Al Bahr, and Nakhla.





Thnx for your help!

Starbuzz and Fusion are both .05%, but with Fusion make sure you're getting the one in the tin. The older boxes that are still available are a full 3% unwashed tobacco.

Never even heard of half of those!!! Never mind some of them having 0.11%!!! thats quite a bit!!

[r1v3th3ad]

ya, I havent heard of half of them either...nice research man and thanks...now I've got a few more brands on my too try list

[Deathwish238]

So then why is it that I usually get a buzz from Tangiers but not from Romman which apparently has a higher nicotine %? That doesn't make sense...

[r1v3th3ad]

guess it depends on previous sessions and packjobs, as well as heat
from what I've read, it takes more heat to get Tangiers going right, but not so much for Romman...could be the higher temperature combustion rate?

Isn't 0.11% less than 0.5%?

i cant imagine romman really being .5% and fusion being .3%??

if its washed, its practically devoid of nicotine.

tangiers is the only tobacco and gives me a buzz. ive had romman with no buzz at all Edited April 5, 2008 by Scoop

could be the breed of tobacco

[seefoodlover]

Thanx for the info Some of those sound exotic

[Sonthert]

You have to assume (wrongly, perhaps) that all manufacturers are honest and correct in their numbers for nicotine. For instance, Tangiers at .3-.4% seems much stronger to me than Nahkla or Layalina which are both listed at .5%. Nahkla seems also much stronger than Layalina. Nahkla "Al Basha" is listed as .05% as is Starbuzz , but Al Basha seems much stronger to me...the only explanation is that the numbers are largely inconsistent or wrong, assuming my perceptions are correct, that is.

[Bulldog_916]

They might have to post .5% as the maximum percentage of nicotine that you will get in a container. If it is under that amount, they put .5% as a standard. If it's .05% then anything below that fits that standard. I think that's a pattern among shisha makers is that they strive to keep it below that percentage. Once they do, their job is done.

Thats all i know

I feel stupid asking, but what are these percentages of? I mean, Tangiers is .3% nicotine per.... gram?

[Reyomit]

well, think of a percent as being one part in a hundred,

so, for example, .5% would equate to one part in two hundred.

so take however many grams you have, divide it by 200, and that is amount of nicotine (grams)
1 grams tobacco, .005 grams nicotine
10 grams tobacco, .05 grams nicotine
20 grams tobacco, .1 grams nicotine
250 grams tobacco , 1.25 grams nicotine

I'm still confused and must think about this to get my head around it but thank you for the answer. Me and numbers do not mix at all. Why do they use percentages with shisha and miligrams with cigarettes?

+1 completely agree, I am also guessing this is their philosophy when they are loading their 50g sample boxes

(I'm still not convinced 50g samplers actually have 50g in them)

[FactorE]

i sometimes get buzzed of AF but never starbuzz and fusion althought they all have the same 0.05% so im thinking its very inconsistent and AF have more nic.
