Joshmmc Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 (edited) I've owned a hookah for a while now, but due to the limited hookah product variety in my town, i've only ever smoked this terrible herbal shisha. I plan to purchase some quality shisha online, but the only place i could find within my comfort range of shipping sells strictly Layalina and Al Fahker. I've heard good things about both, but cant make a decision without some tips. Flavour suggestions would be appreciated as well. Thanks!Edit: Found another iffy site this morning, if i do decide its trustworthy, they have almost every flavour ive ever heard of, so if you have suggestions besides layalina and al fahker that a novice smoker will enjoy, feel free to add those.

Santino Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Al Fakher for the win. Try the new peach, it's amazing. Their grape is good, but lately has been getting some bad press, I still like it fine though. Mint is a must have, and the Golden Strawberry and Esk Apple are very nice.

SimplexCoda Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 dude layalina al fahkar and al waha are good. anything from hookahcompany.com hookah-shisha.com or mnhokah.com is going to be ok. gothookahs is also a legit place to buy from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blckngld760 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 i would say go with starbuzz if you have the extra money (its worth it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But many flavors are worth the price and should be a good starter since it's washed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 As a newbie.... Romman, Nakhla are easy to pack not hard to burn. Potion is pretty stinking good not much nicotine, Al Fakher is good also. Kinda also agree with Scoop smoked hookah for 9 years before I found the forum and tried Tangiers, can't believe what I was missing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 stay away from starbuzz, its junk. other than that, whats your nicotine tolerance like?if its low, stick with your washed tobacco'sif your a pack a day kinda guy like i was, you should be able to handle the unwashed.experiment and have fun. also, most companys make a 50 gram sample box and theyre only usually 2-3 dollars, af has a sale going on right now where you buy 20 and get 25 free on thier official unoficial website, but sample boxes are a great way to try something new, and if it sucks, you didn't spend 13 dollars on it!(unless its starbuzz then you're looking at around 20) and it doesn't come from scotland.have fun!and if it doesn't come from scotland.... ITS CRAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshmmc Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) nicotine tolerance is minimal, i get a thorough 20 minute buzz from a prime time mini cigar heres the list of what I eventually ended up ordering. the hookah-hookah brand shisha was one ive never heard of , nor had i ever heard of the coals but both were quite cheap so i gave em a shot.Al Fakher 50g Sample Pack (2) Melon, Grape.Layalina 50g Sample Pack (2) Cherry, Fruit Special.Hookah-Hookah 50g Sample Pack (2) Watermelon, Fruit Punch.Vivi All Natural Hookah Charcoal 250g Pack (3)It also came with some special offer, 2 free 15 gram packs of the hookah-hookah brand shisha, 2 free 50g packs of the soex herbal,and 2 packs of the quicklights ( which ill never use because they make me sick)Hopefully I`ll find something from the batch I really like, it will probably all seem incredible in comparison to this herbal ive been smoking. when i use this up ill probably do a whole bunch more samples along with maybe 250g of my favourite of what I`ve tried so far so that I know I always have at least 1 winner. Thanks for everybody`s posts and opinions on what I ordered or should order in the past are appreciated as always.
