bradleyclark86 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 So I tried making my own shisha. I had some pipe tobacco called Mrs. Buttersworth. Very tasty flavor. Went by Kroger's and got some honey and then to a local cake supply shop to pick up some glycerin. I mixed it all in a left over HH tub I had. Added honey from time to time so the tobacco was good and wet. Currently smoking it right now and it's AMAZING!! Has a nice hazelnut flavor. Kind of a mix between top shelf coffee and pancakes. I was generous with the glycerin but the smoke is still mildly thin. Pictures coming soon as soon as I find the cable for my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradleyclark86 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Oh, I forgot to mention... I didn't wash the tobacco so it's buzz heavy. (I forgot how to edit my original post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradleyclark86 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Alright y'all. I've got pictures (as promised). First...the tobacco. It's called Mrs. Buttersworth. I got it at a pipe and cigar shop in Lexington.[attachment=2814:Buttersworth.jpg]Now the honey and glycerine...[attachment=2815:honey_an...lycerine.jpg]I took an old Hookah Hookah tub and washed it out real well. I filled it roughly half way with the tobacco. Didn't press it or anything; left it fluffy. Then I lightly squirted the honey on top and stirred it up with charcoal tongs. I repeated it over and over until it was good and moist. I would put the lid on and let it sit from time to time, giving the tobacco a chance to soak up the honey. I repeated this throughout the day, slowly adding more honey until it was drenching wet. When I was done, there was some slight excess left in the tub. Next I squirted in drops of the glycerine, stirred it up...squirt, stir, squirt, stir, etc. I thought I was generous with it, but upon smoking, I found it needed MUCH more. Here's a pic of the finished product...[attachment=2816:mixed.jpg]MMMMM, MMMM!! Sticky icky goodness! Hope y'all enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
