TizaNabi Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Hi,As I've written before, in Israel we mostly get Nakhla from Egypt,and from Jordan Al-Waha, Al-Ouns,Abed-El Khader, Saet Safa.So when I saw Orient shisha in a shop I was curious and I bought a few flavours :Watermelom.Cantelope ,Strawberry, Double Apple and Mango. I had the Mango first and flipped! It was exotic!Since the shop was closed I had strawberry too and Double Apple as a good compairison and they were also terrific. I had to hold myself tied (almost) to my chair so I'd not run out and break into that shop.The next day, I got a few boxes of all 13 flavours. I understand that it was just something the owner got for trial so I went online to see if it's "sold American" , but no.Its only available in Germany where they make it. I see they have available all 13 also on this website in Germany.http://www.relaxshop-kk.de/wasserpfeifen-s...o-c-96_139.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog_916 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 They probably use really good tobacco for their shisha. Anything of the orient or from turkey (oriental or turkish tobacco) is going to generally be good from what I've gathered. Turkish tobacco is highly prized in places like Egypt and Lebanon. I'm trying to find a place that sells traditional stuff locally. The pipe tobacco that I've seen is crazy expensive by the ounce. So I'm looking for whole leaf tobacco or seeds so that I can try growing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog_916 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The tobacco is likely imported from Turkey or one of the surrounding countries. It's small leaf tobacco that's sun cured. Very low nicotine content. That's what I was going to grow for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
