I'm Switching To Zaghloul


Recommended Posts

So first off I'd like to know how many of you out there smoke zaghloul regularly. and what is the best way to get the most out of it. I just think that switching to zaghloul will make me more hard-core.

There are two ways really, the real way... and then the pussy way.

First off take zag and add a little touch of glycerine/honey just to get it re-wetted... idk about you but the stuff I've gotten in the past was always old and pretty darn dry. You don't want it to be as wet as shisha, but it should be stickier than pipe tobacco.

Real way: Pop that stuff in a bowl, pile on some coals, and puff it to your heart's content. Deep inhaling is not recommended.

Pussy way: Add a good bit of extra glycerine, pack it into a bowl, and smoke it like normal shisha... only it'll taste like zag.

If you're interested in this stuff you might also want to try Desi Murli, it's cheaper, and IMO tastes much, much smoother than zag, while still having a very classic tobacco taste.

Zag is pretty sharp in terms of flavor, and if you smoke it with coals on top it will just be a shitty experience, and taste like burning tobacco. The way in which you mix it with glycerin and honey makes it so you can actually taste the tobacco.

But Desi Murli is 100x better. And it comes in a bunch of good flavors, some not fruit.

I mix Zaghoul with a wet shisha and use foil. I've had it straight up without foil and it was nice but rough. If you go the no foil route I suggest smoking outside.

The real way is the only way if you wanna be a man. minus the extra glyceren. If you go with Tombal/ajamy then check out the video i posted in the video section.

I believe it's also traditional to put sliced fuit in the water when smoking the direct heat stuff.
