Grand Nagus Zek Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) A few years ago I found a hookah in the trunk of my car I set it up and put it in the corner of my room ontop of a bookshelf and waited for a friend to claim it. Well its been like 3 years now so I guess I just forgot about it Anyways I have ordered alot of 50g boxes of alot of different brands of shisha from two different sites, and am anxiously waiting for them the arrive. So as I was waiting, I was curious which of the Herbal shisha's people prefered. Most of the shisha's I ordered are tobacco, but there are lots of topics about them for me to read.The two Herbal shisha's I ordered are several flavors of Soex and Saalaam.Which do you guys prefer? and are there any others?

norcalsmoker Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Soex is absolute crap. Saalaam isn't that bad but I have only tried the Key Lime Pie. In my opinion Hydro Herbal Shisha takes the lead. It's the only herbal shisha I would consider smoking. I have had blueberry, blackberry, grape, and orange. All of them were okay, they actually had flavor unlike most herbal shishas. Herbal shisha kind of sucks compared to actual shisha tobacco but if you want to go the herbal route I would consider Hydro Herbal Shisha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I think you are going to get few replies that are on topic because most of us think ANY herbal shisha is pretty nasty. They use sugar cane fibre instead of tobacco and to be quite honest, is smoking wood any better for you?Every Soex flavour I have tried has been pretty bad of the 15-20 minutes itactually HAD a flavour. Never tried any of the others. Check the shisha review section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likespaceships Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 saalaam has good flavor but has a funny after taste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBKakes Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 On the rare occasion I do smoke "herbal" (and I use the term loosely, because like mush said, its wood/bagasse)I like Salaam. The Spiced Chai is amazing and would smoke this regularly if there was a tobacco equivalent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inino Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 there was a thread a while back about the herbal stuff causing some kind of fibrous effect to the lungs which was really bad. the only one i have tried was saalaam and it was good smoke, good flavor, retched after taste. have something to drink is all i can say.

Bookworm Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 salaam breeze o' mint has really nice clean flavor, but it has no buzz at all which does turn me away from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
