a.) unwashed shisha made in america.
b.) it has a higher nicotine content, as it is unwashed. it tastes better, smokes better, and is reasonably priced. It has a moderately steep learning curve, though.
c.) in my experience (which is not very much), yes.
d.) YES.
e.) Lucid is the washed version, with less nicotine. I think of it as a "diet" tangiers.
f.) To acclimate tobacco is to expose it to air to compensate for the changes in humidity/climate and let it adjust. Without acclimation, Tangiers will not smoke well.
g.) hookah-shisha.com...any other hookah vendor really.


There are dozens of guides to how to 'handle' it on the forums, just look around. I'm fairly inexperienced with it, but I know the general idea...other people here will be able to help you more.

f.) To acclimate tobacco is to expose it to air to compensate for the changes in humidity/climate and let it adjust. Without acclimation, Tangiers may not smoke well. This is due to the much lower water content, the tobacco forms an equilibrium with the moisture in the air. If the tobacco and the air have different moisture contents, it will take a little time for the tobacco to "catch up". This has one added feature, it gives the tobacco an unusually long shelf life.

[clumsygrace]

You'll understand when you try it.

[Sonthert]

Yes, read the card enclosed "How to be mesmerized and a willing slave of Tangiers" thoroughly. If you don't find that card, its working already.

the acclimation answer is a bit more detailed, and i don't know what you mean by answer "c"

[Sonthert]

Damn, I edited that after you quoted it. I realized it might cost me a sale.

Then you must be packing it wrong!

sorry man, i couldn't help myself.

[dizzbizz]

I just bought two packs. Lime and Maraschino Cherry. Do you need a funnel bowl to smoke it?

[mattarios2]

no the shisha was created before the bowl. The bowl just makes it easier. read up on the HF wiki > http://www.hookahforum.com/?showtopic=21364

[shaffaaf27]

i hope that body part that grows is my P....ancreus

[dizzbizz]

Thanks for the link. The bowls they explain how to pack are the phunnels though. But its no problem. My friend explained it to me.

[thecyrax]

Where did you get lime?

[dizzbizz]

Where did you get lime?

Moon. Its a local smoke shop here in Tucson. Edited May 12, 2009 by dizzbizz

Actually, its your bresticles that grow.



I was trying to figure out why spell check was rejecting the word "Breasticles"...then I realized.

[dizzbizz]

I love breasticles.

[shaffaaf27]

why is it rjeceting breastickles? is it due to breast?

i dont think my very manly breasticles can get bigger, though my P.....ancreus could use some help....

[evilded777]

How quickly a serious question devolves to idiocy. Is this a new record?

Just don't take me seriously there. A certain amount of hilarity is always good to balance the serious.

Excellent answers from both Sonthert and Gorilla.

My advice: smoke it, introduce others to it, smoke it more.

[ilikemyusername]

I love breasticles.

sounds freaky to me.

[FamiliarJoe]

I second that username.

I try to stay away from that kind of stuff...
