Herbal Shisha

[Deadlegend]

Hello everyone.

Im a new member here. I recently started smoking hookah and the other day i was browsing hookahhookah.com, and saw the herbal black label shisha. I was interested in it, so when i found little sample shots of it at the head shop up the street from me i decided to buy some of it.

Ive looked up on the net the ingredients of herbal shisha's (supposedly black label is "secret" ingredients) and have found answers from everything from its just made from sugar cane, to various psycoactive herb blends, ie damiana, corn poppy, dagga, etc.

I was just wondering if anyone knows any of the ingredients that are in hookah hookahs black label shisha.


Another question i have is this:

How do i use various herbs (hops, passion flower, damiana, st,johns wort, lavender) to make my own herbal shisha.

All of these herbs have a history of being used as relaxants and anti anxietys when smoked, only problem is, when smoking these herbs alone, they are VERY VERY HARSH. Cant even really take more than a hit of them without choking the shit outa yourself. And i figure that maybe making a shisha out of them might make them smoother.

Thanks for the halp guys. Edited August 20, 2009 by delSol_si

I have no idea what Black label is made of.

I never had any experience with making my own shisha, but try adding a bit of honey and food grade glycerin to those herbs. Do not add too much though.

Double foil, and use only 1 coal, or even maybe half a coal. Slowly add heat rather than throwing a bunch on at once.

I personally would try to steer clear of herbal shisha I have yet to find any thats worth the time or effort

[*sigh*]

Most "herbal" shisha's are sugar cane based. They aren't really herbal at all.

The thing about true herbs is you would not be able to have all the crazy flavors. Sure you could make mint or something, but using some very aromatic herbs would make it much harder to get good accurate flavors.

HH black label seems to be made out of sticks, its not bad for an herbal shisha, but whats even better is salloum? i think its spelled, not bad at all,actually pretty freaking good! I was sent a sample of tiramisu wich I put a review up for, by far, hands down, the best herbal I've had, between the 3 brands, soux being the third.
