theoneandonly Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Alright So Ive been smoking for a while and Ive been thinking about ordering shisha online for while now. Ive been smoking mostly from my local lounge which is mainly fumari and layalina products. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with deciding on good flavors from any other company to order from cause Im kinda getting sick and tired of having to pay $ 7 for 50 grams of shisha when I smoke on a regular basis with my friends[img]http://www.hookahforum.com/forum/smileys/smiley18.gif[/img]. I really didnt like the hookah hoookah tabacco cause It was to thin and didnt smoke that well. Any brands that anyone recommend with online shopping.. Any input will be greatly appreciated Thank you in advance[img]http://www.hookahforum.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding_Heart1 Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Al waha is a good tobacco in the low end. They have a good cherry, blueberry, and kiwi. Im sure there are more, but thats what i have sampled. Al Fakher is a really good shisha thats not to bad. They have awesome flavors, use the search on here to find reviews.For more pricy shisha, check out Golden Al fakher and romman.Hope this helped.

theoneandonly Posted July 23, 2006 Author Share Posted July 23, 2006 Thank you very much. The only thing that i was worried about with ordering online was the humidity shock here down in tucson,az since the weather has been soo random. I didnt want to order and then spoil my entire batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGuy Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 if you leave it to acclimatize for a few hours before smoking, you should be okay. Yeah, the top end tobacco's are considered to be Tangier and Al Fakher. Romman is an expensive "premium" tobacco although there is much debate as to if it's worth it though.

theoneandonly Posted July 23, 2006 Author Share Posted July 23, 2006 Yea Im pretty much sick of the prices that I have to pay. I was just wondering about the humidity shock mainly cause the weather down here is so damn random that one day it will be pouring like no other and the next day we are breaking 110. Sh*ts crazy I love fumari. The only good thing about buying from my shop is that Im able to mix and match flavors to get some pretty weird and good mixes. But I'm on the verge of whipping out my credit card and just order the party pack from fumari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilotaku Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I'm located in Tucson,AZ as well. I mostly smoke indoors anyways and i just let my maassell sit out a few hours before i smoke it if i know i haven't opened up the container in a while to let it acclimate. Don't worry about spoiling the maassell, its pretty hard to do that and its pretty rugged stuff. I just mainly keep mine in a tupperwear container, the disposable kind. My personal favorites at the moment are:Al Fakher -Orange-Golden black Grape-Melon-Vanilla(as a mixer with orange)Al Waha-Peach-Apricot-watermelonTangiers-Kashmir peach(gotta do the right amount of heat management with this stuff)I agree with you on the paying too much for a bowl of hookah deal. Its crazy to pay 7-9 bucks for mediocre maassel and even worse when you get a "bad bowl" thats harsh. Its nice to sit home and hang out with friends smoking Good maassell. I like to buy a lotta my maassell from hookah-shisha.com and hookahcompany.com. They both have forum discounts. If you need any other help/tips, contact me via aim "lilotaku3".

ksblazer Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 $7 for 50 grams ouch!! I guess I'm kind of luck to have a couple of local stores around my area that sell shisha for 25 to 50 cents more than I can buy it online. But that is only for Romman and Al Waha. That bieng said I made a big purchase from hookah company as they have a very nice selection of Shisha to choose from. I've only tried a few different kinds of shisha but really liked Romman Peach AW After nine Layalina Esk Apple (I'm sure you have tried it already though) What I did before making my purchase was doing a search for flavors that I enjoy (apple, mint, peach etc) as well as lines of shisha.

lilotaku Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 yeah, its pretty expensive around here. I've been smoking hookah for almost 4yrs now and just this year i went out to a hookah bar with some friends to see what the local areas sold and i was pretty suprised with the prices. I guess price wise though its usually the average in most cities to pay anywhere from 6-15 dollars because your mostly paying for the scenery no matter how bad/good the maassell is......

MrGuy Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 our local shisha bar charges £4 ($7.50) for a head, hence me buying my own hookah next payday:DI recommend any brand mint, even if you don't like it straight, it's a great mixer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glottis Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I always say that everyone should try Al Fakher Cola once in their life. For me, it was a religious experience, and I don't consider myself a religious man. Weird maybe, but not religious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Lol, talking about expensive? You know those little "hookah shots" from hookah hookah? $2 a pop. Yay for local hookah bar being kinda expensive... and they're service isn't *great* for hookah smoking. Very annoying to get a small hookah between three people so it gets crappy pull, and then tasting like salvia on top of that Once I get enought money up, I'm seriously considering opening up a hookah store.

Jeff_T Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Wow, its cool to see some members on here are from Tucson. I think i was the only one last year... anywho, i was in the same boat with buying Fumari from Smiley's, but then it was only $6 (about a year ago). I was gone over the school year and Smiley's has really changed; its not that enjoyable anymore. If you t-town guys ever want to meet up and smoke or chip-in and split an order I would be down.

DrunkenWizard Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I live in Tucson as well. You can go to just about any smoke shop and buy 50 grams of shisha for $3.00. They have most brands too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
