ChicagoRSX Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I was setting up a bowl this past weekend, when I opened a package of some Golden Layalina my fiancee picked up awhile ago. I was surprised( and I don't exactly know why, just assumed it wasn't) to find out it was dyed red. If I had to place my surprise on something it's cause it was Chocolate flavor, and I guess I didn't expect red, you know? And I always hear how everyone hates that Starbuzz uses dye, so I guess due to my lack of experience with many different brands, I thought SB was the only one. So other then Tangiers, does anyone else not dye their Shisha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawhee Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 im sure nakhla isnt dyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_lunchb0x Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 acutally Nak uses dye as well, some flavor get red dye others get a gold dye. As far as I know two brands dont dye, Tangiers and Social smoke..interesting thing is they are both made in the u.s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vendetta_revived Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 But why the hell do they dye it anyway?!? Why increase cost of production on such a useless (and possibly harmful) additive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natgnat Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Pretty sure Social Smoke is dyed with the golden color. Guess that just leaves Tangiers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hassouni Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Does nobody here smoke Nakhla two apples? That shit is deep red. Al-Waha DA I think is undyed. It's a sort of brown color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Also, Starbuzz mojito - that green dye is so horrifically off-putting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antouwan Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 i'm pretty sure they all dye - even tangiers from what i (think) i remembered eric saying. i could be wrong, but i believe he said he dyes black (or it could be from the blackstrap molasses used in production). all of the super "natural"-looking amber colored tobaccos out there - those are dyed... imo, the most disgusting dyes are the obvious deep greens, blues, and reds - bleck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellz Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I always thought hookah-hookah wasnt dyed, it didnt look like it was anyway. Still sucks pretty bad. But I really do not think it is dyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected. Just thought that the golden color wasn't authentic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
