Hassouni Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Or German websites, but it is MADLY expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 If you're located here in the States, then it's hard to obtain Turkish made hookah tobacco. But if you do find it, it's pretty good stuff. Best of luck man. Few people on here can point you in the right way once they see your thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I could, I'd have to dig up the sites, but honestly it's CRAZY expensive. Like, €15 a 250 + shipping or something absurd like that. Kilos are €50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRSX Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Is there something different about Turkish shisha? I mean over all. I'm sure they have their own flavors, but I'm curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouda Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I'm with Chicago. What's the big deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It was like Nakhla Mizo, but better. The flavors I tried anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 yeah, basically. Also, a lot more flavors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightHawk63 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Othmani is Turkish, you can get it at medwakh.com, cheap shipping and the flavors are excellent from what I have heard. The fruit flavors are not candy like, rather more natural tasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Does Othmani SAY it's made in Turkey? Because otherwise I HIGHLY doubt it. There's really only one factory in Turkey that makes the good stuff on a mass-production level, that's the Smyrna Tobacco Co, they make Rosanna and a couple others.

There's really only one factory in Turkey that makes the good stuff on a mass-production level, that's the Smyrna Tobacco Co, they make Rosanna and a couple others. Under Adana Berry it says this: Our Turkish moassals represent the most primal flavor profiles, moassal as it was made and smoked 400 years ago. Nothing too sweet, darker tobacco tones, and an emphasis on spiced flavors. The tobacco used for these flavors is a richer more robust darker tobacco, and the flavors added serve only to complement and enhance the premium imported tobacco. Now it doesn't say that it is MADE in Turkey anywhere but I'm sure if you email them, Bassem will let you know whether or not it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Keep in mind "Turkish tobacco" is merely a style of tobacco - most of it comes from the Balkans. It's likely to be a reference to that. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_tobacco) Also most of Turkey was smoking plain unflavored tömbeki until quite recently, so that's some nice made-up marketing there :lol: Edit: upon further research, Othmani has a "Turkish line," "Lebanese line," "Arabic line" and forthcoming "Khaleeji line"...and I bet they're all made in the exact same factory.

Chreees Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Rosanna/Elmas tobacco is the stuff I tried, what Hassouni is talking about. Premium grade A shit, man. Some of the flavors were light, but man were they good. Caramel is like their king flavor. It's seriously mouth-watering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightHawk63 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 That's some good research! I wasn't aware of Othmani's other styles, that's good to know. I suppose it's safe to say that it's not made in Turkey. Now Othmani pipes on the other hand, I believe those are made in a Turkish factory. Don't quote me on that though. I'm going to ask my friend from Turkey about how to acquire their tobaccos. She has said they have oodles of plain tobaccos there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
