emperorsubzero Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Greetings/السلام عليكم Firstly, does anyone use nicotine-free Shisha? I have only found one brand and it is made from sugar and produced in India called [b]Soex[/b]. Does anyone know a better brand? My main problem is that (even with nicotine-rich Shisha), I can't get almost ANY taste of fruit. Even when I add fruit juice, wine, or even whiskey, I get nothing. I'd much rather take my health over taste. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this?

SanguineSolitude Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 um if you get no flavor its probably one of three things. 1. your hookah is not airtight. take the bowl off the hookah and put your hand on the top of the stem. suck in through the hose. you should get no air at all. like you were sucking out of a glass bottle. if you get air you need to submerge the hookah in water and find the leak (plug the holes that should be there) 2. Heat management. you may be burning the shisha or otherwise not managing heat properly. if the other two possibilities arent working try reading a setup guide or smoking tips section on the forum. 3. bad tobacco. what kind are you using? havana, layalina, starbuzz, tangiers, al waha, nakhla(some of it), al fakher all have decent amounts of flavor, depending on the flavor you pick. im imagining your hookah isnt airtight or you have crappy shisha. tell us what you smoke!

SanguineSolitude Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 oh and tobacco free shisha is about as pleasant as alchohol free beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 also remeber not all people taste the same. it could be your body just isnt picking it up all that well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emperorsubzero Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 Thanks. My hookah doesn't have any airholes or any problem there; I checked. Thanks for that suggestion. For nicotine-free I use Soex, the only brand available as far as I know. For normal Shisha I have tried al Waha, Nahklah, even the Cuban brands. Since I've never had Shisha that had full fruit taste, maybe this is as good as it gets? haha. Any ideal brand to suggest for full taste? And you're wrong about wine. I've seen many sites suggest it and I've never had a more pleasant smoke. Try it when you can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Tangiers will sneek up and grab you in the boo boo's , great strong flavor, you can't even take long puffs because it's so strong, try that out and see what you think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macho555 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Yeah, wine in the vase is definatly nice, especially that cheap concord wine. Smoke that with Layalina black grape, and its almost orgasmic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguineSolitude Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 layalina and havana have given me lots of flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I like waha, nakhla, fumari, and rommans. I have tried other brands but I have the most experiance with those and they are really good. Fumari and romman are a bit (ok, more than a bit) overpriced, but they are good if you want to spend the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattlePope Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Just out of curiosity, why do you smoke if its not for the buzz or rush? I can see how it's an extremely sociable thing but if lets say you smoke by yourself. Why? If I wanted a nice flavor I'd probably just eat whatever I wanted. Just curious...

DizzyGuy Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Well, I find that even when I'm not getting a buzz, it's still nice to go through the actions... One of those things that just kinda slow you down and help chill. Plus playing with the smoke is fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookahs4you.com Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 its not suppose to be for the buzz that you smoke shisha. Its for the enjoyment and the chill factor. Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy[/quote] Eh, this varies from person to person though. While it is nice just to smoke, I personally getting a buzz varying to just relaxed to flat out "whoa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
