best buzz

[nargile_men]

Anyone think that the brand has an impact on buzz?  I have no idea if it's because i haven't smoked in a month, but i went to a lounge and it hit me hard.  I am used to Romman and Al fakher.. - i have read reviews on flavors and companies and am curious if anyone thinks a company matters.

[cypress]

In my opinion its the brand and flavor. My experience is that even in
the same brand i have different levels of a buzz. So far the best buzz
i have gotten is from hookah hookah margarita. 

[ZooJohnnyZETA]

I agree with Cypress. The buzz varies quite a bit from brand to brand and on ocassion from flavor to flavor.

  Romman doesnt make my head spin anymore, but I recall that at
one point I smoked some Romman Double Apple that had me almost falling
out of my chair from the buzz.

 The next time I tried that flavor I only felt a mild relaxing feeling.


I've tried many brands of massell over the past few years... Nakhla,
Al-Waha, Romman, Al-Fakher (all 3 lines), Splash, Sultan, Al-Amir, and
a few others as well.

In all this smoking I have found one brand of massell that gives me a
huge buzz and head rush everytime I smoke it.  This brand being,
"Sultan".  The flavor of Sultan is very subtle and by no means
strong.

 Its not a massell you would by for flavor, and in no way compares
to the flavor of Al-Fakher. I keep it on hand only for the times when I
really need to unwind from a stressful day.

  Although Sultan might make a very good tasting massell that I
havnt tried, seeing as how I have only tried Tutti Fruitti and Peach.
The Tutti Fruitti has a very soft cotton candy sort of flavor to it,
but thats really not what you smoke Sultan  brand massell for
anyway. The flavor isnt at all offensive, its just VERY (and I mean
very) light.


If your interested in trying some Sultan brand massell I suggest
checking out

And if you try Sultan and don't care for it then its no big loss because Sultan only costs $7 a jar.


If you want a great buzz that is my best recommendation to you. Give it a try and let me know what you think

condition of the hookah also seems to be a factor, ever since i FINALLY
cleaned it out, the buzz aint as good, the smoke is smoother and better
tasting, looks thick enoguh, but doesnt 'feel' as thick, and the buzz
is a bit weaker, im tihnkin it might be the water level though, i
should go check that right now, update in a little bit after if empty
some fo the water and start a new bowl...

[NERV]

o yeah, thats the stuff, my water was too high

[HAKOOH]

ROMMAN PEACH gives me the craziest buzz. That stuff is incredible.
Eskandarandi Apple does it for me too from the Golden Fakher line. Of
all the shisha ive smoked nothing beats the Romman Peach.

Try not cleaning out your pipe for a few days, or weeks...that should give you a heck of a buzz

I think the fungus growing in the water adds to the buzz in this case.

[NERV]

things to increase the buzz:

smoke on an empty stomach, but dont smoke hungry, you know, that time
about 2-3 hours after you eat where the food is out of your sotmach but
you arent hungry yet, that is the best time.
the harder and longer the pull, the better, just make sure your arent smoking anytihgn thatll burn easy.
as previously mentiooned by me, less water = better buzz, u dont want
too little water thos cuz then the smoke cud be harsh, needs to be just
right.
yes a dirty hookah will give you a better buzz, but it will also not taste that good and the smoke wont be as smooth.
UNCONFIRMED i believe that either mixing something into the water or
using somethign other than water may increase the buzz because it will
reduce the liquid's filtration effectiveness

dont use foil, lol it will work, but then you will propbly be doing the
equivalent of inhaling a cigar, so dont do that unless u have a death
wish

Are you implying in putting the coal right on top of the tobacco? 
um if so that's a little bit too hardcore for me. but perhaps maybe i
shall try just out of curiosity/stupidity

[NERV]

lol, like i said, dont do it unless u have a death wish, my local
hookah show will put the coals directly on the tobacco if you want, i
have tried it, it is VERY strong and im sure is quite unhealthy so i
dont do it much

[Clithoris007]

nerv
out of curioisity what flavors have you tried this on?  a cat has
nine lives i tihnk by just trying once i will lose one already. but
anyways back to the subject, what flavors have ut ried? which do u
prefer to at least taste the flavor?

[NERV]

well i dunno well this will work at home, they use natural coals and a
different type of bowl, very shallow and wide and they pile it up high,
but ive done it with plain, apple, and strawberry, it doesnt really
change the flavor but the smoke is so strong its almost impossible to
take a long drag without coughing and you are lightheaded after 1 or 2
puffs

[King Mo]

I dont get a buzz from shisha any more, as i smoke too much anyway. If you are a cigarette smoker, then any buzz is very very limited indeed.
things likely to give a buzz, Zaghlool, Nakhla double apple, or the Qema range of tobaccos, esp Qema Apple.

I smoked cigarettes for about 8 years, and have been smoking shisha for
five years or so.  I recently quit smoking and noticed a decidedly
different effect from the hookah.  Smokers tend to get a more
relaxed, mellow, narcotic sensation that is unrelated to
nicotine.  Non-smokers tend to feel more diverse effects from the
smoke, mostly because of the nicotine (and I know, I know there's not
supposed to be much nicotine in shisha tobacco but there's still more
than none.  And none is what non-smokers have in their
systems)  Dizziness, slight euphoria, lightheadedness, etc are all
characteristics of early effects of cigarette smoking.  So, to sum
up: Non-smokers get more buzz, while smokers get the nuanced, subtler
buzz. 

ok I'm done

hey somebody here mentioned zaghoul flavorless tobacoo. is this tobacoc
dry, somewhat moist, or heavy moist like...anyways moist like fakhler
rose tobacco? im interested in this zaghoul flavorless tobacco, anybody
got comments/inputs?

[NERV]

its somewhat moist, but hardly, very sticky tho

[Clithoris007]

very sticky? i was always udne the assumption that it would be dry sice
its flavorless, but that was my assumption..im not pro status yet
unlike some of you diehards here, and i define diehards in mroe than
one way if we are all going @ the pace we smoke shisha :-)

[NERV]

ive been trying to tihnk of something to compare it to to give you an
idea but i cant tihnk of anything, zacloul or plain isnt just straight
tobacco, there is honey or molasses cuz its black or dark brown, not
green or light brown, like a dried tobacco leaf. now that i tihnk about
it, i guess it has a consistency like sticky tack, a light touch isnt
sticky, but if you pick it up, grip it, it sticks pretty strong to u

I am trying to figure out how to avoid the buzz.
I just went to a hookah lounge in Miami and used regular tobacco, got a spinning feeling in my head - which I don't like.
I thought:
1. The reason for the buzz was because there were two coals on the tobacco, making it stronger.
2. The tobacco itself.
I just bought Al-Fakher 50g brands, which I'll try, but I can't smoke hookah more than 1-2 in a week.  But I hate the Buzz - I want to avoid it as much as I can - about 3-4 years ago, I use to smoke it with friends - no buzz at all -- we just enjoyed the flavor.
And that's what I want - to just smoke the flavor.
Thanks

[NERV]

al waha, romman, and al amir, all buzz free, also quicklites should
give less of a buzz since they dont burn as hot as natural coals

[wyteboy]

I hear ya ju, the flavor is what I'm after too!
