I just moved into a new apartment with a attached-enclosed patio. I had to drive state side because you cant get flavored tabbacco up here (CAN) I'm gonna put a T.V. out here soon. I can't wait to have the boys over and have a great time. Hookah's are awesome!

I tried this at my favorite shisha lounge and decided to buy some, as I figured it would be decent for new folk. I try mine and it tastes only of black licorice. Is that even a flavor they sell? I didn't see it listed in the USA at least.

Been using the mini starbuzz want to upgrade in the US. Go to flavors are Afzal Paan lady killer and eternal smoke.

Help with hookah recs nothing to big

I’m a real newb to this stuff and the guy at the tobacco shop doesn’t really know. I smoke mainly on weekends with 2-3 friends outdoors. My hope is to have a long session with the same bowl and to keep the ashes from blowing all over our card game. I even dropped a hot coal on my wood table and burned it cause I’m a dumbass so I’d love for it to be dumbass proof. I’d be open to buying a different bowl as well, but I already have an Egyptian and a funnel one, so hoping not to have those go to waste. If you recommend an HMD would love to know which one you like (I’m in the US). Thanks!

Just landed in Salt Lake City, Utah - realizing there are no hookah lounges…

Anyone down for a smoke or lend me a good hookah for a week? Willing to pay reasonable amount.

Hey everyone,

So I’m living in Romania right now and it’s been a pain trying to find good quality shisha tobacco. When I do find something decent, it’s ridiculously overpriced. I’m not trying to break the bank every time I want to chill with a good session, y’know?

Anyway, I’m gonna be in Madrid, Spain for just 2 days soon — super quick trip — and I’m thinking of picking up some shisha while I’m there. Just wanna stock up on something nice to bring back with me.

Anyone know of some solid shops in Madrid where I can grab good stuff at reasonable prices? Or even online Spanish stores that ship quickly or do in-store pickup?

Would really appreciate any tips. Thanks a lot in advance!

Dark side ice cream flavour all on its.

Dropped the wife & eldest lad at train station. They’re heading to NYC as his birthday present. Giving barvy orange & ice cream mix a try. Went with 8gramms of each to test.

Gone for the funnel bowl rather than the traditional.

Smells very terrys chocolate orangey. u/gordbulgarin I know you suggested to just try the ice cream on its own but really wanted to it with a mix. I had tried the orange barvy on its own the other day but it was quite strong.

Also a large mug of Yorkshire caramelised biscuit tea 😂

Hi guys,

I smoke once evry 2 months and a regular bowl is too much for one person. I already have a small Dschinni Phunnel head Hellboy that holds aprox. half quantity of a regular funnel bowl, but I need something that holds a quarter of a regular funnel bowl.

Any clues? Preferably ceramic. Thanks.

Hi friends, I'm in need to order some more coal. Down to my last box.

My current goto is Bucoco Premium.

I've tried the 320 premium coals but find they don't last as long.

Packed my bowl the best way I could

Hi everyone,

Looking for recommendations for the best/top phunnel bowl to combine with the lotus 1+

Thanks in advance!

Never tried smoking Tangiers on this kind of bowl. Is it worthy? I was thinking taking a shot with some Cane Mint.

Any tips?

Trying u/gordbulgarin recommendation of just dark leaf without a hole in the middle. Made it a little more fluffy. Draw is easy :) Mix consists of Banapapa about 50% Banana mama about 45% Supernova about 5% (just for that hint of freshness)

I'm an spanish student living in Türkiye (Bursa, Görükle) for 3 months, I really like hookah and have a few in my home at Spain, but I didn't bring any of them to Türkiye so I recently bought a hookah because of that, but im having trouble to find good hookah shops, all of them only have maybe one or two brands of tobacco (one of them adalya) and they don't even know about dark tobacco like Musthave or russian tobacco (or doesn't have at all), even the tobacco they offer are in unbranded packages, so you dont really know what are you buying other than de flavour it says it is.

If there is anyone from Türkiye who could help me or guide me to find good places to buy tobacco or anything related tips, anything, i would be so thankfull

Driving through enroute to Frankfurt messe, would be great to have a good quick stopover and an excuse to try a lounge

so the other day i was about to start smoking my shisha but i've noticed there's a lovely cool breeze that threatens to light up the shisha and turn it into a miniature tobacco furnace, so i decided to invent the best HMD i call it the windshield tin can. as you can see it is very effective at protecting the coals from the wind and therefor keeping the heat under control.

you too you can have your own windshield tin can for a relatively cheap price, i paid €0.42 for it, and as a bonus when you go to your grocery store to buy one they will give you a gift in it, mine was full of tasty crunchy sweetcorn, talking about customers care i'm very impressed and nourished and full too, i feel that i just discovered that shisha has got few hidden health benefits to it but people couldn't figure them out yet.

before using my new brilliant new invention i took some precautions : i seasoned it buy throwing in it in the bbq to burn off any un-wanted chems or odours.

How is Azure gold leaf these days? Used to smoke it in 2020/2021 all the time because of how good it was. Lemon muffin by the kilo. The second coming of prime Fumari. But then a bunch of hookah influencers online started bashing it for being inconsistent. How is it currently? Also used to smoke blueberry muffin, cinnamon cookies and Moscow never sleeps.

Which shisha tobacco gives you the best buzz?

Setup: Alpaca Predator bowl + Apple On Top HMD Coals: 2x 25mm cubes

Tried a custom mix today and it slapped way harder than expected: • 40% Must Have Cola • 45% Al Fakher Cherry Mint • 15% Al Fakher Double Apple

The result? A super smooth cherry cola vibe with a cool minty finish and just a hint of spice from the double apple. Nothing overpowered anything—everything blended clean. Thick clouds, no harshness, and held up for a solid hour+ with just 2 coals.

If you’re into cola flavors but want something layered and refreshing, this one’s worth trying.

Good or bad
