Hookah Love Blog

A recent restocking of our Al Waha Shisha Tobacco got me thinking that it really deserves some props. The name Al Waha is actually Arabic for “the oasis,” even though in our post Shisha shisha everywhere, which one do I smoke?, Christopher jokingly said it was Arabic for “the Waha,” a subtle nod to [...]

The smallest Egyptian we manufacture, the Scarab (1 hose) Hookah, is aptly named after the sacred beetle of Ancient Egypt, one that was believed to propel the sun across the heavens. I’ve mentioned this hookah before, but I still think it doesn’t get enough love. It may be only 18 inches tall, but it’s the [...]

Like the art of growing the Bonsai tree, getting Tangiers Hookah Tobacco to smoke perfectly takes patience and craftiness. Because of its robust design and sensitivity to heat, several factors need to be taken into account — humidity acclimation, packing style, and coal rotation all need to be managed meticulously. Even though one customer [...]

Smoke hookah at your work desk? Don’t mind if I do! While most may not have the pleasure (or the permission) to smoke their hookah at work, those with home offices (or those that work at a hookah company, haha) can enjoy a bowl of mint, mango, or margarita shisha while clacking away [...]

While our Mya Obelisk Hookah is not inhabited by a God, it is [...]

What on earth is this strange white matter falling from the sky? To say the least, it’s not very often that we get snow in Central Texas, but sure enough this afternoon we experienced this rare phenomenon. We were so shocked that we asked our Twitter followers to suggest their favorite flavors to [...]

When I read the below Fumari blog my first reaction was “I wish I had written this blog!” As mentioned by my coworker Scott, Fumari is a premium hookah tobacco that we here at Hookah-shisha.com have developed a deep affinity for.  The smoke is London fog thick and the flavors are rich and true to [...]

While it may seem that we only rave about Romman and Starbuzz as being the cat’s meow of shishas, we can’t forget about our other great premium brand Fumari Shisha Tobacco!.  It’s due time we show them some love, so here we present their 5 best and most popular flavors:

Before I worked at hookah-shisha.com my shisha palate was far from refined. I thought smoke pouring out of the bowl and a few heavy coughs after a long drag were normal, even preferred. I was young, naive and not well acquainted in the subtle nuances of different flavors that can be unleashed with a well-tended [...]
