My bros smoked them for like 5 solid years and we got the hang of which brands and types of coals/shisha.

Get a decent setup, not too expensive, not cheapest ever, not too tall, those fukers tip over easy. So shorter one.


Flavors you can go through to find your favorites You'd be surprised how some sound good but taste like ****, and vise versa. The ones I bought in a bazaar in Egypt were the best, never found as good of ones in the states. Can't remember which brands they were and don't think I took any pics.

I do remember you can't skimp on putting a small amount of shisha in the bowl, as you don't want it to burn, and larger packed bowls prevented much burning. You'll learn how to move the coal around the top of the bowl to keep an even cook and avoid hotspots.


As for coals, we tried actual charcoal and other methods, but found out the round pucks that come in a silver alumi8num foil type wrapper were the best for out needs.
I think we used kings like this one:https://www.smokeyshays.com/wp-conte...BBF78285A.jpeg


Been a decade plus since we all hung out doin that chit, good times.















During nice summer nights the boys and I would lug a table, light, some rum, and the hookah up on the roof to enjoy the sunset (no homo, obviously)

In the middle east its mostly adults who do it. And there are hookah bars on every corner. Even in the states there are hookah bars. definitely not a teenager scene. And its not weed usually in these, its flavored tobacco, like really sticky clumps of tobacco.

Maybe you're thinking of smoking a bong with weed, because no high schoolers smoked hookah.

I know kids used to do it back in high school. Was all the craze among certain groups. And there's a Hookah bar not too far from me, always young kids hanging out there. College hipsters. Never heard of adult men smoking flavored tobacco though.

Well thats what I mean. Its kinda the 20-30 year old thing to do here in the US, but men of all ages, and especially older guys smoke it in the middle east.


But not a high school thing

What do you mean? Its not like shooting up meth and sleeping in a tweaker den for a week at a time... Its something you do when hanging out, like having a beer and watching _____ or discussing business stuff or guns or whatever.

Do you recommend a particular setup? That's my whole point of making this thread LOL. It's hard to decipher what is actually a good product on the internet. (Super Ded fkn Srs)

Smoking is bad for ya. Tobacco is a waste. Stick to weed if you're gonna smoke anything.

Man, its been a decade or more, I'm kinda rusty on exact brands and chit.

We went through a number of hookas, the hoses wear out, get kicked over and broken, etc. A lot of them will be fancy looking chinese chit. Like super thin metal, look fancy, but will break after a week, so go for a nice thick glass base, without all the ornamental nonsense, all you need is heavy duty feeling hoses without tassels and dumb frilly chit. Find a smoke shop and ask the sales guys whats the most durable ones, and then feel them. If it feels like hollow chineseum you could snap with three fingers, avoid...


I'm sure youtube has a lot of vids showing the current trends and best stuff out there, I'm way outta date on this, and I never went all in like my buddies did (I never owned one or smoked full time like them)

Except that shisha isNOT smoking burning plant leaves like a cigar and cigarettes do

Shisha is a very sticky wet mass, and you steam them to get the smoke, probably similar to vaping. When it starts to burn, you get horrible smoke that makes you cough like a mother, and you KNOW you got it too hot and burning... Its a very fine tuning thing, moving the coal every minute or so, so that you only get vapor, NOT burning smoke.You literally want to keep the shisha (tobacco) moist.

Sure thing! For a great at-home hookah setup, consider investing in a quality hookah pipe like a Khalil Mamoon or a modern option like a Zahrah. Pair it with a phunnel bowl for optimal flavor retention and a washable hose for easy maintenance. Don't forget high-quality shisha tobacco and coconut coals for the best smoking experience. Enjoy your hookah sessions responsibly!

had to google, and the khalil thing looks like a retarded jinky chinese made piece of ****.

Looks tall as **** and gaudy as hell.

OP don't get that, itll fall down and burn your rug within 5 uses.







Get this brand of coals (not sur3e if this is best price or not but looks OK)https://www.amazon.com/THREE-KINGS-4.../dp/B07576C6DL


And some SHORT hookah like this:

https://www.amazon.com/GSTAR-Premium.../dp/B009F27LPG
https://www.amazon.com/Hookah-Set-Sh.../dp/B0C69757SG
https://www.amazon.com/Zebra-Smoke-P.../dp/B017L4PX2C

These short little oens are way better. Not the phæggy ultra tall oens with tons of bells and wind chimes and flashy bullshit that you don't need since you're not a fukin arabic cab driver
