Re: The Hookah Thread

I would like to see how many of our fellow members enjoy smoking hookah, arghile, nargila.. or whatever else you may call it. Sure, it was "popular" in Los Angeles years ago, when little kids would go to "The Spot" to smoke but I have always just enjoyed it at my own house.

I hardly ever smoke mine but I don't mind lighting it up every now and then. I was just wondering if you guys would like to share whether or not you own one. If you do, I was wondering what brands and flavors of tobacco you use, what brand of charcoal, and any tips you may have for a better smoking session.

I own a Bohemian Glass Hookah. The hose I use is the one that came with it because I can't find a better one. I don't like the hose at all because it leaks and is really cheap. I'm currently on the look for the "best" hose, something not fancy at all, something that is durable and is made for smoking, not for looks.

I currently use Al Fakher tobacco because of their wide selection of flavors and the fact that they're actual pretty good. I am considering switching to a better brand, something with a better variety in flavors. I am also on the look out for that as well. I typically smoke once a month or even less, depending on who is around me. I really need to change my hose and bowl because they're really cheap.

Please, share.

first of all use always apple for the tast is better then the others and its more stronger then other flavors..second dont use the charcoal the round ones..use the square charcoals..and before the preperation of the water and filling the tabacco..about 5 min put the base of the hookah to the fridge as the tast will be cooler and the hose...that what i do i own a hookas and i use the same method...after placin the foil on top(remember the shiny face on top not on the bottom so every hit on it the charcoal stays stable..on top) you can check on www.youtube.com for the hookas smoking tips good luck

Hookah/Narghilè

Recently my uncle got one, and my mother was lecturing him about how it's not an armenian thing to do, that we weren't Arabs, and that in all there years in Lebanon they never owned one. The same argument comes up at church when it comes to the younger generations heading off to hookah/narghilè bars.

However the other day i was with some friends and they were showing me pictures of their trip to Armenia this summer and sure enough there were hookah/narghilè pics. So is hookah/narghilè an accepted thing for Armenians to do? or is it totally un Armenian?

Re: The Hookah Thread

i've smoked the hookah, can't say i really enjoyed it, there's absolutely no buzz, the only time i find it fun is when i'm with friends b/c we do things like smoke rings, see who can hold the smoke in the longest, or get bubbles, and blow the smoke through them. So it's more about acting stupid with friends and laughing about it, than smoking. I don't ever really smoke it by myself

Re: The Hookah Thread

I used to smoke it occasionally, but when I quit cigarettes, hookah went out of the door as well.

Smoking it alone makes no sense
With friends its more like a past time activity.
