To answer @rdunnion from a few posts back, I smoke Nakhla Zaghoul, Nakhla Khan el Khalili, Salloum Plain, Desi Murli Plain, and Desi Murli Gold Plain. Those are all plain black shisha tobaccos that are excellent and fairly easy to find and order. I smoked my first head of Desi Murli Gold plain and cant even imagine how having it flavored would help. The taste is wonderful. It is very much like smoking the flavors of 6 photo with a very natural, slightly sweet taste. It is awesome.
@thendrix65804 Desi Murli Plain is one I look forward to trying, our tastes seem to be similar, thanks!
I’ve cleaned up this thread, lets keep it on topic… PLEASE. Transistor, please heed the warning, we hate banning people.
So I can’t talk about the hooka night light? Of course I kid.
Sorry guys I shouldn’t have let things get the better of me.
I have a turkish hookah, my wife has a Kuwaiti hookah. Now that it is swimming weather, we will be in the pool making clouds all summer long. My favorite flavors are Al Fakher Watermelon, Al Waha Raspberry and Al Fakher Cola
I love hookah smoking but I restrict myself to using a friends if Im round at his place - otherwise I would just use it all day long and get lung rot. The problem is the smoke is so deceptively cool and fragrant.
Its not really smoke, but vapor from the honey and mollases.
Fakher? *snicker snicker*
I have heard nothing but good thing about Al Fakher so i bought a lot of 50grm flavors. Problem is- I cant get a decent smoke cloud w/out choking myself. I have tried using less coals, more coals, filling my bowl loose, filling it packed, and also filiing it w/Al Waha Plum. The last bit is the only solution that worked. Any body have any tips, if not, how about some free Al Fakher. PS. http://www.hookah-shisha.com/ Free shipping on orders over $75 in the 48, or, 10% entire order till June 13.

I get wonderful clouds with 3 Kings. What kind of bowl do you use?
@Pot Poe - Check you rig for leaks. Its very simple. Just seal off the bowl with your hand and suck. If you get air there is a leak that needs to be rectified.
@potpoe have you looked to make sure your tobacco isnt touching your foil or screen? If it touches it will burn and become very harsh. You can also try moving one coal around the head often to make the heat a little lighter on the tobacco. If all else fails try double foil on the head and see if it will help. I also recommend natural coals. They are a trouble to get lit, but heat more evenly and and have less ash.
@servetus when you order your desi plain i highly recommend the Desi murli gold plain as well. If you order from hookah1 you will have to request to have it plain but he will do it for you. It is defiantly worth it.
I’d love to try hookah sometime but cash being a bit tight I don’t wanna necessarily jump in with both feet…might see if there’s a hookah lounge nearby but with Michigan’s new smoking ban I dunno if those were affected or not…
@James most states with indoor smoking bans only have hookah lounges in the summer (outdoors).
I have a hookah bar two blocks over from me…I like sisha every once in awhile, but not more than once a month at most. There just not enough tobacco flavour in my experience. Maybe its just the blends ive tried.
I have smoked hookah for about 4 years now. After having first tried it at a lounge, I proceeded to acquire my own hookah pipe and try various shisha. My favorite brands include Tangiers, Al Fakher, and Nakhla. Attactched below is a photo of my pipe.
nice I wish I had a hooka. I can’t afford a decent one right now. 
I currently have Havana Watermelon , this stuff is sick ! Waha does not float my shisha boat anymore , but their Tropicana is good .
