Shisha is smoked through indirect heat from a piece of charcoal which is ignited on a screen or aluminum foil which is placed on top of the tobacco in the bowl. The smoke is drawn through hoses extended from the base which is filled with a liquid to compliment the shisha. The liquid in the base cools and filters the smoke allowing those around the hookah to enjoy a smoke which is not harsh and full of flavor. The set up is very ritualistic and a relaxing event for the smokers.
Smoking sessions will last 30 minutes or more and are more of a highlight of a get together. It is not uncommon for hookah to be the reason for the get together as you would invite some friends over for a movie or some drinks.
Shisha is available in a wide array of flavors and some more adventurous hookah smokers will experiment with mixing flavors to come up with their favorite shisha recipe. Hookah smoking is as unique as the people around the pipe. Do not be afraid to try many different ideas for mixing the tobaccos the only limit is your imagination. Have fun and experiment!!!
