The use of hookah has become widely popular. From the Middle East to America via Europe, it is impossible to know the exact number of shisha smokers in the world. Nar guile, Hookah or shisha, the famous water pipe takes different names depending on the location. It is now found everywhere. If, as a beginner, you are wondering how to prepare or make a success of a shisha, you will have the answer by Flowers cannabis below.

Definition of a Shisha

The Shisha is a water pipe of Persian origin used mainly in Iran and the Arab world which allows you to smoke a mixture of tobacco and molasses. The smoke is drawn in through a pipe. Before inhalation, the smoke passes through the vase filled with water which, in turn, refreshes and softens it. The smoke coming down from the tobacco pipe can take on a fruity taste. Apple, mint, grape, cherry, pineapple or mango, a multitude of tastes is accessible to everyone! The fruit aromas with multiple flavors will be able to create the best cocktails.

Duration of a Shisha Session

The duration of a shisha is very variable and depends on many factors. Several elements such as the quality of the coal or the preparation of the fireplace come into play. On average a shisha can last 30-45 minutes using basic materials. It is possible to alternate the position of your coal to consume well and lengthen the time. This contributes in particular to heating your stones or consuming your tobacco if you wish to prolong your pleasure. Do not hesitate to remove the ashes which will be abundant and change the coal once well burned. The average time for a shisha session may require the use of several coals (2 to 4 coals maximum).

Who Smokes Hookah?

Indeed, many questions remain about hookah users. Shisha smokers range from junior to senior categories. Nowadays, the shisha remains an inevitable reference thanks in particular to its presence in tea rooms and the many salons that are opening up all over the world. Attracted by its multitude of flavors and its friendly appearance, most smokers like to gather around a shisha to enjoy the flavors of fragrant tobacco. The shisha gives the opportunity to relax and spend a moment of conviviality. This is why it is essential to take your time during a session. The smoke created by the shisha or the noise of the air bubbles contribute to a fun atmosphere! At home or in a shisha bar, hookah remains above all an impassive, cool and relaxing moment.

How to Make Your Shisha Successful?

Equipment
To facilitate the preparation of your shisha, you will need:

• A complete shisha (vase, pipe column, hearth as well as
their seal, the column)
• Aluminum foil or heating system
• Natural or self-igniting charcoal
• Shisha or Tobacco from Flowers Cannabis...

• REMINDER: We would like to remind you that shisha tobacco is only available for purchase from tobacconists with a sales monopoly. A shop specializing in hookah such as Flowers Cannabis or any other will therefore not offer it. We offer shisha stones that provide the same sensations but with steam. You can get shisha stones offered on our shop with a wide range of flavors (apple, strawberry, mint...). After this step, you can carefully follow the progress of the remaining phases.

Fill the Vase
Fill your vase with 2/3 of water, to make it simple, flood the end of the stem with 2cm of water to have a unique hookah or to opt for the fun side, you can fill your vase with fruit slices slide in a few ice cubes or LED cubes for shisha.
To avoid: Do not fill the vase of the hookah to the end in order to avoid any aspiration of water.
Filling the Fireplace
If you use hookah tobacco, place it in the hearth and cut it if you wish because some users will opt for a finer cut in order to aerate the well-consumed tobacco. Shisha stones are made of a porous mineral coated with flavored glycerin which generates vapor. The operation of shisha stones is similar to that of the electronic cigarette. Also be sure to arrange them well so that they heat properly.
Place the Aluminum
After filling the fireplace, cover it with aluminum foil and make about ten holes using a shisha pick or a hookah whole punch available on El Bahia. Remember to spread the aluminum foil well. We would like to remind you that there are pre-cut aluminum shisha sheets. In addition, the holes made should be small in size and spaced. To avoid the use of aluminum foil and to have several advantages, we also recommend the Aloud Lotus heating system.

Assembling Your Shisha

After completing steps 1 and 2, it's time to set up your hookah. Place the column stem (or the chimney) in the vase containing water and screw everything together. Once the assembly is screwed, place the pipes and finally the hearth. Carefully check the arrangement of the seals at the level of the vase, the pipes and the hearth in order to limit air leaks. If you unfortunately notice that one of your seals is defective or if you are missing one, you have the option of using a paper towel as a temporary solution while waiting to obtain a new seal. Some hookahs do not have a rubber gasket.

Light You’re Charcoal

It's time to light your charcoal, which will heat your steam stones and consume your tobacco. To do this, depending on the type of coal chosen, simply grab it with pliers and place it on a heat source (lighter) or coal lighter. Once the coal is lit, place it on the hearth and wait 1 to 2 minutes, the time to heat your stones or consume your tobacco. You can discover our catalog dedicated to shisha charcoal on Flowerscannabis.ca We offer natural or self-igniting coals. This will make it easier for you to choose the type of coal you want or would be most profitable for you.

To avoid: do not light the coal already placed on the hearth, you risk burning the tobacco and having a bad taste during your shisha session.

Smoke Your Shisha

As soon as your shisha is on, you can start your shisha session and enjoy it perfectly! Tip: Before you start smoking properly, start by pulling gently a few times and then taste! It is also necessary to add ice cubes in the vase in case you want more refreshment. If you unfortunately did not manage to know that practice plays an essential role in mastering the preparation of a shisha. The days and weeks to come will undoubtedly allow you to improve your skills.
