Know The Hookah Better...




Better known as a Middle Eastern culture, the Hookah has gained immense popularity in India as well. The Hookah is the apex of the smoking pleasure. What was once a phenomenon that was slowly fading away into oblivion has today become a style statement for most urban youngsters. Today, the Hookah is so highly regarded, that smoking it is actually considered a form of art. A growing popular trend, Hookah adds pleasure to your lives in order to help free your minds, helps surround you with luxury, allows you to spend good times with friends, and integrates an extraordinary cultural element into your life. With the increasing acceptance of this concept, let us know in depth about what exactly Hookah is and how it came into existence.

The story behind the Hookah is fascinating. Popular in the early centuries by names like Shisha, Water Pipe, and Narghile, the Hookah actually started out as a humble coconut shell. It eventually made it to the daily servings among coffee shops in Turkey during the 17th century.

The structure of a Hookah is interesting to note. A Hookah can be disassembled into various parts - the base that holds the water, the stem, the hoses, the bowl, the coal tray and the various rubber grommets which join and seal the different parts. The tobacco for Hookahs is prepared in a specific way. It is first soaked in fruit peels and then placed in the bowl which is at the top of the pipe structure. An aluminum foil covers the bowl. Then, small charcoal pieces are placed on the foil, which is punctured using a pin for gently heating the tobacco. Smooth, sweet-smelling vapor is filtered through the base containing water, when smoked using the hose.

The tobacco made available for hookahs comes in variety of flavors – one can choose from amongst flavours like apple, cherry, apricot, watermelon, rose, jasmine, vanilla, honey, and licorice, with more exotic blends beyond that, such as lemon-cola, cappuccino and apple-mint.
