Some people call it different things (tobacco, tobacco paste, tobacco, etc.) There are so many names! But they all refer to the same thing! Shop owners prefer to call it tobacco.
So what are its main ingredients? It's primarily a pure, natural tobacco blended with local tobacco and something like honey. That's why it's moist!
How do you judge the quality of shisha tobacco?
I believe there are three key factors to consider when judging a good shisha tobacco: 1. Taste (everyone's taste is different); 2. Sustainability (how long the puff lasts); 3. Volume (primarily a function of the smoke).
How do you choose Arabic shisha tobacco?
Shisha tobacco comes from many countries and brands: the United States, Russia, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Germany, Dubai, India, and many more.
There are many brands: AL FAKHER, Mazaya, Vega, 7night, ADALYA, Aqua Mentha, Fumari, STARBUZZ, and so on. Each brand also offers a wide variety of flavors, such as mint, peach, lemon, and more! But remember, everything is personal, so when choosing a flavor, try to base it on your favorite fruits! As for choosing tobacco brands, you need to experiment with each one, as some countries have lighter tobacco, some have a stronger flavor, and some have a longer-lasting effect, etc. Brands vary from country to country!
The color of tobacco can sometimes vary from brand to brand! There are red, yellow, black, and green (red and yellow are the most common). Don't be alarmed! (Red and green are added pigments, while yellow is the natural color of the tobacco, generally found in European, American, and German brands. Local laws require only natural tobacco colors. Black is Russian tobacco, which is often fermented from yellow tobacco.) After reading this, you'll understand why there are cheap and expensive tobacco brands. It all comes down to the different raw materials and craftsmanship!
But the most important thing is to smoke genuine hookah tobacco. Don't smoke imitation or expired tobacco! Although imitation or expired tobacco is cheap, it will damage your health and give you a "fake hookah" experience that is not worth the cost!
