Here is where I put down my proverbial pen and shut my big mouth. If it has been the statement “A picture is worth a thousand¬† words”, than a video is worth easilt a million pictures, no Sachbi?

I don’t have to worry about¬† letting out the secret of my resources, obviously “YouTube.com” is the place to find good videos on any subject.

When you want to see DIY hookah videos or tips the only problem is weeding out the bad videos from the good. You would have to type in “hookah,shisha,tobacco, hookah tips,hookah recipies” etc.¬† If you write in the search box either hookah or shisha you shouldget them all.

But I would like to show a few of the videos from my very favourite hookah forum, with¬† almost 1800 members and growing rapidly. Of course THE hookah forum I refer to is

“Hookah Domain” Hookah Forum

http://www.hookahdomain.com/

I’ll tell you why I prefer Hookah Domain forum compared to the “Top Selling Brand” of hookah forums. I was a member there, and its well run, policed a bit too tightly and worse, no one’s opinion is respected. The general flow sounds like 25 wine con-es-sewers sitting in one room and showing off their expertise. Hookah Domain¬† is very friendly, respect is a given thing that so far no one has been told to uphold. Its more laid back and generous with beginners feeling free to ask questions and not feeling like a demi-god may stoop to answer if they are lucky. Nuff said,

Here are a few videos which I am taking off You tube from Hookah Domain¬† members.

Special Shisha review

¬†

Some people like Nakhla brand shisha from Egypt, some consider it ‚Äúdry‚Äù shisha and not worth the effort to try.

Its true that Nakhla has a low level of¬† glycerin in the¬† shisha mix, but in experimenting a while back, I took some of my favourite flavours and added a bit more glycerin.It normally has around 24%. In adding a teaspon of glycerin to about 25-30 grams to Nakhla I found the taste diminished every time. I guess they have the right mix ratio for their product.

In case you never had these new, special Nakhla exotic tastes, link here to see

Chocomint,Earl Grey ,cinnamon,tropicana,cardamon, and margurita flavours.

The chocomint is wonderful can‚Äôt say enough good about it.

Earl Grey (tea) flavour? Well honestly I love Earl Grey Tea¬† my favourite tea and I drink tea all day, but as a shisha, I found it¬† to taste too much like tea leaves, no way.

I found this cinnamon much better than others I‚Äôve had, like Al-Sultan cinnamon. Nakhla makes it much better.

Tropicana and Margurita are quite exotic and fine to smoke.

Cardammon (hel) Arabic spice for Turkish Coffee was a good idea on their part no one else makes that, but its way too strong a taste. Maybe mixing it with mint, or coffee would be wise.
