Shisha

A shisha is a water pipe. It originally comes from the Arab region and has been used there for a very long time. In the meantime, however, it has spread all over the world and has countless fans thanks to its great and diverse tastes. The head of the shisha is filled with tobacco. This was previously filled with a wide variety of, mostly fruity, flavors. Now the user pulls on the mouthpiece, whereby the smoke is drawn through the shisha and the bowl, which is filled with water. This not only filters the smoke, but also cools it down. The aromas contained in the tobacco and the cooling by the water create a thick, tasty vapor.

In order for you to be able to use your water pipe properly and for it to taste good, you need a few things:

• The shisha
Of course you need a shisha first. These are available in different sizes and models, but the basic design is always the same. Most hookahs consist of several parts, such as the head piece or the bowl. When buying a new shisha, a hose is usually already included. If you want to smoke with another person on the same pipe, you need another one. If you only have one hose and several people smoke on this one, we recommend the use of mouthpieces such as B. the Al Mani hygiene mouthpieces. In this way a certain basic hygiene can be maintained.

• Shisha tobacco
The shisha tobacco is filled into the top of the head of the water pipe. It is available in countless different flavors and from many different manufacturers. At Hanfpost.ch you have a large selection of Hookah tobacco with a wide variety of flavors. Of cotton candy, about Lemon chill to mango, you will find everything your heart desires with us.

• Shisha coal
To get your hookah to steam, you have to bring it with you Hookah charcoal first really heat up. You cannot use ordinary charcoal for this, because it emits toxic substances when burned. That's why there are special shisha charcoals. To bring them up to temperature, a charcoal lighter is required, which you can find in the area Accessories find. With self-igniting Shisha charcoal, you don't need a charcoal lighter. You just have to light it, the embers will spread in a short time. Important: Always let the self-igniting charcoal glow completely, otherwise this will have a negative effect on the taste. Because during the ignition process, fire accelerators burn, which could then be inhaled.

Have you decided to buy a shisha or have you already bought one? Then you should know that the shisha should be cleaned properly after each use. Otherwise bacteria can quickly accumulate everywhere due to the moisture. You should therefore rinse all parts thoroughly with water. There are extra long brushes for the smoke column. Since the shisha hoses often have a wire spiral, you should not wash it out. Better to blow it through and hang it up to dry.
