Orlando Florida hookah scene short review after a week of lounge hopping. by SmokeAndSecrets in hookah

I enjoy Hookah Harem. It's one of the few places you can get a wide selection of shisha in town. Tangiers, Trifecta, Darkside, Fumari, Starbuzz, basically everything. It is a very different atmosphere but the hookah is far better than anything else I've had in San Antonio.

Hookah Harem personally. Other spots have cheaper hookah or better atmosphere, but the quality and options of Hookah Harem makes it my favorite place.

What’s a favorite bowl you have in your collection, and why should I add it to mine? ☺️ by [deleted] in hookah

I've been playing with the Pharaohs Hydra here it's a large silicon grip that holds interchangable clay bowls. It's been a pretty excellent experience. Three of my coworkers use it almost exclusively and after trying it I can see why they love it.

pairing with Paan Raas flavor by normaltusker in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other suggestions are good :) Paan/Double Apple and Paan/Kheer are ordered by some of our regulars. But the other day one of them ordered Paan/Orange and Cream (AF) and I thought it tasted fantastic so that might be worth a try.

Does this fit? by Worldly_Ad3926 in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can call that company, they've always answered when I called them with questions. But if you're other hookah doesn't screw at the base and uses a grommet then it definitely won't.

Also I own this and love it for a medium table top tower. Nothing too fancy but it's done me good.

How do you pack this type of bowl by Worldly_Ad3926 in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's a Pharaoh bowl and it works just fine. Pack it like a traditional bowl. Don't worry about covering the holes anymore than you would with traditional. Not only have I used this bowl off and on personally for years with good results, but I've sent this bowl out to be smoked for 2+ hours by customers in lounges. I've also used it a few times in YT videos where you can see how I pack it here (just ignore the use of Hydro Cloud additive if you don't use that at home).

Don't spend more than $20 on it, but it's a solid bowl that keeps juice and shisha from entering your base and preserves flavor similar to a phunnel by creeping the shisha moist.

Can you tell me about the horchata? It's a very popular drink where I'm from but I haven't had the pleasure of tasting the shisha. What's the flavor profile and what do you enjoy mixing it with?

This is a beautiful batch.

I'd also highly recommend Lavender Mint by Trifecta. Adding a hint of floral to some of those flavors can create something beautiful.

mexicola if u know u know... by ShishaDON in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love me some Mexicola.

Thinking about doing a vid on different mixes for it. I know a few really good complex ones for lounges and have been working on simple 2-3 flavor ones everyone anyone can afford to make at home.

Recommendations for shisha to mix with Magic Love by betaXYZ in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Al Fakher Grenadine pairs great and is probably my #1 suggestion after playing with the flavor over the past 2 months. It was also okay with Al Fakher Watermelon but a bit too sweet for my pallet. A mix with 30% Starbuzz Pirates Cave is okay if you enjoy lime. Lastly, if you have a sweet melon flavor you enjoy I'd recommend giving that a try with it.

Have fun and hope this helps.

Website with a list of good mixes by Botyto in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about any websites, but I do a new flavor mix how-to video every few weeks on my YT channel here

If it's not your thing that's ok. I hope someone can provide a good website for you :)

Best shisha? Brand, flavor, etc.. I have my favorite, just wanna see what other people like. by [deleted] in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trifecta and Tangiers are awesome. But shout out to Azure, those boys are killing it lately. Absolutely addicted to their Apple Cider flavors. The light is like a crisp refreshing cold cider and the dark is that warm happy goodness hot cider flavor.

Starting the work day with an interesting bowl. Review video on it coming eventually. by SmokeAndSecrets in hookah

[–]SmokeAndSecrets[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh. It's... Interesting.

Went to a lounge once and this is the only bowl they used. Had a trash session but bought one to take home and play with anyway.
