Several testaments were examined by historians, yet the true origin of hookah stays unclear. Sidelining this argument, hookah has now become a cultural mainstay that swayed every generation with its glamorous appeal.
Unspecific to the origin, the culture of waterpipe started with a handmade flask made of wood or clay. Even coconut shell was carved into the base and people used cane or bamboo stems for hosepipe. People kept experimenting with hashish, opium, and different herbs or roots to get high.
To produce smoke, they used wood charcoals, generally oak to smolder the contents. Though rugged in design, these primitive water pipes led to the stepping stone for modern hookah art. But the tobacco-inspired hookah really kicked off during the medieval era when Persians and Europeans used it as a medium of trade. The best example could be observed when European preachers Jesuits visited India for evangelization and introduced tobacco.
Their presentation of tobacco inspired early Mughals to smoke them with hookah, cigars, and bede Indian cigarettes. Hookah started to receive workmanship around the 16th century where artisans started to use metals, ceramics, and even glass bases.
Moreover, to add to their aesthetic appeal Mughals used semi-precious stones such as jade and nephrite jade. With the advent of European colonization, hookah not only gained popularity in India but also spread out to the eastern Mediterranean region including Persia and Turkey. On an alternate theory, waterpipe culture is said to have originated in 15th century Persia during the Safavid era. While Persia took the hookah towards global recognition, Turkey contributed with its traditional shapes and proportions and gave it a characteristic design.
No matter what theories say, hookah has always succeeded in creating a social status for ages. Once restricted to aristocrats or patriarchal societies, hookah smoking today is enjoyed by all young and old.
Keeping the coal stagnant throughout the session, you will end up receiving tasteless notes. To get the full flavor of your shisha mix, keep the tongs nearby, and move around the coal every 10 minutes.
Avoid getting burnt flavors at the expense of using more coal for a better smoke. The well-packed foil helps tobacco to get ideal heat from coal and avoid delivering burning flavor.
Take a toothpick and go for several small holes instead of bigger ones. This would help in better aeration and uniform distribution of heat. You can try some poking patterns to get the best results. The deeper your bowl, the better you could pack your shisha. This creates a space between shisha and foil that captures gentle heat. This heat is ideal for baking the tobacco mix without hampering the flavor. You may prefer to use a heat management system such as Kaloud Lotus. If you have a smaller bowl, always leave some space.
Never press your tobacco densely into the bowl. Always sprinkle shisha mix using your fingers which helps better penetration of heat and even flavor. After placing coals, wait for about minutes to receive peak shisha flavor.
Store the remaining shisha mix in Tupperware and keep them refrigerated until the next session. Spend some good time to keep your hookah clean and stale-free.
Glass hookahs are easy to clean with warm water. Metallic hookahs, however, need to be washed with soapy water to wash off the flavors completely.
Use a long brush to clean deeper into the stem or shaft. Even after washing, the hosepipe may retain an unpleasant flavor. Leave your hosepipe hanging and let the water run out. Always stay hygienic when it comes to base liquid. The smoking experience is the best when you change your base water daily. Though water can be used for days, never repeat the same with fruit juices such as orange, lemon, etc. Sometimes while taking a draw, bubbles so formed may contain tiny shisha residue that gets stuck inside the pipe.
Even though you use a new hookah, an unwashed clay bowl can spoil your session. First, it is important to understand how the hookah will be utilized most frequently.
Whether it will be multiple people smoking at all times, or if occasionally one person will want to use it by themselves. This is an important thing to know because it determines the number of hoses you should get.
If two people will always be using it together a two hosed hookah might be beneficial. However, if one person will use it more frequently than the other, or intends to use it alone frequently, one hose would be preferred. This will narrow the options quite a bit and allow for an easier decision. Once you have decided how many hoses you want your hookah to have, you must decide on a size. This is a decision based solely on preference, and the choice should be based on the draw the user desires.
A smaller hookah in the mid-size range will provide the user with a slightly quicker, looser, airier draw. A taller hookah will be more stern, however, the smoke has more time to settle and can be smoother. It is also important for a hookah buyer to decide the size of the pipe and how much space will be devoted to the hookah.
Next, decide upon the type of hookah bowl needed for consuming your shisha. Most hookahs come with a standard Egyptian-style bowl. This will basically be a small ceramic dish with several holes in the bottom. This allows for the shisha to be packed in on top of the holes and smoke to travel downward into the hookah. The next type of common hookah bowl is called the funnel bowl. This type of bowl has one large central hole, with a wall around it and a moat where the shisha is packed.
This allows for slightly more unobstructed airflow than the Egyptian-style and is typically considered an upgrade. There are other, less-common options, such as the Syrian bowl, which is quite similar to the Egyptian bowl, but we will only discuss the most common options.
It is also important to examine the types of shisha you will be using as well as the coals.
