The Art of Mixing Shisha/Hookah Tobacco

Why mix shisha flavors in the first place?

A large part of the hookah experience is trying new shisha flavors. With new flavors coming out daily, the options are endless. Sometimes the classic flavors and the pre-made mixes can get old pretty fast. You like to be creative. You mix your own drinks, cook your own recipes and love the freedom of discovering something all your own. Good news, hookah allows you to do just that! Combine any flavors you can imagine to build your own concoctions to share with friends. Not just 2, but even 3, 4 or 5 flavors if you’re really feeling frisky. 

What are some rules/tips for mixing shisha?

In the world of shisha mixology, it is important to understand different types of shisha tobacco from different brands. If you are new, we suggest you pick shishas from the same brand, as they are likely to burn consistently. Over time, as you get more confident, you can start experimenting with shishas from different brands in the same categories. For instance, you can mix blonde shisha with washed tobacco because they complement each other seamlessly. However, you need more expertise to start blending dark leaf shishas. Nevertheless, many brands mix wonderfully because of their similar packing styles. Following are certain golden rules of shisha mixing for achieving flavor balance
