I can tell you that there's nothing that even comes close to a real hookah. These things are traditional and have been around for hundreds of years. I usually mix some mint and apple or jasmine flavour tobacco for its bowl. The tobacco has 0% tar and .05% nicotine. This tobacco is brewed with real fruits btw. :-).
: Were you jumping up and down when you took the last 2 pics..lol Dig the hookah... I heard those have really nice flavor and cool too. I smoke a pipe that was designed by an aero engineer and 'printed out by a aluminum extrusion process... but I always wanted to try a hookah.
