Afzal Shisha Tobacco 50g Box

Afzal tobacco is one of the more well known brands of tobacco in the Middle East. This high-grade tobacco has a consistent flavor and is famous for its smooth smoke and affordable price. Typically a 50 gram box of shisha will last for 3 to 5 hookah bowls depending on how you load the bowl.

Flavors: 

• Dubai Mint
• Pan Raas
• Lychee

How to Use:

1. Lightly sprinkle the shisha into the Hookah bowl so that they are loose enough for air to pass through. The shisha molasses should be filled to the rim of the bowl, but no higher. Pat it down a little so it is slightly more desnely packed. Do not pack it down too densely, or you will restrict airflow through the bowl. 
2. If you are using a metal screen, place it on top of the bowl. If you are using aluminum foil, wrap it over the head so that it fits snugly. Make evenly spaced holes through the foil to allow air to pass through.
3. Place the bowl on top of the shisha stem. You might need to use a rubber seal to ensure the connection is airtight.
4. Light your coals and wait for them to become red hot before spreading them evenly on the foil.
5. Take a few breaths on the hose to get the air flowing. Give it a minute or two before the hookah is smoking properly.

Helpful Tips: 

• Cleaning your shisha after every smoking session will avoid the build up of residues that will eventually clog the system.
• When perforating the foil on your shisha bowl, make small holes to avoid burning the molasses. Use a toothpick, a pen or a fork when you punch holes into the aluminum foil. The bigger the clay bowl, the more holes you should have.
• Do not use too much coal and the smaller the pieces the better. Too much or too big will burn the molasses really quickly and give a burnt aftertaste when you are smoking.
• Once you have packed your bowl, cover it with aluminum foil (without holes), flip the bowl upside down and let it sit for a few minutes. This will make sure the molasses at the top layer are wetter before you burn which will enhance the flavor.
