How To Smoke Al Fakher Shisha Tobacco
Al Fakher Hookah Tobacco is one of the easiest brands of shisha to prepare and is typically very forgiving. It can be packed in any hookah bowl, however we recommend using a phunnel style hookah bowl (such as the Gambit bowl) to achieve optimal flavor, though a standard Egyptian hookah bowl will work great as well.
Using your fingers or a small shisha fork, sprinkle the tobacco loosely into the bowl evenly filling it to the inner bowl lip while making sure the shisha itself remains "fluffy" and light.
Al Fakher thrives using this "fluff pack" method as proper airflow through the shisha is needed for it to smoke evenly.
Once packed, put your foil or heat management device (it works great with either!) in place.
Depending on the size of your bowl, we typically recommend utilizing 1-2 pieces of quick light charcoal or 2-3 pieces of natural hookah charcoal (adjusting as you find necessary) to achieve the optimal level of heat for Al Fakher.
