Love is in the air and so is the sweet scent of fine tobacco. Hookah has been a part of romance for as long as hookah has been popular and that holds true to modern day. The act of sharing a hookah with someone you “like” is a moment of intimacy, so it makes sense that hookah gear sees an increase in sales around Valentine ’s Day when many hopeful lovers are searching for those smoky moments of tranquil and loving connection. To that end I have compiled a list of the best gifts you can buy for that special hookah lover in your life.
Gift cards
I know it seems like a cop out but a gift card is often your best option when it comes to making sure that special hookah smoker gets what they want. If you don’t know the exact tastes of the person you’re buying for then this takes the pressure off and ensures a smile. It may seem a bit impersonal but in lieu of something specific it’s better than a complete shot in the dark.
Sampler packs
I love trying new flavors and there is something special about experiencing a new tobacco for the first time with someone you love. My fiance and I try a new flavor almost every week and share our thoughts while discussing what we like and dislike about each one. No TV. No friends. Just us and our shared experience, so a sampler shisha pack would be an awesome gift.
Bouquet of Floral Flavors
Flower are a classic gift for your significant other even if they may feel a bit overdone. Hookah offers you a slightly more creative option; a bouquet of florals. Floral flavors are not for everyone but those who love them will be ecstatic to see the best and brightest brought together into one beautiful basket. AF Golden Rose, Nakhla El Basha Rose, Tangiers Blue Flower, Tangiers Royal Flower, Nakhla Jasmine; there are many different and wonderful florals to mix and match into something really special.
Kaloud Lotus
Taking the hookah world by storm, the Kaloud Lotus has earned its place and the hottest hookah accessory on the market because people love the “set it and forget it” quality it lends to the session. If you’re looking to spend some quality time with your love one without constantly adjusting coals or fiddling with the windcover then this is the gift to get. Don’t let your hookah be a third wheel.
Nammor Pink
If you’re buying for someone that loves pink you’ll find the hookah industry to be severely lacking in that particular tint. One accessory that comes in pink and I believe to be of high enough quality to recommend is the Nammor hose. This washable hookah hose was the first of its kind to reach the US market and it continues to be one of the best. Don’t love pink? I still suggest a Nammor as a potential gift because it’s always a good idea to have one or two extra washable hoses on hand to rotate out and keep every session as fresh as the first date.
Custom Lulava Hose with extender
Speaking of hoses of many colors, the Lulava hose is a new product that I think you’ll love. The milled aluminum end pieces of this fully washable hose come in a multitude of colors and the extender allows you to mix and match for that perfect combination. If you know your favorite person’s favorite color then get them the perfect hose to suite their tastes. I went for silver and blue but there are over 300 different combinations for you to choose from. Keep things interesting with a little something new.
A Kilo of Their Favorite Flavor
This is something that any seasoned hookah smoker will love. If you can figure out that most beloved of flavors and order a full kilo they’ll be looking at a minimum of 30 hours of smoking bliss that will always remind them of you.
Fantasia Sexy Flavors
If you’re looking for a gift that could raise an eyebrow among other things then you may want to look at the brand Fantasia. They have a whole bunch of flavors with names that are both silly and sexy to send that not so subtle hint with a little humor to get the giggles flowing. Menage, 4Play and Cupid’s Arrow are fine, but imagine the look when you tell your love that you brought some Dirty Blond over for you to enjoy together.
Blush by Social Smoke
While many other flavors with love themed names tend to just add a little cinnamon and call it a day Social Smoke Blush is something truly different. It has slightly floral notes with a profile that reminds me of classic, pink bubblegum. It’s tasty and I think it gets overlooked but deserves a little extra attention on such a blushing day.
A Mouthpiece from Crown Hookahs
A gift stands out a bit more when it is unique. There is very little in the world of hookah that is more unique than a designer hookah mouthpiece from Crown Hookahs. Never to be recreated again, each one is made by a master artisan and with the absolute best materials. If you really want to make an impression you can buy one of their special edition pieces, which will cost you a large chunk of change but it will be unlike anything else you’ve ever seen. Besides, who can put a price on love?
