I love traditional leather hoses, but the biggest complaint I hear is that they can't be washed and that is the reason that the modern washable hoses are so popular. Happily, there is a way to clean out a traditional hose without using water. Beat the hell out of it. That may sound a bit odd, but

Uh Oh. You've carefully packed your bowl, set up your hookah and sat down for a relaxing session, but your first draw greet you with a mouthful of dirt and ash. This is a bad thing. Your friend might tell you that it's ash from the coal getting into your hose and that it's nothing to worry

After my latest blog post touting the merits of silicone in hookah accessories, I figured I should give you a look at a new product that I have been enjoying. This is the Palace Glass Hookah Hose. I was gifted one of these hoses to try out by Smoking-Hookah.com and I think it's worth a review. I
