Hookah Pipes

The hookah pipe is a water pipe that originated in India and Persia over 500 years ago. Hookah is also known by other names such as; hubble-bubble, narghile, shisha and goza. Although hookah pipes vary in size and shape, most have three pieces; a bowl, pipe and hose. Hookah pipes are often used in group settings, and the same mouthpiece may be shared among users. Specially formulated flavored tobacco is typically used in hookah pipes. Hookah pipe smoking is not safer than cigarette smoking. Hookah pipe smokers may inhale as much smoke during one session as a cigarette smoker would inhale from 100 or more cigarettes.
