I cannot buy shisha with tobacco in over the internet.

Relaxing with some nicely flavoured shisha is a vice of mine

However I can only buy tobacco free shisha online, while you can get some interesting flavours it just doesn't roast/burn as well as 'real' shisha, also the smoke is a lot weaker.

    A sugary syrupy tobacco mixture that goes in a hookah.

    'hookah is a single or multi-stemmed (often glass-based) instrument for smoking in which the smoke is cooled by water. The tobacco smoked is referred to as shisha (sheesha) in the United Kingdom. and the US.'

    Shisha is the tobacco syrup mixture:

    And you can't buy tobacco separately and mix it?

    With the non tobacco stuff?

    Nope as the packaged tobacco is just to dry to roast.

    It needs to have been in the mixture for ages so it isn't dry enough to burn, just to roast really.

    What exactly is stopping you from buying shisha with tobacco?  There are sites that sell it. Is importing tobacco banned in your country?

    I dunno every UK website for shisha only sells tobacco free, and a lot of non UK sites never had delivery to UK options.

    It is legal to import it but there are restrictions.
    Looking at the HM Revenue and Customs website it is legal to import but it has added cost and possibly:

    In addition, any tobacco products must be within the following allowances:

    • 50 cigarettes; or
    • 25 cigarillos (cigars with a maximum weight of 3 gms); or
    • 10 cigars; or
    • 50 gms of tobacco or a proportional assortment of the different products.



    However it appears Scrye's link does ship to the UK (Cheers Scrye :D) so I'm going to look at how much additional tax I'd need to pay to import a 50gm pack of shisha.

    Any time, brother.

    ^^ That's actually the first site that comes up when searching for tobacco shisha on google.com. It's completely absent on google.co.uk.

    Explains why I've never seen it.
    I've also fired an email of at HMRC asking them to clarify extra taxes and stuff.

    So hopefully, delicious shisha flavours here I come.
