Who hasn’t been given a shisha pipe after a friend or family member visited the Middle East? The novelty may only be to some as shisha or hookah pipe smoking is common in all countries in the Middle East. My friend’s grandmother from Iran would smoke in her late 90s after dinner, despite convention and new research saying that fruit-flavoured shisha tobacco is as bad or worse than regular tobacco.
In the world of pods and convenience, a company has developed a new kind of shisha, one that uses pre-loaded fruit tobacco and no charcoal is needed. The device is called Ooka and can be bought in the United Arab Emirates along with “Criminally awesome flavors” that it “borders on criminal” advertises the gadget’s website.
In the world of pods and convenience, a company has developed a new kind of shisha, one that uses pre-loaded fruit tobacco and no charcoal is needed. Each pod delivers one session that can last up to 70 minutes depending on the intensity of the session.
You can pause the session for up to 10 minutes.
Lemon with mint, grape with mint, lemon, pear, candy, guava, lime –- are some of the flavor options.

The only criminal smoking we have heard of in the UAE is cannabis smoking. Be careful that medical marijuana is not even in your bloodstream if you are planning a trip to Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
If you are planning on trying hookah or shisha for the first time –> Don’t read this. The BBC’s Claire Hammond reported that since people end up smoking a shisha pipe for up to an hour, they end up taking 100 to 200 times more puffs than they would on a single cigarette.
The Ooka can be bought online for about $550 USD for the whole kit. Personal mouthpieces can be bought separate.
It is designed and developed in the UAE by a company called Air Global who hired Paul Dawson, a product engineer from Dyson.
