Do you love enjoying a hookah session but want to avoid harmful and addictive substances? Then you should definitely try Smoke Island's tobacco substitute. Smoke Island is made from cellulose but smokes very similarly to regular hookah tobacco. The best part is, the cellulose doesn't burn at all—only the molasses evaporates. This means no harmful combustion substances are created, and this is reflected in the flavor as well.
Smoke Island is a tobacco substitute made from cellulose. Sounds unusual, but that's exactly what it is. Cellulose consists of boiled plant fibers, which can also be used to produce paper. Depending on the plant it comes from, the fibers vary in length and have slightly different properties.What all cellulose types share is their highly absorbent nature when dried, making them excellent at soaking up liquids. This is a characteristic you might know from various types of paper, such as kitchen towels, tissues, or even newspapers and printer paper. Similarly, tobacco leaves are largely composed of cellulose, which is why they can soak up and release molasses, making them ideal for hookah use.When heated, cellulose releases the liquid it has absorbed, making it an ideal carrier material for molasses, flavors, glycerin, and liquid sweeteners. Essentially, cellulose functions in a similar way to tobacco, but it can bind more liquid. Its fine fibers become mushy when combined with liquid, so it’s not as "fluffy" as tobacco. Cellulose has almost no inherent flavor, making the aromas cleaner, and its higher absorbency contributes to denser "smoke" compared to regular tobacco.Moreover, many harmful substances found in tobacco are simply not present in cellulose. As far as we know, smoking cellulose is less harmful than consuming tobacco products. Apart from the flavor of burning coals and the associated carbon monoxide, using cellulose is almost comparable to vaping, with smoke production often being even more intense than with regular tobacco.
Smoke Island provides a solid selection of different flavors. Some of the options available include:
But there's an even larger selection of flavors from this manufacturer.
According to sales data, Ice Lemon (a sweet lemon with a hint of coolness), Ice Grape (grape and mint), and Ice Gum (bubblegum & mint) are very popular among our customers.
Packing a bowl with Smoke Island isn’t much different from other setups. The main thing to watch out for is heat, as Smoke Island’s tobacco substitute doesn’t tolerate as much heat as traditional tobaccos. Using an ONMO heat management device (especially the black ONMO) with a slight gap should work perfectly. If the tobacco starts to feel harsh, simply reduce the heat.
No, since Smoke Island is not tobacco and only contains cellulose, flavors, and glycerin, the product does not contain nicotine.
Yes, the smoke is very dense, but you can regulate it by adjusting the heat. Less heat means less smoke.
Smoke Island doesn’t contain tobacco, so it lacks the earthy and spicy notes typical of tobacco. If you enjoy tobacco flavor, you might miss it. If that’s not your thing, you might actually prefer Smoke Island over traditional tobacco.
No, Smoke Island contains no nicotine, which is the substance responsible for addiction. So the answer is no.
Use whatever you have, but make sure not to apply too much heat so the cellulose doesn’t burn.
