Nargile, also known as hookah or shisha, is a water pipe used for smoking flavored tobacco. Originating in the Middle East, it has gained popularity worldwide, especially in cafes and social settings. The tobacco is often mixed with molasses and fruit flavors, providing a sweet and aromatic experience. The smoke passes through water before being inhaled, which cools and filters it. Nargile is typically enjoyed in groups, fostering social interaction. While it is often perceived as a safer alternative to cigarettes, health experts warn that it can still pose significant health risks due to the inhalation of tobacco smoke.
