The hubbly bubbly has been reinvented for modern partygoers.

Cocktail shisha company Chimera offers a modern range of shishas that use of herbal molasses (tea leaves soaked in syrup) to reduce the negative effects of conventional tobacco.

This reinvention of the shisha uses champagne, spirits and fruit and has taken off at luxury hotels around the world such as the W Hotel in Bali and the Ritz Carlton in Moscow.

Chimera’s shishas allow smoke to be passed through water in order to be ‘purified’. This pleasant, non-irritating smoke has a different chemical composition to that of cigarette smoke and can have fruit or alcohol added to it for different flavour effects.

A heady variety of essences and tastes can be experienced in this dense, fl avourful smoke. Unique cocktail recipes are available or can be exclusively prepared.
