In his annual budget speech on Wednesday, Minister of Finance Tito Mboweni said, in line with Department of Health policy, his government will start taxing heated tobacco products such as hookah or “hubbly bubbly”.

Saturday inside the Hubbly Bubbly hookah establishment in the 5400 block of Georgia Avenue NW, Sternbeck said.

While small businesses like Mr. Unger’s Hubbly Bubbly love the cool factor, corporations say the new designs are decades ahead of their predecessors in fuel economy and are more easily customized for delivering packages, people or cargo.

But following Russia’s June 1 ban on tobacco smoking in public places, Vasilchuk’s Chaikona No 1 outlets no longer offer tobacco-based versions of the devices, also known as shisha, narghile, calean, or hubbly bubbly.

It is broad and inviting at first, but toward the finish it is rough, and hubbly, and painful to travel.
