Dokha

An iranian mixture of tobacco, herbs, bark and spices. Smoked through a midwakh-small pipe. Cheap and gives u a buzz, hence the name, which means stoned in arabic (adookh)

It is sold almost any mosque shop in the UAE. Yet the most famous are Rabsha, Asghar Aziz and Mirdif Star, all having different tastes depending on how they are treated.

It comes in many strengths. Cold being the mildest and hot being the harshest.

One bowl of Dokha is thought to contain 100 mg compared to a cigarettes 700 mg.

It is smoked by most of the youths and even adults of the UAE.

The buzz you get is due to the amount of nicotine in it. It contains more than a cigarette.

Midwakhs come in various styles and prices also. Starting at 10 dhs and going up to well over 1000 dependant on their material usually.
Metal pipes tend to be easier as they don't need cleaning. Glass pipes usually break when u tap the dokha out.
Wooden pipes-most common and cheapest.
Plastic - Magic is a common plastic pipe. comes in many colours.
Midwakhs even come in Gold and Design brands such as Louis Vuitton.
