Help Me Figure Out What This Was?!


Recommended Posts

So last night at a party I was hangin out with some friends and this guy was smoking this thing that looked like a cigarette holder with this very green tobacco. There was a bowl on the end.

The tobacco came in a little jar with arabic writing all over it. You basically put this thing in the bottle, loosely fill the bowl and you ge ta few hits out of it. (before someone says it, it was NOT NHT)

He said he got it in Dubai when he lived there for a few years.

Anyone know what this was?

ps. I'm countin on you Codename067 biggrin.gif

ya know I was thinking...it could be the arabic equivallent of Shaman tobacco. Best stuff I've had, really potent and clenses the mind and body.



Ya, this stuff was great.. We sat and smoked a few bowls (5 or 6 hits) and it just relaxed me so much.... I gotta ask him what it was. Def gonna get some.

One of my mates had something like this... It was definately tobacco smoked pipe style... He had a tub of green tobacco which he use to put in the bowl and light with a lighter whilst taking a hit... I tried it too heavy for me and harsh on the throat!


It was pretty harsh but I can handle that stuff... doesnt bother me at all. Guess I got some iron lungs, He guaranteed I would cough it all up but I didnt hahha

Come to think of it, its probably a home grown tobacco, or one from somewhere over there, and it wasn't fully dried or at least in the same fashion that most tobaccos are. This would explain the green and the potency.

bump still want to know



I've got a friend that has gotten ahold of what you're talking about from some of his arabic buddies. I think he pronounced it "dokah"? (Doe-kah). Claimed it to be a variety of tobacco and said it was legal.

YES IT IS DOKAH! THANK YOU SO MUCH... here is a breif summary of it.

QUOTE
DOKAH
where to get it?
i believe it comes from the UAE (thats united arab emmarates, for those of you not paying attention), but rarely will you find anyone who has heard of it. look it up on the net, or ask some middle eastern friends. or your dealer.

whats it look like?
It looks like NHT that is drier and more granulated. it looks like a spice out of your mommys spice rack. it smells very similar to green tea.

hows the smoke?
the smoke is very harsh, so if you smoke it, be ready to hurt a little, unless you smoke it out of a standard corncob-style pipe with regular tobacco halfway up the chamber and the dokah on top). it can be smoked out of just about anything. roll it, put it in a NH(havent tried), put it on top of shisha in a hookah, smoke it out of a piece, crunch out the first few drags of a cig and stuff it in the tube, be creative.

what are the effects?
it produces a very strong buzz, almost like that first cigarette of the day, but much stronger, or even like being drunk. if you smoke it drunk, you will feel hammered but not sick. i had a friend complain of a headache from it once, but he was a whiny little bitch. the effects last only about 2 minutes, then youre completely straight to drive or whatever. it also kills nicotine urges from what im told.

how much?
i got 14 grams for 20 bucks. its a good deal.

if find some where to get it please tell i googled it ... got nothing?


I'm not sure if that was the correct spelling, but as far as I know you can't get it in the states. His buddies bring it back from home. Honestly, I don't care for the stuff. (EDIT) The weaker variety reminded me of just a strong cigarette buzz. I'd much rather chill out with a cold brew and a round of mint shisha. Hookah.gif

If its really powerful, it acts similar to NHT which is an insent (a spinning extreme buzz effect). The weaker variety reminded me of just a strong cigarette buzz.

I didnt really get the affect to that extent. I had about 2 bowls worth and it just felt like a crazy nicotine buzz... Gonna talk to the kid about getting me some. I'll see if I can snag some extra to send out to those who want some.

I could not tell what you were talking about, but when you gave the name away I recognized it. Well not much, but I have heard my dads friends bring up the name before, that's pretty much it. It just sounded familiar. Edited by Codename067

I wouldnt smoke this stuff. Sounds like it tastes harsh and isnt worth the trouble. I'll stay with shisha.


It is a bit harsh but that stuff has never bothered me. It tasted great and clouded pretty good too. The buzz from it was fun too.

Haha...the buzz is fun. But be ready for it.
Much stronger buzz with dokah.
