Dokha comes in many blends and flavors. We are producing over 50 blends of dokha. Dokha has three categories, such as: a. Cold dokha – light b. Warm dokha – medium c. Hot dokha – strong How do we make Dokha? Our cultivation is an effort consuming agricultural process, as we don’t use any machinery Dokha seeds are planted into the high quality field that is irrigated with fresh water. Dokha is an annual crop. After harvest, tobacco is stored for drying, by hanging in large piles Following this, dokha has to be cleared of stems and dust, and then cropped in an appropriate manner. Finally, the experts will mix the 3 different types of tobacco to produce one particular blend. WHY to choose DOKHA? It is an organic tobacco that is less health damaging than other tobacco products Few puffs are enough to enjoy a premium product to satisfy and provide a pleasant buzz. The smoking process of dokha is quick and suitable for the current business world It is rather reasonably priced that can save some cash in comparison with other tobacco products It does not stick to fabrics nor does it have the distinct and unpleasant odor. It is trendy to have a nice medwakh and being different of others.

  • The Resurgence of the Tobacco Pipe in the Gulf Region Cother Hajat* UAE University, United Arab Emirates
    : Curre re nt a R C e Hajat, Health Care Current Reviews 2017, 5:1 h v t i l e a w DOI: 10.4172/2375-4273.1000181 e s H Health Care: Current Reviews ISSN: 2375-4273 Commentary Open Access The Resurgence of the Tobacco Pipe in the Gulf Region Cother Hajat* UAE University, United Arab Emirates Abstract Tobacco use remains the single greatest cause of preventable death in the world. Whilst much has been achieved in tobacco control policy, this has been predominantly to tackle the use of cigarettes by adult males whilst tobacco use has changed direction away from cigarettes towards the new forms of tobacco and in women and children. The Gulf Region has witnessed a rapid rise in the use of powdered tobacco, dokha, smoked in small pipes called midwakh. This article discusses the emerging literature to date which warrants concern for the widespread use, health effects and difficulty in regulation of midwakh. The few studies on usage suggest that over a quarter of students in the United Arab Emirates smoke midwakh regularly. There are initial reports of higher nicotine levels and deleterious health effects compared with cigarette use. Most of the regulatory mechanisms in place, such as bans on smoking in public places and the regulation of sales, are not applicable to the sale of dokha. Whilst the WHO Global Monitoring Framework target of a 30% relative reduction in tobacco use by 2025 includes all forms of smoking, the vast majority of the current tools at our disposal, from the scant evidence available, are not fit-for-purpose in tackling non-cigarette tobacco use.
