Why more people are choosing Dokha

Why are more and more people choosing Dokha? Dokha has been popular in the Middle East for a long time, but its popularity and fame has spread far and wide – these days, more and more people are choosing Dokha to meet their tobacco needs. People who’ve tried it on holiday have brought their fondness for Dokha back home, and we at London Dokha are committed to exporting Dokha to anywhere there’s a taste for it. But what is it about Dokha that’s got increasing numbers of people switching away from other tobacco?

Here’s what we think:


Pure and natural. Dokha is the pure, natural, original Arabic tobacco, and London Dokha brings it to you direct from the source. Dokha is naturally dried by the hot desert winds, before being finely ground in a time-honoured tradition which preserves the tobacco’s organic content. The end result is a strong, fresh, firm flavour which is inescapably Dokha, and can’t be replicated anywhere else.


Less processing. The process by which Dokha is dried and ground is entirely organic, and all London Dokha tobacco is free from chemical preservatives. The traditional curing method means that the tobacco retains its natural green colouration, while having the happy side effect of cutting down on unpleasant lingering tobacco smells.


Original blends. Once dried and ground, Dokha is carefully blended with a variety of herbs and spices to produce a spectrum of enticing blends. Dokha blends are typically sorted between light, medium and hot, with the warmer blends providing a hotter smoke and a more intense buzz.


Dokha buzz. Part of the pleasure of smoking Dokha is the enjoyable warm buzz that comes when you exhale; a nicotine buzz that’s intensified by Dokha’s natural strength and the traditional methods used in its production. Light Dokha typically produces a pleasing light buzz upon exhaling, with medium and hot blends providing a heavier smoke and an accompanying heavy buzz.


Save your money, save your time. Dokha is stronger by weight than most comparable tobaccos, meaning less tobacco needs to be smoked in order to achieve the same satisfaction. As a result, Dokha provides a more efficient smoke than cigarettes or Western pipes, taking less time and being a more economical choice for seasoned smokers.


Tradition. When you smoke Dokha, you can experience the intense satisfaction and unique flavour that first made it a hit in its Middle Eastern countries of origin. The tradition of Dokha isn’t only seen in the methods of its production: medwakhs, or Dokha pipes, are the most effective and authentic way to smoke Dokha, and the joy of simply owning one of these handcrafted pieces is a testament to the pleasure of Dokha.
Pure and natural, traditionally and organically grown and processed, Dokha is an antidote to the mass-produced and additive-laden products most smokers are familiar with. At London Dokha we believe the quality of our product speaks for itself, and the increasing numbers of people making the switch suggest we can’t be too far off the mark.
