Industria Del Tabaco Ligero Sagrado
The history of dokha begins with traditional Native American to***co. These ultra-intense strains of wild North American to***co were introduced to the old world by the European travelers and explorers. This to***co advanced toward North Africa and spread east to Egypt, the Levant, and at last to down to the Arabian Peninsula. These one of a kind strains eventually reached places like Al-Buraimi in Oman and the Hatta Valley in present day United Arab Emirates. To***co was introduced to the Middle East in the form of a tall water pipe called a ho**ah or “nargile” in Arabic and Turkish. Due to the cost and maintenance of ho**ah smoking, to***co was typically reserved for the elite of the time. Dokha was later created as an inexpensive and simple method of smoking for every class to enjoy. The first record of dokha in history goes back to the late 1500’s in the mountains of northern Iran where it was used recreationally and medicinally by the local population. During the 1800’s dokha turned into a mainstream trade in the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding regions. Farmers would cultivate and sell their product to British mariners and officers whom occupied the region during that era. With the advent of the cigarette at the turn of the 20th century, dokha took the backseat as the to***co form of choice. It wasn’t until the 1980’s that dokha and the culture around it saw a massive resurgence in popularity in the Persian Gulf.
Popular as a niche to***co in the Middle East for generations, “dokha” is the unadulterated, traditional, and unique Arabic to***co. Unlike most to***cos, dokha is not fire or air cured and cut, but rather sun-dried in the arid desert from which it’s cultivated. This subspecies of nicotiana is grown in extremely hot and dry conditions. These conditions combined with watering restrictions puts stress on the plant prompting it to increase ni****ne and other alkaloid production. The dried leaves are finely ground within a few days or up to a few weeks as to preserve the color, quality, freshness, and flavor. Due to the far lesser degree of processing, dokha to***co shows up basically unaltered and keeps up the green hue of the normal plant. The to***co is then carefully mixed with leaves from each segment of the plant. The resulting mixes are regularly grouped into light or “barid”(cold dokha), medium or “daffi” (warm dokha), or hot or “harr” (hot dokha) blends.
In the past, residents of these desert regions smoked dokha because it gave them an invigorating and soothing head rush or “laf raas”. However, since it’s arrival, different farming methods and selective breeding has made some amazing progress for this to***co throughout the years. What we have today is a far superior to***co product that has been perfected for generations. Traditional dokha was frequently blended with dried flowers, herbs, spices, and other flavorings to cool the strength and harsh temperature of the to***co and enhance different flavor notes. Some Iranian and Turkish mixes would be blended with the barks and leaves of indigenous local plants. Present day Dokha, due to the demand of the market, is essentially 100% unadulterated to***co without any additives like other to***co products, which are fermented, aged, and processed with fillers and chemicals. And unlike most to***co, dokha is cultivated using only fish meal and without the use of herbicides and pesticides.
When compared to other to***co products, Most smokers who have delved into dokha are captivated by its unique attributes, the satisfactory buzz it gives to the smoker, and the superior flavor versus ci******es, rolling to***co, ci**rs or other pipe to***cos. Our customers can be assured that our dokha blends are pure, organic, additive-free and of the highest quality. We source our dokha from some of the oldest family farming groups and growing regions in the Middle East. Our relationship with them ensures that quality and fair pricing be passed on to you, the customer.
