About medwakh and dokha
The medwakh is a small, slim pipe with a tiny bowl, rooted in Emirati and Gulf tradition. It's filled with dokha, a finely ground tobacco smoked in one or two short draws. Blends are commonly sold as warm or cold, which describes their character.

Care
Clean the medwakh regularly to keep the draw clear and the taste fresh. Keep dokha sealed so it doesn't dry out.
