I've heard that smoking dokha provides the user with a
nicotine buzz stronger than any other -- at least when it comes to other methods of smoking
tobacco. (Hookah, pipe, cigar, cigarette, cigarillo, etc.)
Other than Nicotiana rustica, used by Amazonian shamans and in the "thuoc lao" that the Vietnamese smoke, I can't imagine anything stronger than some of these "spicy" dokhas. So I guess my question is, what kind of tobacco on steroids are they putting in dokha? Is it normal N. tabacum? Is it N. alata? A certain variety of N. tabacum?
