Moroccan kif

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by floyd123, Sep 1, 2014.

  1. So, recently I have been reading a collection of short stories by Paul Bowles (a profound stoned read and a daily toker for 40 years. My father spent time with him). Anyways, my father was telling me that when he spent time with Bowles, they would smoke a common local preparation referred to indigenously as "kif", which is not to be confused with the stuff at the bottom of your grinder. Apparently this "kif" is a preparation of tobacco, cannabis, hashish and spices, then loaded into a sebsi; a long almond wood pipe with a tiny clay bowl.
     
    So my question is: Does anyone have experience with Moroccan "kif" culture? I am curious about the preparation details, like ratios hash to cannabis to tobacco, But even more so about the kind of Tobacco used. Is it a pipe tobacco? or shag? Dark or sweet? and what kinds of spices are added to the preparation. 
     
    Cheers!
     
     
     
    ** I am well aware of the dangers of tobacco use, and It would really be appreciated if such comments would be withheld. I am attempting to learn more about another culture in lieu of visiting due to circumstance. If you have a quarrel with this type of cannabis/tobacco preparation, you can take it up with the people of Morocco. 

     
  2. You tube has a number of really good documentaries about hashish. In these you can see the use you mention, although there is little explanation.
     
    Look up;  Strain hunters and National Geographic hash videos. These depict what you are talking about.
