A sebsi or sibsi is a traditional Moroccan pipe used to smoke Kief (Keef, Kif), a type of prepared cannabis.
The sebsi is normally made from a hard wood, such as almond or walnut, with the main body being about 18 inches (45 cm) long. A clay pipe head, called a skuff (or shkaff), is used to smoke the kif.
Types
S'basa (plural of sebsi) from the south of Morocco are shorter than those from the north. A shorter sebsi produces hotter smoke. A filled sebsi is normally smoked with several sharp intakes, followed by blowing back through the pipe to clear the ash and smoke. The sebsi is then refilled and passed to the next person who wants to smoke. Sebsi smokers are common sights in the north of Morocco where the practice is widely spread. An opposite attitude exists from Rabat southwards.
