I was wondering what you all thought about the Qat (Khat, miraa) grown in Somalia, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia? I first learned about it during my Somaliland studies. I'd like to get some.

is a flowering plant native to tropical East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Believed to have originated in Ethiopia, it is a shrub or small tree growing to 5–8 m tall, with evergreen leaves 5–10 cm long and 1–4 cm broad. The flowers are produced on short axillary cymes 4–8 cm long, each flower small, with five white petals. The fruit is an oblong three-valved capsule containing 1–3 seeds.

Khat contains the alkaloid cathinone, an amphetamine-like stimulant which causes excitement and euphoria...
