How is Whoonga Used?

Nyaope is usually consumed by rolling it with tobacco and cannabis into a joint for smoking. In powdery form, it can also be snorted. A more recent development, is the use of a process known as “bluetoothing”. This is achieved by one addict sharing (or selling) their blood to another addict, by means of a minor blood transfusion. A syringe is used for extracting “laden” blood from one user and then injecting it into another user. Nyaope is powerfully addictive; one hit is enough to get hooked.
