Vigorously wiping the dust off dustbins.
It's about time we discussed the merits of hashish in European culture.

Has anyone had much experience with opium hash?

Many moons ago I had some red leb, we used to get Pakistani black (with the slight green tint), charas. Just about every hash going.
Nowadays it's rare to see any sort of uber deluxe hashish in my hood.

Man I miss the days when top quality Moroccan was on tap... *sighs*
 
Cornishman, can you not even start a thread without making a hash of it?

Ahem. Sorry.

During my teens there was quite a lot of hash available, with Pakistani black and Moroccan being the most prominent of the better varieties. Soapbar realy began to take hold, but back then we weren't all that concerned - we were kids, it was so much cheaper than the proper has, plus the soapbar wasn't quite as awful as it is now (though maybe hindsight has its part to play in that statement).

After that, there was the premium green / 'skunk' boom, where it went from being more or less a delicacy to being the norm. Suddenly nobody wanted to smoke 'solid', and for a glorious period I was getting some very competent Moroccan for just a little bit more than soapbar prices.

Of course, most of the 'hash' around my area by then was soapbar, so I never really thought about it much until about 2006, when weed briefly all-but disappeared around here. I ended up smoking some black and getting all nostalgic. Conclusion? I should smoke more hash.
 
im smoking some charas type hash, lovely stuff with a great taste and a stone that you can feel in the back of your eye sockets =D

funny you should mention opium as ive smoked this stuff a fair bit and gotten a ever so slight nod but im guessing this was just the good hash in it, but i tested it by eating abit and conked out, awoke to find myself surrounded by crisp packets and various other packets of shite id never eat, dont remember eating them, so wonder if there is any truth in the opium/hash myth

EDIT: a great thread i may add, i love hash and i think every toker should too
 
I thought that opiated hash wouldn't work properly because the burning temp of cannabis resin is so much higher than that of opium, and that the opium would not burn in the gentle way required to get the most out of it. That's what I took from previous discussion of the subject on this board.

Hash is one of my favourite things although circumstances (availability) have meant a lot of weed smoking lately. In the last six months I think the best thing I had was blonde Moroccan which had a kind of fudgey consistency. Brittle cold, flexible and crumbly after a minute in my sweaty palm and apparently not very heavily pressed. Certainly not melted down and remixed in a Spanish scrapyard. Quite a cerebral, buzzy high devolving into contented dreaminess. Generally though I don't have access to the variety that I had about five years ago when a friend knew a specialist who had a mouth watering spectrum of 'boutique' hash from yellow dusty slates to a dark greenish-black paste. Ugh, taste the rainbow.
 
The only hash I would trust these days is home made bubble hash or dry sift, I have heard that even the best of import hashes have some level of adulterants in.

I wouldn't even entertain the idea of trying to buy hash locally.
 
I'm not saying there has never beeen "opiated" hash avaailable, but I think there's a lot of myth involved. People are sometimes surprised by the strength of a bit of genuine hash, and clutching at straws to explain to themselves why they are sooo stoned is easy to lay the blame at the opiated hash's door.

I used to buy a fair bit of opium, and found smoking it to be rather troublesome, even smoking it as raw opium was quite a knack. Also you neeed to smoke a fair bit of it to get the desired effect, I can't imagine how much "opiated resin" you'd need to put in a spliff to have enough opium to noticably affect you.

And finally, i'd have thought if you DID buy opiated hash, you'd have been told it from the start, the seller would be making a song and dance about it, no hashmaker is going to slyly add opium to the mix and not tell customers, and not charge a premium for it.
 
Ahh my sort of thread =D

I have access to all different types of charas, temple ball and pollen, mainly indian and nepalese, all really beautiful smokes, i still need to up a pic i took ages ago of some pollen and temple ball, will do that later, the charas i can get comes from many different villages in the himilayas, rasol, shadhu malana etc, all cerebral up highs and then the pollen which is a couch lock high.

Unfortunately i haven't had the joy of opie-hash as of yet but im still hunting!

thats what i thought, i know it was basically just the good hash, seemed to surprise me when it knocked me out from munching a bit :D

my favourite hash is definately napelese temple ball, such a taste and high, pity it doesnt appear locally much or its all id be having =D
 
I really really miss soapbar, especially the proper high end stuff with bits blue plastic added to it as an indicator of superior quality, you can still find red leb, manilla cream, temple ball and all that jazz in coffee shops in the dam, but if you ask for some 80/90s british blue bit soap you'll get nothing but funny faces made at you.

BRING BACK SOAP!!
 
^I'm having the same problem finding some of that awesome sparkly weed from 2008/9 that left nice oily ash that smudged all over the place. I'm thinking of smashing my own glass and sprinkling it over the top, I just hope it has the same tendancy to cause lung deflation and tissue damage :(
 
Found 13kg blocks of soap bar in the forest near our school when we were about 15, you needed a good 10g joint to do anything, I wonder how much tyre I have in my lungs...
 
Oh for the days when someone round the corner used to get eggs of extraordinary charas in clingfilm. Fifteen years ago... good lord. He'd pinch off a blob and guestimate the price while making mint tea and demonstrating whatever amazing hifi kit he'd recently bought. Very civilised kind of arrangement, I wonder what happened to him.

Its like the double dipped acid old wives tale Mali.The blotter can only absorb as much as it can.
I was smoking in Southern Spain last year and scored some nice hash(10 g for 40 euro).When my partner in crime and I smoked it he was layed out on the bed for hours after 2 joints.He was trying to convince me that the guy we scored from was dodgy and there was Heroin in it(we met him in a bar and he sold us some of his own stash at his apartment).The hash in Spain or Amsterdam is Champions league and the Hash in the UK/Ireland is Sunday league for the most part. In my experience good hash is stronger and more economical than good green.(If your able to get both !)

Good thread
 
I know nothing about hash, I just had some blonde Moroccan delivered. It's kinda hard but you can still crumble it with your fingers. Smells nice. Educate me!
 
If it's nice blonde it should bubble and expand a bit when held about 4mm from a flame. Good blonde tends to stick to your fingers a little as you crumble it. In a spliff your best bet is to heat and crumble til it looks like golden sand and sprinkle it evenly on a bed of tobacco. Rolling tobacco works best as it cradles and cossets the precious grains of hashish and allows them to smoulder at the correct pace instead of blazing briefly amid the uncaring saltpetre-saturated flakes of cigarette tobacco. If you have a pipe you may get best effects by taking a piece half the size of a pea, placing it in the bowl, having one lug on it then squashing it so it crumbles a little then repeating. The purer the hash the lighter the ash. Enjoy!
 
Anyone heard of good Afghan Black being about? There seems to be some at the moment and I'm tempted. Normally though the stuff here is the smoke that looks the part, but when you smoke it its a clean but weak as fuck high and after 2-3 bongs no matter what you wont be getting any higher. Hoping this is different!
