Ok people, i have been doing heroin on a fairly regular basis for the past 2 years+ now, and recently moved to a new place where they sell something different to the conventional H...
...the first thing to strike me of this stuff is the price tag - about 13$ compared to the 4'-45$ of H...
the name is 'cobrett' (though this is italian, maybe means nothing to yous)...
...the effect on the body are practically identical to H, but on the mind this stuff has a far more 'druggie' feeling to it - by which i mean i can't cope with conversation as well as with H (which usually boosts social behaviour), this 'cobrett' tends to blur my mind a little, making me less sharp...
another difference i've been told about (fortunately never experienced it myself though) is that this stuff gives more intense physical withdrawls than normal H.
...i've asked people in the area where i buy this stuff, but they're all a bunch of friggin junkies (i'm new around here, so i dont actually know anyone who's into this stuff)... essentially i get two points of view:
- its a 'low-grade' heroin
- its a synthetic form of heroin
...i favour the second of these answers, even if that doesnt tell me much of this substance... anyone able to enlighten me on the issue?

sputnic - i should've said it's probably not Fentanyl coz this stuff is the standard light-brown colour of any other H...
so visually you cannot distinguish it at all... the taste is the usual **bitter** (difficult to tell how close to H though) and there is a different with smell, coz this stuff hardly has any at all... this being the sole reason for which i privilege the synthetic dope explanation...
but i still dont know wtf this is...
 
Hiya.
I did a google search for "cobrett" and got nothing. However, if you search for "cobret" you get quite a lot of information, for example
"Ever more popular too is the use of cobret, a brown powder derived from cocaine, and free-base or crack: cocaine which can be smoked."
from this Dutch website
and
"Cobret is a new drug made with heroin that has been cut with other toxic substances. To be consumed it must be heated up and then inhaled. Being rather inexpensive (10-20.000 lire per dose), it seems to be most used drug among young people in Naples. The drug as already reached Rome and is slowly moving towards the Northen regions of Italy."
taken from this website
and
"cobret, it is a mix of oil of hashish and heroin of B series that does not give much dependency etc."
taken from this poorly translated Italian website
and
"COBRET : is powder of heroin scaldata on one tinfoil and, attention, not more iniettata but sniffata. In Italy it began to diffuse itself to the beginning of 1997 between the boys whom they consumed ecstasy. They took the Cobret to the end of the night in order to calm itself."

Hope this helps?

This one seems more like the truth
"Cobret : heroin draft, or, more just, than an intermediate product of obtainable working jumping the phase of acetification that transforms the heroin base in cloridrato heroin (iniettabile). Task for inhalation, is one of the more deleterious drugs for the organism."
taken from yet another poorly translated Italian website
 
clop you goddamn genius, you sorted me out good there... i didnt even bother trying a web search, thinking i wouldnt get anything...
will learn for next time, for now though, much obliged to clop :D

Heh heh no problem.
Just for you.. the last one in Italian
"Cobret : si tratta di eroina, o, più precisamente, di un prodotto intermedio di lavorazione ottenibile saltando la fase di acetificazione che trasforma l'eroina base in eroina cloridrato (iniettabile). Assunto per inalazione, è una delle droghe più deleterie per l'organismo."
clop out
 
take it easy there :(
I actually wasn't being sarcastic. I was very impressed with the info you found and I am pretty enthusiastic on opiates.
