Some of the best hashish, however, has historically come from the Arab world, and that region remains renowned for the quality and potency of their product. So read on, and get a glimpse of some of the finest hashish specimens on the market that have their origins in the Middle East. Yellow Lebanese Lebanon, for some, is considered to be the hash capital of the world, and as such is home to some of the best hashish on the planet. One of the most widely consumed strains of hash out of Lebanon is known as yellow hash, which is harvested early from younger plants that still have a high amount of THC in them. Yellow Lebanese hash, however, is often considered to be a bit harsher than other strains on the market, and for some it might be something of an acquired taste. Still, however, this doesn’t stop scores of hash-heads from trying to get their hands on this spicy substance, and the cerebral high that it provides is usually more than enough to make up for the harshness of the smoke. Red Lebanese Red Lebanese is made from older plants than its yellow cousin, and it is said to contain higher amounts of non-psychoactive CBN but less THC. The red variety is said to be a much mellower form of hash as well, making it highly sought after, and the pleasant aroma that comes along with it only adds to its demand. Also, don’t let that lower THC count fool you. Red Lebanese is still plenty potent, and users are sure to enjoy a nice, mellow high whenever they get their hands on it. Afghan Afghan hash is one of the most popular forms of hash in Europe, and it’s well known for its dark, often black color. Like other types of hash, the Afghan variety tends to have a somewhat spicy taste, and can be considered harsh on the throat, especially for new users Afghan hash is typically Indica-heavy and can create a potent body high as well as a strong cerebral high in users. The effects, however, are often a bit delayed, leading some people to initially underestimate the true potency of this variety of hash. For maximum effect, it is most advisable to wait about five minutes before it really kicks in, but once it does just sit back and enjoy the ride. Moroccan Ok, so technically Morocco is in North Africa, and not the Middle East, but for the sake of this article we are going to include it anyway. Along with Afghan, Moroccan hash is one of the most popular varieties of hash on the market, but unlike the stuff from Afghanistan there is a much greater diversity to the kinds of hash coming out of Morocco, with varieties ranging from blonde to light brown and even green. The one thing that most varieties of Moroccan hash have in common, however, is the fact that they usually have a much more mild, sometimes even sweet taste, and are easier on the throat that the strains that come from other parts of the world. Moroccan has is also usually less potent than some of its cousins from neighboring nations, but that doesn’t mean it won’t get you buzzing! Moroccan is known for producing an active, cerebral high in users that is highly sought after my many. Turk Turkish hash, like Moroccan, is often also easier on the throat than the other Middle Eastern varieties, and typically comes in a greenish-brown color. It is also very rarely considered to be particularly potent, with most varieties of Turkish hash containing somewhere between 3.5%-8.8% THC content. Turkish hash, surprisingly, is considered to be one of the most cerebral highs available from any kind of hashish, and druglibrary.org credits it as “probably the most cerebral high of any kind of Hash” on the market today. It is, however, rather rare to get your hands on Turkish hash, and the strict laws in its nation of origin mean that it is often extremely difficult to get the product out to the rest of the world. The Middle East, however, isn’t the only place that produces high quality hashish. Nations like India, Pakistan, Nepal, and elsewhere also make fine, high quality products of their own. So get out there and do some sampling to find your favorite variety. There is a world of hash out there that’s just waiting to be explored! 34 minutes ago, RANDYH said: BUY HASH ONLINE AT KANAPOST.COM! ------this is absolutely the best 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 that's how it's done. Makes "cowboy coffee" look more like "the old way". Sans cardomon and ginger. Can't imagine any cowboy putting girly spices in their coffee.
