Hashes :

Amsterdam Coffeeshop Hash
Image
Image
I decided to start with this Amsterdam Coffee first as it certainly stood out to me straight away. Displaying a light beige-blonde appearance and a creamy, soft texture that is very malleable and workable. Easily rolls into any desired shape for pipes, bowls, or joints, however one may wish. I personally enjoy hash in a pipe but mixing with tobacco can really compliment the flavours.

Coincidentally enough, the aromas offered by this Amsterdam Coffeeshop definitely remind me of a very sweet, caramel coffee. Truly some lovely hash that smells good enough to eat. The taste is also very pleasant when smoked, just a little less sweet as added nuances of rich earth are added into the mix.

A very quick hitting buzz that effects the mind first, producing a cerebral high that is focused and heady, feeling it right behind the eyes. It eventually transcends itself into more of a euphoric driven high with mellow physical effects, giving this hash a balanced, hybrid nature.

Temple Ball

Next up, a hash I've never had and wanted to try for some time now, Nepalese Temple Ball. Extremely soft and malleable, feeling like a nice chunk of playdough or clay when worked between the fingers. It looks like a very moist brownie with it's fudge like colour and appearance. This one has the most desirable consistency out of all the hashes I tried so far from these guys.

This one has a beautifully pungent and aromatic profile with it's rich aromas and flavours of fresh, sweet earth, accented by hints of herbal tea. I could smell and smoke this all day long and not get tired of it. Goes very well mixed with flower of tobacco in a joint as it can easily be rolled into a snake. It burns very slow due to It being so putty like in nature.

The high produced by this hash is a very quick acting one as it instantly goes to the head, feeling a fuzzy wave of cerebral effects behind the eyes and temples. The initial buzz eventually subsides and spreads out to the rest of the body and limbs, feeling extremely relaxed and mellow. It can even be couch locking in larger amounts as it's quite potent.

Red Lebanese

Last up, the one I was most excited to try as it's been a real treat the couple times that I've had it in the past. This burgundy Red Lebanese hash has a semi soft, velvety texture and appearance, resembling a red velvet cake with it's consistency and colour. It breaks apart with minimal effort and is quite malleable. A little plant material can be seen as well.

Gentle aromas of spices and herbs that instantly make me think of tea. I even get a little bit of a nutmeg kind of smell in there. The flavours don't really come through as much as I'd like when smoked unfortunately and the unique tea taste is rather subtle, giving it more of a generic spicy flavour. Very smooth hash however and still enjoyable.

Medium-potency effects that seem to be all in the head at first especially behind the temples, offering bouts of euphoria that can leave one zoned out in thought. Although minimal, there are some physical effects but they are more relaxing than anything and not overly sedative.

Cronos Afghanistan Hash
Image
Image
This Cronos Afghanistan Hashish arrived with a texture that appears solid at first but is actually quite flexible after handling it for a couple minutes. Definitely the only one that had this type of consistency as the others were decisively either very hard or soft. It displays a darker brown exterior with a slightly lighter interior.

Beautiful aromas exuding from this hash that are very incense like in nature. A mix of fresh earth and spices with hints of sweetness as well. Definitely a distinct smell like the description says. It tastes just as pleasant, providing flavours of sweet, earthy hash that leaves a lingering spicy taste on the tongue.

The high seems pretty potent and I could tell right  away based on how my complete mood changed from wide awake to melted back in my chair. Tingly, body buzzing effects, paired with a calming head stone that feels quite spacey too. Definitely one to save for evenings or a slow day as I can't see myself being too functional with this one.

Apollo Afghani Hashish
Image
Image
Started the day off with some of this Apollo Afghani Hashish. This one is rather hard but not to the point of crumbling as it can be malleable especially when a little heat is applied. A colour that resembles a darker brown soil with a lighter brown/green complexion within. Also noticed this one to have a few tiny little hairs or extra plant matter than the others.

This hash has a stronger nose due to it's spicy and herbal profile but it's also accented with this fresh mint kind of smell. The taste is quite similar and rich, producing flavours of earth and spices that can even overpower the taste of flower when mixed together.

The high feels very balanced with this Apollo as it offers a mix of cerebral, heady effects and soothing, physical effects. I found it perfect for focusing and really dialing into a task that requires a little creativity and stick-to-itiveness. It's relaxing and calming side promoted a very tranquil and easy going buzz that added to it's overall "care free" demeanour.

The Bulldog Amsterdam Hash
Image
Image
Just like the other Amsterdam Hash I previously reviewed, this Bulldog is also light in appearance, sporting a greenish beige colour. Very soft to the touch as well and breaks up with ease, allowing it to be worked with in multiple ways as it's nice and malleable.

Gentle and pleasant aromas emerging from this hash that remind me of sweet caramel coffee. It's not as strong smelling as some of the other hashes but it's very enjoyable nonetheless. Translates over to flavour with some added hints of rich earth to compliment the sweetness and comes through smoothly in each way that I've tried it.

More of a light, mellow high to this one, promoting an uplifted, cerebral buzz that feels very functional and clear headed. It can also be quite socially engaging as I found myself talking a lot more than usual. Good for an early session as it doesn't seem to have any sedative effects.

Habibi Moroccan Hash
Image
Image
Up next is this Moroccan Habibi Hash. Arriving in a very hard and solid brick that is dark brown on the outside with a lighter brown interior. It's not needed, but applying some heat definitely helps to pick off little pieces that crumble to a fine consistency when rubbed between the fingers.

Sweet, rich, hashish aromas and flavours that are subtle but extremely pleasant as the taste lingers on the pallet, followed by undertones of fresh coffee and earth. I actually prefer to smoke this hash in a joint or on top of a bed of flower as it can break up too fine for a pipe. Very smooth.

Probably my favourite effects of the hashes I've reviewed so far as this one offered a heavier sense of relaxation with couch locking tendencies. I just wanted to melt back into my chair and enjoy it's soothing embrace as it definitely felt like more of an indica stone. Perfect for a lazy, care-free evening.

Casa Blanca Moroccan Hash
Image
Image
This Casa Blanca is literally the opposite of the Amsterdam Coffeeshop I previously reviewed when it comes to looks and texture. Dark brown in colour with a very hard consistency that can be chipped away in pieces or warmed up with a lighter to make it softer. Not as easy to work with as it isn't malleable.

Offering aromas of sweet, earthy hash, followed by hints of rich spices. It's not a very strong smelling hash but it isn't too subtle either. The flavours are similar but with a touch of earthy mint that is noticed after exhaling. Super smooth stuff in a pipe.

The effects are both mentally and physically calming, starting with a very spacey cerebral buzz that leaves the head feeling light on the shoulders. It's then met with mellow, body buzzing effects that leave one simultaneously uplifted and relaxed at the same time. Great vibe for just lounging around.

Flowers :

Granddaddy Purple
Image
Image
Been a while since last having this classic strain. Buds that are long and conical in structure, sporting forest green colours accented by purple streaks and pale orange pistils. Frosty and neatly trimmed, though perhaps just a tad crispy in texture as even minimal handling causes excess crumbs. Nothing some jar time and a humidity pack can't fix as the buds began to liven up after a couple of days.

Not the most intriguing or pronounced GDP's I've tried to be honest. Instead, this one is more earthy and subtly sweet, with flavours that translate to the same extent but I do get the odd reminder of fresh, backyard grapes at times. Smooth smoking and decently clean burning, just a very light smoke and not as flavourful as I'd been hoping.

An indica dominant hybrid that slowly creeps into the back of the head, leaving you feeling spacey and lifted. Relaxing and couch locking as well while promoting bouts of euphoria. Maybe not the most potent or long lasting as the buzz seems to plateau rather quickly, encouraging you to go for another bowl or two.

Lemon Skunk
Image
Image
These colourful nugs of Lemon Skunk display shades purples and light greens, highlighted by stout orange pistils. Dense and compact in structure, sporting a tight trim with a few extra sugar leaves. Slightly crispy in humidity but still far from dry, paired with a modest amount of trichomes.

A profile that is very pungent, stinging the senses with a mix sweet, zesty lemon-pine, followed by sharp undertones of earth and skunk. It does a good job translating to flavour, leaving notes of lemon zest and earth on the pallet with skunky nuances on exhale. Smooth for the most part, however the smoke is slightly on the acrid side and burns a salt and pepper ash.

Uplifting cerebral effects that start off with a mild and clear headed stone. Really puts in you in a happy and energetic state, having you eager and motivated to tackle any challenges you have for the day. Smoke a larger amount however and the heady effects can be more of the spaced out kind opposed to focused.

Rainbow Kush
Image
Image
A cross of Dancehall x Blueberry, this rainbow kush sports a narrow and compact bud structure to go with it's relatively neat trim. Visually appealing, displaying light green colours that are overshadowed by the swift combination of milky trichs and orange pistils. Real frosty and probably the stickiest and freshest of the samples.

This one offers a very sweet, tropical profile, producing notes of sweet and tangy citrus followed by hints of fruity pine and skunk. Reminds me a lot of strains like Mimosa and Rainbow Driver coincidentally. Translates identically over to the taste, although very briefly as the smoke tends to disappear rather quickly. Smooth smoking regardless, providing a light coloured ash and greasy resin ring.

An evenly balanced hybrid promoting a mix of both uplifting and calming qualities. Very heady in nature before the buzz begins to level out, which in turn leaves you very mellow and relaxed. It never once gets overbearing or sedating, but rather leaves you quite functional and upbeat.

White Tahoe Cookies
Image
Image
The White, Tahoe OG, and an unknown Girl Scout Cookie cross make up these buds of White Tahoe Cookies. A strain I've always been curious to try. Arriving in large, densely structured nugs that are quite plump and chunky. Mainly light green in colour, followed by dark green sugar leaves and vibrant orange pistils that form in patches. Moderately sticky and trimmed to a tee.

Nothing too special about the profile of this White Tahoe Cookies which is unfortunate as I was looking forward to this one. Seems to be more of a generic GSC profile with notes of sweet and peppery cookies paired with herbal pine undertones. Translates accurately over to the taste with a sweet and peppery smoke. Reminds me slightly of a LA Cookies just not as rich and savoury. Smooth and fairly clean burning nonetheless, leaving behind a light salt and pepper ash.

Decently potent in effects and probably it's strong suit, providing a full balanced, hybrid type stone. Very heady and relaxing with uplifting qualities, making for an all day suitable smoke. Couch locking as well but not so heavy and more mellow, allowing you to enjoy yourself without getting tired or overly lazy.

Space Drops 150mg THC Distillate Gummies
Image
Extremely tasty pineapple flavoured gummies with an almost non existent weed flavour. 150mg THC Distillate per pack (3 pieces in total) The effects were minor but still enjoyable as far as a light, mellow high goes. I never have much success with distillate infused edibles anyhow but these were definitely some of the better tasting ones I've had without a doubt and they aren't overly sprayed and sticky with distillate.
