in sweden all we smoke is hasch. weed is twice as expensive due to that. i personally dont like the taste, but when you built up a tolerance to weed its nice to switch it up and smoke some haschish in a hooka or just a big ass joint.

i think the reason for it being more used in europe is that its easier to get a hold of. its easier to ship cand conceal it.
but swedes do like bud more so when they get ahold of a bomb bud they hold it to themself...like gollum.
with bud you just put it in a bowl and smoke it. hasch you gotta burn and mix with tobacco or some weed to make it burn evenly PLUS you allways get sleepy of hash. i vote for weed anytime of the week

My younger brother told me a story once about hash & camel shit. He was in the Navy back in the early 80's during a Mediterranean cruise. My brother and several of his ship mates wanted to purchase a large amount of hash . After finding someone who would do business with them they followed this local to a building where he let them sample the goods. After they were pretty well ripped they negotiated a price they paid the guy and went on their way only later they found that they had been duped . The hash turned out to be camel shit. Apparently they had been victims of the old bait & switch. The bad thing is they tried smoking the shit several times before a more seasoned Navy man told them that they had been screwed . Apparently it was well known that this kind of thing routinely took place when the Navy docked in This port .
Believe me i never let my brother Live this down !

Back in the day I felt blond hash was meh, not really worth the money. Black hash, the gooey sticky kind you could roll in a ball was nirvana for me.
"blond" hash has too many immature trichs, which is why it's that lightly colored...so just like weed, you get a quick, intense buzz, that fades off way too quickly.

I would argue that proximity to Morocco has a lot to do with why Europe consumes so much of it. Morocco is the largest hash producing country in the world. I had the privilege of living about 40 minutes from the straights of Gibraltar so for me 10 grams of hash was €30 as opposed to like 4 grams of flower that €30 would have fetched in one of the clubs. For me it was dollars and cents. I could go a week on 10 grams. A point of interest though, this hash wasnt the same as BHO, bubble, or rosin. It was much less concentrated. which brings me to my next point. Hash was just culturally three. So once these more potent forms came along it was very natural.

That's my hypothesis as to why hash is more mainstream in Europe, but there are tons of hash smokers on both sides of the pond. I live in Denver and I keep about 5 grams of BHO at all times I just don't smoke much of it because after a while I just can't get high anymore. I'll just be smoking all day, pulling on a rig, and burning hash to no avail.

The stuff I was smoking in Spain was rolled up with tobacco and a small pinch of Moroccan hash. It pretty much turned a rollie into a joint. I went back for holiday about 2 years ago and I picked up some fire ass flower in Sevilla and took it down to Puerto de Santa Maria to smoke with my friends from out there. I knew they'd all have that "chocolate." They did, they broke me off a piece and we smoked joints with hash in them. It was great.

On my Med Cruise, we learned to go to the African bars to buy hash. They didn't charge two prices just because we were sailors like the Europeans did.

We love Hash, dry ice, bubble, old fashioned lebanese sift and high carb bho wax. I grow flower to make hash.....
Me too. I make edibles often times. Nothing like taking some scissors to a big ole cola throwing it in the stove and going to work. Dont sleep on my hash though, I've gotten props in Barcelona for my blonde sift.

why do you throw it in the stove? is that a name for some piece of equipment that i'm not aware of? or do you actually...decarb? before you make hash? ¿....?

Yeah I decarb in a conventional oven. 240°f for 35 mins. Put in some kind of oil - I generally use coconut oil or butter. Also, more often than not I just throw the weed in whatever I'm cooking. I like the taste of cannabis.
