Grand Daddy Purple Kief From Green Cross (Merkaba)

Chubbs — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 06:48:33 +0000

When I first opened these pics, these nugs just looked like bales of hay. Little did I know…

Submitted By: Merkaba (Member and Editor)

Camera Used: Olympus FE-46

Name: Grand Daddy Purple Kief

From: Green Cross (Dispensary – Torrance)

Grade: A+

Type: Indica (I’m not sure if GDP is an Indica dominant hybrid, or an Indica itself but I think it’s pretty Indica dominant.)

Price: Complimentary 420 gift

Looks: AMAZING! Like a gift brought back from another planet! Like the color of sand. A close up zoom will reveal it’s got very little plant matter in this batch – looks like pure trichs to me. Also, I think its awesome that there are kief nugs! Very different and pleasing as well from the normal sand you’re used to getting.

Smell: Like pure trichomes. Very hashy, but light. "Smells like the color"- is the best I can do.

Taste: Very soft, mellow hashy taste. Slightly spicy towards the end of the exhale.

Buzz Type: Hard, heavy, but pleasing. Stony, but very giddy as well. At least for me

Buzz Length: Medium – Long. 2-3hrs off 1-2 bowls. Pretty potent stuff. I find myself constantly asking myself, "I’m still THIS high?"

Overall: I love this kief so much. I’ve been getting free 1/2gs every Friday for freebie Fridays, and I must say I’m extremely impressed with the quality of this kief. I’ve had LA Confidential kief from here as well and it was just as good as this even though I think this GDP was a little more expensive. I’ve never had kief that I could break chunks of off with my fingers! WOW! That’s amazing! –Merkaba

WOW! Wonder how many people will run out and purchase some of this. This review is a walking ad for this kief. Merkaba, do you remember what the pricing was on this? –Mrs. Chubbs

Pakistani Charas From Pakistan (Heavyhitter88)

Chubbs — Mon, 31 May 2010 06:23:16 +0000

For those of you that don’t know (and I didn’t until I looked it up), the Middle East (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, etc) calls hand-made hash charas.

Submitted By: Heavyhitter88 (Member and Editor)

Camera Used: Canon Powershot SD1000. Old, I know, but reliable, ABSOLUTELY! Has never crapped out on me over at least 4 years. It’s scratched up as hell, but still functions wonderfully and provides awesome shots.

Name: Pakistani Charas

From: Pakistan

Grade: A- for a hash. I grade hashes on a separate scale from buds, because I personally feel it is unfair to compare the two as they are very different.

Type: Hand rolled Pakistani charas. Comes in long thin bars, almost like a dark chocolate candy bar.

Price: Dirt cheap. I got a bar of at least 7 grams for about $20. And I knew I was being ripped off, but that price for that much hash is absurd and I wasn’t about to argue about it.

Looks: Outside is dark, dark brown, nearly black, and shiny. But the inside is a lighter brown, even a bit golden, and very crystally. Almost nougat-like inside, with a hard outer shell.

Smell: Aromatic and spicy. You can’t really smell the outside too strongly, but it still emits subtle hints of spice and incense. The first time I broke a piece of the bar off, my nostrils were hit by an incredibly strong, spicy aroma that flooded my room. There were hints of fruity-ness, and incense, but the spice was predominant.

If I could describe it as anything, I suppose it was a lot like rosemary mixed with burning cumin and sugar. It was very pleasant, and when it burned the incense smell came out powerfully.

Taste: Very hashy (haha). Spicy, but also skunky. Not really much sweet or incense in the taste, mainly a nice balance between spicy and skunky that left a somewhat sour taste (in a good way) in my mouth after each hit.

Buzz Type: Stoned Body High. The body high kicked in first and I began to buzz a little and, as I relaxed in my chair, felt like I was slowly melting. The head high came slowly, but soon enough my mind raced from one topic to the next, then settled on listening to music outside.

Buzz Length: Long. Pretty decent, probably heavily sedated for 3-4 hours, and I had a bit of a come down buzz for pretty much the rest of the night.

Overall: By the time I got to take the photos I had burned through most of the bar, and was relying on the little I had left. That tiny chunk in the photos lasted me for easily 2 weeks.

The hand rolled aspect is really neat, as I am not the biggest fan of the crazy technological hash crazes nowadays. My motto: who needs a bag when you can just go get your hands covered in resin and roll your own hash bars? Anyways, maybe I’m a purist—and obviously I know new methods such as bubble bags, ice water extraction, and whatnot create a purer product—but I just love the fact that I’m smoking hand rolled hash.

Buzz Report: Though very similar to Indian charas, it has a bit of a spicier taste. The effects are nearly identical, but I must say I think the Pakistani charas lasts a bit longer.

If you ever get a chance, for the real deal that is—not the crap they sell in dispensaries or shops in Amsterdam claiming to be “charas”, which is usually leftovers—then definitely take it. You will not regret it. I just wish I had brought four or five charas balls and a few charas sticks back, but that is a risk I am most definitely not nearly ready to make. –Heavyhitter88

Israeli Hash From Private Dealer (510 Smokey and Genie 913)

Chubbs — Thu, 20 May 2010 06:10:19 +0000

We have a first time review (and a concentrate, too!) from the member who might have the longest user name ever…

Submitted By: 510 Smokey and Genie 913 (Member)

Camera Used: Canon PowerShot A430

Name: Hash

From: Private Dealer – Israel

Grade: B+

Type: Concentrate – Hash

Price: $40/oz

Looks: Variations of brown (dark delight). When broken into long, slender pieces, the "fingers" look like Kit-Kat bars. When held under light, faint glisten of crystals.

Smell: None until toasted, hashy, slightly spicy smell.

Taste: Inhale is fairly harsh, with a similar hashy, spicy flavor on exhale.

Buzz Type: 50-50 sativa/indica high. I found it to immediately induce a very strong head high and body high while The Genie found it to be more of a Sativa high in the beginning, with an Indica comedown.

Buzz Length: Medium. 1.5-3 hours.

Overall: Beyond well worth its price as far as hash goes albeit a medium quality hash. –510 Smokey and Genie 913

Ah-ha – this member is actually two members…I like the yin and yang thing.

WOW – that price is incredible. I guess that’s the benefit of traipsing out into the Middle East. –Mrs. Chubbs

Sweet Skunk Hash (IE420Patient)

Chubbs — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 21:20:45 +0000

Most people might look at this and be a little grossed out. Man as I am sitting here starring at this beautiful little hash nugget I can’t help but think about how good hash buzzes feel.

Submitted By: IE420Patient (Member)

Name: Sweet Skunk Hash

From: Apothecary 420 (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: B

Type: Sativa

Price: $25 Half-Gram

Looks: Very sticky … looks like a piece of melted butterscotch or caramel candy.

Smell: Very candy “like.”

Taste: Nothing like it smells or what you’d think by the name. It DOES start of a bit sweet but, very QUICKLY leaves a very strong ash/charcoal aftertaste in the mouth.

Buzz Type: Definitely a hard head buzz – my nose and eyes felt very “heavy”; more so than the top of my head. The feeling is almost as if I was congested.

Provides a very dry mouth … a little numbness in the lips/teeth/gums (am I smoking hash or just rubbed cocaine on my gums!?!?!).

Buzz Length: Medium. Buzz starts to kick in about 5-10 minutes after a good solid hit. I broke a very small piece (maybe half the size of an eraser on back of a #2 pencil) for my hash pipe. The head was heavy for a good 45 minutes – hour.

Overall: Like my review of GDP Hash, the call is still out for me on how I feel about concentrates. It seems like I prefer to use hash as a topper vs. smoking it on its own. As a topper, I like how hash provides that extra “oomph” when needed; especially when your flowers are not doing the full job for you.

What I am not crazy about is the cocaine-like numbness I feel in my mouth with hash. I wonder if anyone else out there gets that same numbness feel.

There is one positive side of hash for me: I like the fact I can put a small amount in a hash pipe, take a hit or two, put the cap back on my hash pipe and throw it my pen jar. The stickiness of it makes the hash adhere to the screen after that first hit so nothing falls out (even with the top off).

At times, I just need a quick hit due to certain people being around me or I have a just a second to run out of the house, take a hit, and come back in. Hash makes this very easy to do for me…much easier than flowers. –IE420Patient

This weekend Mrs. Chubbs and I are hitting a bunch of collectives in L.A. in an attempt to put together a killer hash session. Definitely going to be a fun Sunday. –Chubbs

Grand Daddy Purple Hash (IE420Patient)

Chubbs — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 08:19:22 +0000

Two hash reviews for a proper start to the weekend!

Submitted By: IE420Patient (Member)

Name: Grand Daddy Purple Hash

From: Apothecary 420 (Dispensary – Los Angeles)

Grade: B+

Type: Indica

Price: $25 Half-Gram

Looks: Looks like that piece of gum you stepped on and scraped off your shoe.

Smell: A little bit fruity and spicy.

Taste: Just like it smells but leaves a heavy harsh charcoal like aftertaste.

Buzz Type: Kinda weird when I first tried this. My mouth felt numb. Aside from that, the buzz was immediate. Get ready for some serious “Droopy” eyes after inhaling some of this! This one can couch lock you.

Buzz Length: I’d say a few good tokes will keep you good for about an hour or so. When I first used this, it was by itself and I really feel into a deep relaxation and I had the urge to put on some earphones and tune into some chill deep house beats.

If using this as a topper on some good quality indica, be prepared to lose track of time and get couch locked.

Overall: This is my first try at concentrates (both using medically and reviewing). Personally, I think I like flowers much, much, better. This might be an “A” grade to those of you who are seriously into hash.

Being a bit adventurous, I topped some of this on my Asteroid one late night as at nights I like getting medicated while the “family” is sleep while tuning the tube to the Poorman and Cannabis Planet TV. Well, I saw a bit of the Poorman which comes on at 11PM and the next thing I knew the clock read 3:05AM! Don’t remember a damn thing I saw. Luckily, these shows always repeat themselves –IE420Patient

Looks like there is quite a bit of plant matter there. But it sounds like it did the job nonetheless.

We don’t generally have a lot of hash reviews. How do YOU smoke it? Solo, topper? Talk to me. –Mrs. Chubbs
