Elephant Stamp Hash

Elephant Stamp Hash

What makes Elephant hash so special is the beginning product that is used: the landrace strains grown in Malana and the surrounding valleys are known for their naturally high THC content and superior resin glands. The cultivators behind this product begin by using fresh or live plants, rather than pressing their hash with dried or cured material – this results in a more aromatic and flavourful smoke in the end. Medium soft to medium hard in texture, this hash makes a great addition to bongs and pipes. A great choice for a pleasant buzz and a relaxing high! Quality hash at a great low price – the Elephant Hash really tramples over its competitors.

What is hash?

Hash, more formally known as hashish, is a concentrate derived from trichomes, the ripe, resinous gland heads that line the surface of cannabis plants. Hash is made by removing the trichome glands from a cannabis plant and repeatedly compressing them to form a hardened, solid piece. It’s one of the oldest types of cannabis concentrates, with historical evidence suggesting that hash was used as far back as the 12th and 13th centuries. 

How to use hash

The most common way to use hashish is to smoke it, either by itself or combined with weed. It can also be orally consumed, although people who eat raw hash often report experiencing an extremely intense, psychotropic high that lasts for hours. For a less intense, more manageable experience, smoking hash is recommended over direct ingestion. Edibles provide much tastier options and are easier to dose than eating hash. 

When smoked, hash produces a thicker smoke than flower alone. Hash made with aged resins are usually preferred over hash made with fresh resins, as it will make the user cough less. This is because older resins have had more time to dry, allowing for moisture content and terpenes to evaporate from the trichome glands.

One of the simplest ways of using hash is to add it to a bowl of flower in a bong, bubbler, or pipe, in order to boost the potency and effects.

Alternatively, hash can be added to a joint and smoked. If the hash is dry, crush or cut it up, then sprinkle it in the flower before rolling it. Hash that is soft and malleable can be formed into a thin line, then placed on top of the flower. Slowly roll the joint and secure the edges. The rolled hash should now be secured in the center of your joint and surrounded by a layer of flower. 

Some people also smoke hash on its own by using two red hot knives to scorch the hash, then using a funnel to inhale the smoke. Dabbing and using a pipe are also popular ways to smoke hash. 

How to restore hash

Dry hash – Dry hash is perfectly fine to smoke and some prefer their hash dry as it creates less smoke when it burns. However, if you prefer your hash to be moist, you can try adding a fresh slice of bread to your sealed bag of hash and leaving it overnight. Orange peel also works too, but there is a chance that your hash will become moldy. A piece of lightly moistened paper towel instead of the bread may also work. 

Hard hash – Hash is often hard when it is straight out of the packaging but will easily become malleable and soft when a bit of heat is added. It can be rolled around using your fingers or gently heated with a lighter. A few seconds in the microwave should also work, but please take caution to not burn it.
