Hash Explained
Hash, or hashish, is a cannabis concentrate made by collecting and compressing the trichome resin glands (the crystal-like structures on cannabis buds). Traditional hash-making methods include hand-rolling, dry sifting, and ice water extraction. Modern ice water hash (bubble hash) is made by agitating cannabis in ice water to separate trichomes, then filtering and drying them. High-quality hash is the starting material for premium rosin production.
