Red Lebanese Hash

Internationally, Lebanon has been known for its quality Hash for as long as Hash has been a “thing”. What makes Lebanese Hash different from other hash variations is the way it is cultivated and then allowed to age over one or two whole seasons (4-8 months).

This aging or curing process allows Lebanese Hash to develop very strong spicy and woody notes, along with a smooth flavor.

The red in Red Lebanese hash comes from the natural drying and curing process of the raw cannabis plant – cultivators leave the plants on the field until they’re just about ready, and during this process, they acquire a unique red tint from sunlight, and it’s’ own natural pistils which give off an orange-reddish color. Once the hashish is processed, it is left to dry and properly cure. The Lebanese process of curing hashish is what separates their hash from other regions in the Middle East. Hash is aged for one or two entire harvesting seasons, which can last anywhere between 4-8 months in total. This allows the hash to develop an ideal consistency that is pliable, yet stiff enough to work, and also allows for the hash to deepen its’ aroma and flavors.

The long process strengthens the natural woodiness and unique spicy terpenes found within Lebanese cannabis strains. Contrary to most hashish available globally, Red Lebanese Hash is known for being particularly cerebral in effects, compared to other traditional forms of hash which tend to be more sedating, although it still provides an immaculate body stone and waves of relaxation which are very strong, in comparison to Moroccan hash.
