We got so much great feedback about our last Hash deep dive we realized that there’s a lot more left to hash out! In The Top Hash Varieties: A 2024 Guide we want to share with you our experiences on the best hash in Canada’s legal cannabis market has to offer.
As you know from our last article on the sticky black (brown and blond) stuff we are huge (UUUGE) hash fans at Stok’d. Our first and flagship Scarborough location, Stok’d Clairlea is well known for its vast selection of hashish. That said, our locations Cliffside/Spliffside, Eglinton East and Niagara Falls are stocked with great hash too.
Hash is oleoresin made by compressing and processing cannabis buds or any other part of the plant material where trichomes appear. It’s more potent than flower, however it can deliver a more mellow high than other extracts. The best hash goes back thousands of years to ancient India where cannabis first appears in the Hindu Kush mountains (mmmm Kush mountains 🤤).
Hash can come in different colours and extraction formats. Historically, different parts of Asia and Africa were/are home to various hues from golden brown (or “blond”) in the Middle East to brown in Morocco to dark brown or black in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Northern India.
Joints, bongs, pipes, vaping devices, poke a few holes in a pop can (10/10 do not recommend unless that’s all you have) or a 2L coke bottle and some hot knives, etc.
As you may already know, especially if you read our Hash 101 Article, hash comes in different forms. We’ve done our best to round up the best of all varieties in the Canadian legal market.
Our great friends over at HashCo do one thing and one thing only: create the finest hash and kief available to Ontarians! If you want to learn more about these OGs, check our recent interview with Amy “Anonymous” Brown. Here are the 3 products of HashCo we can’t recommend enough:
2g of classic Gold Seal Hash
1g Single Source Kief
1g of Gold Seal Hash, 1g of Blonde Hash
If you’re looking for some killer, solventless extracts, BIG is a great place to start. From the same team that brings Muskoka Grown flower, comes BIG’s Black Hash. This Afghan black hash will bring back the kind of old school memories hash aficionados will adore. Comes in 3g packs.
Quebec hash masters Nugz have hit the hashpot with Old School Hash. Create those little hash snakes, sprinkle into your joint or vape and get lit af with Nugz Old School Hash. Comes in 2g balls of gassy, hashy goodness!
Nugz Flash Frozen Hash Rosin definitely slaps! Or as Nugz would put it:
“Nugz Slapz Fresh Frozen Hash Rosin (FFHR) is made from beautiful, frosty, trich-covered Slapz flower, frozen immediately at harvest to preserve the flowers natural terpene profile, flavours and aromas. Slapz FFHR is then made by sieving the frozen premium grade Slapz flower through 159µm to 73µm wash bags in ice water to produce a bubble hash that is then gently heated and pressed into a honey-like rosin. Lookin’ for the hash rosin that slaps back? Nugz Slapz! Best stored in the fridge and brought to room temperature 10 minutes before use.”
Produced by Bloom House Cannabis, this dry sieve hash product is made from cannabis grown in living soil. Available in Ontario in 2g packs.
Sometimes in the jazz musical jamboree that is the cannabis industry, you have to let your bandmate’s cook! So we’ll just leave it to the hash-obsessed folks at Tremblant to tell you about their Afghan Black Hash:
“Inspired by the timeless tradition of Afghan Black Hash, we process quality inputs using artisanal techniques to produce a truly refined expression of this iconic hash recipe. Our premium kief is extracted through a traditional dry sift method, and then slowly roasted for over 17 hours to achieve the maximum potency and flavour. Soft and malleable, while intensely spicy, pungent, and aromatic, our Afghan Black Hash is then pressed to perfection and hand-packed into a premium glass jar for a truly elevated experience.”
And sometimes you have to go with the people to let you know what’s what. Here’s an exchange from Reddit that breaks down MTL Cannabis West Coast Kush Hash better than we ever could:
MeltedGlands: This looks like it’s just classic brick hash. I’ve seen lots of stuff like this for years way before legalization or rosin ever became a thing. They just use a bit of heat to melt some glands and pressure to press the trichome heads together. That’s why it looks the way it does and it has some activated ∆9THC.
Since part of the process is using heat and pressure to burst the trichome heads to get the brick to stick together and the rosin process is literally the same concept but with a filter to separate the oils that come out from the burst heads i guess you could say it’s rosin mixed with kief in a sense since the heads did burst and some oil did come out of it and it is now mixed with kief since it wasn’t separated out. You could also say the same thing about a blowout while pressing bubble hash into rosin though. For one it’s an achievement, but for the other it’s a failure.
So although in some ways they are similar, this isn’t exactly rosin mixed with kief. If it was, it would look different and it would have most likely been shaped into a ball and sold as some sort of rosin infused “temple ball” instead of just hash. This is just some good old fashioned brick hash as far as I can tell. “the texture is that of a snickers bar”
Parking-Potential-19: That’s good. That means it was made with a decently clean pile of quality trichomes. Hash gets harder based on how much plant material is there so lack of it naturally leads to a softer hash. Sounds like you got some good stuff.
Did you know you can eat hash too? Well you can, thanks to Rosin Heads! Their motto is “In Hash We Trust” and we stand in stoner salute to that! 🫡
“To put it simply, Hash Rosin is the finest type of cannabis extract that exists. We would leave it at that, but there is much more to the story. Every Rosin Heads drop is a collaborative artwork. It is the culmination of the artistic expression of the grower, the hash maker and the chocolatier. Hash Rosin is produced by harvesting cannabis plants at peak resin maturity, separating the resin from the plant material, then applying heat and pressure through filtration to extract the active compounds…Each Piece of Rosin Heads chocolate is infused with 10mg of Strain Specific Orange Tingz Hash Rosin (73-159 Micron), because let’s face it Hash Rosin makes everything better.”
It does Hash Rosin, it really does 🤤
Ok Dank Craft, you get on with your bad self! Sometimes you want the hash preparation done for you, especially if you’re out with friends, puffing on one of King Koko’s Bubble Hash Infused Pre-Rolls.
“Our “KING KOKO’S” Bubble Hash Infused Pre-Rolls are cold-milled in a German-made precision miller and then mixed by hand with some beautiful, solventless King Louis OG Bubble Hash. The result is one of the strongest joints in the market, using only natural ingredients, and rolled to ensure an even burn. We pack our joints using an inner carton to ensure no broken or bent joints.”
Joint Craft and Triple Eh!™ bring an exciting hash product to the market and deserve a mention in our Top Hash Varieties Guide 2024. They use a solventless process to produce their hash and coming from the North Okanagan in BC, you know the flower they use is fire.
Before we conclude Top Hash Varieties Guide 2024 let’s see if we can answer some of the key questions that are asked about buying hash online in Canada. Warning: curious Internet behaviour incoming
If you want to order hash online then check out Stok’d 1-hour delivery service in Scarborough or Niagara Falls.
Same answer as above, Internet.
Back in the day, like before legalization, a few websites offered the ability to order weed online. Then through the power of our national postal service, a package of cannabis would (most of the time) arrive in your mailbox in a few days. These days you can buy hash online from any number of websites including Stokd.ca.
It’s not arrogant if it’s true so we’ll go ahead and say Stokd.ca
We wrote an entire article called Where To Buy Hash, in which we also get into the various types of hash and such.
Now Internet it seems like you’re just asking the same question in different ways. Oh well, yes you can find hash online in Canada at Stokd.ca
We haven’t seen any Nepalese hash on the Ontario legal market but there’s definitely some great Afghani Black Hash as well other ball hash like Tremblent.
Whoever asked this question is a straight shooter and we like it! Let’s see if we can break down the answer: a) Yes you can buy hash in Canada, legally since 2018 b) If you live in Southwestern Ontario you can buy it from Stokd.ca. If you live somewhere else we’re sure your Google search will get you where you want to be.
Is the name of popular cannabis dispensary in Kelowna BC. Otherwise don’t know the answer to the question “Cheebas Cheebas?” Sorry Internet 😬
Yes?
Ok now it just seems like you’re repeating yourself. Have you been drinking, Internet?
Well you can buy it online but you understand the hash isn’t in your computer right? Right?!
Yes.
Don’t you wish you get to hear those words at the next Blue Jays game? “Fresh, sticky hash for sale!” Maybe one day there will be a dab bar at the Skydome?
More like hash on the line ammitrite? Jk that doesn’t mean anything.
It’s possible you’re having an acid flashback, you may want to lie down Internet.
Either a black market website site with some questionable reddit reviews, a Hip Hop artist or the name of our company cat. #2truthsandalie
You don’t mean veggies from Whole Foods do you? You mean the lettuce, the leaf, the bud, the flower man! Buy greens all day at Stokd.ca – damn we just rhymed that 🥳
You may not be shocked to learn that it’s Stokd.ca
If you’re in the Scarborough or Niagara Falls area then we highly recommend you stop into a Stok’d location or hit us up online.
