The difference between charas and hashish is that hashish is made from a dead cannabis plant and charas is made from a live one.

Different qualities of charas sold in the Himalayas – Super Cream vs Cream vs Junglee Charas

Hello Ents,

Love you all. Long post.

I have been meaning to make this post for a long time but couldn’t make it for 2 reasons –

Firstly it’s not often that I have all these types of hash together.

Secondly, even though I think this is an educational post but I also think it’s borderline stash showcase and the only reason I stopped posting all this stuff is because of the No stash showcase rule.

Here I show you three different qualities of charas sold in the Himalayas –



Strain – Green House seed company White Widow (Pure Indica)

This type of hash is just pure trichomes harvested from properly dried and cured buds with almost 0 plant material. In order to get trichomes, buds have to be bone dry, you lightly break up the buds and shake them over a 150-micron sieve very lightly and collect trichomes. Make sure that you dust the buds over the sieve ever so slightly so that minimum plant material goes thru. Never do this collection process in a hot environment, do it in a cold AC room if possible. It really helps if the buds are cold. Yield is usually 8 to 10% of total bud weight. After collecting all the kief/trichomes, you need to beat the kief to break up the trichomes and bring out that oily/gooey goodness. For small quantities, I usually mix my kief with a bit of warm secret spice tea and beat it with hammed until soft, or for large quantities, I use a small meat grinder and grind kief thru it 6 or 7 times to break down the trichomes and mash them together into this gooey super cream. It changes color according to temperature. when cold it’s brown and when warm./hot it’s brown/black.

This hash you see here is made from pure organically outdoor grown Green House seed company White Widow harvested in December 2021. Dried and cured for about 6 months and left to be processed and smoked off-season 2022.

Grow Location – Punjab.

Taste – It tastes very good but I have always been a fan of hand rub cream. This particular strain tastes sweet and very citrus. Classic white widow.

Touch/Feel – very sticky goo. sticks to your hand and it’s hard to get it off. the black stains you see on the paper are from this super cream. if you rub it between your fingers, it almost melts into an oil. If you burn it bubbles like a full melt and burns like smack.

High – Proper Indica. This is what you smoke when u feel like dying. Once you are in a couch lock it fucks with your brain. Hits you like a train wreck. Green house seed company White widow is one of the strongest indicas I have ever smoked. After smoking this you can’t do anything. It just makes you put your back on the bed. You cant smoke it every day or it will make you mad. I have seen people get 102 fever after just smoking one joint. Normally, almost always, everyone loses their car keys around my house after a joint. Good for watching movies or other rabbit holes.

Selling price in the valley – Priceless. Give whatever it takes to get it, if you ever find it.


Strain – Rashol Heirloom. (Sativa dominant hybrid)

Charas or often called Cream is the first-hand rub of fresh live buds. Call me old school but this is my everyday go-to smoke. The cream is always rubbed from fresh live buds. Resin is collected by gently rubbing the buds between your palms. Once you rub buds carefully and very gently for about 15 minutes, a thin coating and small dots of black resin start sticking to your palms and as you keep on rubbing more buds for long enuf, in about 40 minutes your palms are completely black with this shit. Those are my times, but everyone has their own rubbing time some people take 15 minutes to rub half a T and others can’t do it in 2 hours. Mostly done in the early morning to avoid the sun, as yield is best if plants are not hot/warm in direct sunlight. Veterans always take the plant in shade and rub in shade after properly cooling the plants. This is a really really early harvest at the start of August 2022. Rubbed and cured for almost 35 to 40 days in cold temps. before reaching me.

Grow location – Rashol Valley.

Taste – It’s the first rub from off-season plants so the taste is just a bit raw but any kind of Parvati valley goodness is heaven.

Touch/Feel – It’s very creamy, just melts in your hands at room temperature.

High – Very potent, good Sativa, makes you do shit but you always feel that lethargy of that 25% indica that’s in there. Rashol hash has always had that sativaish energy about it that I love. Good for creative work. All the artists absolutely love it. My friends who play the flute, guitar, drums, and other instruments always buy this stuff.

Selling price in the valley – 4k to 10k a tola depending on the quality and scam.



Strain – Mandi district.

This type of hash is always made from plants grown at lower altitudes or in plains. When In season, it is mostly hand rubbed and when off-season, its mostly beaten down and pressed dried buds. This charas comes from lower areas of Himachal and recently, I have seen this type of charas come out of UP and Orissa area as well. In season, low-quality buds are rubbed very hard so that lot of plant material sticks to the palms and increases the weight and decreases the whole effort and manhours needed in making charas. In the off-season, old bone-dried buds are sieved through a large screen usually 300 to 400 microns. and collected kief is pressed into bricks using a machine press or pressed into sticks using hands and wrapped with cellophane and transported. due to bad storage and transportation, you would often find bits of white mold in it sometimes.

This charas we have here is probably the third rub from Junglee off-season plants in Mandi Jungles.

Taste – Good, Tststes a bit harsh to the throat due to lot of plant material but Its good for those off-season dry months when nobody is making any fresh stuff.

High – Always depends on the type of plants, sometimes jungle can be very good and sometimes just shit.

Selling price in the valley – 2k to 3k a tola depending on the quality and scam.

Edit – taking pics and uploading them is a bitch, if I upload pics on reddit than it doesnt let me post a lot of text with it. Please do see the pics it took me long time to take em.
