Hash Cartel’s products often feature rich terpene profiles and are crafted to preserve the natural essence of the cannabis plant.

Producing hash typically involves extracting the resin glands, or trichomes, from the cannabis plant. Here is a basic overview of the process, though the specific methods and techniques can vary depending on the producer:

### Hash Production Methods

1. *Hand Rolling*:
– *Collection*: The resin is collected by hand, typically by rubbing the cannabis plant.
– *Rolling*: The collected resin is then rolled into balls or sticks.

2. *Dry Sifting*:
– *Screening*: Cannabis buds are sifted through fine mesh screens to separate the trichomes.
– *Collection*: The separated trichomes, called kief, are collected.
– *Pressing*: The kief is then pressed into hash using heat and pressure.

3. *Ice Water Extraction (Bubble Hash)*:
– *Freezing*: Cannabis plant material is agitated in ice water, causing the trichomes to freeze and break off.
– *Filtering*: The mixture is filtered through progressively finer screens to separate the trichomes from the plant material.
– *Drying*: The collected trichomes are dried and then pressed into hash.

4. *Solvent Extraction (e.g., Butane Hash Oil)*:
– *Solvent Use*: Solvents like butane are used to dissolve the resin from the plant material.
– *Evaporation*: The solvent is then evaporated, leaving behind a concentrated resin.
– *Purging*: The remaining solvent is purged from the resin to ensure purity.
