I'm starting to think I'm older then most of you
when i was a younger teenager in the mid '70's circa 1974 ...something special came around and i've never seen it since ... it was RED hash oil ... Deep Red & translucent with thick viscosity Hash Oil ... incredibly fragrant ... the way we used it was to put some on aluminum foil and heat it w/ a lighter from underneath & it would slightly sizzle & then inhaling the vapors w/ a straw , or an empty Bick pen body ...this is called "Chasing the Dragon" it had a unique quality in that the subsequent vapor would EXPAND in your lungs so you had to be careful and take less then you would think , or else
This was Hash Oil that underwent an Isomerization & made by underground chemists & if you dont know what that means please look it up..
Sh*t was DANK ... the rush was amazing
The older you are the less you would find anything of quality especially hash oil. By 1968 it started to show up in my area(Bay Area) but the quality was not the best. Any that lived out in the burbs never saw it.. By 1975 red or yellow oil was around but rarely was it available. 95% of hash oil was black. Some even had a green tinge. Supply and demand, whom ever wanted to pay the big bucks for red oil got it. Most of us did not bother with it. I got a better high from flowers anyway. I preferred the taste from flowers.
