Sitka - Lebanese Red Hash - 1g
Lebanese Red is a traditional dry-sift hashish from Sitka known for old-world pressing, a rose-and-spice aroma, and a heavy, full-body indica effect. This is hash the way it has been made for centuries, not a modern extract wearing the name.

Genetics & Lineage
Rather than a single strain, Lebanese Red is sifted from a blend of indica varieties hand-selected by Sitka's hashmaster for body-heavy effect and bold, smooth flavor. The style honors Lebanon's red hash tradition, where cured resin develops its signature color and character.
About Sitka
Sitka is a California heritage hash house devoted to old-world methods: dry sifting, hand pressing, and careful curing, with a terpene-preservation process of its own. The result is full-spectrum resin, malleable rather than crumbly, with the steady burn hash smokers prize.
Flavor & Aroma
The aroma runs to roses, warm spice, and lavender; the taste is bold, complex, and remarkably smooth, with that unmistakable cured "hashy" depth no modern concentrate replicates. Pressing and curing the sift is what unlocks it.
Effects
Onset in 1-5 minutes when smoked, a deep, warm body peak at 15-30 minutes, then a slow 1-2 hour ebb. This is a heavy, old-school stone: settled, physical, and unhurried.
Best For
- Traditional Lebanese-style hash in San Francisco
- Topping a bowl or rolling a snake into a joint
- Watching the bay go dark from Rincon Park
- Smokers curious what cannabis tasted like before extracts
Dosing
A pea-sized piece crumbled over flower is a full session; if you dab it, keep it to a grain-of-rice at low temperature. Cured hash burns steadily, so a little lasts.
Storage
Cool, dark, and airtight; the fridge extends its life, and the pliable texture recovers at room temperature.
