All across NYC, cannabis lovers are sparking up their favorite strains in a variety of ways. The classic mainstays of smoking have always been joints, bongs, pipes, vapes, or dab rigs. But, these days, cannasseurs are rolling up hash holes aka “donuts” to create the ultimate luxury smoking experience. At Torches NYC, we carry brands like MFNY who are also crafting their own in-house hand-rolled hash hole pre-rolls for the real smokers of the city. Now the question arises: what exactly is a hash hole? And, who has the best hash hole in NYC?
In a general sense, a hash hole is an infused pre-roll, but it’s so much more than that. The OG method of infusing a joint usually includes running some sauce along the paper. Or, you may traditionally drop chunks of BHO, hash, or rosin into your joint before rolling up. Creating a hash hole is a completely different experience that can get pretty decadent depending on your technique and materials.
Follow along with Torches NYC as we answer all the pressing questions any canna-curious consumer may have about hash holes. We’ll go over what a hash hole exactly is, how to roll one, and how to properly smoke it and avoid runs. If you want to see any of the hash hole products we currently have in stock, visit our online menu. Keep in mind that product availability varies.
What Is A Hash Hole?
A hash hole is a premium infused pre-roll that features a line of live rosin running through its center. Live rosin, a solventless cannabis extract, is made by applying heat and pressure to fresh-frozen cannabis or bubble hash, preserving the plant’s natural terpenes and cannabinoids. To create a hash hole, the live rosin is shaped into a snake-like line and placed in the middle of ground cannabis before being rolled into a joint. As the joint burns, the live rosin melts, creating a “donut” effect that delivers an even, flavorful, and potent smoke.
How To Roll A Hash Hole
To roll a hash hole, grind your flower and spread it evenly across a rolling paper like a blanket. Warm a glob of live rosin in your hands, shape it into a thin snake, and place it down the center of the flower. Carefully roll the paper into a cone shape, hugging the live rosin with the surrounding ground cannabis. Add a glass tip or corn husk filter so you can smoke it all the way to the bottom.
How To Properly Smoke A Donut
Don’t ash the hash hole! With so much live rosin burning in the center of the donut, you don’t want the flower on the outside to burn faster than the rosin within. The rule of thumb usually when smoking a fat hash hole is to let the ash build up on the top. As you keep smoking, you may need to keep the donut in a more vertical position. But, allowing the ash to keep stacking on top will stop the rosin from burning too fast in the center. This will give you a more even smoke down to the bottom, and prevent major runs in the paper from the flower burning too fast. It’s ok if you eventually have to ash the hash hole once it’s past the halfway point and most of the hash has burned through.
