Afghan hash is a type of hashish, which is a concentrated form of cannabis made by collecting and compressing the resin glands (trichomes) of the plant. It originates from Afghanistan, a country well known for producing some of the highest quality hash in the world, especially in regions like Mazar-i-Sharif and Balkh.

This hash is usually dark brown or black on the outside, with a soft, sticky interior that may become harder over time. It has a strong, earthy and spicy aroma, and is known for its high potency due to its elevated THC content, delivering a powerful, relaxing body high.
