hash

hash
n
hashish (cannabis resin). Hashish from North Africa, the Middle East and the Himalayas is the most widely used form of cannabis in Britain, especially among white smokers, while grass (herbal can-nabis) is more common in the USA. This shortened form of the word was probably the most widespread term in use among British cannabis smokers in the early 1960s. It was then largely supplanted by more colourful terms such as charge, shit, dope, etc.
► 'Hash smoking is now a widespread so-cial habit, almost in the same class as whiskey and soda.' (Letter to Oz magazine, June 1969)
