Kief

The simplest concentrate

Kief is the fine, sandy powder that comes off cannabis flower. It’s made of trichomes, the tiny resin glands that cover the buds. When dried flower is sifted over a fine screen, the trichomes fall through and collect underneath. That’s kief. Nothing else is done to it.

Ours is sifted from our own flower. It’s pale gold to light green, soft and powdery, and it comes by the gram in a glass vial with a screw cap.

What it’s like

The pack says 30% THC, which is a step up from most flower. Kief adds a stronger, richer hit to whatever you put it on, and it’s known for coming on quick.

The smell and taste change from batch to batch, because they come from whatever flower went over the screen. One batch might be earthy, the next sweet or gassy. Ask us what’s been sifted lately.

How to use it

• On a bowl: sprinkle a little over the top of the flower in your pipe or bong.
• In a joint: add a pinch along your flower before you roll. Or brush the outside of a rolled joint with a little oil and roll it through kief. That’s how our Lunar Spliffs are made.
• Pressed into hash: with heat and pressure, kief presses into hash. It’s the traditional way Moroccan-style hash is made.

Keeping it fresh

Keep the cap on tight and store the vial somewhere cool, dark and dry. Kief is light, so open it away from fans, open windows and anyone about to sneeze.

Other ways to get kief

Our Moon Rocks are whole buds dipped in oil and rolled through kief, and our Lunar Spliffs come coated in it. If you’d like to skip the pressing, try our pressed hash: Gold Seal or Blonde Lebanese.
