Hash holes — also known as rosin donuts — are a premium type of infused pre-roll that combine top-shelf cannabis flower with a concentrate core, creating a donut-like burn pattern that melts the hash as you smoke. STIIIZY breaks it down beautifully in their guide: hash holes aren’t just joints — they’re engineered for flavor, potency, and experience.
🌪️ What Is a Hash Hole?
A hash hole is a joint with a worm-shaped sliver of concentrate (usually live rosin or hash rosin) placed in the center of the flower. As the joint burns, the concentrate melts slowly, creating a rich, terpene-heavy smoke and a signature “donut” burn pattern. STIIIZY’s version often includes live resin and kief coating, pushing THC levels to 40% or more.
🧪 Understanding Extraction: How the Hash Gets Made
To appreciate hash holes, you’ve got to understand the extraction methods behind the concentrates. These videos offer a deep dive into the science and craft:
- Cannabis Extraction Options
This video walks through various extraction methods — from water-based to hydrocarbon — and explains why solventless options like rosin are preferred for hash holes due to their purity and flavor retention. - Cannabis Extraction Process and Lab Testing Challenges
Offers insight into how extraction labs select material, refine concentrates, and test for potency and contaminants. It’s a great look at the quality control behind premium hash. - Water Based Extraction of Cannabis
Demonstrates ice water extraction, a solventless method used to make bubble hash, which can be further pressed into rosin for hash holes. This method preserves terpenes and avoids chemical solvents.
🧊 Best Concentrates for Hash Holes
STIIIZY recommends using solventless extracts like:
- Live rosin
- Hash rosin
- Cold cure badder or budder
- Kief (as a coating or additive)
These textures are ideal because they’re malleable, flavorful, and clean-burning, making them perfect for the center of a hash hole.
🔥 Why Hash Holes Are Blowing Up
- Flavor Complexity: The melting hash adds layers of terpenes and depth.
- Potency: THC levels often exceed 40%, delivering a dab-like effect.
- Craftsmanship: Rolling a hash hole takes skill — it’s a flex in the 710 community.
- Visual Appeal: That donut burn is iconic and Instagram-worthy.
Whether you’re rolling your own or picking up a STIIIZY infused pre-roll, hash holes are a celebration of solventless extraction, flower quality, and cannabis culture.
