For me, THE best hasj in the city center (and some of the best in the 'dam) is at BABYLON!

I agree the Bushdoc's Maroc Ice is PERFECT and the Afghan Ice at the Doors tastes like pure Afghani from days-gone-by. But if you want the REAL Maroc go to Babylon... the guys that run it COME from Ketama and are incredibly gracious and the prices run around 8 euro a gram for soft, squishy, fragrant and powerful hasj. Visually bland smoking area but the vibe more than makes up for it. And it's hidden under EVERYONE'S nose!

I agree the Rifman is nice but SOOO overpriced. You'll find as-good hasj in Dutch Flowers, de Graal and any number of shops for several euro's less a gram.

We'll be there December 5th... one of our first stops fo' sho!

Is it just me or is there no reviews for Babylon? Just wondering if i'm missing it somewhere.

I'm always on the look out for some nice hash so will probably swing by when I'm over at the end of the month. Do you recommend Babylon to sit and chill or buy and fly HasjDreamer?

Hey Happy... I'd recommend a sit & chill; don't let the bingo parlor atmosphere deter you! The staff are SUPER cool and if an Ajax game is on the telly it's even better. The coffee is great and the prices and product are (at least for the centrum) IMPOSSIBLE to beat!

It used to be called, I think, KINGSTON and recently changed to the rather inappropriate BABYLON (lol).

Let us know what you think! I know there's a menu shot on Fly-By-Night's website.

As I smoke hash about 95% of the time in the UK I very rarely hunt for it whilst in the dam and will concentrate on the weed :P
However I will be looking to try some that will knock my socks off when I venture back in 2 weeks..
Years ago I smoked oil and that was amazing so I'm gonna try and find something oil like or jellyish..
Just need to try and get through all the reviews and find something so I'm not hunting about and wasting valuable smoking time :shock:

Not the best with directions, I'll have a look on the maps and try and find my bearings with it.. What's best, jelly, terminator or ice?
Thanks

Bhageera next door to Basjoes had killer concentrates.
They had both pure Casey Jones and a La Con hashes in August.
Expensive but they sell it in many different sizes.

Nice Iko, we'll be staying virtually next door to Bhageera and Basjoe... BUT I tend to find the pure's a bit too much for my taste! I tend to enjoy the journey as much as the destination and lean towards hq Marocs and Lebs. Of course, point me in the direction of a pure Afghan and I'll RUN not walk!

The Bagheera menu was updated thanks to Highly Blessed, he's now at Hotel/Coffeeshop Voyagers and has updated the menu there, I dont know if Bagheera have kept the newer stuff (If HB sees this he can comment).
