Sorry mate but you never , they may have called it that but I can guarantee it wasn't , due to conflict in the area no hash has been exported for years so unless it had been in storage for years I highly doubt it was real red Leb

Try Bluebird and Kashmir Lounge, Kashmir Lounge had red lebanon on the menu in july'11.
Real or just named as? I don't know. But it was not on former menus!

i´m not sure about that. i´ve read, that there is a heavy increase in the cannabis production in the last years again!

No there hasn't there are families making it again but certainly notfor export , do you mind if I ask where you read it ? Cause I read something too

I just can't remember where but the gist was yeah they are making it but not for export and very secretive so I would imagine it would be nearly impossible to find even in Lebanon
As someone has mentioned there are Lebanese plants getting grown in Morocco so I presume that's where it's coming from so really not the same

A coffeeshop in Groningen sells some decent-tasting Yellow Leb, but I haven't got many years of experience in smoking hash, so I don't know if any of the "Lebanese" I've sampled over the years has been the real deal. Any chance it might be? It's a decidedly different smell and texture from any Moroccan hash, with a crumbly, powdery consistency if not heated (gets a little stickier, malleable with heat), and is more potent than most Moroccans. Never seen any Red Leb on any menu here, only the Yellow (Gele Libanon).

i got the yellow lebanese in leiden last year and that was absolutely not worth the smoke. it had nothing to do with an yummy oily red leb.
hope i get some more (actual) recommendations!
