Witte de With

Quite difficult to spot as it's on the basement floor of one of the buildings on the Witte de Withstraat. It looks a bit dark from the outside - and so it is - but the light wooden seating and plenty of space inside do a good job of brightening the place up. There's a small selection of quality weeds and hashes. I bought a gram of Citral and two grams of Moroccan 'Super-Hia' hash which was on special offer at only €6 per g. The owner's Moroccan and clearly cares about the quality of his stock - the Citral smelled pungent, tasted like it had been cured well and was covered in crystals. The Super-Hia was a high-quality 'chewing gum' style Moroccan hash that you rarely get to see in these days of mass produced, medium grade pollens. He's also a very friendly chap but can't speak English. Luckily I can speak Dutch and so we had a nice chat about what it's like working in the cannabis trade in Holland. Then I left, with bloodshot eyes and a smile on my face.
