Hashish is a derivative of hemp that is obtained from its oil or resin. Its use is as old as the world, Herodotus tells us that the people of Iranian origin called “Scythians’ took psychotropic steam baths because the water vapor contained cannabis.

The prohibition that for years managed to criminalize its consumption aroused the curiosity of a French doctor and resulted in the first scientific work on drugs. Dr. Moreau “suggested the use of hashish to cause laboratory psychosis.”
