Amsterdam cafes or "coffee
shops," to use the correct term for marijuana cafes, have long been deemed
a ganja smokers paradise.
Cannabis a.k.a. "Marijuana" and hashish or "hash"
are legally for sale in designated coffee shops. These shops have various
other slang terms they go by such as " hash bars," "pot cafes" or "hash
cafes." Sorry they don't give out free samples.

Marijuana can also be obtained at the Amsterdam Medical Marijuana Institute,
however you must pick it up in person at the medical institute where you
can also obtain unbiased marijuana facts and medical information .
The coffee shops are rather extensively regulated by the local Netherlands
governments whereby cannibis can only be purchased from "coffee shops" (shops
that sell of course coffee, food and other unique beverages) however if a
coffee shop chooses to sell cannabis, it is not allowed by law to also sell
alcohol nor are coffee shops allowed to overtly advertise the smoking products
and prices for sale such as you would see in an alcohol or cigarette advertisement.
Nevertheless you won't find many legalization of marijuana rallies or votes
on medicinal " Proposition 215 " equivalents (the California proposition
legalizing marijuana for medical use).
REFERENCE NOTES:
- cannabis \can-na-bis\ n
: the technical name for marijuana, also used in most Netherlands coffee
shop legal language. Cannibis is used by smoking it in cigarette form or
in a pipe or water pipe, it can be eaten, mixed into other foods such as
in brownies recipes ; other slang terms for marijuana include, chronic
- weed - reefer - ganja - bud - buds - kind bud -joint - dank - doobage
- doobie - dope - grass - green - sticky - herb - L - indica sativa
- pot - spliff - blunt - mary jane - hydro - hydroponic - thai weed
- thai stick - wacky weed - wacky tobaccy - funny cigarettes - Acapulco Gold
- haze - sensimillia - hemp ;
- thc n : an abbreviation of the word tetrahydrocannabinol , the
active chemical in marijuana and hashish "hash" that produces the desired
euphoric effect or , which drug education literature calls "a false sense
of well being." (Insert your own jokes here). Also a synthetic (man made) version of thc is the active ingredient in the pharmaceutical medicine Marinol .
- hashish n : a
handmade (or machine made) product that comes entirely from the marijuana
plant. Usually made from the flower portion of the plant which contains a
high content of the active chemical thc. The flowers contain a sticky residue
or resin which is collected in a variety of different methods typically by
"grating" it or "sifting" it over a fine screen or cloth of sorts. The collected
residue is then pressed into clumps that resemble clay, except darker
and a little more firm. So hashish in theory is the same as marijuana
except purer and with a higher and more concentrated levels of the
active chemical thc. However there are some "boiler room" operations (meaning
not trustworthy) who make their hashish by grinding up the whole marijuana
plant, pressing it together and calling it hashish. This type of hash may
actually have less thc content than just plain marijuana, because it would
contain all of the main stalk and stems and seeds of the plant, and maybe
even the roots and some dirt. Hash comes in many different types and colors
. Similar to marijuana people generally smoke it with a pipe or water pipe,
but you can also eat it and bake it into a brownie. Other terms for hashish are, hash - blonde hash - moroccan hash ;
