Moon Rock
Also known as: Kurupt's Moonrock, Kurupt Moonrock
Overview
Moon Rock is an infamous take on the classic Girl Scout Cookies strain, where the nugs are dipped in hash oil and then rolled in kief. The journey of Moon Rocks into the limelight is inextricably linked to West Coast rapper Kurupt (Ricardo Emmanuel Brown) and his partner Dr. Zodiak (Daniel Laughlin). Around 2014, Kurupt and Dr. Zodiak began marketing their version of Moon Rocks, catapulting the product into a wider public consciousness. They commercialized Moon Rocks and branded them, with Kurupt's Moonrock becoming a flagship product. Moon rocks are extremely potent cannabis products made by combining marijuana buds, hash oil, and kief. This combination results in a product with very high THC levels, leading to a much stronger high than traditional cannabis.
The manufacturing process involves a high-quality cannabis bud, often a dense, well-cured nugget from a high-THC strain. This bud forms the core of the Moon Rock. The next step involves the bud being thoroughly coated in hash oil, a concentrated form of cannabis that is sticky and rich in THC. Hash oil significantly amplifies the potency of the bud. Once the bud is coated in hash oil, it is rolled in kief. Kief, or pollen or dry sift, is a collection of the resin found on cannabis flowers. These glands contain the cannabinoids and terpenes that give marijuana its effects and flavors. The kief layer adds another level of THC to the Moon Rocks and contributes to a more complex flavor profile. Moon Rock buds are round and lumpy, coated in bright kief and dripping with hash oil.
