What are moon rocks and What Is Moon Rock Made Of? Moon Rock Weed is  generally made from a nug of weed dipped in butane honey oil and then rolled in kief. Moon rocks are also known as caviar, probably because of its expensive price tag and rarity. This is a unique product that is usually only seen on the internet and rarely ever in person. The combination of the three products certainly sounds wonderful, but does it live up to the hype? The price of a Moon Rock Weed nug will set you back $30.

Moon Rock Appearance 

Pre-Crack

At first, the caviar looks like nothing more than a massive ball of kief. Upon closer inspection, you can see traces of golden brown hash under the layer of kief. You can also see evidence of a stem based on irregular shaping. Mostly, it looks like a big hunk of kief which isn't the worst thing.

Post-Crack

It does not take much force to break the Moon Rock Weed open. It crumbles rather easily into manageable pieces. After breaking the caviar open, a whole wealth of magic is revealed.

Moon Rock Smell, Taste & Smoke

Smoked alone, Moon Rock Weeds are a truly awful experience. The taste is primarily of butane and the smoke is pretty harsh. If you choose to know How to Smoke Moonrocks natural, be prepared to endure heavy coughing fits. The butane can prove to be a mess. It may melt into the bowl creating a mess of gooey resin which could clog up your bong. Also, be prepared to smoke what you light up because the hash will continue to burn in the bowl.

Moon Rock Overview

Moon Rock Weed are a specialty item. Some may say they are a waste of bud, kief, and hash. Regardless of how it smoked, the hash is infamous for clogging up a piece and tasting like dirt. On their own, the three components are gold. It seems quite the experiment to combine them in such a fashion - a true #dankenstein. Since butane hash needs to be dabbed or otherwise superheated, combining it with an herb that is meant to be burned, causes problems. Likewise, you can’t dab bud Purple Moon Rocks Bud or kief.

You might be better off picking up a quality eighth for the same price, but on the other hand, you might be someone who enjoys the taste and effect of caviar. They certainly look delicious, like little truffles filled with goodness, and they are legendary in the industry. Overall, they aren't really practical to smoke but will get you really high (to the moon) really quickly, and should be tried at least once by every smoker.
