 \nIt's the same as all the legends of the Wild West: always blurred, always changing, always alive.<\/p>\n\n<p>But one thing's for sure: \nevery time you hold a block of <a href=\"https:\/\/wildwildweed.ch\/en\/categorie-produit\/cbdshop\/pollen-and-hash-cbd\/\">Wild Wild Hash<\/a> between your fingers, \nyou're holding a piece of their history. \nA trace of their laughter, their chaos, their genius.<\/p>\n\n<p>The Dalton's may not have been saints.  \nBut their creations... well, that was great art.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76ce510 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"76ce510\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f72eeb elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"3f72eeb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ww-seo\">\n  <p class=\"texte-blanc\">\n  Inspired by the legend of the Dalton's, our \n <a class=\"texte-blanc-bold\" href=\"https:\/\/wildwildweed.ch\/en\/categorie-produit\/cbdshop\/pollen-and-hash-cbd\/\">Wild Wild Hash<\/a> \n range brings together the finest resins and artisanal pollens from \n <strong class=\"texte-blanc-bold\">Swiss CBD<\/strong>. \n Golden Pollen, Lebanese, Moroccan or Charras: creations crafted according to tradition and prized in \n <a class=\"texte-blanc-bold\" href=\"https:\/\/wildwildweed.ch\/en\/categorie-produit\/cbdshop\/\">CBD shops<\/a>. \n For \n <strong class=\"texte-blanc-bold\">hash CBD<\/strong> enthusiasts looking for a resin with character, the Dalton's spirit lives on in each hand-crafted block.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-89f8931 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"89f8931\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dd0c421 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"dd0c421\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"www-disclaimer\" style=\"font-size:0.85em; line-height:1.3;color:#aaa; border-top:1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.1); padding-top:12px;\">\n  <p>\n  The stories of Calamity Weed, Sitting Bull, the Dalton brothers, Sheriff Blackwood and the Wild West Chronicles are all fiction.  \n  Any resemblance to existing or former persons is purely coincidental.  \n  These stories serve only to enrich the narrative universe of Wild Wild Weed and do not describe actual historical facts.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are stories that are told around a fire, late at night, when the mountains fall silent and only the embers light up the faces.
