In 2020, European authorities

of hashish,

the concentrated resin
made from marijuana plants.

That number may seem high,

it's a drop in the ocean.

The business of hash smuggling,
once a sleepy pastime,

has gone full throttle.

It's a black market generating
billions of dollars each year,

increasingly concentrated

in the hands of just a few
organized crime families.

corner the market

Hash was my first connection

in Portugal in 2001.

BARBARA: Double this would
maybe be a gram, five euros.

MARIANA: Double this

two and a half euros only?

MARIANA: Kirikita.

The "kirikita" he refers to
is an imported marijuana strain

known in the West as "critical,"

which features
sky-high levels of THC,

the compound that gets you high.

In the 1980s, hash produced here
from local marijuana

had an average THC content
of 8%.

MARIANA: Drugs come

(man rapping in

MARIANA: Unlike the marijuana
smoked in the West,

which is actually just
the flower of the plant,

hashish is the result
of a labor-intensive process.

It begins with plants
that have been dried

and covered
with plastic sheeting.

And then the drumming begins.

(beating)

The goal is to rattle
the plant enough

to release its trichomes,

glands resembling tiny hairs
which contain THC.

MARIANA: Oh, hashish powder.

So from all the huge amounts
of plants and flower,

this is the end product.

So this gets pressed
into these molds

and makes basically the bars.

MARIANA: This is what makes it
all the way all across Europe

and the rest of the world.

I have no reason to doubt these
farmers are telling me the truth

is being made

much further up the food chain.

make from driving drugs?

MARIANA: $3,000 each?
MAN: Yeah.

MARIANA: It's no different

The farmer has produced
a kilo of hash for $1,000

at relatively low risk.

Now, as the product
changes hands,

MARIANA: I'm sitting with
a woman known as El Cisne,

"The Swan," who heads
a hash distribution network

that stretches from Morocco

to the far reaches
of northern Europe.

MARIANA: These bricks of hashish
are merely samples.

Buyers interested in the product
will likely be ordering

not by the kilo, but by the ton.

(bubbling)

MARIANA: ¿Sí?
LE CISNE: Sí.

MARIANA: Wow.

EL CISNE: Sí.

MARIANA: Sí.

MARIANA: No.
EL CISNE: Sí.

MARIANA: 60 tons
is a staggering amount.

In northern Europe,

the value would equal
nearly half a billion dollars.

MARIANA: If what she says
is true,

and the hash barons
have found a way

to securely move
shipping containers of product

into Europe,

there's no end to the profits
they can make.

It's no wonder they've been able
to push the small players out

and corner the market,

and hardly a surprise that
they're now willing to kill

to preserve it.

EL CISNE: Sí.
