What is HHZ? Composition, legal status and varieties

Was ist HHZ? Zusammensetzung, Rechtsstand und Sorten

HHZ is appearing in more and more online shops. But what exactly is HHZ, what is inside an HHZ vape and what applies legally? This article summarises the most important facts, objectively and without advertising promises.

What is HHZ?

HHZ is a cannabinoid with its own chemical profile. In disposable vapes it is used as a distillate and combined with terpenes. The terpenes determine the aroma, meaning whether a variety tastes fruity, berry-like or more like classic varieties.

Legal status in Germany

HHZ is currently listed neither in the BtMG nor in the annex to the NpSG (as of August 2026). The legal situation for cannabinoids changes regularly, through new legislation or through additions to the annex of the New Psychoactive Substances Act (NpSG). The current situation always applies. We adapt our range when something changes.

For context: HHC has been listed in the annex to the NpSG since 27 June 2024. Meshflash therefore does not stock any HHC products.

The Youth Protection Act also applies to vapes: they may not be supplied to persons under 18, including through distance selling. More on this on our youth protection page.

What is inside the Meshflash HHZ Vapes?

The Meshflash HHZ Vapes are disposable vapes with the following key data:

  • Composition: 95 % HHZ distillate, 5 % terpenes
  • Fill volume: 2 ml, approx. 600 puffs
  • Nicotine: 0 mg
  • Technology: mesh coil, ready to use

There are five varieties: Amnesia, Cassis, Blueberry, Pineapple-Coco and Watermelon. All five together are available in the HHZ Vapes 5für3 Bundle.

If you are looking for clear fruit flavours, you will find them in the H2 Superior Vapes. For pod systems there are the Meshflash Liquids in 5 ml.

What to look for when buying

  • Specific composition: percentages instead of terms such as “highly concentrated”.
  • Legal information with a date: a statement on the legal situation should name the law and the date.
  • No promises about effects: reputable providers describe aroma, variety and content.
  • Sales only from 18: a shop without an age limit is a warning sign.
