I don't know what kind of ditchweed the guys overseas are making hash from, or what process is used to make it, but over here we have no-shit-lab-tested hash oil that is 60-90% THC. I've been smoking weed for going on four decades and the first time I smoked "dabs" (a.k.a BHO or butane hash oil [butane is used as a solvent to extract the THC]), two big hits and I was way more stoned that had ever been in my life, and that's saying something. Bedtime for me. By way of comparison, the strongest weed I've ever smoked was 33% THC (strongest that was tested for potency, that is - but subjective experience says that it was indeed the strongest).
There's a handful of weed stores around my home (recreational weed is legal and regulated here), and for the most part, most of the sellers don't mess with much sub-20% - and 20% THC is very good. There's one seller downtown who seems to be targeting the lower end market and that store stocks stuff as low as 10% THC. It's cheap, but I don't see any reason to buy it unless I was pretty broke. I don't like to cough, and the cheap shit has to be inhaled so deeply and held so long to get high it's just not worth it to me.
Outside of the US and Canada, it's all ditch weed. USA IS NUMBER ONE!! (When it comes to good weed.)
