What's a Dutchie?

This is an excerpt from a newspaper article.
"Have you ever done a Dutchie?" the girl from Holland asks, holding my gaze.

Well, as a matter of fact, there was a time, back in the '70s, on a skiing trip in Switzerland, when it might have happened, but ...

"No," I reply, hoping to sound resolute. I have never done a Dutchie, and I'm not going to do a Dutchie now: at least, not this Dutchie.

I remember a pop song from way back in the 80s to the title "Pss the dutchie from the left (or right) hand side", the Dutchie referring to a joint.
