Smell:
This cultivar smells soooo good. Fragrant orange smell from the Tropicanna Cookies, with cardamom, a little ginger, earthiness, and light mint. I didn’t smell much chocolate in this one, but the refreshing orange spice smell is what I kept opening the jar for. I’ve had Trop Cookies before and this had some of that same intense orange smell. The smell does transfer to flavor, which made for a nice smoke.

Look/Breakdown:
Light to Dark green leaves that are covered in trichomes and bright orange stigmas. There is some purple in the buds, but I noticed it closer to the stem. Christmas tree shaped nugs that are dense, and tough; they won’t be broken up with just a thumb and pointer finger. The ripe orange smell intensifies once broken up with a little mint and gas.
From the orange smell to the look of being dusted in sugar, it’s a high end smoke that is grown to it’s fullest potential and quality.

Flavor:
The taste of sweet spiced orange forward and after. Some spiciness in the middle, with mint starting to assert itself about midway through the bowl. I could still taste orange, well after smoking the bowl.

How it smokes:
Light and flavorful. Great smoke in the morning or before an activity. I smoked two bowls before a jog, and it provided great energy and focus throughout, without feeling winded; afterwards I jumped rope for another 20 minutes after that, and still had plenty of energy. Very smooth orange flavored smoke that didn’t make me cough. 

How it smokes:
Light and orange flavored smoke that didn’t make me cough. Great smoke in the morning or before an activity. I smoked two bowls before a jog, and it provided great energy and focus throughout AND afterwards when I jumped rope for another 20 minutes after that as well and was breathing well. 

Effects:
I didn’t feel the head high intensely in any one area of my head or face, it’s a relaxing and focused high that is pleasant, plus on the euphoria. I didn’t notice any munchies or a desire to eat any food. My eyes did get drier without redness or my eyelids lowering. Introspection and internal conversation did increase with this one

Thoughts:
I’m familiar with Trop Cookies after smoking the version from Premier Cannabis (winner of Cannabis Cup in Seattle 2019). The orange and cardamom flavors were great, and I enjoyed smelling the jar and smoking the weed; I would frequently open the jar just to smell the orange and spice. If you enjoy cannabis with this orange smell profile, you will enjoy this one and the ability to be active after smoking it.

Pairs well with:
– Going for a walk, jog, or run.
– Running errands
– Doing work
– Writing, drawing, or a creative outlet

Why? Both smelled so good I opened the jar more times to smell it, than to get a nug to smoke. Sweet ripe citrus forward cultivars that weren’t heavy, and allowed me to focus and get work and content completed.
