Smell:
Banana and citrus soda caught my attention first, and a hint of sweet pineapple.
Look/Structure/Breakdown:
Big, incredibly dense buds coated in trichomes. Dried to a nice consistency for joint and blunt rolling, (but traveled from Denver to Seattle so it deserves some grace on its current dryness. It was stickier when I first got it, and there’s a clear difference between keeping it in a plastic zip lock bag, and the original medication/pill bottle from Eclipse.
Flavor:
Caramelized bananas and fruit, but I noticed marshmallow like sweetness on the exhale.
How it smokes:
The smoke is heavy and dominates the palate and can be cough inducing if you get too comfortable and might not be for the newest of smokers, my friend couldn’t hang on these bowls.
Effects:
Head high that I felt in my face within the first 3 hits. Cheeks, eyes (lowered and dryer eyes), temples, and forehead is where I felt it the most. Arms and fingers got a little heavier, and I typed a little slower. Transitioned to a relaxing body high that lasts throughout and is really pleasant. The high is long lasting in both the head and body, so make sure you don’t have anything to do after smoking this.
Thoughts:
I truly wish I had written this review while I was in Denver, but I waited too long AND after I traveled with it. So, it did effect some of the quality as far as it being dry. I was impressed by the amount of keef that was left in the grinder, it makes for a harsher smoke but will get you stoned.
The head and body highs are strong and last a while. Don’t smoke this if you have plans later in the evening, you won’t want to make the effort to go.
This was my first-time purchasing cannabis from Snaxland, and of the 5 cultivars I tried this one was #4 ahead of Hardcore OG.
This is a good smoke for pain relief and calming/relaxing your mind after a long workday or week. Too much of this will leave you in the couch and might put you to sleep if you’re already tired.
Pairs well with:
Staying in
A movie or show you need to catch up on
A cold beverage and the couch
