Review

Appearance/Scent 2.5/5

The buds are light and airy with a vibrant green hue and prominent orange hairs. The batch I received was dry, as it was packed a few months before. I’m unsure if this affected the buds smelling like hay. I have read online that this is not uncommon with some Pennsylvania products. If you can get past the hay smell, there’s a hint of lemonade and grapefruit coming through.

I’m giving a 2.5/5 because of the smell. I like my bud to be potent and have that “dank” smell. This did not have that. 

Smoke Experience 2.5/5

Method: Raw paper

The dry buds produced a pretty harsh smoke and quick burn. As for flavor, there were hints of lemonade at the end of some hits, but it wasn’t consistent. It was mostly a burn taste.

The High 3.5/5

The high is the best thing this bud has going for it. It is a creeper with a slower onset. I’d say about 5 minutes after sitting I was overtaken with a sense of euphoria. This was quickly followed by giggles, laughter, and a big smile.  The duration of the high was about 40-45 minutes. Overall, a very heady/spacey high with uplifting effects. A solid sativa-leaning hybrid. 

Recommendation: Maybe

I would love to have been able to try a fresher batch of this. The effects were decent, but everything else was lacking.
