This would be my first time ever trying a Cookies & Gas product and boy was I excited to dive in. Have three di...fferent strains to review in total, starting first with the Kush Mints. The buds arrived looking fresh and healthy, sporting a forest green appearance with darker green foliage throughout and a heavy coating of greasy trichomes, followed by hints of purple and assortment of bright peach orange pistils. Dense but with some give to them, feeling sticky inside and out and breaking up to a tacky kinetic sand like texture perfect for rolling.

Love the way this flower smells and it does a stellar job of representing both parents. Kushy, woody, herbal, and earthy with a sweet minty background. It becomes even more pungent as you're breaking into a bud. Translates accurately to the smoke with flavours of spicy kush, earth, and herbs with a delicate minty fresh taste that leaves the mouth feeling cool after exhaling. Burns perfectly with a greasy resin ring and clean light ash.

Potency is on point with a powerfully balanced high that offers a bit of everything ranging from a stoney cerebral high to a heavily relaxing body buzz. Found myself easily falling victim to a munchie fueled couch lock that rendered me pretty useless for the time being. Definitely catered to more of a late afternoon/evening smoke as it can have a significant burnt out effect in larger amounts.

Rockstar smalls

Cultivated by : West Coast Exclusive

Sourced by : @jercanna4

One of three West Coast Exclusive indicas I'll be covering this time around, beginning with these fiesty little Rockstar smalls. Also available in mediums and large buds. Tiny in statur...e but more than make up for it in character. A nice vibrant mix of greens and purples with good trichome coverage. No larf and very little extra stem or foliage as they are pretty neatly trimmed. Decently sticky for such little popcorn nugs and they are very well cured too.

Nose is a classic sweet Rockstar gas with undertones of earth and spicy kush with the exact same going for the taste, resulting in a flavourful and super smooth smoke with zero heaviness on the lungs. Slow and greasy burning, producing a clean white ash in the process.

Equipped with a super calming heady and physical high that is very chill and laid back but not heavily sedating. Something I've always enjoyed about Rockstar. All the properties of a potent, euphoric, body buzzing, feel-good indica without the instant KO as it's more of slow builder. Great value overall for a clean and tasty gas.

The Real Gas Mask

Sourced by : @jercanna4

I completely forgot about posting this delicious looking batch of The Real Gas Mask by BBF. (my bench was soaked from the snow that... day lol) Good news is I've managed to hold on to the pictures but the bad news is that I must have unknowingly deleted my review notes. I'll try to recollect my experience with this one as accurately as I can however. I'll keep it simple with a point form format this time around.
buds were sticky and perfectly cured aromas and flavours of sweet intoxicating gas with cherry and earthy undertones The first time I've been able to distinguish the cherry pie genetics in a gas mask potent indica based high, lasted a considerable amount of time
(Batch from early December. There is currently a new one on the menu)

Strawberry Diesel

Sourced by : @jercanna4

I've heard good things about this Strawberry Diesel from BBF and certainly would agree after testing it. Scooped this one up for a friend who is... a lighter/casual smoker and she's been very happy with it. I tried some of it as well in order to give it a quick write up and I'll say for a budget option it definitely checks out.

Buds are medium to large in size with a squishy, sticky texture and good moisture level. Nose reminds me of a violator kush in ways. Woody and spicy with an added burst of diesel and hint of strawberry in the background. Taste is woody, earthy, and diesel with a subtle strawberry sweetness. Smooth for the most part, just can't take a huge rip as the smoke is expansive like a haze and can trigger a cough. Burns to a salt and pepper ash, a little heavier on the pepper.

Light to medium potency with effects that are very much sativa hybrid like in nature. Perfect for a functional daytime smoke that won't slow you down mentally or physically. Upbeat and energizing, encouraging you to stay active and busy throughout it's average length course.

Bag Appeal: Dense well trimmed and greasy popcorn sized buds with the smalls, and slightly bigger mediums. This stuff grabbed my attention right away with the huge amount of dark pink/purple hues throughout each bud. This Rockstar is de...cently dusted with trichomes and the buds that are attached to stems break off easily!

Aroma/Taste: Strong and pungent Kush nose with a really nice spiciness to back it all up. I found that there was a smooth translation between the nose and the taste of the smoke. Smoke itself is smooth, clean and thick with virtually no tickle at the back of the throat.

Effects: This batch of Rockstar has really nice hard hitting indica effects, quite possibly the longest lasting I’ve tried so far! Effects begin immediately after exhale and start off nice and easy and eventually dropping you into a heavy sedative state perfect for relaxing, or before bed!

Thanks again to Jer for hooking it up with a birthday package! Will probably receive $10 off of a future order for this review.
