? light green buds completely caked in trichomes .. compressed a little from shipping. A couple burnt leaves visible but that's the only flaw in these nugs. Good density but still pliable ... ? excellent moisture level, good snap, a bit of stickiness busting it up, stuck inside the grinder .. kinetic sand consistency when grinded .. very nice
? very pleasant and fairly loud Icing, doughy, sweet and delicious.. honestly these terps make me salivate ?.. grinded up just a bit louder
? excellent translation of terps to smoke .. consistent taste burning down..
? very even, smooth, small oil ring.. stayed lit a long time after I put it down for a bit! Very clean ash. Excellent burn on this one
? for how smooth it was, I didn't think it would hit hard.. but a nice head high.. uplifting.. feeling real nice
Overall quality: 9.2
Value: 8.5 (200 oz)
First experience with 819 and honestly I'm impressed. The terps and smoking experience on this one make it super enjoyable for me ? ?
? compared to the most impressive of baby yoda drops (left is Nov batch, right is the best previous batch from spring 2021... still have some left!), its clearly a... colour difference. I always found the colour of the previous batches unusually lacking in green, and instead they were almost dark brownish colour and covered in amber trichomes (hence the heavy sedation effect). This contrast made the trichomes stand our even more. This new batch is equally as caked in trichomes although the distinctive light green backdrop along with whiter, less degraded trichomes stand out less.
? as nice as previous hyped batches were, one department i felt they lacked in was stickiness and this latest batch definitely made up for that. Beautifully cured but retaining much of the sticky goodness.
? 2nd thing even the best previous batches fell short on imho was a strong nose. Understated citrus minty kushy goodness is how I would describe the predecessors. Again, this batch addresses this nicely with an amplified version of Khalifa terps as I knew them before .. with even more of the kush terps which I love ?
? perfect translation of terps from nose to smoke... as I knew with previous batches ... amazing ?
? thick smoke, white ash and small oil ring. Super super potent smoke .. had to ease up and even butted out my spliff for a break part way through. Smooth but super dangerous.. not for novices
? prepare to become complacent, forgetful AF... and just super relaxed .. potency is the word
Overall quality: 9.5
Value: 8 ($60 Q)
The only thing that would make this a 10 for me is entirely subjective in the terp profile. Call me old-school but my favourite ganja always smells like a skunk or rubber fumes etc.. personal preference!
As compared to the best of previous batches, I personally prefer this one for its:
stronger nose
more prevalent kush terps
better retention of stick
The visual striking appeal of the previous batch may wow some but is less important to me
? nice big, frosty nugs... got a Q which came as two kolas. Classic pink bud structure, more frosty than your typical pink. Clearly this is a fresh drop which is important to me.. it hasn't been squished in shipping, structure and trichomes in tact
?... excellent cure... crisp exterior, sticky and greasy busted up. Rolled one up and it all stuck together immediately.. careful not to roll this one too tight!
? classic pink nose, could be stronger out the bag.. but busted up it gets super loud with some rubbery notes that I enjoy
? smooth even burn and smooth smoke but clearly with potency and that bit of lung tickle holding it in .. some peppering in the ash but overall a nice clean burn
? excellent translation of pink terps to smoke... it has the flav, potency, but smoothness that makes this the kind of pink I very much enjoy
? hits hard! Only smoked about a 3rd of the spliff (taste was consistent throughout)... put me right to bed like a proper pink should. Heavy relaxing high
? Caked and beautiful visual appearance as you can see!
? nice firm crisp exterior, some stick. Breaking apart, nice snap, even moisture and stickiness ... excellent cure ?
?mouth watering candy like ? nose on this one, some rubbery subtleties t...hat sends me on a trip .. reminiscent of 90s hydro. Can't stop sniffing this one once you get a wiff! Busting it up makes the already loud aroma even stronger ?
?? clean even burn, some peppering and a small ring of resin.
? the spiciness implied by the namesake drink is strong in the flavor, not barely present in the nose. More subtle background translation of terps to smoke
? got me nice n high on only part of a spliff I burned ... good potency
