I smell the jar quickly after opening it so the smell won't escape. I notice a slight hue of limonene zest behind a potent peppery caryophyllene that blossoms upon the bud being broken up. I wish I had superpowers so I could see the essential oils of the terpenes bursting through my grinder with each twist. I don't. Also, I don't taste a lot of limonene. The pepper isn't overpowering as I expected it to be. It’s a more tip-of-your-tongue numbing pungent. At first, I don't notice a lot of flavor on the back of my palette either. I close my eyes and try to turn off every sense but taste and smell. Waiting until the smoke settles I do notice there's a lingering taste of hoppy lemon. A final wash of flavor. I would say this strain isn't overpowering on taste. Another good light option that doesn't hit like a burning skunk. Taste like a good smooth smoking easy toking weed.
Speaking of good weed I think there is something else worth mentioning concerning this strain… the cannabinoids.
I noticed this strain has some CBC and CBG in it. CBCA increases a natural cannabinoid in the body called anandamide which has been referred to as the bliss molecule by modulating the rewarding mechanism of the brain. I am all about bliss. Couple bliss and CBG energy together then add the pain and inflammation management with caryophyllene and humulene with the uplifting terpenes limonene and linalool and I’m excited to load a couple more bowls before I start my day.
Note: I let these sit for a while and read them over later in because I am bad at editing. I do have to say that 20 minutes after a couple of bowls I am in a good mood.
I use cannabis as a mood enhancer. A bullshit meter reset. When I consume my meter goes from overladed and not wanting to deal with anything to zero and ready to smile and continue about life as a happy productive member of society.
I'm a veteran and had terrible dreams last night. I woke up disturbed. Now I feel like I'm smiling on the inside. I spend the first hour of the day wondering why there is so much violence in my heart that it comes out in my sleep. Then I smoke some quality cannabis and I'm settled in a pleasant mood.
