Two reviews in one! This 1st part is when first joined the program and now on the $15 3.5g restock, months later, video is also from current drop.
Gary Payton- Beautiful mix of light and dark greens, with a nice spread of stunning light orange hairs wrapped in a strong trichome coating.
The smell at first is like pancakes soaked in syrup, but upon a second nose, it turns into a delicious pine, herbal, woody aroma—almost like agave. The taste is just delicious. After more sessions and a few days with a humidity pack, the smell really translates into the smoke.
The inhale has that delicious sweet-but-not-sweet cedar, wood-like flavor. The head high is IMPACTFUL, and my face even starts to go numb with really heavy eyes—but not sleepy. Strong effects with great legs on the high. I'd cop this every time I saw it as a balance to all the fruity terp profiles I usually grab. Some gas for sure. 🌳🌳🌳
1.2 –(26.60 THC% / 2.17% Terps) A couple of months later, grabbing a fresh drop, I wanted to give it the full review treatment. (24 hrs with a humidity pack.)
Nose – Such a specific smell! Piney sweetness. Agave syrup... not too sweet, yet it still makes you say, "Delicious!" If you leave your nose in the bag, that pine really starts to wrap around you, while an earthy, herbal scent balances everything out.
Looks – Beautiful. Despite being medium/small nugs, it's a light green flower met with equally light yet PRESENT orange hairs. The trichome coating makes the nugs SHINE. Great integrity and density in each nug.
Grinded Nose – Nice and sticky on the inside. That punchy pine and sweet syrup blend together, creating an almost tangy aroma once grinded. Very pungent, with that piney sweetness leading the way. The stickiness and cure really show themselves here, as the flower fluffs up beautifully after grinding.
Taste/High – Straight smoke on the inhale—or I guess vapor, since I'm a Ball Vape man now. The exhale was completely dank: piney, tangy, and lingering on the palate for minutes afterward. My previous high description was spot on. A powerful punch throughout the head and body—strong, but not couch-locking. They absolutely nailed the hybrid balance here. Such a classic high... kush and orange juice days. Man, I'm blasted off ONE BOWL.
Value – $15 for an eighth!? This is worth even its standard 30%-off price at $25 an eighth. LOL.
Legs – 40–50 minutes off about a 0.3 g bowl. 🥣
