Smell – WHOA the smell. Two worlds here: One – pre grind, in bud form – the smell from the bag is immediately strong, pungent, dank, fruity, and primarily lemony/citrusy. Two – post grind – this is where the magic happens. The smell is EXTREMELY fruity, VERY sweet, with a significant sourness in the background to it, and honestly it smells EXACTLY AND PRECISELY like when you open a box of Fruity Pebbles cereal. No joke. That’s just exactly what it smells like ground up. Strong strong smell. When I opened the bag my roommate was at my door (I’m at the whole other end of the house) within minutes telling me to take that shit outside. Ha!

Taste -Again, WHOA. This may be this strain’s finest hour. I expected lots of sweetness and fruit, and it has that in droves. But when smoked, at least to my palette, the sourness comes more forward. In a really really good way. It balances the sweetness and brings a serious complexity to the fruit element. Where upon smelling in the bag it seemed primarily lemony, and upon grinding primarily fruity/sweet, upon smoking I got all kinds of specific fruit notes. Lemon for sure. That’s the strongest flavor but not overwhelmingly so at all. Well balanced with a combination of a decent amount of orange, a little grape, a little grapefruit, a little peach (!), and maybe a tiny twinge of apple even, although that may have been my wishful thinking. The taste to me was much much more complex than I thought it would be.
