During the CC in November there were differing views on GSC. TwoCanucks swore it was top notch stuff, but others such as Omnibuzz and myself were put off by the name. Omni in particular took great exception to the way strain names are going, GSC being a prime example.

"fukkin girl scout cookies, fuck that I'm not buying shit called that" or words to that effect.

For €15 a g it might as well be calked "Cookie Dough" or doh!

To be fair, I'll probably try some in the next couple of days. :mrgreen:

And the way you can tell if a strain is real , well for me anyway is if I have intimate knowledge of said strain

I don't rely on CS weed lmao , half the shit you get sold in Dam ain't real , enjoy
But dude, this is my point. So there's a debate going on about what the "real" GSC is, and as in your words nobody who doesn't have an intimate knowledge of the strain (the real "real" one) can tell if it is real anyway, and given that Funky Munkey was the only CS in Amsterdam selling something with that name up until very recently so nobody in the city has much to compare theirs to.... well doesn't all that make it incredibly unlikely that anyone would remotely be able to say whether its the "real" GSC or not? So unlikely as to make the question kind of pointless (as it is with almost any strain in any Amsterdam CS, or anywhere else for that matter). Its all just labels anyway.

What's important in this context (outside breeding circles anyway) seems to me to just be how any strain, however it is labelled, tastes and smokes, and whether it is good value for the price asked. At least people can answer those questions.

Yeah my point exactly , a lot of people can buy particular strains from growers direct so you know exactly what your smoking , personal growers I imagine have grown GSC that live in Amsterdam/Holland , then you can make your judgement pretty precisely when offered something your being told is something but is not !!??

Connoisseurs perhaps lol I'm ripped lmao SkywalkerOG ftw

Either way I will prob be sampling some come my next trip :wink: :lol: :lol: :mrgreen:

was here on my last trip for the first time...

I wanted to try their Girl Scout Cookies and their Tahoe OG...
Tahoe was not on the menu so I tried the GSC.
What can I say about this strain??? One of the smoothest smokes
I ever had but there was no taste for me :shock: really like no
taste! Even the smell of the buds was like nothing... only when grinded
up you get a hint of a smell.

I didn´t feel an effect, too (ok maybe I smoked too much that day :P )

So for me it was nothing to die for... maybe a bad batch...

The shop itself was pretty nice but I didn´t liked the atmosphere there.
Mostly locals but some of them were not so friendly to non dutch :lol:

Thank you for your honest opinion.
I found this to be the case as well, the same for Grey Area's GSC as well. It should be cause in my opinion they obviously are using the same distributor or at the very least, the growers are using clones from the same mother.
15 Euros at Funky Munkey, 13 at Grey Area... neither are worth the price.
Time for this batch of GSC to be made into hash or tossed into the bin... a total disappointment. :(

Right let me put this Girl Scout Cookie thing to bed.
It's shit. End of. Don't waste your time or money. I had it first spiff of the day and left it in the ash tray. Just pretend it's called Power plant....

Other than that nice place to chill. Or play pool if u can be arsed with it.

Little tip. Ma House just round the corner is open till very late3-4am and does killer chicken burgers for £3.50. They will try n put ketchup n mayo on the burger though. Wtf?

Picked up one gram of what i think was called sour rapture for 13e/g - typical sour/og flavor, nice enough but a bit sticky.

going back to try some silver LA which looked quite nice, but i only had money for 1gram with me.

The SSH for 13euro a gram looked amazingly frosty

Had some of the GSC from here when I was over in Febuary, seem to remember enjoying the smoke but not the vibes in the cs, people were arguing over the music choice to which the budtender responded shouting over everyone rather aggressively 'This is Ja Rules favourite song, you obviously don't know shit!' we left fair soon after this, killed the buzz.
