Smoke Report - Sharan Coffeeshop, Enschede
Posted: Sat 16th Oct 2010 07:37 am
Hi all,
I visited the Enschede yesterday on the way home from work to pick up some goodies for the weekend, and was yet again pleased with my purchases from the coffeeshop Sharan.
This coffeeshop is not the biggest or the most comfortable to sit in, but the weed and hash are both top drawer. And the budtender weighs the weed out in front of you, which means you can smell and look at the product before buying, which is not always the case in provincial coffeeshops.
I have bought from here many times before, but generally stuck to the Amnesia Haze, which for €9 per gramm, is amazing. Yesterday I bought 2g of this, plus 2g of their Superskunk, and 1g of their Super Maroc.
Well, I tried all 3 last night in front of an open fire with or lovely cats roaming around, and I wasnt disappointed with any of them. The Amnesia smells soooo strong of candy, and has a strong tang of Chewits, mixed with with Mango. A beautiful smell, and a fantastic taste, which lingers long after exhale. The high of the Amnesia is soaring, and at times disorientating, but it really does hit the spot. Perfectly grown, dried and cured, and a steal at €9 per gram.
The Superskunk is also surprisingly strong for such an old school strain, and stinks on opening the bag of...wel...Skunk! The taste did not quite mirror the smell, but for €7 per gram, this is one Sativa in Enschede which is not to be missed.
The star of the night though, was the Super Maroc. I have been a big hash fan for about 10 years now, and am always on the lookout for oily, sweet, sticky, shiny hashes, and last night I found the Holy Grail.
This hash is the stickiest hash i have ever handled, and has a bouquet of mint, pine, cinnamon and the aroma of the Maroccan hills. I could rip the small piece i had apart, and reform it like blutac, and the oil coming of it was intense...how much I hear you ask? €7 per gram!!!!!! The taste was classic, and I was BATTERED after a small spliff. Stronger even than the Amnesia this one, and it knocked me out completely. I am off back to stock up on this today, as we are having a tasting party at NYE and this is a great contender.
All in all, a successful purchase. I love finding great weed and hash outside Amsterdam, and am a big fan of exploring the provinces for gems like this one.
Maybe I will leave Amsterdam for my NYE purchases and stick the the provincial shops...What do you lot think? Should I concentrate on finding the best non-Adam dope for the forum?..
Anyway, sat in bed on a misty Dutch morning, with the corn outside my window being chopped down right now. Amnesia has been rolled, coffee is made...Man, i love living in the Netherlands.
