Long weekend nov 4th - 6th
Posted: Mon 7th Nov 2011 11:14 am
Nice ckeeky long weekend I booked pretty much as soon as I got back from Amsterdam in June. was unsure what to expect as have never been at this time of year (latest previously was start of september) with the weather and with it being a couple of weeks before the cannabis cup. Well as usual I was pleasantly surprised. Weather was as good as I could have asked for being november and although I didnt smoke as much as it was just me and my girlfriend, everything I smoked was good and didnt smoke anything that I thought was under par.
Left home for the airport at about 3am on friday morning and finally got in to the air only a few min late (on a flight that is running on time when the ticket says gate closes it should mean gate closes). Anyway landed about 9am local time and was greeted by a cloudy, breezy but dry Schipol. Got to Central station and after sorting out tram passes headed straight to Voyagers.
Voyagers
Never been to this coffeeshop before as they were closed for the refit in june when I was in town. First impressions are good, sat in a nice comfy window seat with the sun shining through the window, also two young coffeeshop kittens playing near the door provided plenty of amusement. for voyagers i purchased 2g of the Kandy Kush and 1g of the Kosher kush, Both were very nice lovely sweet Kushy flovour with the Kandy kush didnt seem knock out strong but was good for late morning smoking (i'm an early riser) The Kosher kush i thought was very interesting Not quite such a heavy kushy flovour and a much fresher and weedy flovour the cure on this was spot on nice and dry buds but just sticky with oil still, yum yum.
Grey area
Not going to lie Grey area is one of my favorite coffeeshops, on this trip I bought
1g of the strawberry sour diesel which had a lovely flovour on the inhale and then left you with a sweetness on the exhale,
1g of exodus cheese which it isnt, its certanly a decent cheese but its not exodus smelt pretty funky in the bag and was much better than the usual bbc.
1g quaze haze 100% sativa as expected not a great deal of bag appeal here taste was very nice spicy and woodsy with a nice strong heady high.
1g og18 very nice my favorite bud of the trip amazing flovour with nice heady high knockout smoke.
Rokerij
I really like the Rokerij chain of shops in general, sometimes the quality isnt great but the atmosphere of the coffeeshops is great this time i did numbers I/III/IV i think number 1 is still my favorite out of all of them.
1g AMG very nice bud good bag appeal didnt smell amazing in the box but when you pulled the bud apart you got a lovely citrus smell form it a nice cure on this too
1g Super silver haze again another very nice smoke great smell and flovour to it, had this on my last day and found it to be good for a long session as i didnt find it too couchlocking and kept me active.
other coffeeshops were visited but no other purchases were made, couple worth noting though, Dolphins - never been here bofore but i like it sat downstairs on the comfy sofas
Paradox - went for the first time in june and it has to be one of my favorite coffeeshops had a cheese and ham tostie and a chocolate chip cookie which were both fantastic and pretty reasonably priced.
overall what a beautiful way to spend a weekend
