I used easyjet. Paid about £75 for the flights, hotel was £75 for 3 days aswell. £150 for 3 day trip ain’t half bad. My mate came on the coach last time for about £30, but it took fooking ages.

Thats a hard question. I have got most of my favourite hashes from Damprking/Tweede Kamer - Riffman Christmas special, Sharazade Sunrise and Habbibi. But recently they have let me down and so I have turned to Papilion/De Graal/Club Media. And they have to good shit. :D

It was great. I was surprised when quite a few people said 'I bet your looking forward to going home as its so cold.' I said not at all, the freeze made the trip even more memorable.

Amen to that. The guy in Anyday had a nice milky way sized chunk, one of the locals picked it up for a look and pretend to eat it. :D

Trying to finish day 2 now. Be up in the next hour or tomorrow.

Graffiti:

Image

Hugo De Groot – First time for me in this buy and fly shop. Good, friendly service – let me have a good look at 4 strains before choosing.
1g Lemon Haze E11 – zezty lemony hazy goodness. Best lemon haze I've had in Dam for 2yrs. 8.5/10
Image
Image
Image
3g AM G13 E12 – all 3 of our group grabbed a gram when he opened the box, so the smell was a crowd pleaser, taste was good but smell didn’t transfer completely. 8/10
Image
Image

Frozen Canals
Image
Image

1E Hulp – second time here, first time I've chilled. I will be back to go through the menu.
Image
Image
1g Dulux Cream E6.50 – my mate said can I have a gram of...and pointed to the top of the hash section of the menu. Little did he know it was upside-down and he had got the cheapest. Surprisingly it was really nice with a nice taste and buzz. I need to check other hashes next trip. 7.5/10
Image
Image
1g Super Silver E10 – My mate enjoyed this alot 8/10
Image
.5g BHO E27.50 – The guy got it out the fridge, look interesting so I grabbed a half g. I've smoked oil in the UK twice, but it was awhile ago so I cant really compare. I couldn’t tell how much higher I got from it but I was completely baked at the end of the night, bit of a novelty but worth it on holiday. 8/10
Image
Image
Image
.5g Chocolope E4.50 – cant remember and no pic

Image
Image
Image

Paradox – Really different atmosphere to most shop, quite classical music in the background. Really peaceful and a nice bit of calm from your usual cs. Good service from older bloke. Fruit smoothies are good:
Image
.8g Finger Hash E12 – I was told this is collected from the gloves of the farmers after harvesting. He said he gets golf ball sized lumps. Mmm golf balls. It has a very rich intense smell when broken, almost incense like. Taste was good and it gave me a really nice fuzzy smiley buzz. 8/10
Image
Image
Image
1g Kandy Kush E13 – really not very good, very weak flavour – I didn’t finish my spliff. 6/10
Image

Grey Area – much better product than the last two trips. Everything else I looked at looked shit.
1g T-lite E14.50 – very sweet almost synthetic smell that slightly transferred to the taste. 8/10
Image
1g OG18 E14.50- Yum yum yum, nice og flavours. 8/10
Image

Utopia
1g Citreonella E13.50 – This stuff wasn’t good! After all the recommendations on here I was hoping for a lot better. No taste at all and I thought there was a strange dust on it. 5/10
Image
Image
.5g ice-o-lator E10 – cant remember this
Image
Image

Voyagers
Image
2g Kaligria – repeat purchase

Ducks on ice
Image

GreenPlace – (I might have got confused when labelling these two, one was good and the other wasnt)
1g Tahoe Buddah OG E14 – Not as nice as last time but the taste was nice. Not very strong.
Image
1g Silver Cheese E13 – terrible, lacked everything.
Image
Image
Image
1g Twizzla E13- nice oily Maroc. 8/10
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

RLD

Brootje Bert BLT eaten sat in a boat on the frozen canal. Fooking epic sandwich.
Image
Image

Back to the hotel then on the tram to:

Cafe Lootje for a buttery steak. Top quality. Thanks for those that recommend it.
Image
Image

Club Media
1g Champagne Haze – repeat purchase
Image
Image
1g Lemon Skunk – didn’t have a zesty lemon smell but a very subtle more like a skunky lemon cheesecake or lemon curd. Subtle taste and nice warm stone. 8.5/10
Image
Image
1g Hindu Kush – repeat purchase .it was mostly dust but still nice.
.5g Silver Bubble Haze – no pic. No info

Back to the hotel
Smoking Lemon and Honey

Great report and lovely pictures.
sorry you didn't like our citronella, as I said on the thread I thought it a little too dry and so has a tendency to go a bit dusty in the bag. Just out of interest did you try any of our other weeds?
All feedback is appreciated and will help us to keep our menu where we want it to be.

Outstanding :mrgreen:
Twizzla looks lovely :mrgreen: loving the sound of the Lemon Skunk :mrgreen:
disappointing to read that GP may have fucked the Silver Cheese though, here's hoping it was an underpar :? batch
