Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

I've heard on some forums that the cannabis cup's a waste of time, on others that it's fantastic, and from locals that its a "fucking nightmare. its crazy time, you cant move." So I'm going to see what the winners and runners up are like, some of which I've probebly already tried. Anyone who's smoked any of these or been to a cannabis cup is more than welcome to comment, ok heres the list:

2007
G-13 Haze - Barney's - smoked in a pre rolled twice, both times was good they use unchlorinated papers for the pre rolleds and both the ones I had had a good hazey taste and a nice happy haze fog.
Chocolope - Grey Area
Super Silver Haze - Green House United



2008
Super Lemon Haze - Greenhouse United- Smoked in a pre rolled. Not a very good taste but pretty strong, might have to get a gram to compare to other super lemon hazes
Utopia Haze - Barney's
Chocolope - The Green Place

2009
Super Lemon Haze - Green House
Vanilla Kush - Barney's
Head Band Kush - The Green Place


2010
Tangerine Dream – Barney’s Coffeeshop
Super Lemon Haze – Greenhouse United
L.A. Cheese - The Green Place

2011
Liberty Haze – Barney’s Coffeeshop- Got a gram of it. Wow this is a nice one, possibly my new #1 haze. clear taste, strong long lasting euphoric high
Hawaiian Snow – Greenhouse United
Buddha Tahoe - The Green Place

2012
Flower Bomb Kush - the Green House Coffeeshop very nice looking buds, covered in trichomes and a perfect kush look. peppery kushy smell and a good kush taste
Shoreline - the Green Place Smoked it, this shit is STRONG but the taste not that good
Evergrey - the Grey Area


I've smoked super lemon and super silver from other places, are the ones at GH usually better or would my money be better spent at Boerejongons for these strains, where theyre I think less than 10 p/g?

I think I want to try Flowerbomb kush, liberty Haze, Hawian Snow, Tangerine dream and L.A. Cheese at least, anyone got any views on these?

Boerejongens' SSH and SLH are 9,50 and 9 per gram respectively. Also, there is often a nice SSH at coffeeshop Central for 7,5 p/g. I see no reason to spend 14,50 p/g at Greenhouse.

2007
G-13 Haze - Barney's - g13 x hawian haze, was amazing in the past, normally is complete shite now. although i randomly went in while cycling past this morning, it's the nicest i have seen it in the last 6 months so i grabbed a gram, still not worth it for the 15euro i was charged and nothing like the old days.


Chocolope - Grey Area - over rated strain(although enjoying some right now, but not from GA)

Super Silver Haze - Green House United - Never a fan of GH, but love SSH

2008

Super Lemon Haze - Greenhouse United - very popular
Utopia Haze - Barney's - been better in the past
Chocolope - The Green Place - over rated strain(although enjoying some right now)

2009
Super Lemon Haze - Green House - very popular
Vanilla Kush - Barney's - never saw the appeal
Head Band Kush - The Green Place - not as good as the real headband


2010
Tangerine Dream – Barney’s Coffeeshop - overrated but nice enough
Super Lemon Haze – Greenhouse United - popular
L.A. Cheese - The Green Place - loved this so much

2011
Liberty Haze – Barney’s Coffeeshop - overrated but nice enough
Hawaiian Snow – Greenhouse United - never seen a batch i wanted to buy
Buddha Tahoe - The Green Place - never had it, had enough tahoe OG in my time.

2012
Flower Bomb Kush - the Green House Coffeeshop - smells better than it tastes
Shoreline - the Green Place - lovely taste, reminds me of some of the fruity pebble type US strains
Evergrey - the Grey Area - it was ok

i have never attended a CC, but i know people that have and they all agree with the locals, it is a nightmare and a tourist trap

thanks guys, I still want to try tangerine dream and flowerbomb kush, I hear good things about tangerine dream all the time from friends in the states and I think it's only fair I try last years cup winner if I get the chance lol

elastic and orle, either or both of you up for a T&T today? I'm free till around 7ish then my friend should be arriving at centraal and I'm going to meet up with her and show her to her hotel.

i jsut need to head out to a post office, then i will be floating around. got a dutch number yet? or a bike!

I'll PM you my dutch number now, still without a bike but got an ovi card! I'm slowly getting the things I need lol

Get down to waterloo and grab yourself a 70euro bike( or just stand around and wait for a junkie bike) they are the best way to travel

and you never attended..that should be the end till ya do....its no different then any other time of year and I would say cause ive been 15 years or so now..and its a nightmare in the summer imo....its just cold..and warm and fun..and evry city has tourist traps..ya just gotta make friends and learn where the fun is..take care

flowerbomb was strong as fuck.

Yeah I'm looking for a junkie bike lol or if I get a job my dad will send my bike from home out

I've smoked all from the list except for L.A. Cheese and Buddha Tahoe - not all during the cannabis cups though.

My favourite one of the lists would be Super Lemon Haze - from Voyagers or Boerejongens instead of Greenhouse. Although I have to admit that I really liked SLH from Greenhouse in 2009 and 2011.

Flowerbomb Kush wasn't bad at all and strong as fuck last November.

Got some Liberty Haze at Amnesia last spring and I wasn't happy at all. Overrated shit weed imo.

Never had any luck with Tangerine Dream. My last try was a few years back so probably the quality changed by now.

Hawaiian Snow wasn't my cup of tea either...

I always had good times during the Cannabis Cup. Beside its commercial aspect there's nothing wrong about it. It's even one of the most fun times of the year imo - with judge pass or without.

Voyagers has chocolope on their new menu. They also have big buddha's cheese, which is similar to but (imho) better than LA Cheese. LA cheese is a LA Conf Mom and a Exodus cheese dad and BBC is cheese mom LA Confidential male.

Sorry but I think Big Buddha Cheese is Exodus Cheese x Afghan...
