It turns out I like "reefer" joints ?

Just back from a winter escapade in the dam!

Staying near to Siberië, I went there a few times, and in addition to a gram of something on their menu, I'd get their pre-rolled pure "Reefer" joint to smoke at the bar.

I'm a daily smoker for nearly a decade now, so I imagine my tolerance is quite high. But those pre-rolled joints cut right through the tolerance and hooked me up in magical and wonderful ways.

I took the "reefer" labeling to suggest that the joints were made with left-over shake, and when I asked the budtender, she said that was the case, and a lot of purple haze turns up in it.

I think the purple haze was the cheapest thing on the menu, 5eu/g.

The 420 Cafe was also selling joints with the same name, and when asking about it, the budtender said a similar thing, the hazes turn up in it a lot, and fruity flavors. I enjoyed one here too w/ similar results.

I get the feeling that the reefer joints are sold as bottom of the barrel, cheap seats, like getting an instant coffee when the freshest beans are at your disposal.

I sampled some of the ~13eu/g around town, but I kept coming right back to the reefer joints.

So what is it with these things? Is it the fact that it's got a little bit of everything, and maybe I got some good luck of the draw in terms of potency? Maybe when I smoke from a pipe at home, I'm not smoking as much as I do in one of those long-ass joints they roll... though the same amount of a NY Diesel joint hardly showed up to the party.

The experience does make me question paying more for "premium" strains, though I don't rule it out completely. Similarly, I was quite excited by the AK-47 at Popey's for 7eu/g... deep, potent... more so than what I'm used to, and cheaper too.

Anyone else prefer the reefer joints or know why they come on so strong?

Cheers!

For me, smoking less potent strains from time to time get me higher. I have wondered about this too. Although, the ice hashes kick my ass and then some.

Looking forward to hearing about other gear you have tried.

Interesting to hear you've experienced this... not a bad theory to test, especially if it makes "weekend trips" to Amsterdam a little more affordable.

I was also "upsold" on the Amnesia at Damp Kring, I tried the 14eu version. It definitely smells up the room, harsh on the down take, adequate high, but again, I was more excited by the lil old reefer J.

Not complaining about the experience at all, it's great to have the ability to try around and enjoy different strains out there.

The Bubblegum at the Siberië was also under 10 and had a nice taste!
