Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Sweet updates SR, thanks for sharing all your cheesy purchases! Have you tried Dampkrings cheese? It was top of my list for strength a year ago.

Congrats on employee of the month - something special considering all your cheese smoking , and glad you're job is going cheesily.

You're description of the war between cyclists and pedestrians had me laughing - I'll be joining the cyclist crew next time!

Yeah same here

Nice to get all these up to date weed reports especially ones that are more reliable than that bushdoctor site who I have never seen be anything but positive

Good work (and no doubt very enjoyable) SoulRider

Think i saw you on thrusday soulrider. Me and the girlfriend were in 420 at about 11ish i think you were sat in the corner talking to some guy with a laptop.

Yes, and as I said to Craig_ulsterman the other day... Why don't you come over and talk to me if you recognise me? I don't know, I post my face all over here so you will recognise me, then you don't talk to me

All cool dude

I have had lots more weed buying but unfortunately didn't have my laptop. I have been on holiday since thursday last week, so as you can Imagine I have a lot more weed updates. Can't remember them all but here are some of the highlights..

Made about 4 trips to HGF buying Cheese every time

Went to Basjoe's on Friday and had some Cheese. Went to Basjoe's to get some more Cheese on Saturday and James and Leo asked me if I would give them my opinion on a new Cheese they are thinking of bringing in. They threw an extra 1/3g as a sweetener, as if I needed it anyway..

Well they wanted my opinion so I gave it to them straight. The new Cheese is a much better Cheese than the old one. It is much more like the original. It smells more like it, it tastes more like it, and it gets you stoned much more like it. Therein lies the problem, while it is a very good Cheese, the old Cheese, while similar to Cheese, has a kick ass stone that sort of wraps it hands around your throat and slams you into your chair. I want them to keep both. As for which is the most Cheese like though, their new Cheese wins hands down. From their looks and chat between themselves, I don't think I'm the first person to say that either...

Old Amsterdamsm Cheese I feel is a bit of a letdown. It is Cheese tasting and smelling, but not particularly strong. Maybe just a bad batch, we'll have to wait and see. Katsu Big Buddha Cheese is very nice at the moment.. as is most of their menu.. 420 SSH still rocking, Blueberry decent batch 2 days ago.. Bluebird So Gouda, been buying more of that and really getting into it

Laughing Buddha at the Rokerij on Singel is currently an OK batch, but not a special one. I must tell you about their Rokerij Special. It is €6g. It is an old school skunk. Not much flavour, if any, but a very strong stone, like a metal band placed around your head. Really nice and always worth a punt at that price, even to add a kick to a milder weed Give it a go

Pool standard at NES is still ridiculously high. You know I've been to pubs that have had good regular players, but every match in here requires 100% concentration to avoid being blown away. 2-3 table visits seems to be the average game I am involved in.

Will post more if it ever comes back to me

I've seen this posted by you 3 times now. What is coffeeshop D&L?

Edit, Nevermind, finally found it, yay. Now I know where that is, will add it to my neverending list of coffeeshops to visit..

D&L was shut down for illegal gambling and hard drugs yesterday. Don't bother.

so what happens now with that coffeeshop?? can someone else buy it and open it back up?? or is it done for good?

and illegal gambling and hard drugs in a coffeeshop.. what the hell were these guys thinking.

also i am really enjoying this blog/travel update soulrider! i sure hope it continues. the cheese hunt you are on sounds quite interesting. thanks for sharing your travels with us

Damn it there's a strange button on my laptop which causes the explorer to go back, just lost my post . The gist of it was...

Glad to see you're still enjoying your cheeses . The strongest smoke of my trip a year ago was cheese from Dampkring, strongest because it was the hardest to think straight on, have you tried this one yet Andy?

I watched a one shot pool clearance last night in the Nes, the video is somewhere in ACD, amazing! My old flat mate was ranked 4th in the world at junior pool, he practiced 6 hours a day. One mistake against him, and he cleared up! I'm looking forward to playing pool in the Nes next week

Edit: Found the pool clearance:http://www.nes-cafe.nl/crazypoolshot1.html

HAHAHAHA it's a fake dude, LOLOLOOLOLOLOLOL

If you can't see it at full speed, just watch it frame by frame... or scroll down the page to where they admit it is a fake...

We had some dude called Fast Eddie, or atleast his daughter email us complaining like a right strumpet about how we're tryin to con everybody with that video and that her dad owns the record for most balls potted on the break. Some ppl just can't take a joke.

Loving the blog/reporting, especially the cheese off, look forward to the full cheese world cup im just chilling with an unknown sativarish strain...(it sucks not knowing the strand names from your local dealer, you never know what high to expect...tis the time to homegrow ) also a bottle of red and your full report from start to present has made my easter monday a nice chillout session...off to play some Streetfigher4 on xbox live...SmokeyZootman

Will be keeping up with your report, really like the mixture of weed analysis and day to day living in the dam, keep it up bruv!

LOL @ Lampshade, saw that fake a few years back LOL

SR,
I am really enjoying your blog. I appreciate your taking the time to write it. If I should happen to see you next month when in town I'll be sure to at least say hello. One of the many strains I want to try is Cheese. In particular I want to try one that most would say is characteristic of the strain. My thinking is that HGF Cheese might be the "standard" with the White Cheese at Old Amsterdam being perhaps the ultimate. This new Cheese you describe from Basjoe's sounds like perhaps it may best represents the strain. Any thoughts on the matter are welcome. Also please keep us posted regarding the potential new offering from Basjoe.

br

White Cheese is not Cheese. It is cheese crossed with something else, so it has elements of cheese, but also other strains, as does the blue cheese which is blueberry and cheese, Cheese itself is generally best represented by the HGF cheese, however, with all these new cheeses springing up, I can't believe they are all big buddha cheese, at least one grower must be using the HGC? Maybe...

Interestingly I need to put the New Basjoe Cheese vs HGF to see. I was speaking to Leo last night about the Cheese explosion around Amsterdam at the moment, and he described it as the "2nd generation". Basically a grower will start to grow a particular strain of cheese, and it will be picked up by a coffeeshop or two, then after a few seasonal grow outs, more growers get in on the strain, and thus more coffeeshops get the strain. This is what is happening with the cheese and has previously happened to almost every other big name strains around the coffeeshops in Amsterdam, the reason it seems like they are all copying each other is because at the end of the day, the shops can only sell what the growers grow Although there is still a lot of choice available..
