Lacks any real fragrance, slight floral hash scent maybe. Feels and looks like a soft Riffman hash, burns like polm though, doesn't bubble, no real deffinative taste retained from the origional strain however I'm not a big fan of that strain in the first place. Strength wise, it's on a par with Terminator and Dampkrings 60 euro waterworks (should be 40)...outta the 3, the 50 euro Terminator gets my vote. I'm thinking the price is purely based on the hype surrounding the strain, which is not necessarily the shops fault.
Hunter, yer not CaptainMorgan are ya? lol.
Hi there
Glad that you dropped by to sample for yourself.
Now, the issue of the bubbling. I personally do no purport to be any kind of an expert on isolater hash or its production. Therefore we posed the question back to the supplier for his personal view. I would obviously be interested in anybody elses input.
According to our man, the trichomes of sativa plants are smaller than those of indica plants. The effect of this is far less evidence of bubbling. This is his explanation, in short. As you said yourself, the strength is certainly on a par with the very best comparable products available in the city.
I would say that I was surprised that you commented on a lack of discernible fragrance. Of all the ice which we sell I can actually note the smell of the weed quite clearly. The same with the LA Murder which we sell (extracted from LA Confidential). Other ice often seems to offer little or no scent but those two for me are really quite distinct in their aroma.
Anyway, thanks for the comments about the shop and I appreciate your view.
... and no, I'm not Captain Morgan... I wonder whether your reference is towards our tall Dutch chap with a penchant for dark rum? I believe he darkens your door regularly.
Cheers!
Other than that prick its a fantastic shop.
