Quest for Amsterdam's Diamonds Pt7 Feb13 Smoke Report

Post by pengaldinho »

First trip of 2013! Not many scenic pics this trip, my hands were in pockets due to the cold! One mate(A) got there the day before me on the megabus/ staying in a hostel near Museumplein and me an another(B) were flying in and staying at Hotel Abba. (sorry for poor grammar/spelling throughout, I'm dyslexic and stoned)

Day 1
Sun was shining as we walled out of CS, perfect.

Anyday – familiar bud tender – nice chat about the menu – Grinspoon was ice sold out. :(, Raspberry something looked nice but had a strange smell. Got 15% discount on the 5g and free papers and tips.
1g Dr Grinspoon E16.50 -didn’t smell of much at all but I wanted some for my first smoke. Not great flavor but lovely high.
Image
2g Roh Tang Pass E17 – cheaper by E5 than previously – the dealer said it was reflecting the quality(nice to see honesty). This time it was in hard pressed slabs rather than lumps. Not quite as amazing and sticky as before but still fucking good.
Image
Image
Image
Image
1g Reserva X E14.50 – Thick creamy smooth smoke that produced a heavy eyed, comatose stone. Made my brain melt. :)
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
1g Strawberry Cough E12.80(ish) – did have a subtle strawberry flavour, not my cup of tea but nice.
Image

Walking down Nieuwezijds I see mate A sitting outside Utopia with a big grin on his face. He frantically tells me that he has smoked White Choco/Amazing Haze Boerenjongens(first good second not so), Abusive OG from GP (nice) and Kosher Kush from Voyagers (best so far). I reject the offer of half a spliff and go inside to get my sativa on.

Utopia – Great friendly service and chat with Nel. Gold toothed yank talking about guns and black hash was amusing. Smoked the Grinspoon followed by the Roh Tang, for a moment I thought to myself ' I'm not that high,' then my fingers stated to tingle and woosh I was flying.
1g Champagne Haze E14 – this was my favorite smoke form august 2012 trip. Buds weren’t as tight as that batch but same sweet hazy taste and high. YUMYUM!
Image
Image
Image
Image
1g Recon E15 – more yum yum, musky flavors, slow stone.
Image
Image

Walk up to Voyagers at 12ish, SHUT!

HSBM – lemon haze didn’t smell great so I went with
1g Black Spice E15 – didn’t get a pic of this for some reason, looked exactly the same as Judos pic of it. Great bit of black hash, which I'm not normally that into.
No space on the sofas so on to

Green Place
Too many OG's on the menu, didn’t like what I saw so just got a hot chocolate.

Pieminister for the now routine mothership pie. Mmmmmm. My mate got the soup of the day and when he asked what meat was in it the waitress jokingly said horse!
Image

Tram to the hotel to check in, then jump on the 3 to

Papilion – Gardella and the top sativa which name I have forgotten were sold out.
2g Gold Cream E10/g = E18/2 – more like a sandy crumbly polm than last time. Nice sweet maroc taste.
Image
1g G12 E11 – I don’t know if the name was a typo but it was nice hazy smoke.
Image

De Graal – Back to heaven, I really do love this place. Glasses of juice have got smaller but still best value in town. It was full upstairs so we grabbed a seat down stairs and chilled playing cards for a few hours.
2g Special cream E18/g – slightly darker than the cream, in the same sized bullets. As soft as it gets. Mouth watering fresh floral flavors that followed by a quickly induced, really clear, clean uplifting high, strong but still slightly subtle (if that makes sense) It was the smoke version of drinking cold mineral water when your really thirsty, smooth and refreshing. Amazing! I couldn't choose the best pic so here's them all!
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
2g Cream E16/g – much more blonde on the inside than the special. Not quite as wonderful up high, more piney taste = another top notch piece of hasj.
Image
Image
Image
1g HR E13 – Candy lemony Haze yum yum.
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
1g NYCD E12 -Was slightly too fresh, but the diesel taste was there and I'm a sucker for it.
Image
Image

Grey area – Mate A went(he didn't have a tram pass and left us at the hotel and met us again in De Graal), I wasn’t planning to go but was interested to see what they had.
1g OG Kush E? – meh – no pic – no flavors of og/diesel
1g Kosher Kush E16 – YUM – nice kushy tang.
Image
0.5g Purple Sour Diesel E?- meh – no diesel flav
Image

Club Media – low on Zooltjes, disappointed with the smell/appearance of Motivation(which was my favorite in Nov). Friendly Spanish tender who knew her stuff.
2g Hindu Kush E11/g – nice smoke, especially good for the price.
Image
0.5g KC Jones – should have got more!! lovely! Similar to the Motivation in November. Mouth watering savory flavor, a bit like pork stuffing sausages.
Image

24 to central

Burger Bar – Kobe and chips
Image

Green Place for after dinner smoke
1g NYCD E12 – meh – no pic no flav

Tram back to hotel to watch some EOFT (http://www.youtube.com/user/EOFT0809) DVDs and get as high as possible. :D

Your reports are always my favorite. The pictures had me drooling, you have excellent taste, and I always take a lot of information away from your descriptions. Thanks for taking the time, and the pictures. Makes me long for Amsterdam and that's hard to accomplish.
Because life is too short to smoke bad bud.

Day 2
De Graal Cream for breakfast
Image
Image
Image

Mate A came round about 10.30 after another visit to Boerenjongens - 0.5g of Love Potion(slight hint of diesel), 0.5g G13/SSH, 1g Super Mzing Haze(pictured) I remember this from 2/3 years ago being nice and it was.
Image
Image

1e Hulp
Got here at 12 and each rolled a G13 variant and compared 1e's G13/Amnesia, Boerejongens SSH/G13 and Papi's G12. I favoured 1e's version. Played a few games of pool but forgot to play the football game on the itbox.
1g G13/Amnesia E12 – sandalwood hazey goodness. Yum-diddley-um!
Image
Image
Image
0.5g warm ears and 0.5g zero zero – mate B wanted to try both with a view to getting a nice lump (which he never got round to :) ) he said the 0-0 was slightly better. No pics

Paradox – refurb looks good, not much work but its nice. It was really busy so it was just a buy and fly.
1g 100% Sativa E15 – this was amazing last trip, had the same not very appealing hay smell but not quite the same taste and high. Maybe because I was anticipating it because last time it hit me like nothing else.
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

Brooje Bert – for the BLT(amazing as always) and I found out why they sell out of the applecake so fast- there are only about 8 slices at the size they sell! I tried to take the picture with the keys to show its size but it didn’t really work. Lovely thick buttery pastry filled with gooey apple goodness. Superb combo.
Image
Image
Image

GA – mate A left us at Paradox went here and met us at Voyagers
1g Kosher Kush E16.50 – repeat purchase – no pic

Voyagers – no Testing Tuesday!– I was told problems with printer, laminator and the law doesn’t like written on items etc, next week I saw a menu pic with stuck on testing Tuesday! Ya bastards :evil: ! Talked about their kosher vs GA's to Danny, he seemed to like the smell of Johns. :)
0.5g Kosher Kush – its not my favorite strain for taste but I wanted to try it, it was nice. GA's was slightly more pungent.
Image
1.8g Purple Westside – beautiful looking but that's about it – bland flavor and unremarkable high.
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
0.8g SLH E10– very nice, I much preferred this to the other to other two – sweet strong flavours and buzzy high. Should have followed my nose not my eyes.
Image
Image

Kashmir Lounge – told to light a fat one by the friendly barman :D . Few hot chocolates and hours later me an B got on the 17 to CS and waked up Haarlemmerstraat to
Tascana – Caprese salad and pizza Margherita for me. Mmmmmm mozzarella.
Found shelter enough from the wind to smoke a quick after dinner spliff on the walk to the tram.
On the 1 back to Abba. Mate A had gone to De Graal on my advice looking for something @ E10/g.
Amnesia – I don think I smoked it, he said it was decent and good for the price.
Image
Image
Watched Arsenal vs Bayern and some more EOFT before bed.
