I will be going to amsterdam next week again and will try to get some more of it.

had some from Amnesia a couple of years ago, was very nice and super strong , so would be interested in what it is like nowadays, I have heard the Acapulco gold is supposed to be good also, but never tried

I've had Dr G from Katsu, and always found it worth it. Never had anything from Amnesia: I went there expressly to try the Acapulco Gold, and they were out of it. One day, one day. Tweede Kamer had Dr G once, and I meant to try it, but didn't, and I haven't seen it there since. Barneys I avoid on principle.

Coffeeshop Amsterdam often carry DrG too. Buying tip: When the budtender justifies the high price and bushweed ‘bag appeal’ by explaining that you should “smoke the sticks and seeds”...
Don’t.

'Tis true. Same owners - and if you'll notice a lot of staple strains come from Barney's range of seeds.

Prix d'Ami had Dr. G. In Feb 17 ( honestly it was the only time I ever went in there ), that was pretty acceptable and looking at their back menus it features throughout 2017 although no menus up there on http://www.coffeeshopmenus.org/Prix% ... DAmi.html since then !

Nobody wants to admit they were in ?

I tired prix d ami dr grinspoon im 17 it was 17 euros a gram was my first smoke of my trip it said beside it on the menu not for amateurs to be honest it wasn't up to much not much smell or flavour I wasn't impressed but everyone's differnt

As far as I know Barneys and Amnesia have different owners... Amnesia is or was owned by a woman... but the owner of Barneys married her a few years ago... since that Amnesia has also many strains that Barneys offer on the menu like Liberty Haze, Cookies Kush, Vanilla Kush and so on. Amnesia has also a few strains that Barneys don´t offer like LSD, Acapulco Gold and some hashes. Furthermore the strains both shops offer are are a bit cheaper at Amnesia (1€ less or so).

Back to topic

Personaly I tried Dr. Grinspoon from Paradox and Coffeeshop Amsterdam (at this time it was called Dampkring#2). Paradox version was pretty good. Tastewise there were much better strains around but it gave me a real strong sativa high that I felt after only a few tokes was pretty impressed by the effect while the second time from Coffeeshop Amsterdam it wasn´t that good

I think it´s now again on the menu from Tweede Kammer and Amsterdam Coffeeshop... also Barneys/Amnesia has it usually. Well I am not a fan of Barneys but I would check out their version, too. Sometimes they got some nice stuff and Dr. Grinspoon is usually pretty expensive in all coffeeshops... so the 17€/g from Coffeeshop Amnesia are expensive but compared to other shops it´s ok...

@Kalima Amnesias Acapulco Gold was super strong a few years back ! but I don´t know if the new batches are still nice...

I know what you mean it is nice to be able to go into a coffee shop and have a smoke

weeds totally legal where i live- yet they dont have anywhere publicly for it to be consumed which is total bullshit - thankfully i can enjoy it in my home without issue however - the fact you can touch down in nl take a train to CS get off and then have a haven of places that cater to allowing you to relax like no other place in the world is beyond priceless.. no matter how much things get better here until we have this the way it is - theres nothing coming in between the experience or atmosphere

With the anti smoking laws getting harsher and harsher i fear that even the coffeeshops will soon be buy and fly only.

from what I can tell they help amsterdam thrive. regardless of other things - that brings a shit load of tourists and people that will always go there not to mention amsterdam allows magic mushroom truffles which will still yield a trip - thats far beyond anything legally sold in the USA or abroad in modern places -

in any case I HOPE that never happens. This is why Im happy to go support AMS - there is truly no where like this place in the world. It is magical just like disneyland in the atmosphere it keeps
