Their current top selling flower and nary a doubt about why. Silky smooth smoke. Thank you PRIME Wellness and @KeystoneShops!

I smoked flower of African Jack, a sativa cross between African and Jack Herer from Sacred Gardens. This is my new favorite strain! Although it is a little more psychoactive (which I like), its clear headed and a good energizer. Went for a beautiful walk on this strain without any anxiety or loss of motor function. Nice body high though

Really good landrace strain man I smoked it felt so good and I got so giggly from smoking it this should a a giggly strain for real it makes me laugh every single time

A good high but nothing stood out to me about it. Typical sativa high.

This is another review of the old landrace strains from the 1970s. I had forgotten about this strain until reading DJ Short's "Strains of Yesteryear" article. In the summer of 1978, I was fortunate to obtain a 1/2 ounce of black dagga from Central Africa (probably Congo or Central African Republic) from an African undergrad. It had purplish black buds and was almost seedless. It cost about $75.00 per 1/2 ounce in 1978. The buds were medium size (1 gram) and had a licorice / earthy taste and smell. Not the prettiest bud in appearance but one of the strongest I have ever smoked. One large bowl produced an intense Sativa high lasting 6 to 8 hours - as stated!!! This strain was both psychedelic and speedy - and reduced your appetite!!! It did produce dry mouth and extremely red eyes. A convenience store clerk even commented on my totally bloodshot eyes. This Sativa high is similar to the current Durban Poison but 10X as intense. Very introspective and great for hiking / walking and physical activities. Not good for talking or social situations / reading. Definitely not mellow but very, very stimulating and speedy. Thoughts were very racy and colors were intense. It was a hallucinogenic at the 3 bowl level. These effects were the same each of the 25+ times I smoked this bud. Only the genuine Maui Wowie was this strong!!! My estimate is 25 - 30% THC with incredible THCV content. Never had this weed after 1978. The only sativa product that was better was the famous one hit red honey oil from red lebanese hash. Do not turn down the landrace african strains when available.. In my personal cannabis hall of fame

I'm on a trip in Togo at the moment and this is the only strain I found so far. After a few minutes I started to feel the high slowly kicking in and its a quite nice feeling nit overwhelming. I would say that it smells and tastes like Africa, a but earthy, its really nice. I picked up different times and the colour changed a bit but it was always quite brown and dry but not harsh for the throat, its really smooth. After two joints the high is amazing, probably one of the best in my life, everything becomes so happy and beautiful and I'd say its really good for people who feels quite low as it is really euphoric. I have never seen this strain in Europe yet but who ever finds some I highly recommend them to try it !

Although it is unfair to lump all African strains together under one category, most of them when cured and aged using traditional indigenous methods appear dark greenish brown and are often seeded. Commercial varieties which are also exported are pressed into bricks. Even though Malawi, Swaziland and various other varieties have become known in the West over the years, there are still many other strains all over Africa. I have been using mainly Ghanaian and Congolese varieties which have at least two sub types, one which has dense dark buds and the other which is a lighter and is leafier than the other variety. Both are seeded although the lighter one has less seeds which are mostly pale and non-viable. The darker variety has a spicy, musky, earthy aroma while the lighter one is fruitier. The taste of the dark one is also spicier and its aroma is stronger. The lighter grade had a smooth taste and a fresher, leafier smell. The effects of both are immediate but intensify and last about 1-2 hours. Although these are supposed to be pure Sativas, they do sometimes exhibit Indica like traits and over indulgence can cause drowsiness. Also great for those suffering from a lack of appetite. Perfect for day time use. I prefer landraces and have an interest in preserving traditional curing techniques from various parts of the world. The African varieties which I have smoked are truly some of the best strains I've sampled and should not be underestimated based on their appearance - this is not "schwag"

I need some of that🤑
