In The Pines

Wow, great sativa come on. Brightens eyes up nice and wide while feeling extra chipper. Enthusiastic euphoria-fueled energy surges from deep inside. The mind can be felt unwinding, drifting off into the clouds. A largely competent, “with it” kind of high that evokes a unique sense of place. It’s got an especially nostalgic bent combined with visual and incredible auditory stimulation creates a mostly impressive and pleasurable experience save for a little sensory numbness that reduces emotional depth (but lends stability). This is a hybrid done right. Music sounds incredible thanks to the kush while soaring emotionally thanks to the euphoric sativa. Movies feel more impressive. Honestly, for how much good it does, it’s hard to fault much. Only getting better, too, as it settles in. 9.5

My go-to strain I’m a low-dose dude. I mostly use cannabis to sand the edges off of my anxiety and PTS while remaining functional. This has led me search for high CBD strains like Harlequin, Cannatonic, and the like. This strain is it! After a hit, I’m immediately uplifted which blooms into feelings of incredible focus and bliss. This is a perfect strain to get into the flow of whatever is happening at the moment. No munchies, but I do savor the things I’m eating much more. Nice tingling and headband effects, with some initial spacey-ness. Effects are relatively short but lead to a lingering afterglow of goodwill and relaxation. Taste is mild, primarily earthy with some roasted sweetness, like a strong black tea. There’s some dry-mouth, but it is a small price to pay for all the benefits of this strain.

Hands down my favorite strain of all time. I'll shell out a good chunk of cash if I find this at a dispensary. It's the best possible sativa for both writing and drawing, but it's also great for gaming, socializing and chilling. This stuff gives me a fuzzy feeling like I'm waking up on christmas morning as a kid. And the earthy, piney smell of the bud is like catnip to me.
