The Menthol

It’s not bad, but it doesn’t taste like the name. There’s nothing menthol about it. Not a bad thing but if you’re looking for a minty flavor it’s not here. For effects I would say this is an anxious free Sativa. Personally I didn’t notice any indica style effects. I felt energized, creative and social. Not social as in I wanted to party, but more like watch an intellectually deep movie and discuss it with one person after. Long story short, good weed for a Friday night / weekend — doesn’t do much for anxiety, does help with pain, taste and flavor to me is basically…weed flavor

Hit a live resin cart. Has a pleasant flavor I find to be more of a vanilla very mild menthol edge. The smoke seems smooth. I usually prefer quite heavy indica, This is definitely Hitting me more noticeably like a hybrid. For this reason, it would not be my top choice for appetite, stimulation, or the sedation I’m usually looking for. However, it is not jittery to me as some Hybrid can be quite smooth and pleasant. I will be adding in Indica once I am done with the review. I find it uplifting and I feel I had smoked this early in the day. It would’ve helped with my ADHD by increasing my focus. I am smoking it at night, so I’m not able to gauge this as accurately. I feel It’s also not agitating my panic, but I would not consider it super super helpful not as helpful as more of an Indica leaning. I do think because of the uplifting quality it would be beneficial for depression. If you’re someone who can be sensitive to Sativa, this does not feel like a sativa-heavy hybrid. I believe the cartridge I have is labeled ~67%. I have very high tolerance, this is not strong enough to truly “the edge off” for me, but it is a pleasant mellow buzz and I appreciate it, and I will build on it!

I bought this strain by the half ounce at the Flower Shop. I figured for $90 that's an awesome deal, though I was looking for higher potency sativas or hybrids. But for $90 I can stretch out a half ounce a couple weeks so I picked this up along with an eighth of The Machine. It is definitely a Crasher, albeit not the most potent one, I have, with one exception, gotten a good 6 1/2 to 8 hours of sleep a night since I've been smoking it. I come to find out though that it can be a workday buddy too, if I get a couple cups of coffee in me or a sugar free energy drink, that counteracts the drowsiness, then I'm just left with the focus and relaxation, and I'm not too high to do my job well. It won't replace a peppy sativa with similar benefits, I think, but my job is very repetitive and regular so maybe those who do more complex and dynamic work may want to avoid this strain until bedtime. Out of the bag the buds were soft and pillowy, still fluffy, a bit difficult to break up and grind. Out of the grinder and I get the indica skunkiness, almost a bit lemony for me, sort of dieselish, but I didn't smell any minty notes. There is a very slight note of natural mint in the dry herb vape, but it was more lemony, piney, with sort of a back note that tastes the way oil smells, if that makes any sense. A bit harsh in the bong when fresher, both flavor and harshness seem to mellow out as the buds get brittle and powdery. I have also tried it in a chillum and rolled, the former I do recommend, the latter gets harsh halfway and only worse from there. The vaporiser seems to be the way to go. So, good budget stretcher, definitely a mid-grade strain, the high is a little heavy but lasts all of 1-2 hours for me, and then I'm too relaxed to really want another one for a while. The economically minded may think of picking up an ounce or two to supplement their usual supply. Not as versatile as many other strains, but for the price it could become a go-to for the more relaxed hours.
