Big Bad Wolf by Skookum - GetSkookum - August 2021

/u/3fiddySEBBEN

It’s hump day, perfect timing for a strain that’ll get you fucked up: Big Bad Wolf Wow! Never heard of this strain before, but it got me baked outta my goddamn gourd. We’re talkin high school baked here folks - so high you pour a bowl of cereal and catch yourself putting the milk back in the cupboard baked. Looks on this one are quite nice, great trichome coverage against some very light green shades that border on whitish in some places, haven’t seen buds like this colour since White Rhino back in the day. Nugs are perfectly cured, nice and dense, and very sticky when busting up. Aroma is very sweet up-front with some notes of fuel and citrus in there too - had my nose hairs perking up big time when I cracked this tin. Very flavourful and smooth in a joint, you can taste it right down to the roach, which is always nice. Burns to airy, light-grey ash. As I said before, this cultivar is super potent. I could feel the effects creeping up after about ¼ of the joint and I was absolutely mangled by the time I finished the sesh. Thought about putting it out half way, but then began questioning if I was man enough to be smoking this in the first place. So I persevered and ended up tearing through the pantry like some sort of crazed beast - a big bad wolf perhaps. Lol, couldn’t resist. But yeah, this one was lights out for me, love it! Overall rating 10/10

Sherbert - GetSkookum - August 2021

/u/FaceLike_Thunder

I have tried lots of Skookum tins over my years and for whatever reason I avoid Sherbert (sunset sherb in particular). I think those days are numbered, saw a good review of this tin and wanted to give it a go. This one is a dark horse, and continues to surprise me with its potent kick. Appearance: 9.2/10 - mostly grape sized buds with some really striking bluish purple hues and a generous coating of trichs. Not super sticky but fresh on the cure, rolls beautifully and is a great performer in a joint. Smell: 9.1/10 - this one is a bit hard to describe, and not what I was expecting really. It reminds me of cider and sliced radish. Pretty complex and interesting. Flavour: 9.1/10- very smooth and expansive smoke, is earthy and sweet with a bit of spice. High: 9.4/10 - potency that commands respect, really enjoying this at the end of the day for winding down and relaxing. It also worked well for me alongside some gaming (Apex Legends), keeping me focused and calmed & giggly. Lots of fun, big enjoy. Overall: 9.3/10 Value: 9.1/10

Big Bad Wolf - GetSkookum - Aug 2021

/u/FaceLike_Thunder

I’ve never tried this cultivar but I am digging the genetics. They sent out their first newsletter announcing some new drops late last week so I grabbed this and a tin of Cuban Lynx. Appearance: 9/10 - nearly all the buds in my tin were quite chunky calyxed. The cure is awesome, I love a fresh bud and this touched & looked like it just finished curing under an experienced hand. Leaves your fingers sticky and resinous. Not super glitzed out or alien looking but some great looking buds. Smell: 9.5/10 - really intriguing to the senses, has an aroma that is intimidating and foreboding. I get gassy funk, sweet pastry creaminess as the description noted, and some pine/citrus. There’s something else in there that reminded me of grated ginger, or Headbanger OG’s aroma. Flavour: 9.7/10 - it takes something special to get my eyebrows raised, this is it here. Really full and expansive smoke while the cure lends itself to a very smooth passage. Most prominent is a fuel forward and savoury ginger tang. Burns great in a joint to a light fluffy ash, I am going to be reaching for this one again and again. High: 9.8/10 - will blow your whole day down if you aren’t careful. I have a very high tolerance and this one is able to absolutely suplex me. Hits me right behind the face with a strong immediacy mid-joint, it then melts into a big calming and stoney delight that is centred in the body. Overall: 9.7/10 Value: 9.5/10 This one rules, I am going to get another tin of this if it’s still online when I order next. If you’re after high potency and intriguing flavours, I would definitely recommend this one.

Mendo Breath - GetSkookum- July 2021

/u/FaceLike_Thunder

Mendo Breath is one of those cultivars that you’ll have lit and people will smell it all the way down the block. I saw a good review on this one so I decided to grab a tin and I’m so glad I did. Appearance: 9/10 - medium to large in size buds, hand-trimmed looking and exuding a prominently orange themed look due to the fiery orange pistils. Very fresh to the cure, left my fingers resinous and oily after handling. Buds are dense and sticky, rolls beautifully. Burns to a very light fluffy ash. Smell: 9.3/10 - loud, pungent and dank. I get hints of gas, conifer, creaminess, over a savoury musky backdrop. Flavour: 9.3/10 - creamy and gassy with an expansive feel but smooth exhale. High: 9.5/10 - I think this one shines here, leaves me squintsed and cheery but calmed and centred. I am reaching for this one any time of day, helps to slow/organize my racing thoughts. Very good potency, would recommend for heavy tokers. Overall: 9.2/10 Value: 9/10

Sherbert by Skookum - GetSkookum - July 2021

/u/3fiddySEBBEN

Serving up another review! Today’s frozen confection: Sherbert Good lord she’s a frosty one! This caked-up cultivar is truly a delight for the senses, beautiful looking trich-covered buds with nice little flourishes of purple tones throughout. Very nice density for this type of strain, and the cure is also on point. Very nice cross of Girl Scout Cookies x Pink Panties right here. Definitely getting the creaminess of GSC coming through with some fresh berry notes and a bit of conifer spice to it. There’s a real complexity to the flavour/aroma that’s difficult to express in words, but these are some of the best descriptors that I could think of. Smokes beautifully. Really fucking smooth - I could puff of this stuff for hours straight if money were no object. Leaves a nice resin ring after about ⅓ of a joint and burns to damn-near white ash. Effects on Sherbert are very well-balanced. Took some of this to a BBQ last weekend and definitely felt chill and mellowed out, but not so much that I wanted to recede into a corner and not talk to anyone - always a plus at any social event! Great all-rounder of cultivar that will certainly get you proper ripped without being comatose. Overall rating: 9/10

Strawberry Jerry - GetSkookum - July 2021

/u/FaceLike_Thunder

Widely heralded and for good reason, Strawberry Jerry is one of those cultivars that smells & tastes so good you’d be able to convince your conservative non-potsmoking mom to try it. Appearance: 9/10 - About 3 decent sized buds and the rest were quite small, however they have that resinous fresh touch that is the signature of an expert cure. Hand trimmed, nicely coated in trichs, overall a happy looking grow. Smell: 9.9/10 - very terpene-rich, loud and imminently sweet. Smells like strawberry jam, really special aroma. Flavour: 9.5/10 - flavour follows through nicely with a nice coating of berry and a hint of spice. Smokes smooth in a joint and is sure to get remarks. High: 9.2/10 - not as blissful as the high CBG examples I’ve seen but very happy, breezy and good for creative endeavours, or just socializing in the sun. Overall: 9.4/10 Value: 9/10

One of my favorite strain. it smells fantastic like a dessert, it tastes fantastic it has everything I look for in marijuana. This is also a particularly good batch. I just need to wait for my shift to end but it will be tough to resist.
