Milk Tea - Skookum - September 2025

STRAIN: Milk Tea
GROWER: Humble Gemini
LINEAGE: Zerbert x Horchata
TYPE: Indica-dominant hybrid
THC: 28%
Took a little bit of a shot in the dark and ordered this. It's a regular in their rotation over at Skookum and the description appealed to me. I also went with one of their sativa offerings to REALLY throw something different in the rotation, but I was curious about their hybrid-dominant indicas and so ended up with this.
As per the usual, it showed up in one of their standard tuna cans with the boveda. Cracking it open immediately let out a blast of citrus funk, followed by a spicy and earthy note with a creamy, slightly nutty back end. Makes a lot of sense if you've ever drank Horchata. Upon breaking the buds apart, more of the Zerbert takes the wheel, bringing more of those sour candy/citrus notes to the forefront. I love a good Zkittles cross and this has that very prominent aroma. Not over on the dank/kushy end of the spectrum where I normally stay, this seemed like it would tick the box I needed ticked.
Buds were medium to large sized, bright green with fuzzy pinkish-orange hairs an even dusting of intact trichomes. Moisture level was bang on for joint-rollers like myself. The trim on this is top notch, with hardly a leaf to be found. Buds were slightly squishy with average density and snapped off the stem with ease. These were very sticky once pulled apart, and took a little bit of elbow grease to get the grinder going. The end result was soft and fluffy and had a little bit of a scent that was reminiscent of Fruit Loops.
Joint burned slowly, smoothly and evenly with a light gray ash. The mostly-dominant citrus/candy notes, while still present, take a bit of a step back and let the creamy, spicy notes of the Horchata shine through. The flavour on this is almost like a lemon ginger tea, but with milk and a touch of cinnamon? Cardamom? The evolution of the nose/taste on this was very cool to note, from opening the can, to breaking up the buds, to actually smoking.
The buzz on this is great. While exact ratios are unavailable due to the rarity of this strain in the wild, I'd probably say this is about a 70/30. Sits right in that "relaxed yet productive" niche, which is great for me, as it calms my anxiety but still leaves me with enough energy to get things done, if I want to. I didn't today. It was a Sunday and I listened to music and gamed for a bit. The munchies on this one, however, are no joke. Lock your cupboards and your fridge.
Another great offering from Skookum. Thanks for taking the time to read!

Dark Dreams - Skookum - August 2025

STRAIN: Dark Dreams
GROWER: Dune Crew
LINEAGE: Cookies x Cherry Pie x Dream Factory
TYPE: Indica-dominant hybrid
THC: 28%
Was feeling a bit underwhelmed lately, probably due to my tolerance, but it compelled me to ask around and see who had the absolute best flower available. A friend had recently had a terrific experience with Skookum, specifically their Mint Chocolate Chip.
Skookum has been around in various incarnations for quite a few years now. Their prices are a little bit steep in comparison to other places, but I knew that my quest to find true AAAA+ 9.5+/10 flower was going to have a tax attached to it. Created an account, which saved me some cash off my first purchase, and pulled the trigger on the MCC (on sale), Black Soap (on sale), and this glorious shit right here, Dark Dreams.
The other two are definitely great, but this shit right here is fucking tits. Amazing flower.
Cracking the can, you're met with a sharp, pungent funk. Fuel and earth aromas, heavy in myrcene, but an undeniable punch of something else definitely assaults your nostrils. It's a difficult smell to describe sufficiently, and it's different from anything I've really ever smelled before. It hit me almost in my sinuses. I could fucking smell this shit in my soul.
Buds were dark green and absolutely CAKED. In spots the trich heads had kind of melded together into almost this crust of THC. All their stuff comes in sealed tuna-type cans with a fresh boveda. Some love them, some hate them, I'm kinda indifferent. I don't necessarily see the need for them when the flower is sealed like this, but it is what it is. Chucked them in the bin when I jarred these all up, but for what it's worth, these flower were all pretty much perfect as far as moisture levels go. Sticky to the touch, these had my fingers absolutely glued. There was one big nug, probably around 7-8g, one about 2-3g, and the rest were about 1g on average. I only have video of the larger one or I would have uploaded it. Trust me when I say it was an absolute sight to behold.
Burn was smooth, slow and clean. Waited until before bed to give it a try (night time burn pic) and even smoking outside with a decent wind, it oiled up right away. The freshness of the bud ensures that a 1.5g joint requires about half an hour of your time. Ash was light gray with small black specks. Terp translation is fantastic. It's a rare treat to smoke something that tastes "unfamiliar" and this ticks that box. It's nuanced and multi-layered and just hits in the right way.
The high was amazing as well. Definitely indica-leaning, with that kind of mental fog that can envelope you if you let it, but I still felt strangely aware and uplifted and was able to have some great conversations. Dream Factory is a sativa-dom, and that punch shifts this from something that would otherwise slump me to something that just made me feel GOOD.
I was hesitant to send the order through, as they haven't been mentioned here much in the last few years and it's always a gamble ordering from a new source. I'm glad I did. I don't have deep enough pockets to be smoking this stuff all the time, as my consumption is pretty high and they don't do bulk purchases. HOWEVER, as a treat to throw into the rotation or as something special to bring to an event or get-together, I highly recommend this stuff. Some of the finest flower I've smoked in a long time.

Doughnut 14g ordered from GetSkookum

Made 2 orders, 1st order doughtnut was a big let down I paid 120 for 14g and if you got it from a pal down the street youd wonder why they charged double to you!
I made second order before opening the doughnut. This was on May 1st. They sent my package today May 9th expedited with the estimated delivery the 21st of May ! no exageration. They messaged lied about sending the order, then a week later lied about sending with xpresspost and angrily said "why would we waste $30 on canada post xpresspot" . After spending $400 on overpriced weed its mid stregth and cleaner . its the price and the taste not worth trying

Zhit Biscotti (GetSkookum) - April 2023

Picked up some of this Zhit Biscotti, grown by Captain Ron in a flourishing living aquaponic setup. Appearance: 9.5/10 Super colourful, attractive, caked, deftly trimmed, good stickiness, excellent cure, right on point for what Iβd expect from Skookum & Cpt Ron. Good sized buds in the tin as well. Aroma: 9.2/10 Baked goods, sweet, herbal, a touch of gas/chem cleaner. Flavour: 9.3/10 baked goods, chocolate, creamy, a touch gassy and spicy, burns to a light grey but slightly speckled ash. High: 9.5/10 With its flavour and aroma profile I wasnβt expecting it to kick as hard. Very buzzy, strong and long-lasting. Manifested behind my eyes for the first portion, with the latter portions draping a calming blanket over my plans. Great for long periods of focus. Overall: 9.3/10 Always happy to try something new, would I order again? Iβm not sure, there are always so many flavourful choices on GetSkookum, but I would definitely recommend to those who enjoy a chocolatey flavour profile with big potency.
