Mochi Triangle - Hierba - TogoWeed - April 2023
Lineage: OG Kush x Triangle Kush x Mochi Gelato First time trying Hierba. There's been mixed feedback over the years, but I wanted to see how this experience would turn out anyway. Good bag appeal, buds had lighter pastel colours sporting vivid tones. The minty light greens stood out amongst amber, orange, and purple hues. Elongated and dense in structure with a good trim, I found them to be a tad dry, though not crumbly, but were still very resinous and somewhat sticky when breaking them apart. Grounded up fine in texture, yet wasn't powdery at all. Nose smelled akin to Gelato. Sweet, fruity, creamy, and berry, with undertones of sourness, skunk, and pine. Terps and flavour translated mildly, except no fruit or berry taste, and was rather spicy on initial draw. There was also an aftertaste of cream and mint on exhale. Sadly, flavour didn't hold up well, fell short about midway through joint. Got spicier and more pungent, as the rest of notes gradually faded, but the cream and mintyness had retained its course. Burn quality was very good. Didn't combust as slowly, but made for a clean, smooth tasting experience. The ash was mostly light grey with few peppering, and was greasy for the most part. Buzz was slight indica leaning, maybe like a 60/40 type, and potency was about medium. The cerebral side did stimulate some creativity and the will to engage in activities, which ultimately tapered to moderate relaxation and some couch lock after an hour or so. Overall, I didn't find this particular batch worthy of high praise. Besides the slight dryness, flavour was mild and some notes lost it a bit after some time. The bag appeal, burn quality, and potency did seem to make up somewhat, but at end of day, it was just average for me with all things considered. Overall Rating: 7.6/10
