Island Sweet Skunk - Cannabis Kings - April 2021
https://imgur.com/a/ZkBo3WV This Island Sweet Skunk arrived in medium sized, fluffy buds that sport a light and airy structure. Pale green in colour with a bit of a yellowish hue, followed by long, peach-pink hairs. Nothing to write home about in terms of looks but It's quite frosty and greasy, making for a super sticky to the touch texture. It has quite a bit of extra leaf however and I had to pluck off a bunch before tossing it in the grinder. Unlike the name implies, there is nothing sweet about this skunk as it's the pungent, cheesy type. It's almost offensive like a blue cheese but still oddly enticing (if you're a fan of cheese strains), followed by some woody undertones. I didn't find the taste to be cheesy as much as it is herbal and peppery, paired with hints of sweet skunk on exhale. It isn't harsh but it's definitely punchy with it's acrid, lung expanding smoke, burning with a hefty resin ring and salt and pepper coloured ash. An instant cerebral high that hits right off the bat like skunk strains tend to do. It starts off as clear headed and even a little focused before it transitions into more of a spaced out stone. Not the type of buzz to just sit and do nothing as I felt the need to stay active and functional with it's energetic effects. Other than it's robust smoke it makes the perfect wake and bake when needing a potent sativa kick.
