[Ganjawest] Bluefin Tuna Hybrid Indica Review | 3.9/5 | Original Review
We've seen a lot of tuna-strains before and know what to expect from them .. usually more diesely/fishy but the real nice ones are the ones that are crossed with something sweet/unique. This one was rated at up to 14-20% and priced about average.
These buds were very well trimmed, neat, pretty crystally and almost no red hairs. They had a lighter color down to the center and average density.
Typical of the other tuna strains it smelt very dark, diesel, fish and was even stronger once cracked open.
It ground up to a lighter color overall, pretty sticky but you could tell one bud was very dense... filling up almost half a grinder. Only after it was ground up did you REALLY smell the diesel, so much so it was overprowering
Vaping it at low temps was a typical soapy/perfumy flavor but cranking it up we started to get really really bitter, diesel, dark and slight hints of fishyness/sweetness in between some tokes. It wasn't super unique but what you'd expect from a bud of this name. The taste remained throughout the vape session which was nice, it didn't disappear in 30 sec like we've seen other strains.
Burning left a darker ash with some light grey. It was a tad bit on the harsher side of things but had lots of smoke and ok-lightness on the lungs. On the plus side you could really taste that bitter/diesel flavor even when putting a flame to it. My only complaints was that it could have been a bit smoother.
The effects kicked in immediately (slow and low) But eventually after 10 mins or so fully kicked in. It's MUCH more 50/50 hybrid/indica feeling (rather than hybrid indica) as it doesnt really give you couch lock but instead gets you moving around, creative, determined. At the same time the indica evens it out and kind of makes you brain dead / forgetful. Interesting overall effects and what I believe to be a good synergy between the two and accurate to the mid-high THC range mentioned.
In the end I'd say we have a good looking bud, expected taste/smell, strong but good balance effects, yet a bit harsh. If it was crossed with something else AND smoother it would be a big plus but otherwise it's what you'd expect from a good diesel-y strain if you haven't tried yet.
