Punch Drunk // [Full Gallery] https://imgur.com/a/eAGbW3a

Beneath this unhealthy blanket of resin glands is a 50/50 split between pale lime green and a midnight blue stripped of most saturation; appearing black at times. Rich, mocha hairs work their way out of a dense and tacky bud texture that is crisp and uniform on the outside while still keeping that Velcro grip once exposed. Slow pull and snap.

A little effort is needed to help your grinder chew through this one but doing so brings about a robust expression of the lineage with sweet, dank and Kush-heavy terpenes being grandfathered in through the Purple Punch genetics. A slight musk hangs around the back here but the most notable aroma would be matrimony of artificial grapes and candied blueberries that dominates the palate and truly defines the “Punch” aspect of this flower. A mouthwatering concoction of flavour and gasoline that translate into the smoke with 100% efficiency.

This is another strain that leaves your lips tingling and your mouth reminiscent of all the flavours that were present. You ever pick up a clean bong after just one hit of zaza to notice that the smell has just permeated into everything, practically yelling at you? I could stand six feet away from my grinder and that wouldn’t make a difference here, these terps are so pronounced and would impress even the more stingy consumers.

Very little time goes by before the onset of effects takes place; simply commanding your mind to drop everything and smell the damn roses for once. Once the overwhelming rushes die down, your mind and body cruise into a complete vibe that just seems to melt everything away. At higher doses this becomes quite narcotic but if kept mindful, this is well suited for social use due to reduced inhibitions and its relaxed nature. Recommended for veterans only.

With outright obese resin glands being the main visual driver, modest foxtails, healthy orange hairs and jaded blue sugar leaves act as passengers in this 4-seater driving straight into a garlic sunset. The cure is impeccable, buds are oily and sticky that bring with them no noticeable harshness when burned as well as translating that signature GMO funk into a tasty and rewarding smoke.

There is a deep level of complexity here as users may be familiar with the garlic / musk - driven aroma that usually comes with GMO, but here you’re able to pick up hints of burnt rubber, mothballs, spice and pepper; something that’s almost reminiscent of teriyaki sauce in a way. The overhang of musk is really prominent here and reminds me so much of going into an unfinished basement with cold concrete floors and walls, perhaps one filled with old cardboard storage boxes. Or opening an old book; the particular smell that comes with paper too accustomed with time itself.

Not much around that smokes smoother in my opinion, with the exception of Khalifa Mints. This stuff is flavourful on the palate, a breeze in the lungs and really heavy on the effects - so it’s easy to see why she’s making waves as one of the best representations of GMO we have available on our market. Without playing too much into the sedative side, this flower has proven itself to be a potent daily driver that finds a way to compliment just about any situation with such inoffensive and pleasant effects. A clean, long lasting buzz that’s not debilitating is a necessity for my stash and although I would like to see some prior disclaimer from Vendors about bud size, I felt like this mostly measured up to the tag and you’d be silly not to try this at least once.

This batch produced medium to large sized buds and have once again been cured to complete perfection; rendering us with a crispy exterior that snaps apart to reveal virtually no stem whatsoever. Thick inner resin glands contribute to a pleasant tackiness when handling these buds and while some of the outer heads may have not survived the transportation - in no way does that impact the category I would place this flower in simply based off the terpene profile alone. This is a clear cut quad with craft qualities that will leave you completely incapacitated off just a few bowls.

Which is a nice little Segway into the next category: the smoke and effects. It was pretty apparent there would be a clean smoke here once I was able to make out the texture and humidity content of the flower, and I was right. Each bowl brings a smooth and barely noticeable exhale that is chalk full with tropical fruit and skunky kush flavours that linger on your tongue for a good while after smoking. Seriously it’s hard to believe how strong these terps are.⁠


Immediately, the potency breaks you in half like Connor’s ankle and leaves you practically shaking as waves of serotonin flow through your veins - almost too much to handle at times. Once the initial body rush settles down, the high evens out into a balanced ride between heady and body-oriented that gives you varied levels of productivity based on your state going in. Meaning, if you are already tired going into this bud; it won’t wake you up because it is so potent. It will gently caress you back to sleep like Sandman, or someone running their fingers through your hair. On the contrary, if you have lots of stamina going into this buzz it will only serve as a compliment to that energy, helping to boost creativity while still keeping a calm and relaxed approach. My only gripe is again, the potency (is that even a gripe?). Even if I’m wide awake this flower is so strong that I would constantly pendulum swing between being focused and completely spacing out at a wall, so low tolerance users really have to play it safe in these waters. Jer does not f*ck around man.
