Zangria x Gelonade - Trichomies
I got to try the Zangria x Gelonade hybrid the first time about a year and a half ago as Fruit Stand from B’s Trees, but this is the first time I’ve gotten to try it as rosin thanks to Beast Coast Terps out of Queens. I’ve always appreciated that this hybrid had killer potency and a complex effects and together with a killer lemon grease flavor makes for something that ought to be center ring for a while.
Cranberry Z - Michelin Terps
Trying award winning hash is always a pleasure, but trying award winning jam diamonds from a brand from Massachusetts, the debut for that state in any of my reviews, has got to be one of the biggest ESPN stat moments I’m publishing yet. Another one from the ADHDDEAD 420 celebrations, Cranberry Z is one that I’ve tried in hyrids a couple of times but this I think is also the first time I’ve tried it on its own.
MurdaBand - Misty’s Melts
Of all the things I’ve been hype to smoke so far this year, MurdaBand is at the top of my list, or at least it was until I tried it. MurdaBand is a hybrid of MattaBand x Sowahh bred by Flavor Farming and has been blown up by everyone in the Flavor Farming squad, including this prime spec rosin from Misty’s Melts. Ever since I smelled the flower for the first time in December, I was in love with the way it burned my nostrils, which is what I appreciate from any Sour line strain.
Z From the Vault - Helios Hash x ADHDDEAD
ADHDDEAD usually tees up some hype collaborations for his events, but maybe the most impressive one to date both in spectacle and quality is Z From the Vault with Helios Hash. What’s outside the jar from Justin Lovato and myself is barely a preview of how sick the rosin on the inside is
Biscotti Chunks - Terpy Dabber house rosin Tier 1
Terpy hooked it up with some of the new house rosin he’s carrying to get a bit of feedback, and I’m happy to report that it’s very good. I got to try Biscotti Chunks, which ended up being some grape terps that really hit the spot. It’s a Cannarado jawn, this time Biscotti Sundae x Fatso and it’s mostly grape candy and funk.
Brides Maid - Moon Valley Cannabis
first heard of Moon Valley from Loadin’ Buckets, who mentioned the brand had some really cool stuff, and he was not wrong. They delivered some really impressive living soil hash, from novel genetics and I’m glad I got to try this flavor specifically off terpy dabber’s menu. Brides Maid is a hybrid of Wedding Crasher x Ninetails cut Hindu Kush, which brings together old school and modern terps in a very tasteful way.
Tropaya - Flavor Farming
The flavor is much more “trop” than “paya,” which personally I prefer but others might prefer more sharp funk off the nose. Like everything else off Shmu’s selection of Flavor Farming samples, this stuff smokes smooth and clean, which is appreciate for rosin at this price point. The hallmark of this sample though is the effects which are super slumpy and full bodied.
Struckleburst - Upward Organics
I’ve only gotten to try Upward Organics a few times, but every time I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the experience and specifically the flavor. The smoothness has been great, the luster is incredible and it’s safe to say they’re in the upper echelon of sungrown producers on the east coast
Acapulco Gold - Dungeon Valley Farm
Let’s not beat around the bush here, Dungeon Valley’s Acapulco Gold is not the hue you’d expect from very good rosin, but I want to ask readers to suspend their disbelief to the level of the plot of basically any film where Dolph Lundgren is cast. Immediately when you open the jar, you’re met with stinky lime rinds, allspice and pine in a way that keeps up with today’s bleeding edge hash genetics.
Maple Dunks - Dungeon Valley Farm
Dungeon Valley was gracious enough to let me sample another couple of grams of his hash, starting with Maple Dunks. This strain is one of Bloom hybrids, so naturally it hashes the way you’d expect. It’s a hybrid of Gary Payton x Black Maple and right off rip you notice ripe gassy grape coming off the gooey blonde dollop.
Tropikarma - Flavor Farming
When you hear Trop most of the time, you think bright citrus terps, but this one is much more of a mild blood orange with notes of cherry and a lot of fuel. The effect is also refreshing, relaxing and reminds me of the way a frozen drink and a warm breeze feels.
DOUBLE FEATURE - Flavor Farming II
Two more excellent additions to the Flavor Farming tier 2 lineup
Sour Rainbowz - Tuna Melts 710
Maywood made some big waves a couple of years ago with Pomelo Anderson from their house brand Fioré, and they remain putting out products that actually give Cookies a good reputation. Sour Rainbowz is one of the six available from their most recent drop, and after trying it I could definitely see this brand becoming more popular in the Cali METRC scene.
Strawberry Punch #2 - Fresh Squeeze x Symbiotic Genetics
This jar also excited me quite a bit when I saw it when it debuted at the end of last year part because of the bisexual lighting motif on the label but also because Symbiotic has created some legendary strains including Mimosa. This seems to be a hybrid with their Purple Punch F2 x Strawguava, and the hybrid makes for a formidable smoke.
Jelly Mochi- Dungeon Valley Farm
Dungeon Valley and I met online where I recognized the Rainbow House gear he was running, and he especially recommended the Hella Jelly line for the specific selection having a proper fruity floral flavor to them, compared to the pas versions being like of Great Value cough medicine with a tinge of basic gas.
Strawberry Pie - Flavor Farming
Another excellent addition to the Flavor Farming tier 2 lineup
Chem D x Wedding Cake - Hiker Trash
st like any sample where I was only able to picture a small amount in the jar, I enjoyed this a lot, and am super excited for whatever the next Hiker Trash sample is that makes it to the stash.
Berry Blossom - Hash Kitty
I chose Berry Blossom because it smelled pretty clearly of Z notes, and in my opinion Z rosin has the highest quality ceiling. The rosin arrived pretty saucy, which I would knock for just about any other strain, but is par for the course in the Z part of the gene pool. If you had Super Dope Brand’s rosin in 2022 and 2023, this flavor reminds me of Mega Z Blue or Mega Z Red.
DOUBLE FEATURE - Flavor Farming
Two excellent additions to the Flavor Farming tier 2 lineup
Gelonade - Sour Wavez
An intersection of two things that have been on my bucket list for a while, getting Sour Wavez hash in the stash and trying Gelonade as rosin, this product is a huge treat before even opening the jar, so major shout out to LeFlame for making that happen for me.
