Nose 8.5/10

Unbroken, it's Parm and cheese heavy, and I'm assuming it's a GMO cross. I could smell it out of the jar from about an inch and a half away, just wafting a sweet garlic funk. Broken up, it turns into a creamy funk with a sweet onion and garlic citrus middle, almost like a vinegar cleansing product. Ground, it leads with more pine, earthy cream and lime.

Taste 3.7/10

It has a really creamy sweet pull, salivatingly earthy, with a slight tang. It really doesn't want to combust correctly, canoeing in parts even with the same rolling conditions and not wanting to fully light at the intro. At the first third its flavor gets better and mixes well with its sweetness. By two thirds it starts to drop in flavor. It tries to pop the sweet citrus and lime forward, but the pulls come out hot and grassy. The ash was salt and pepper to dark grey.

High 3.7/10

I felt nothing for the first 10 minutes after finishing the joint, since it was too light to notice. It led to a soft head high that passed by without me clocking the start or the landing.

A different nose from what I'm used to in most candies. It leads Parm and cheese with a sweet garlic funk, and breaking it up brings back a funky, creamy nose I can pinpoint before it goes pine, earthy cream and lime once ground. The taste was okay, with a creamy sweet pull that got better and mixed well with its sweetness around the first third. The bad ash ruined it for me, along with the final stretch, where the flavor dropped and the pulls came out hot and grassy. It didn't want to combust correctly, canoeing in parts, and the high was so light it passed by without me clocking the start or the landing.
