Off the jar it's a little bit brighter sweet and still very soft, with a limey, almost cilantro sweet note that reminds me of a taco spot with lime drenched on top. Raw it's a soft sweetness with a citrusy peel nose. Breaking it down it goes into a cereal like note, a milky, almost cinnamon apple nose that reminded me a lot of Crunch Berries. Broken up it's a lot sweeter, a creamy, citrusy apple nose with almost a mango peach to it, bright but still very close to the buds. On the grind the lime note is a lot louder, mainly a ripe rind lime with a little strawberry-ish sweetness in the background, though it's softer on the grind than it was on the breakup. It smells like Apple Jacks, a cinnamony apple with a little lime in the back end, but it's so contained into the flower that you have to put your nose right next to it. There's nothing nasty or off-putting about it.
This one did not want to light, and that first bite was scorched mixed with charred, an abhorrent intro. It doesn't want to combust fully, and it has a little fruit bite with that cinnamon apple note from the nose, trying its best to turn into smoke. It got smoother and clearer, and halfway through the inhale gets better, like the initial smell, a nice fruity coat. There's no palate stain, since it goes away and leaves only a slight sweetness, mainly herbal. Later it gets a bit more flavorful and adds a little coat on the end with some sweet funkiness, but there's nothing to write home about. The ash is salt and pepper and didn't get any better. In the last stretch it started canoeing and lost nearly all its flavor, so I turned it off.
I didn't clock the onset, so I'm marking it not clocked. At about 20 minutes it's a light mental high, slightly tired, with a slight pressure pulling me down. It slowly builds around the 28 minute mark and gets a little heavier, with tired pressure on the forehead bringing me downwards from the upper body to the middle region. It didn't do much, and it was really light even while it was bringing the pressure down. It landed around the 47 minute mark.
F8 had a bright, soft fruit nose in the jar, a cereal like Crunch Berries and Apple Jacks cinnamon apple with lime that stays close to the flower. The smoke did not match it, with a scorched and charred intro, a stubborn light, a salt and pepper ash and a canoe in the last stretch. The high was light, a mental buzz with tired pressure that never went far. I called this the worst entry of the bunch, even worse than F7, and the nose is the best part of it.
