got delivered yesterday afternoon & ive been busy so didnt get a chance to open the package until i sat down to watch the match last night,
had a quick check on the scales which all were fine, i took a quick photo of each one and banged them straight into jars,
will update on here when ive had a chance to get properly stuck into each one for a full review.

first impressions on the nose was mostly promising, all of them except 1 was nice and terpy...
black zoap (which still looks nice btw) was the only one that didnt fully appeal straight out of the bag, got a faint sweet zoapy scent at first but a generic chemically/irradiated weed aroma took over after a few minutes.. i can only hope a couple of bovedas might save it and bring it back to life slightly (knew it was chance to be like that as reviews been very mixed but took the risk anyway as ive loved zoap the only other time i had it lol)

my first review ive written on here and also first time trying a non irradiated strain from Upstate - small-medium nugs light appearance, a little on the dry side (58% humidity according to my cheap amazon hygrometer), buds feel dense but not overly compacted, fluffs up nicey in the grinder,

smell was nice straight away when breaking the seal.. i mostly seem to find Upstate's other irradiated strains to have a slightly sickly chemically smell at this point until theyve aired out a bit & had some time in a jar with a boveda but this was way better on first impressions

Smells of a creamy & piney kush up front with a minty / earthy note in the background, the smell translates over to the flavour very well piney with a minty aftertaste on the ball vape,

personally i find it to be a nicely balanced hybrid buzz, kind of upbeat vibrant & heady whilst having a bit of an indica hit on the backend at the same time adding a nice droop to the eyelids

there is 1 Photo with Flash On & 1 Without Flash
