Strain Encounters: Orange Cookies Trial #1
FLAVOR PROFILE
A sweet and woody taste with the mouthfeel of caramel, thick on the back of the tongue. While the citrus doesn’t pop, a fruity diesel flavor lingers throughout the smoke.
TLDR
A medium-light smoke that was perfect for an afternoon of relaxation and self reflection on the beach in Phuket. One joint got me feeling right and the second boosted my high to levels of euphoria that elevated my mood and stimulated my mental state
SMOKING METHOD
2 hand rolled joints using Mascotte rolling papers and tips, and Orange Cookies from Phuket High.
EFFECTS
Within a few short minutes of sparking this little number, my nerves were noticeably calmed and a wave of relaxation overtook my body and mind. As my perception of reality slowed, my senses opened, allowing me to reach a level of comfort that put my full being at ease.
EXPERIENCE
My hardly anticipated, yet personally hyped first strain encounter trial for Cannabox required a local touch. This self imposed expectation led me to puff on local buds at Nui Beach, and explore my high in true Phuket fashion. My friend and I found a hidden bench overlooking the beach and lit up a number loaded with Orange Cookies from Jungle Farms.
As the high settled in, the oceanside gem that engulfed me felt more visually pronounced than before having smoked. Colors felt highly contrasted as shade met sunshine and visual saturations opened my mind to the charm of each moment. As everyone spends their life chasing the perfect moment, the Orange Cookies showed me that we can’t get lost in thoughts around the future or past, but instead do our best to live and breathe in the current times we share together.
The high accelerated my thoughts, making it difficult to focus on the immediate nature of my physical state. As a remedy to a rapid fire mental state, stretching out in the sun helped bring about a growing euphoria. It wasn’t long before the cannabis had me yearning for a dip in the sea. As I waded into the waters of Nui Beach, the sand beneath my feet felt extremely distinct with grains sifting between my toes. The cadence of the crashing waves sent me into a hypnotic high, as thoughts came and went with ease. The cannabis sent me to a stress free and elevated head space that allowed me to get out above any stress or negativity.
As the high faded so did the cognitive merriment and delight, settling down into a more relaxed body high. Moving a bit slow, but with intent, I found myself seeking a bean bag chair overlooking the beach with some Pad Krapow Moo and the company of a good friend. This comfortable reflective moment was the perfect come down to a balanced multi-hour high at the beach. As I prepared for my journey home, the Orange Cookies helped remind me to inhale, exhale, and feel blessed to pass the god plant to the ones you love.
