Top 10 Gourmet Cannabis Strains
Top 10 'Gourmet' Cannabis Strains
For the past few decades now people in the UK haven't really questioned what cannabis strain they're getting when they buy from a dealer (read: Grit Weed). We're just happy to get some nice bud, right? Unless you grow your own supply, you're at the mercy of the dealers. Times are changing, the explosion in home grown weed is bringing about the end of "one strain fits all" mentality.
Smokers are demanding more variety, different highs and individual flavours. So, what are the best cannabis strains to smoke and enjoy if time, money and external forces were not factors? These strains are the best of the best!
10. Durban Poison (Dutch Passion)
An athlete among cannabis strains. Everybody remembers the first time they tried this; it most likely blew them away. It's a strong creeper high that you won't notice until you're finding new meaning in Pink Floyd tracks. The taste is a sort of piney fruit with a liquorice kick to it. Quite underrated by smokers today.
9. Cannalope Haze (DNA Genetics)
The master breeders at DNA have made something special here. This sativa is seriously fruity and will leave your mouth watering with the taste of melon and citrus fruits. Extremely potent; the buds are cloaked in THC crystals. A strain you can smoke all day and perform very creative things with.
8. L.A. Confidential (DNA Genetics)
One of the few Indica strains on this list; it deserves to be here. The epitome of a great Indica. Extraordinarily hard hitting body buzz that goes down as smooth as silk. The buds are chunky and fat, but look tasty enough to eat! The odour is green and piney.
7. Super Silver Haze (Mr. Nice)
A very heady buzz that will creep up on you and have you bouncing around the place! Very energetic and creative high. The buds are really silver with some lime green in there. The smell is piney and spicy. This strain will keep you going for a long time, one of the best all day smokes around.
6. Lemon Skunk (DNA Genetics)
This is another award winning strain from DNA. A sativa strain that produces multi-coloured buds with orange hairs. The taste is fruity with a very strong citrus kick to it. Bud appeal is high with this one, as the smell is a pleasant piney lemon. Uplifting and energetic high that will leave you wanting more and more.
5. OG Kush (DNA Genetics)
This is massive in California at the moment. One of the best Indica strains ever created. The odour is very, very strong. From the first toke you'll instantly know how good this weed really is, it will leave you smelling to high heaven no matter what you use to smoke it.
4. Black Domina (Sensi Seeds)
A very unique strain. This Indica beast smells similar to hash oil and a sort of plastic, it's probably not something you wouldn't want to smoke - you couldn't be more wrong. The taste is very hazy that goes down really smooth. The effects are very fast, it hits like a sledgehammer and you'll be out of it in no time.
3. Kali Mist (Serious Seeds)
Arguably one of the top Sativa strains ever bred, came very close to being #1. Chances are you won't be able to buy this in the UK, it's a strain that growers save for themselves. The fabled high of this variety is cerebral, creative and social.
2. Ice Cream (Paradise Seeds)
This new strain is breaking ground in every sense! the smell, look, taste and high are nothing that has come before it. The taste is one of creamy vanilla that is very sweet; like sugar on the end of your tongue. Very potent, it will leave you on the floor with your head buzzing.
1. Jack Herer (Sensi Seeds)
A strain that leaves regular smokers repeating "fuckin... hell... im... stoned... man". We've seen many experienced stoners refuse a second toke of this, and that's saying something! One of the finest Sativas available, it's effects have been compared to LSD many times.
