Bordello - Green Belly Co-Op
Appearance
Very dry. Muted and dark green with a bit of purpling that wasn’t apparent until closer inspection. When under the scope a rainbow of colors are visible, from yellows and light greens to royal purple and red hairs. Looks and smells like beasters from back in the day from afar. Not much of anything special, just a blocky tight nug with not much visible trich coverage. When under the scope though, the trichs are pretty intact and beautiful, with over 25% ambers. Very pretty bud up close, can see the Blackberry influence for sure, pity it isn’t more outwardly apparent… appeal would be an 8.5 or so if it were up-close only.
Aroma
Just smells grassy in the bag, again reminds of “beasters” [B.C. standard mid-90s], develops slightly when ground to a herby and slightly skunky smell.
Flavor
Not particularly flavorful, I’d place it in the slightly sweet and herby category. A very smooth smoke with medium expansion. I got more flavor on the 2nd IncrediBowl than the first.
Effect
General relaxation, mild pain relief, clear-headed relief.
Overall
I still think this is a sativa dominant pheno of this cross. That, or it’s just a barely indica dominant, as it was very clear-headed. It definitely gives a nice body high, but that isn’t the primary feeling (that would be the mellow head high). It kept us well aware and alert throughout the experience, never felt heavy or “stoned”. In many ways it was very similar to the CCH Bordello we reviewed previously, but this one had a much “clearer” experience cerebrally. The body highs were almost exact matches.
