These two strains were my last pickup, I really enjoyed the Faberge OG between these two.
Faberge OG:
Bred and grown by Russian Assassin Boyz
Genetics: Superdank OG x Grape Gusher x Monster Cookies
I/H/S: H
Purchased at Super Clinik
Paid: $11/g
Aroma: Lemon zest, gas, pine, coffee
Taste: Lemon, hops, wood, earth, sweet spice
High: Spacey, relaxing, and fairly heavy -- starts behind the eyes after a few moments and spreads to the rest of the body after a little bit, delivering nice pain relief. Very enjoyable indica dominant hybrid effect but not too heavy for daytime use thanks to the euphoric and cerebral headspace.
Overall: Fairly dense, chunky, and nicely sticky buds. Trimming looks nice. It grinds up easily in my grinder and vapes smoothly in the Vapcap. The high is enjoyably heavy but not disabling. I like the taste, a nice combination of old school OG and exotic flavors. I will definitely try some more stuff by this grower at this price and quality.
MAC:
Bred by Capulator
Grown by CannaSavvy
Genetics: Alien Cookies x (Columbian x Starfighter)
I/H/S: I
Purchased at Super Clinik
Paid: $11/g
Aroma: Orange juice, lemon cleaner, undertones of grape sweetness -- together it's almost like Trix cereal
Taste: Citrus dominant with herbaceous and berry undertones
High: Serious indica, one of the heaviest I have had in a while. Very relaxing and sedating, I could feel my eyes get low after the first hit on the Vapcap. After the whole bowl I was ready to melt into a couch. Mellow, calm, and relaxing headspace. Good for the end of the day, wouldn't use it if I had something to do!
Overall: Dense cookies-like nug structure dotted with flecks of purple. Nice coating of resin too, it's definitely got bag appeal. The cure is good, as is the trimming--it grinds and vapes very smoothly. Overall, I like the quality of the product and will try some more by this grower.
I don't take it for granted, moving out to Cali from an illegal state was a great move for me. To go from being dry for 6+ months after my dealer moved away to being able to get this stuff easily was a revelation. The joy of being young and rootless!
