Smoking session review of the Jack Herer cannabis strain released by Platinum Reserve.

Transcript

SPEAKER_01 0:03

Somebody tiny house somebody. With your house. Skipper. And we're back with Gigglin' Highland. Today we are reviewing Jack Herrera by Platinum Reserve.

SPEAKER_02 0:27

Platinum Reserve, a subsidiary of HPI Canna Inc. in Poughkeepsie, New York. Founders are experts in cannabis and hospitality industries. You can find it in New York and Washington State, making it a mini MSO. They sell flour and pre-rolls, and their boxes come in three colors denoting type. Indica sativa or hybrid. Definitely.

SPEAKER_01 0:50

Jack Herrera, which is a classic stream, but information on the net is all over the place. So we have various sources of info, so bear with us. Jack Herrera could either be a pure sativa or a hybrid of Haze, Northern Lights number five, and Shiva Skunk. A little menage à toi there. Top terps are caryophylline, mercine, and humoline. Top effects are focus, energetic, and creative. Top flavors could be pine, woody, and earthy, or citrus, lemon, and sweet. THC values are as follows: 18% according to Leafly, 15 to 24% according to all bud, and a hefty 28.4% according to Platinum Reserve. And that was confirmed in the COA, folks.

SPEAKER_02 1:36

As far as this particular strain, it came to us in this 3.5 ounce clear glass jar that comes inside of a purple box. And this usually retails anywhere between $35 and $50. We got this particular box at High Road in Fresh Meadows, Queens. That's right on Horace Harding Expressway, right off 186th Street. Make sure to pay them a visit, folks.

SPEAKER_01 1:58

Definitely.

SPEAKER_02 1:59

I think we're ready to smoke this. I mean, no, I think we're ready to roll this first.

SPEAKER_01 2:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 2:04

Ready to roll? We're ready. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_01 2:06

Let's do it. We're back with the roll. That's right, the roll. Skip, how did it go? Well, it broke kind of even there, pro. And that means it was enough for the show. One fat joint and one decent blunt. And there's possibly enough for one little round.

SPEAKER_02 2:30

Yeah, there is. We like when there's something left over. And as far as look, we have dark greens, lime greens, yellows, and orange hairs. Smallish to medium-ish size buds. Very, very supple. Golden colored powder tricombs coating those buds. Turps were popping. Yeah. Piny and Woody. So it looks like the first flavor set that Skip had is looks like the more accurate one as of this point. And this particular package was packaged two months ago. Oh, very fresh. Now let's find out how fresh. Ready to smoke it? We're ready. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_03 3:14

Oh.

SPEAKER_02 3:15

Yeah, my first impression was like piney and woody. Maybe a touch of earthy. I didn't get any citrus or lemon or sweet.

SPEAKER_01 3:23

So. Yeah, neither did I. It's mostly piney, woody. A bit skunky.

SPEAKER_02 3:29

Yeah, that's pretty much it. Piney and woody. Yeah. It's not too heavy. So um, you know, maybe it's uh mild. Once we smoke it, well, let's find out. Man, I'm trying to hold out. Yeah, it's like a mild piney, yeah. Mild woody. It looks like uh, I think that was Leafly that said that one. It looks like they have the more accurate flavor profile. Yeah. The carry's not really that strong for now. Uh, it's not hitting you right in the back of the throat like a lot of carry strains do. And uh, yeah, just rolling right with it. Uh, just a few things. Uh, as you know, platinum reserve is a subsidiary of HPI Canna. And HPI Canna, it seems to us, is one of the bigger um dispensary or brands um here in New York State. They are from New York State. Uh, it they do say that they um they like I said, that they're also in Washington State, which was that's kind of random, right? Really, just all the way across the country. But hey, you do it however you can do it, right? So that's a mini MSO for us.

SPEAKER_01 4:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 4:53

Um, some of the brands you do know well. Um, so for example, probably their most well-known brand, HPI Canna, is Dank by definition.

SPEAKER_01 5:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 5:04

Uh that's very ubiquitous in New York uh dispensaries. In fact, even more so than platinum reserve. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. And uh another one is 40 tons, which is usually like large-sized uh bags. Yeah. Uh they have good times, which are pre-roll joints, blunts, and edibles. They're called good times in New York. They have Drew Martin, which is a botanically blended pre-roll, artisanal pre-rolls.

SPEAKER_01 5:37

Fancy, fancy.

SPEAKER_02 5:39

They have Ruby Farm, which is vibrational products. Oh, I don't know what that is. Then they have Chef for Hire, which is cannabinoid infused foods. So they have Chefs. Yeah, it's culinary lifestyle brand. Wow, that's very interesting. I've never actually tried anything like that. Right. Aside from like, you know, edibles and brownies, but they're like saying they make like oils and honeys and jellies. Yeah, that's pretty interesting. And then they have punch edibles.

SPEAKER_01 6:10

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02 6:11

They're the ones that make punch. Which they offer five flavors: blueberry lemonade, peach, mango, kiwi, strawberry, cherry, limeade, and tropical punch. That's in that six flavors. Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. Blueberry lemonade is one flavor. Okay, got it, got it. And so those are the edibles that they offer. So that's uh HPI Canna Inc. Pretty big, they do a lot, and they are New York based, yeah, but it looks like they're starting to branch out a little bit. So, yeah, so that was an interesting um thing about platinum reserve. That carry's still there, right on top there. You know, it's funny, it's not affecting me. No, it's not affecting me, or maybe more like a little dryness. Jack Herrera, the strain itself is I and I just read this myself. I should know this actually. I'm a little ashamed that I didn't know this before. But uh it's named after Jack Herrera, which was um is a well-known uh marijuana uh activist for legalization. Okay, and uh, you know, he really he really was out there fighting for for a long time. If uh he created a website, was it a website or was it a uh I know he wrote a book called The Emperor Wears No Clothes, and it has to do about like the scam behind marijuana the criminalization and the villainization of marijuana and that he believed that there was a lot of things, good things that marijuana could do, right? And that you know, um it could replace a lot of things that we use today. Oh, absolutely. Much more safer, much more uh better for our health. And he really believed in this. Um, what was the name of the his organization? But yeah, he just passed away, if I recall correctly, uh it's not uh maybe 10 years ago. Okay. 10, 15 years ago. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 8:14

So uh he was uh uh an advocate, a very forward advocate.

SPEAKER_02 8:19

Of legalization and normalization of marijuana and all the things that you can get out of the cannabis plant. Right. You know, when you think of the cannabis plant, we always just think about smoking weed. But the cannabis plant is actually very useful in a lot of ways. You can make clothing out of it, you can make rope out of it. Right, there's a lot of things you can do with um the fibers of the cannabis plant.

SPEAKER_01 8:43

And we know we, you know, everybody knows that now, but I'm sure in his time when he was spreading the the Yeah, it was just like public knowledge, you know, right, and maybe even hidden knowledge too.

SPEAKER_02 8:54

And so I remember that one of the larger uh you know seeds companies at the time, they made a strain and they named it after him. Okay, so it's an homage to his kind of an homage. And they uh what I was reading today is like it's recognized that now there's a lot of different Jack Carreras out there, okay, and that that was okay. The idea is that every Jack Carrer out there, in a way, is a tribute to his efforts.

SPEAKER_01 9:23

And that makes sense because researching the strain itself for today's podcast was not an easy thing because there was different information every and now it made sense why because it's not Jack Herrera's not just one strain, not one thing, right?

SPEAKER_02 9:39

It's supposed to make you feel a certain way, and then if you can figure out with different strains how to do that, right, you can argue you have a Jack Herrera, according to what I read. Okay, that makes sense. So getting back to the actual strain, Jack Herrera. Um, it looks like it's time for our first uh effect check. And uh yeah, so focused. Are you feeling focused, Skip? Not more than usual, not yet, at least. Energetic, not yet, creative, not yet. Man, those are you know, not for nothing. These are difficult effects to try to quantify, yeah. Very difficult effects to quantify. Maybe focus is not as difficult. Energetic is so rare, yeah, that when it happens, like you really feel it. You're like, wow, it's such a big difference. Creative, that one is a tough one. Yeah, a secondary one that they said was euphoric. Are you feeling euphoric? Not at all, not at all. So are you anything you're feeling at this point?

SPEAKER_01 10:41

Right now, uh slight relaxation.

SPEAKER_02 10:44

Yeah, I can say the same thing. Like a little relaxed, you know, a little feel, you know, a little like if just got some weight off my shoulders. Yeah, yeah. I do feel that. All right, how about the flavors? We got piney woody earthy or citrus lemon sweet. Uh definitely the former, right? Definitely piney woody earthy. Yeah, I would agree with that also. Um, so that's where we're at so far. Uh, and yeah, just you know, tribute to Jack Herer in this show. The guy fought for it. Ah, I was called Hemp. Help end marijuana prohibition. Ah, that is weird. And he passed away in 2010. There you go. Okay. 2010 was when he passed away. He was known as the Emperor of Hemp. Well, Mr. Herrer, this one. This one is for you, my friend. Definitely. That's um hopefully the bud in heaven or wherever you are is a lot better.

SPEAKER_01 11:40

Oh, yeah. And I wonder what feeling is it that they're uh looking for when they name it as such. This one is still in the early stage here, this blunt, but I'm starting to get, I guess, that feeling of uh openness or maybe uh it's more of a downer. Oh, wow. It feels more like a of a downer. And actually, that goes that coincides with a lot of my former experiences that I can actually remember of Jack Herrer. You know, even in the street side, Jack Herr was never nothing fruity and nice, it never was, it was kind of a little rough, it had a little edge to it and dark, as I remember. And this one kind of falls in line with that undeterminate taste, more of a presence than a taste.

SPEAKER_02 12:24

Interesting. Well, we have tried various Jack Herrers for this show. Yeah, uh, you know, some we liked, some we didn't, right? Right. I can think of two specifically one we liked, one we didn't.

SPEAKER_01 12:37

Yeah, I guess that we generally like them. You know, we like weeds that you can actually feel and stuff like that. And Jack Herrera always seems to have that. They have a particular strength, some have power to it or weight to the high.

SPEAKER_02 12:52

So once you get over the initial little carry touch, because it's not even an edge, it's more like a touch. Uh it becomes a very smooth smoke. Yeah. Um, might be good for freshmen, might be good for casual smokers, you know, as long as you tell them in advance, listen, you're gonna taste like weed, it's not gonna taste like candy. Right. And uh, but other than that, I think they'll be okay with it. And yeah.

SPEAKER_01 13:15

Yeah, it's a decent smoke, it has some character to it.

SPEAKER_02 13:18

It is, it is. So, you know, we're we're enjoying it so far. Um, as far as the high, I do feel like something coming in, and it's it is kind of more in an indica kind of feel, even though it's a for me too, yeah. That relaxed thing. I know what you mean. It's like relaxed, but and then there's a little slight like heaviness in the relaxation. Yeah, it's like, yeah, pulling you down a little bit. Yeah, so it's not, I don't, I think what you meant, it's not that it's a downer, it's not gonna depress you or anything.

SPEAKER_01 13:49

No, not at all.

SPEAKER_02 13:49

It just has more like a kickback effect, it has like a drag, yeah, yeah. Like, and you just feel like you know, yeah. So like the stirrings of might maybe a might end up being a couch lock or something, right?

SPEAKER_01 14:02

And it seems like this phenotype will aim that way to give you uh that uh that real downer effect, but the THC values is not enough, you know, even at its highest point, which is what Platinum Reserve is claiming.

SPEAKER_02 14:16

It's 28.4. So you think it's more accurate to 18 from Leafly?

SPEAKER_01 14:21

I think so. I think so. And and it seems to be at least right now halfway in, more in detail.

SPEAKER_02 14:26

Hey, Leafly seems to be on the money, yeah, like on what they're doing. The only thing that I will say that Leafly disagrees with is the terps. They say it should lead with terpenaline. Okay, and then karyophyll, and then pinene. And we got karyophylline, mercy, and humiline, humiline. Well, the most evident oh pinene.

SPEAKER_01 14:49

Yeah, exactly. And the most evident, of course, is carry all the way down the middle.

SPEAKER_02 14:57

But it it has like a taste, a touch of pine. Yeah, it does. I'm like trying to remember if humilene has a pine. Kind of it might humiline might actually have a touch of the pine. So, platinum reserve. We've already done quite a few. What's your uh overall impression?

SPEAKER_01 15:22

Yeah, I you know, this is new to me, of course, but I'm not new to the API cana world.

SPEAKER_02 15:29

You mean HPI?

SPEAKER_01 15:30

HPI, I'm sorry. I keep saying API, but yes, HPI, thank you for the correction, definitely. And um, you know, that world is mainly dominated by Dank, and Dank is also another ubiquitous brand that has his own thing going, very colorful in its presentation and in its taste, a lot of fruity notes. Here we don't have that with Platinum Reserve, these are more earthy, more uh in tune with uh traditional marijuana kind of feels and tastes. Right. They s they call it their artisanal artisanal, right?

SPEAKER_02 16:00

Right. So and so I guess it's for the connoisseurs, or in other words, you know, the old smokers that smoked before it taste like candy.

SPEAKER_01 16:07

Yeah, so it has that taste. Well, I mean, it's to me of their version of it because a lot of those or these classic strains on the other side or the street side were a lot heavier, perhaps a bit darker. So definitely they're also trying to broaden their uh their touch there. I think they want some older folks, maybe even some new folks, you know, trying to get them back to that old school classic stuff. It's possible, quite possible.

SPEAKER_02 16:34

And speaking of classic stuff, it looks like we're ready for our second effect check. I might be doing it a little early, but why not? What do you think, Skip? Focused? No, energetic. Cha cha cha.

SPEAKER_01 16:50

I have to rethink that because that I just uh was trying to listen to everything I just said before, and that took a little energy there for me to go in there and uh that app description I just gave. So I it has to have some some brevity, maybe energy.

SPEAKER_02 17:06

All right, so he's saying energetic, folks. I don't feel it yet, but Skip says it. Creative. No, yeah, no, euphoric. We're gonna even add euphoric, euphoric, even though it's a it was supposedly a secondary, right?

SPEAKER_01 17:22

Right, but no, not yet. Euphoric requires a little bit more weight, uh more weed.

SPEAKER_02 17:31

Yeah, um and then we all we both agree that piny woody earthy is more accurate.

SPEAKER_01 17:36

Yeah, that's what you're gonna get with this one here.

SPEAKER_02 17:41

The burning is accelerating, and yeah, it's still the same taste. You know, at the second half.

SPEAKER_01 17:49

Yeah, yeah, the taste is consistent.

SPEAKER_02 17:51

Yeah, the high is is coming in. I do feel a high coming in. It's kind of like a fogginess in the frontal lobe. Yeah, you feel that like an expansion in the frontal lobe, definitely fogginess up top. And it's like all towards the front. I'm not getting uh too many body effects. Everything is pretty much the same as it was before we started. And uh so I don't think it's gonna be something with an anesthetic effect at this point. Alright. How's it going for you guys? I hope you're smoking with us. Let us know. Drop us a line. Don't forget, you can drop us a line at the comment section, or you can send us an email at gigalinhighland at gmail.com and we'll be ready to hear from you. Waiting to hear from you. Yeah, we'd love to hear from you guys. Hopefully you're smoking with us. That's the point of the show. And uh, or you know, just listening along is fine too. And yeah, we're just going through it, finishing the J and the blunt.

SPEAKER_01 18:51

Yeah, this one's nice. I like it.

SPEAKER_02 18:53

So, what are you seeing it uh being good for?

SPEAKER_01 18:56

Um maybe like an after-work thing. It's not that strong. So, you know, some people might require a bigger hammer, but this one's nice. I mean, comparing, you know, putting it together, I mean, with the smoke and the character, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 19:10

I feel like if it's one of those things, like, you know, it's it is after work, so you got you're chilling a little bit because you're not at work, but at the same time, like maybe you have something to do. Yeah. So if like you're cooking dinner, or if you're cleaning up, or you got laundry to do, or you have a task, this might be good for that. Yeah, I agree. Yeah. You'll feel a nice high, but at the same time, you you know, you'll feel like you'll be able to get that done. Yeah. And you'll also feel kind of like not rushed in doing anything that you're doing. You know, you feel like I said, the dangerous part, you kind of could lead into a couch lock thing if you let it go that route, but it's not a given that it's gonna end up there. You can actually use this productively. Yeah. Do I do you see somebody like going out with this Saturday night kind of thing?

SPEAKER_01 19:57

Yeah, if they if they don't want the high to overpower them, sure.

SPEAKER_02 20:02

I don't because of that little touch of the couch lockness. Like, I feel like you can't have any of that because that'll just make you like stall and you know, oh, like you'll be that you'll be the friend dragging everybody back.

SPEAKER_01 20:16

So you don't want to just get up and bust a move.

SPEAKER_02 20:19

Yeah, so I think you're better off, like Skip said earlier. This is something for like afterwork chill. Yeah, you know, I don't want to go to sleep, but at the same time, you know, I just want to chill out. It's good for that to me. Usually um, talking about uh dispensaries, high road is a newer dispensary. Uh and you know, dispensaries are coming up everywhere. You're having trouble keeping up. Yeah. Fast. Yeah. The other thing that's happening really fast is a lot of brands. So, and that's why we need you folks, uh, because we need to kind of hone in what brands we should be looking at or not looking at. Right. And uh, you know, just drop us a line, like always, like we always say. We would love to hear from you.

SPEAKER_01 21:05

How's it going for you, this guy? It's nice, it's nice. The high is the same high, it hasn't you know gotten any bigger. It's not a big high, but it's very prevalent and uh a little expansive, I think so. Yeah, yeah, more lateral, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:22

Yeah, it just feels like um like a wide open space inside your brain, but not like it's accelerating it in any particular direction. Yeah. But it's it's expansive, a wide open space.

SPEAKER_01 21:35

Yeah, it's nice. It lets you set the pace, which is at times is nice, you know.

SPEAKER_02 21:40

Which is the perfect time to segue into the final effect check. Uh so skip. Focused.

SPEAKER_01 21:48

Nope.

SPEAKER_02 21:51

Okay. Energetic, you said yes.

SPEAKER_01 21:55

Yeah, a little energy there. Creative. No, I don't think so. Euphoric. Not really. I mean, maybe if energetic a little bit more could step into that arena, but not right now.

SPEAKER_02 22:10

I am let's see. Focused. No, no, that one's not really hitting me. Energetic? I wasn't really getting energetic, but I'm not like un-energetic.

SPEAKER_01 22:22

Right.

SPEAKER_02 22:23

Uh creative. No. No, don't feel like drawing the Mona Lisa. Don't feel like, you know, drawing or building the Sistine Chapel. Yeah, no, not today. Euphoric. Uh do I feel euphoria? No, no, not that particularly. And we already agreed that citrus lemon sweet is out. Yeah. Pinewoody earthy is in. Even though earthy, not as much. It's mild. Right.

unknown 22:54

Mild.

SPEAKER_02 22:54

So don't think those are strong flavors. Very mild flavors. A good smoke for like casual smokers. Yeah. Or if you guys when they want to take quote unquote taste the weed. You know what I mean? Like, oh, I want to really taste the weed this time, Bobby. So I was like, yeah, okay. If you know they're like really not telling you the truth, and they'll stop smoking the moment you really give them something hard and they cough their half their lung out. You bring them this. You say, hey, yeah, this is real, this tastes like real weed. And you wink wink, you know.

SPEAKER_01 23:27

That's all right, though. If that's what platinum is going for, they hit it. Because that's that's all right.

SPEAKER_02 23:32

I love your jars inside your boxes. I think it's beautiful that someone could take the jar out of the package and look at all the bud, one shot, because the jar itself is all clear except for the cap. The cap is black and just the letters, platinum. That's it. It's very nicely uh platinum reserved. It's very nicely packaged. One small caveat, my friends. Please, please, please, on the bottom of the jars, on the top of the jar, on the cap, put another one of the sticker labels because if you take these things out of the boxes, three or four of them at the same time, you will confuse them. They don't have any marking that will differentiate them. So, or don't throw out the box. You know how that's like we have the tendency to do that right away. Throw out the box. And so, yeah, don't throw out the box if you're gonna, you know, you're gonna want to know which one it is, and you have more than one platinum reserve in your stash, or play weed Russian roulette, see what you get. Yeah, but the problem with that is that then you say, Wow, I really like this one. Right. You don't know what it is. Which one was that? Exactly. So, yeah. Yeah. So I have no problem smoking four different weeds and uh blind, you know, blind, but it's just more about you know, when I I want to know which one to buy again and not buy again. Right, right. This one was terrible, and then it's like you know, I have no idea which one that was. Oh, absolutely. So other than that, shoot, you could blindfold me every time I smoke weed. As long as I know that I'm gonna if I could, I like that one. I want to get that one again. I could do that. Give it here, give it here.

SPEAKER_01 25:11

Let me smoke it.

SPEAKER_02 25:12

Right. It's nice. Yeah, it's a it's a pleasant smoke to the end. Flavor stayed consistent. It actually got a little more woody, yeah. That it did in the end than piney. Yeah. Like the piney receded and it got like a little more woody. The earthy was always kind of just a background thing.

SPEAKER_01 25:31

Yeah. But let's just start off like coming from AUV.

SPEAKER_02 25:44

Oh, that's a little too loud. Okay. Sorry there, boat. And that's the boat. Boat's rocking hard. You know, when the boat rocks, when the minnow rocks, that means our time to smoke has ended. And yeah, any final thoughts before we uh jump into the hour?

SPEAKER_01 26:06

Well, nice low-key vibe. Uh, definitely a high, definitely a high. And the smoke had a lot of character, very nice smoke. Would like to see how it flows into the hour. Yep.

SPEAKER_02 26:17

Expansive, fun, and really just looking forward to seeing where it goes. If it goes anywhere, or you know, even if it stays here, let's see what happens, right? Yeah, we're ready. We're ready. Okay, see you guys in an hour. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_00 26:35

One hour later.

SPEAKER_03 26:47

Welcome back. It's one hour later.

SPEAKER_01 26:50

How did it go, Skip? Well, one hour later, I I I'm still feeling a little bit of the high. Definitely one hour later. Uh, the kickback factor, which is very present. Um, I still feel it. The strong, very strong afterburn. And it's not a bad thing because even though it's the afterburn, it still feels like the high one hour later.

SPEAKER_02 27:13

Yeah, I gotta say, it's still going pretty strong for me, too, one hour later. Um, it's uh, you know, like there's a taper, but um the post is it's pretty, pretty decent post.

SPEAKER_01 27:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 27:24

Uh it's you know, it's it hasn't been much of a change since the peak.

SPEAKER_00 27:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 27:29

Now, you know, not to say that the peak had me smacked, but it's nice when the post could keep going one hour later, right? Right. So I think uh it's time for the smack a meter. Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_00 27:41

Definitely feel like this. This is all right. This is actually all right. Definitely feel like this. This is alright. This is actually all right.

SPEAKER_01 27:49

And we're back with the smack a meter. How does it go, pro?

SPEAKER_02 27:53

All right, well, let's do the rundown. So, you know, it's large-size nugs, mixed greens, all burn pistols, dark and sweet notes, indeterminate kind of, you know, piney, maybe a touch of cat piss. Yeah, definitely woody. So that's what we got when we opened the package, right? Um, you know, these were pretty nice looking buds. They were very supple. Turps were in there, and uh the smoke itself was pretty nice. It was mild, you know. There was a couple of coughs here and there, but nothing too strong. Uh, the the the flavors that came out for me mostly was pine and woody. And uh pine mostly in the beginning, woody towards the end, but still very mild, mild pine, mild wood. Yeah, uh, so it's a good smoker for uh casual smokers or those that don't like too heavy, you know, kind of things going on, even though we believe that platinum reserve is really meant to uh to be like an artisanal, you know, back to basic tasting marijuana kind of brand. So we feel like they want you to taste the marijuana flavors and not something candy-like, excuse me. However, it's not very strong, so it would be good for someone that's casual. Uh, it feels Ndika-ish, which is interesting because sativa or sativa dominant strain, but it really feels Ndika-ish in a lot of ways. Uh, the good parts that don't feel Indika-ish is that you don't feel like low energy or anything like that. I mean, if we're talking about the effects, I never really got focused.

SPEAKER_03 29:25

Right.

SPEAKER_02 29:26

Um, I don't know if I got energetic. I will say this, I got chatty at one point. And that might, I guess, go into energetic. Uh creative, no. Euphoric, no. So really energetic. Uh, yeah, I could probably say that one. I know Skip said it earlier, and I was like, I don't feel it, but yeah, maybe that's that's it there. Um, you know, there was a relaxed factor as usual, and then there was like a it was a more like an expansiveness, you know? Uh it was very chatty, like I said before, chill kind of vibe, you know, felt cool. Uh, we were here just shooting it and just going back and forth and stuff, and it was very interesting. The hour went by very quickly. Um, however, this high, if I can describe it, it had more expansion than acceleration. Okay. You know, it was um it's good for like those deep, you know, thoughts, you know, deep chats, you know, those things where you want to really get into it. Maybe that's where the focused factor comes in, that once you get into it, you're focused into what you're doing. Um, but I didn't really notice it like that. That I was like, oh man, I'm ultra focused. So I didn't I didn't feel that per se. I'm just speculating at this point, right? Um, so with all those things, I will say, you know, price point is okay, not not the worst thing in the world, even though when you start getting into 50 bucks, maybe not. And you know, pretty enjoyable. I think it's a great uh interpretation of Jack Herrera, and for that I'm gonna give it a 7.5.

Okay, all right. That's fair, very fair. Well, uh like-minded. This was nice. Jack Herrera, in its uh regular state with either brand, is is always something to look out for. It's uh typically a little strong, uh, at least in the effects, the body effects and stuff. This version is a very different. The taste is not as strong as it usually might be. Actually, it doesn't lean either way in the taste and uh in the feeling also, because it's also quite uh undeterminate. But it was uh interesting smoke and a nice experience that I will definitely do again. And uh the complexity here of the flavors is is something to get used to. It's not so much it is called, you know, they have labels, pine, woody, what have you, but it has its own thing going. And I will definitely do it again. I'm gonna give it a 7.3. Okay.
