This is a beautiful, resin-frosted, exotic, tropical-sativa! It is not as pretty as some of the other strains I
have seen lately, but it is very nice nonetheless. There is a pleasant variation of color, mainly lime-ish
green with hints of white. The color of the pistils almost makes some portions of the bud take on a
purple-ish hue.
Fragrance:
The fragrance and flavor are where this phenotype gets its name "Pineapple Express". The flavor is very
exotic and nearly impossible to describe. It took a close friend and myself nearly 10 minutes with the
herb shelf open to identify all the fragrances! The fragrance can be generalized very easily:
Citrus
Spicy
Sweet Skunk (Not like the American or BC Skunk)
But to define what makes up all of these flavors was incredibly difficult. There is an easy to define, and quite
sweet Pineapple aroma that is backed by a hint of sour, attributed to Grapefruit (which was almost overlooked).
The Spicy notes are comprised of a mix between Cedar and Black Pepper, which is extremely interesting!
When the flavor all comes together it makes a beautiful mix! Definitely one of the most intriguingly unique
flavors I have come across to date!

The flavor is somewhat like the fragrance, but more mild. For the most part it is something like a sweet
skunk with a little spice, and then a pleasant pineapple flavor on the aftertaste. The flavor is somewhat
less spicy and less fruity than the fragrance and more nutty.

The High:
Exotic and Potent could sum this strain up nicely. The high is incredibly different than any other strain I
have come across. Anything this strain is missing can easily be overlook in comparison with the high. There
is a perfect mix of the Hawaiian Sativa and the Skunk, which leads to a somewhat clearheaded but still
knockout powerful high. No joke about the potency either, I have smoked this strain three times and three
times my night has ended short! It is a strange mix, a soaring sativa high with a narcotic knockout power!
I would not recommend this strain to new smokers or medical patients who have a strenuous daily schedule,
you will not get anything done!
