STRAIN OF THE MONTH
TAHITI LIME
Joe and Gabe, owners of Cascadia and two of the small number of Latin American growers here in Oregon, primarily grow Cannabis destined for their preroll line. This leads them to select cultivars for flavor and effect, instead of focusing on vanity characteristics like bag appeal and THC percentage. When they get a winner like this Tahiti Lime on their hands, the A + buds make it onto a shelf near you, while the slightly smaller nugs are worked into their pre-roll line and sold all over the state.
Rolled in a joint or loaded carefully in a jar, we’re happy with what we’ve been smoking on from Cascadia. Farmfresh flower is packed into their joints and if an exceptional cultivar crosses their trim bench, that herb might end up sold by the gram. This is nearly the exact opposite of how most pre-rolls are produced. Where the majority of these products are typically comprised of the packs that didn’t quite hit the quality standards to end up on the shelf, Cascadia flips the script.
By setting high standards on the material that goes into their namesake pre-roll packs, they ensure the flower is going to be a hit before it ever hits the shelf.
It’s a good thing these buds were selected to be set aside, as it would have been a shame for the finger-length buds to be broken down by anyone but the intended smoker. In the jar, the lime scents are front and center, while a deeper whiff reveals a bit of the bakery funk, less ovenwarmed bread and more toasty malt and developing sourdough.
Twisting up a joint is a bouquet of bright citrus, lime leaf and overripe orange. Each pull showcases the lime daiquiri profile, sugary-sweet lime juice with funky potstill Jamaican rum. Altogether this is a pleasing but complex profile rarely found in citrus-heavy cultivars.
The effect borders between feeling silly-stoned and a comforting euphoria. Instead of sinking into the couch for an extended period of time, expect light sedation and a mood shift toward the positive. With a relaxed but upbeat effect, we’ll be adding this to the stash for the foreseeable future. Like a vacation in a jar, you can catch the sort of blissed out feeling typically reserved for settling into a hammock on the beach or toasting a cocktail from the shore, while the captain readies your next voyage.
