White Durban Queen Cola / 24.5% THC & 4.5% Terps
I was lucky enough to grab a White Durban Queen Cola from Rise the day after they dropped them. I originally put in for Cereal Milk but they oversold & I couldn’t get anything. Someone must’ve not wanted to grab their White Durban the day after because of the sku issues so they called me up and I got it!
*I was not paid or asked to do photos or a review of this product from Rise. This is a personal project in hopes I work in product photography in the future, thank you! All support is heavily appreciated! If you get a chance please look at my portfolio for cannabis photography & my other portfolio for nature photography!

Smell
When I pulled this monstrous “14g” bud out of the bag, I was hit with a strong classic terpinolene smell. Imagine a citrus based cleaner, very close to that. Terpinolene has a very very distinct smell & taste especially across Rises Durban lineup and it’s something I love to grab.
Appearance
This cola is covered with these beautiful orange pistils and coated in sparkly trichomes throughout the entire plant. It’s ridiculous how pretty this cola is as I haven’t seen anything else in the FL market that looks like it was just picked with minimal processing. The cure looks pretty nice with the buds being slightly sticky with a good burn when I smoked it. I was more excited to take photos of it rather than trying it. The weight was 24 grams with stem & 22 grams without.
Taste & Effects
Without an herb vaporizer, it’s hard to pinpoint specific tastes without it being really present in the flower since I typically smoke joints. That being said, that terpinolene taste pokes through that smoke, especially at almost 5% terps. It burns pretty clean, ashes white for anyone who asks, and barely makes me cough. For effects, this flower especially gives me a strong clear-headed, focused high. Prefect for getting chores done, exercising, anything that requires focus & energy. I’m a Indica person so it isn’t my favorite but it’s a good tool to use if & when I need it. 9.5/10 for Sativa lovers in my book
I took all the buds off of the stem and jarred them to see if curing them for longer would improve anything. Super glad to have been able to take photos of these buds!
