TL:DR Black Cherry Maduro is marvelous, and Anthem doesn't disappoint!

Black Cherry Maduro is an Indica infused pre-roll from Anthem Bold that is enhanced with THCA diamonds for increased potency and additionally terpenes for a more pronounced flavor. They come in glass and wood filtered tips, Black Cherry having the latter option, which has sugar ingrained in the wood to further elevate the taste, specifically of the fruit it's representing like the black cherries. The presentation of the pre-roll was top notch, it wasn't tight and didn't clog, which is a plus from anyone, and consistently burned at an even rate.

I was met with an overwhelming smell of cherries covered in dark chocolate and cherry cola, like Cherry Coke but richer and more refined. The Anthem lit up like a comet when sparked up, soaring evenly down the joint as we took toke after toke. Much like the smell, the taste is reminiscent of soda, cherries, chocolate, and sugary sweetness (perfect when paired with pop!). The high I got from it wasn't an overwhelmingly strong Indica, but a more lax and leisure smoke that kept my night a smooth, mellow slow-burn that capped off with mindful meditation and somber sleeping.

For an Indica, I'd definitely say this is on the more manageable side and should be a sweet smoke that's enjoyable and compliments your evening instead of a complete day-wrecker that locks you in for the night. As a fan of Anthems, I can say I'd buy it again, but it wouldn't be my first choice for Indica. I'd still prefer Berry Gelato/King Louie XIII for overwhelming strength but Black Cherry does a standout job at not being the heaviest hitter in the catalog, but is certainly one of the tastier options available from the fruit lineup.

Although Black Cherry Maduro has a dessert smell/taste the wood tip does a great job complimenting the entire profile and easily earns a 7.7 out of ten.

What is this? I've never seen one until now but it looks pretty interesting and the mushrooms inside it aren't psychedelic! It's a different kind of edible, but is it any good?

Novarine is a truly "sunny" sativa, perfect for starting the day or keeping it going! Strongly smelling of skunky and citrusy notes with earthy tones, it suppresses appetite and is the definition of SPEED-WEED! It provides energy, mental alertness, and greatly uplifts your state of mind. Have you lit it up?

Shown above are REVOLUTION - CRESCO - SUPERFLUX - ROVE. I usually enjoy ROVE if I'm going the live resin route, but recently I picked up a few other notable choices that looked fire. Any others I should try? Or out of the listed, which is best?

TL:DR Grape Goodness, Floral Fun, and a definite buy again! 

Giggin' Grapes is an indica-dominant hybrid that sets the tone for what fun and comfort is like. Upon opening the container I was met with a light gassy grape scent accompanied by the faint aroma undertone reminiscent of tea, like a sweet or mint tea. The flower itself was a mixture of opaque greens and vibrant oranges, alongside deeper hues of purple entwined in the recesses of the bud, with trichomes dotting the entire surface like stars in the night sky. The buds were dense and structurally solid, firm and compact, but broke down nicely when grinded. 

I packed my joint and chose to pair this strain with a Grape POP Cone to further elevate the grape flavor and aroma, which to my surprise certainly skyrocketed the experience. The first half of my joint was the Giggin' Grapes on its own, which the best way I could describe it was a more neutral to semi-light grape taste accompanied by floral undertones that I found to be extremely pleasant. When paired with the POP Cone, it's an explosive grape inhale with a sweet floral exhale. The high was a gradual, uplifting sense of calm, paired with a happy mindset and a creative attitude. My body felt much less tense and I gradually spent my evening relaxing and hanging out with friends, which was a treat. On top of that, I'd say the way the strain made my body and mind feel was great.

I love the terpene profile in Giggin' Grapes and think it does a great job at providing an equal harmonious body and head high that rises in waves and has a nice slow burn, perfect for ending the night or equally great for enjoying your day. I can definitely see myself buying this again. I'm smoking this while writing at night and I can say it definitely improved my mood! It enabled me to elevate my evening and put a smile on my face before sending me to bed. 

If you've tried it, how did you like it? Don't forget to kick back, relax, and roll up!

Yet another banger from Anthems, 8.4 out of ten. It's a badass hybrid that truly helps you live in the moment. After lighting up, it made me focus on the conversations at hand and helped me navigate my day wonderfully, reducing my anxiety completely! I sat feeling the warmth of the sun around those I love, and the music irradiated off my body with a rhythmic pulse. It made my day like a movie, and gave me mega-munchies.

HE'S BRINGING THE BOLD... RIDE TO THE HIGHEST PEAK⛰️PARTNER!

Easily one of my new favorites, 8.5-9 out of ten. It's a super strong sedative high that hits like a MAC truck! If you can manage to fight through those strong, soothing pings of comfort and bliss (almost overpowering, difficult to talk and keep my eyes open) then it's another delight entirely. It made me feel like I was stranded on a beach while in bed, soaking up the sheets and watching TV. Surprisingly good aphrodisiac too if you don't knock out to sleep!

Grape Sugar Cookies is a splendid hybrid that evokes blissfulness and raises your spirits considerably. Solid sugary grape taste, it lingers nicely and leaves you high functioning, uplifted, and tranquil. Ever try it?

Blueberry Sugar is an Indica-dominant hybrid that makes you feel super relaxed and chill. Tasty, tangy, and a terrific choice for winding down or peace of mind and pain management. Have you tried it?

Just stocked up on some new strains and had to bust into that Jeeter XL as soon as I got home!

Opened the door and found someone left me all these gifts, what a nice guy! They were knocking forever, but it abruptly stopped before I could thank them for blessing me! I had to share this act of kindness.

There's so many brands out there and I'm not sure what else to try/buy. I dabble with everything but POP Cones are one of my favorites. It's nice to choose when I want to add a flavor layer to the smoking session, but not all POP Cones are created equal. The SUPER SWEET/BANANA/GRAPE are easily the best I've had from them. If you have any recommendations I'd love to try 'em!

Giggin' Grapes is an Indica-heavy hybrid that makes you giggly and hungry. Overall it made me cheery and elevated my mood! If you've tried it, what's your take on 'em?

My buddies and I added fifteen train cars together from what we could find. Has anyone else made anything bigger or is there even a cap on how many you can combine?
