Maui Waui Medical Marijuana Strain Review

From:  Sweet Leaf Inc.

Grade:  B+

Type:  Mostly Sativa

Price:  $50/8th

Appearance:  (8/10)  This sample was a big chunky teardrop-shaped nug that was filled with a variety of dark tones, including purples, dark greens, and browns.  When broken open, it was lighter and shower off generous trichome coverage.  The harvest was well-timed, but there were some tiny seeds spotted throughout the sample after it was ground.

Aroma:  (8/10)  Pine, citrus, and soil were the dominant notes, with a ‘fresh’ vegetal scent in the background.  Fairly pungent and pleasurable for a Maui, which isn’t really known for its scent.

Taste: (7/10)  Barely sweet, mostly floral, but with a piney/earthy finish — reminiscent of the taste without the citrus and the pungency.  It was a little bit harsh on the throat and expansive as well, but the light gray ash spoke to a solid flush.

Effects:  This Maui had us a little scatter-brained and focused on random unimportant things — very Sativa in nature to start off, cerebral and energetic.  Also contributing to the Sativa feel was a strong sensation behind the eyes, some facial perspiration, and the “phantom hat” feeling.  After the creeping potency cooled off a bit around an hour in, it was a pretty productive-feeling med and allowed for work while feeling relaxed and pain-free.  One reviewer got slammed by it later at night with a higher dosage, so there are also sleep aid properties later in the duration.

Medicinal Traits: (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  Energy and motivation were prevalent after a strong cerebral start.  Body relaxation, mild pain relief, appetite stimulation, and mood elevation completed the package.

Overall:  Sometimes a B+ strain is what the day calls for — this is one of those above-average but totally manageable strains that almost everyone would enjoy.  A smooth blend of Sativa and Indica traits and effects produced an experience perfect for a semi-productive afternoon or evening.  Though the smell/taste aren’t anything amazing, those areas were better than many Mauis.  Check this one out if you like a classic strain that won’t knock you off-kilter in either direction.
