Maui (CAM)

From:  Colorado Alternative Medicine

Grade:  B+

Type:  Hybrid – Sativa dominant  (lineage is Hawaiian Sativa crossed with a Mendocino Hybrid)

Price: $50/8th Mix-n-Match

Appearance:  Very dry, nicely trimmed.  Fair amount of trichs but nothing “snowy” – did not possess a lot of Fall colors as a later harvest of Maui tends to do.

Aroma:  A little earthy, maybe a hint of a spice (like Halloween or Xmas spice).

Taste:  Not much on this sample, more hashy or ashy.

Buzz Type:  Strong, but not “knock your socks off” strong.  This Maui was nice for a beautiful, sunny day with a walk to the park a very pleasant experience.  I had increased auditory and visual stimulation, lots of patience for things going on around me, but I was still focused and alert.  The step down took place at just past an hour, and 30 minutes following that I was starting to notice mild irritations in my surroundings.

Buzz Length:  Medium.  1.5 hours

Medicinal Use:  (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  My neck felt great for a day in the park, plenty of motivation.  Easy medication if enjoying (or suffering) the company of non-medicating folks.

Overall:  This specimen is solid but not the best representation of Maui that I’ve seen.  With a choice of Maui’s at different places and a choice of some better strains at CAM, I’m not sure I’d buy much more than a gram of this one to get my Maui “fix”.  It was a very relaxing and mellow buzz and thouroughly enjoyable, but we’re critics at the end of the day and this wasn’t the best Maui on the block.
