Sour Guava Strain Review
Appearance:
Absolutely stunning. The bud was a single, dense gram, fluffy in shape but tight and sticky to the touch. Bright, vivid green with striking orange hairs, so distinct it looked like a hand-drawn cartoon. Completely covered in trichomes, giving it a glowing, frosted look that hinted at potency before even grinding.
Texture:
Extremely resinous and moist. The kind of bud that makes you hesitate to grind it because it’s so sticky. A light, slow tear was required just to break off herb from the nug. If you don’t grind it coarsely and pack lightly, you’ll have zero airflow. It will clog your joint, guaranteed. This strain is that sticky.
Aroma:
Bright, citrusy, and tangy. There’s a strong sour fruit note right off the bat with subtle undertones of fuel. The gas creeps in behind the citrus in waves, giving it that sharp edge that makes your nose tingle in the best way.
Flavor:
It lives up to its name right away, sour, tangy, and fruity with gassy diesel pops throughout the joint. Even after smoking, the citrus tang lingered on my tongue like I’d just finished eating sour candy.
Burn & Smoke:
I packed way too tight, so the draw was super tight and the burn was uneven, canoeing, a couple relights, and darker ash. I expect much better performance if rolled looser, or a lightly packed bowl.
Effects:
Potent and quick. I felt it kick in within 15 minutes, arms first, then head, then full-body float. Strong body high with a dreamy mental buzz. I felt locked in physically, but mentally expansive, very focused, but also deeply introspective.
I wanted to write, reflect, and be descriptive. Creativity felt natural, effortless.
It didn’t make me want to move, it made me want to dive inward. Easily one of the most psychedelic feeling highs I’ve ever had from flower.
Emotionally:
It brought a peaceful, philosophical headspace. I didn’t spiral, even though I was very high. That’s the sign of a truly balanced high, strong but not disorienting. Although it could possibly be overwhelming to those who don’t enjoy a very cerebral high. I’d describe the mental experience as floaty, introspective, and intellectually elevated.
Overall Rating: 9.4/10
Sour Guava is powerful, flavorful, and introspective as hell. A strain that demands to be respected, and rewarded me with one of the most mind-expanding, emotionally grounding sessions I’ve ever had. This isn’t a party strain. This is a “talk to the universe” strain. A new favorite.
