I’m a heavy smoker and the taste smell and high were so good that I had to leave my first review about it. I’m an indica smoker mostly and I was so highly impressed with this strain

If you haven't tried the strand. I would highly recommend it. As a two decade long cannabis ingestor, I'd recommend this in small doses for first time users. You'll want this with your Indica and hybrids as this is a SERIOUS Sativa! You'll get all the benefits from all strains, plus the Entourage effect because it's full flower non manipulated straight for your utilization and ingestion cannabis

I like it well enough, but definitely prefer vaping it over smoking flower. Not to mention, these buds smell like pan-seared chicken breast with a bit of Lawry's seasoning! It's uncannily mystifying, but thankfully doesn't carry over into the flavor!

REVIEW FROM A GRANDMA WITH BACK & NECK ISSUES: My medical issues come from multiple surgeries including back & neck and symptoms of Lupus that can leave me spacey & depressed. Now! About Durban Cookies: I knew I liked Durban Poison so I figured this would be about the same. Boy, was I wrong! The pain reduction in my neck and back is wonderful. Not gone, but muted enough to concentrate on something else. That’s generally my goal for pain relief. This went far beyond that! I am chairing an event this summer and had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do with it as far as a theme, decor, ANY OF IT! I’d been staring at my clipboard and a blank page for weeks. and beginning to panic. I tried Durban Cookies for the first time, the other day when I was helping my daughter with 4 kids under 8. I was the funnest Grandma ever! Laying on the floor coloring, and helping with homework, building a living room fort...Not once did I have to say “Grandmas back hurts, I have to rest”. Not sure who had more fun, me or them!. I tried it again this morning. An hour later I had a theme, had scoured Pinterest for decor ideas and had a full page of notes on my clipboard. It’s a SUPER HAPPY HIGH!! The ideas just flow and you just feel ALIVE but with no anxiety or edge to it. A little bit in the first 5 minutes then it just fades. That’s unusual to find in a Sativa, for me anyway. The taste is pleasant, doesn’t burn my throat and the buds are loose and easy to break apart without a grinder. It burns really nicely in a small pipe. Not too fast, not too slow. 3 or 4 hits is good for me. I don’t know flavor profiles or turpenes like a lot of people, I just know how it makes me feel. Hopefully this will help someone else.

It makes me feel very productive, allows me to get things done around the house without wanting to lay around. I also like to write on it, it makes me feel very creative! One of my favorite strains so far!

Lots of people are not realizing that this is actually a cut/pheno of Cookies that just leans towards the Durban side that is in Cookies. Its not a cross at all. It is "GSC" not "GSC x Durban Poison"... I thought it was a cross until I got back home and looked it up on this site and others. That being said, I am loving PharmaCann's Live Sugar version of it and its excellent overall. This is purchased on the Illinois Med Market at a Chicago Dispensary. Smell: SWEET (unique flavor found in Cookies cuts), Spice, Pine, Lemon from the Durban Parentage ... Basically leans towards Durban Poison rather then the Kush/indica pheno of GSC. Taste: Very similar to the smell, super sweet in the inhale. The sweetness dominates similar to how Jack will dominates at first, following that the pine and lemon spice kicks in. Once again, this is a specific cut of Cookies. Effect: A very nice sativa whoop to the head with a good body buzz. Very focused, not overwhelming and nice muscle relaxation. Looks: Nice light consistency, typical live sugar. Stays nice and compact, compared to some of the "loose" live sugar. Note: This stuff causes the munchies big time. That is always a plus for me but it is something to be aware of.
