Strain Integrity

According to allbuds.com, ” Mango Taffy, more commonly known as “MangoTaffie,” is a slightly indica dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing the delicious Mango Kush X Taffie strains.  ….  The Mango Taffy high settles in a few minutes after your final toke, starting with a slow build of euphoric energy. You’ll feel an influx of focus and sociability that lends itself well to conversations with friends and family alike. A touch of creativity accompanies this focused motivation, which can get you moving on any artistic task that you may have at hand. A touch of physical relaxation will keep you anchored throughout this lifted high without causing you to feel sedated in the slightest …. ”

From the OCS website, ” A Good Buds original, Mango Taffie buds are dense and caked with sticky resin and trichomes. It’s the perfect strain for extractions, with juicy mango aromas and potent THC. Grown in small batches in living organic soils on Salt Spring Island, BC, it’s hand trimmed, hang dried, and expertly cured to maintain natural moisture and maximize terpene retention. ”

Note:  The OCS description is absolutely incorrect.  Mango Taffie is super fluffy and not dense.  And, at $51.95 for 3.5 grams, this is not perfect for extraction.

Oh Yeah

Mango Taffie by Good Buds Company Inc. packaged on February 16, 2021, cost $51.94 for 3.5 grams with 21.26% THC and a sweet floral lavender lime scent.  Our test amount was 0.26 grams.

Mango Taffie’s “high” starts during inhalation with a euphoric awakening.  By the end of the inhalation session, the Train has left the Station and we were on our way to a scenic mountain ride.  There is a freshness in the air as sunlight fills us on the inside.  At the 10 minute mark, our creativity powers up with a greater clarity imbue with Joy.  That fresh cup of coffee never tasted better.  This is going to be a GREAT day.

Twenty minutes later, Mango Taffie delivered a classic Sativa wake up “high” in the morning with a “Hello World!” attitude.  In addition to the euphoric creativity boost, Mango Taffie also brought along strong expressions of optimism and joy, which makes this a full meal deal, a very satisfying experience.  This is what we expect when we get “high.”  Oh Yeah.

Activity pairing is best as the starter to the day, or anytime anywhere.  Mango Taffie delivers a refreshing euphoric creative optimistic and joyful “high,” which goes well with everything.  This strain is also a Weapon of Mental Destruction that can be transformed into a powerful productivity tool.
