Every once in a while a strain comes around that has something special. Bombs Over Baghdad is one of those strains. It’s very soft-spoken when it comes to looks, smell and taste, but MAN does it have a lot to say. The high is complex and relieves multiple symptoms. This is one of the few Indicas I have come across that doesn’t leave me useless during the day and is narcotic enough to knock me out at night. You can tell a great deal of care went into growing and curing. This is a strain I could smoke all the time and not get sick of.
The Breakdown
Reviewed By: Sodium from WA (Read More Of My Reviews)Added On: 12/19/2010
Bought At: Mt. Baker Collective
Camera Used: Canon Powershot SX100 IS
Name: Bombs Over Baghdad
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Suggested Donation: $10.00
Looks:
Very plush looking buds that have decent amount of denseness and spring back nicely when you squeeze one between your fingers. There is a wicked sugary sheen over and inside making the green look washed out. Orange hairs here and there present a nice contrast to the silvery-green. Perfect cure and my grinder had no trouble at all breaking it up. Smell:
The smell was very mild. There was a bit of green smell with a spiciness to it. Not a hashy spiciness, more like black or white pepper.
Taste:
The taste was mild but very complex. Very earthy and smooth patchouli with a hint of coconut on exhale. Not so much the sweetness of the meat, but the savory earthiness of the husk. There was also a bit of cool cucumber in the aftertaste. The smoke wasn't thick but it expanded a bit.
Buzz Type/Length:
You guys remember Man-E-Faces from He-man? That's what this bud is. Smoking during the day provides a mellow, euphoric float. It doesn't cloud up my brain and provides a nice amount of pain relief. Grocery shopping was somewhat enjoyable, although I wanted to eat everything in the store. Smoking this at night was a horse of a different color (granted I smoked more during the night sesh). I was melting into my couch while my brain was on some sort of introspective spiritual pilgrimage. The wall behind my TV became more interesting than the show I was watching, and my "screen door" (a remnant from my trippin days) became prominent on the wall. The buzz lasted quite a long time and I woke up the next morning with a bit of a buzz still.
