Strain: Cookies and Cream (Girl Scout Cookies x Starfighter)
Type: Hybrid
Dispensary: Archive – Portland, Oregon
Girl Scout Cookies is easily one of my favorite strains. The beautiful tight nug structure, the deep purple and green hues, the sweet n’ skunky smell and flavor; the heavy-hitting couch-lock stone… it’s really the complete package when grown to its full potential.
Enter Cookies and Cream, a cross between my beloved GSC and Starfighter (Alien Tahoe OG x Lemon Alien Dawg). This wonderful strain takes all the things I love about Girl Scout Cookies to the next level.

A few weeks ago my girlfriend and I took a day-trip to Santa Cruz for a run along the coast (marathon training woooo!) and a little dispensary tour. Our first stop was CannaCruz Collective, a shop that completely blew me away with their super friendly staff, wide selection of top-shelf flowers, and amaaaazzzing in-house concentrates.
I specifically picked CannaCruz for the DJ Short Blueberry that I’d seen on their menu – I’ll post a video strain review soon – but ended up being distracted from other flowers by their selection of super terpy concentrates. Nearly all of their in-house extracts had the flower counterparts on the shelf, which made it really fun to go from smelling concentrates to the flower that produced it.
After some tough deliberation I left with three live resin flavors: Chiquita Banana, Slymer and Blueberry. Check out reviews of each live resin below.
Strain: Obama Kush
Genetics: Mendocino Purps x Bubba Kush
Type: Hybrid
Grower: Resin Ranchers – Portland, Oregon
Dispensary: Farma – Portland, Oregon
I can’t remember exactly when I first tasted Obama Kush. What I do know is that once I exhaled that first hit, it became one of my favorite flavors of all-time. When I lived in Portland I always had a jar of Obama Kush stocked and within reach.
And while Obama Kush is plentiful in Portland, it’s actually quite hard to find in San Francisco (I’ve come across only one decent batch). So on a trip to Portland last weekend I made it a point to find a proper piece of this delicious strain. Lucky for me, Resin Ranchers had just dropped a batch of top-shelf Obama Kush at Farma, and I didn’t waste any time stopping by.

Strain: Tahoe OG
Type: Hybrid
Dispensary: KindPeoples, Santa Cruz
I recently visited Santa Cruz for the first time. As you can probably guess, I took some time to visit a few dispensaries to see what flavors the city has to offer, and I wasn’t disappointed.

Strain: Zkittlez
Form: Hash Rosin
Producer: Southern Humboldt Terp Farms
Dispensary: 1944 Ocean, San Francisco
Zkittlez (Grape Ape x Grapefruit x an unknown strain) is famous for its overwhelming fruity, candy-like smell and flavor. From 3rd Gen Fam + Terp Hogz in Northern California, it’s quickly become a sought-after strain since winning the 2015 Northern Cali High Times Cannabis Cup and the 2016 Emerald Cup. When I saw this hash rosin from Southern Humboldt Terp Farms I just had to give it a try.
