Malawi
11/25/2016
When I find a strain like African Buzz (a variant of Malawi Gold) I get very excited. As it is a 100% Sativa strain the body high is lacking and so I do need to smoke more before I begin to really notice the THC activating but the effects are much preferable to an Indica Dominant strain like Northern Lights. African Buzz/Malawi Gold is the perfect strain for daily cannabis use. I like smoking a lot but I’m also a busy guy so I can’t have couch lock sitting in when i’m trying to get shit done. After smoking a few bowls a I feel energized, uplifted and my creativity begins to flow.
The smell and taste of this strain certainly leaves a lot of be desired. When I was buying the 8th my friend remarked “that smells exactly like the Zoo” and to be honest it sorta does. The smell is dominated by an earthy and slightly flowery fragrance - almost like the straw found on the floor of the elephant habitat. The taste isn’t particularly pleasant either. It’s that stereotypical grassy taste that you might generally associate with lower quality shake. There is some hint of a fruity aftertaste but not in the notable way like a bug of Blueberry Cheesecake.
Overall 4 out of 5 stars. I love pure sativas and i’m very happy to be smoking on this but there are other sativas with a bigger punch and a better taste.
