From what I've read, Shhman is an old hybrid whose ancestry is a cross between Purple and old Skunk. Purple is not usually one of my favorite mothers, while I call Skunk my best "giggle weed," often so silly I'm almost stupid (back to the second grade). This hybrid though is different than either. It has some of the elevating effects I'm used to with Skunk, but without the "stupid" aspect--instead I feel creative, heightened, and I would agree with reviewers who've called it "almost psychedelic." Visually, colors around you brighten up with this strain, which is something I've only experienced otherwise with Sour Diesel. While I would say the Sativa-typical affects of this strain are definitely dominant, Shaman also does come with a slight but perfectly sweet body buzz, and can be nice before sleep as well (I then have very powerful dreams). The head high is very strong, without needing to smoke very much, and it's quite long-lasting. First time I smoked it, my friend and I agreed it was like a "truth syrum," we had a very different and more intimate conversation than we would have otherwise... we talked for hours. I love this strain.
Sativa pure and clean (!) high effect , give a lot of energy without unnecessary 'side effects', good for daily (morning) medcial use.
Good for hard working, like car fixing etc.
As i mentioned Shaman budds give you lot of energy without significant infuence of side effects.
This strain is one of my absolute favorites. It was my very first bud, this is a very nostalgic thing to smoke for me, I usually look around and think to past times smoking, look through some of my old art. But within an hour and a half of smoking it, I will definitely be making something, sculpting, painting or drawing(once I even made a ridiculous DIY bong because it REALLY brought me back to my early smoking). I get very aware to things around me, but don't get caught up in them. It helps a lot with just forgetting problems and focusing on good things in your life, or even just sitting around watching a movie with some friends. It is the most peaceful high that I have ever experienced. I would recommend this to beginners. I was lucky to have this be my first bud, I can't say it's my favorite, but it is worth praise.
This strain is a great daytime smoke. The nugs are dense with purple leaves. The smell is very citrus/flowery and taste great in a vape. It gives a very happy uplifting high that doesn't give you any couch-lock.
I bought this from a very well established dispensary in San Francisco, CA. Everything is tested for %'s, clean and safe. However I did not like this strain that much personally. It was far too clear headed, to the point that after the short euphoric burst of 20-30 minutes I didn't even feel high anymore. This would be a great sativa for someone with low tolerance that desires the more visual effects of marijuana vs the disorienting/mental or heavy body stones.

Picked this up in Steamboat, CO. Absolutely loved this one. Felt euphoric and motivated. Great day smoking weed and great for joints!! Probably my new favorite strain.
Incredibly uplifting. Great for outdoor use while hangin' with some friends. Colors are endlessly satisfying
Some pleasing purple bud from People's Choice Wellness Center.
Smell and taste is of a citric berry swirl that I find only in purple buds.
The high is a pleaser with a definite "stoned" feeling that lets you calmly connect with whatever you please - yourself, your surroundings, your loved ones, whatever.
