Meet Dragonfly, our intrepid ganja chronnoisseur. She travels the world in search of the best cannabis, evaluating strains ranging from the popular and plentiful to the rare and exotic. With her trusty joints, glass bongs, vaporizers, and bubblers, she takes careful notes of the smell, taste, and nuanced effects of each strain.
Today, Dragonfly takes us on a journey to explore Shiva Skunk, widely believed to be the most powerful of skunks and one of the most potent indica strains in the world. This Dutch mega-hybrid combines Northern Lights #5 and Skunk #1, considered the two most powerful strains in existence at the time of its creation. With its super frosty appearance and bulbous trichomes, Shiva Skunk is a sight to behold.
As Dragonfly takes a whiff of this strain, she is greeted with a pungent and skunky aroma, with fruity and citrus undertones and a sweet, spicy finish. The dry hit fills her mouth with a strong skunk flavor, followed by a lingering orange-citrus scent on her tongue.
But the real test comes with the taste. Dragonfly takes a deep inhale and is met with a complex flavor profile. The fuelly skunk taste is prominent, with a strong hint of sage in the aftertaste. It’s a deeply satisfying experience for any cannabis connoisseur.
As for the high, Dragonfly notes that in small doses, Shiva Skunk provides a mildly energetic and stony head high. But in larger amounts, it can knock you out cold. Somewhere in between these two effects, Shiva Skunk can leave you pondering the mysteries of the universe and your place in it. The steady creep of this strain can catch you off guard, but it quickly turns into a happy and alert state. Dragonfly also notes that Shiva Skunk can inspire creative thinking and problem-solving, making it a great strain for social situations.
Medicinally, Shiva Skunk is said to be effective in treating insomnia and providing potent pain relief. With its dense, crystalline buds and fast finishing time of under 7-8 weeks, it’s no wonder that Shiva Skunk is a commercially viable strain that is easy to find in most medical marijuana markets.
So, have you tried Shiva Skunk? Dragonfly highly recommends it for its delicious taste, potent effects, and medicinal benefits. It’s a must-try for any cannabis enthusiast.
