King’s Cake Strain Review

Today we take a look at @flowerbomb.dc Kings Cake, a strain that is easy to fall in love with given its combination of beauty and potency. At first glance. Kings Cake boasts that classic dense, boulder-like structure with tightly packed buds. However, a closer inspection reveals the fallacy in appearance alone. Kings Cake’s buds have a surprising amount of give, aren’t as heavy as they appear, and the resulting grind is light, fluffy with an ideal texture. It’s exterior is beautifully peppered with contrasting dominant jungle greens and recessive iris blue-purples, almost as if the GDP is emerging from within and breaking the surface of the nug. A patchwork display of bright pistils, and a ‘greasy’ looking donut glaze like layer of large trichomes overlay the exterior, completing the overall image of a decadent strain. Despite similar naming conventions, Kings Cake should not be mistake for your typical “Cake” strains. Why? While King’s Cake has a similar richness and malty feel, the smoke is much less of a dessert strain, leaning towards a skunky-sweet, rubbery diesel hash akin to some of my favorite OGs. More of a classic “throwback” feel for that reason. You can both smell and taste a distinct overripe, tangy earthy grape flavor, but that takes more of a backseat and complimentary role in the end. Quite simply, I loved the effects King’s Cake had to offer, and kept coming back to this one at the end of workdays and at night when looking for stronger effects. King’s Cake delivers a heavy cerebral haze with a strong claw like grip that I found to be both imaginative and invigorating, yet surprisingly focused throughout the duration of the otherwise euphoric high. Limbs begin to feel heavy and warm under the effects of King’s Cake and I found myself glued to the couch at the peak of the high each time, despite waves of energy early in its duration. #Budfinder • • • • #dcbud #dc420 #420 #dcweed #stoner #marijuana #dccannabisculture #strainfinder #thc #dccannabis #puffpuffpass #dopesmoke #dmv420 #topshelf #stoner #whiteashonly #cleanmeds #i71 #granddaddypurple #mysticgem #kingscake
