Strain Review: Pineapple Cake by Surfr Select
Slowly, but surely, I’m working my way through the strains @surfr runs. I started out with the Grape Pie, Apple MAC, and Ex Wife. You’ve gotten my thoughts on those. You’re gonna get yet another Point Break review soon, and there are others I’m forgetting. Today, though. Today we’re gonna have a chat about Pineapple Cake.
Lineage/Genetics: Golden Pineapple x Trophy Wife
Original Breeder: Surfr Seeds
Grower: Surfr Select
It’s the other one that came out with those three I mentioned at once. I had to let one pass me by for financial reasons, like a very toned down version of the risks posed by Scarlet Begonias. Pineapple Cake was described by a few people I know as light and generally sativa-ish, which tends to be less interesting for me on purely subjective grounds. My favorite strains tend to skew pretty indica, so it’s hard for me to drop forty bucks on something people call a sativa.
While the descriptions were accurate, I’m still glad I got my hands on some of their latest run. The nugs were gorgeous, absolutely coated in sticky resin, and had this satisfying, styrofoamy cure to them I really enjoyed. Not too dense, not too fluffy, with no real harshness on the inhale.
The smell was enjoyable, if enigmatic. Sweet with some funk as one would expect from anything pineapple-y. The smell kinda reminded me of a pineapple milkshake, but it was hard to pick out super pronounced individual notes.
The sativas-of-my-youth vibe the smell gave off continues into the high. Heady, not overpowering in the least. It’s not energizing to me, but it seems good for a destination sesh where you still gotta walk back to the car so you can’t fully light your face off.
A lot of people really loved this stuff. I thought it was great, but there’s also other stuff at it’s price range I’d rather get. If you want to try some, I always recommend you look for this farm’s products at @thc.pdx. The lovely budtenders at @oregrownindustries have really been showing me the love recently, so I also feel a need to shout them out. Tip heavy if you stop in at either establishment. They’re fantastic folks deserving of a raise.
