Middlefork Review - 43.5/50
April 14, 2016
Summary: This is the Haziest Haze of all the Hazes I've ever Hazed! A pleasantly assertive combination of lime, blueberry, and sweet basil leaf aromas bless the nose - with the lime and sweet basil prominent in the mouth. Expect a SOARING, mildly psychedelic sativa elevation to last for four-plus hours.
NOTE: Middlefork genetics are said to be Dutch Treat crossed with DJ Short's blueberry. Somehow, it seems the haze genetics in the Dutch Treat surfaced as VERY dominant in this sample - and I for one want to personally thank the breeders for this amazing flower. Thank you!

Eye: 9.5/10
These loosely-structured, ginormous buds are built from tiny, Japanese eggplant-shaped, medium khaki-green calyxes with light orange overtones, a confetti party of bright amber-orange pistils, and are glistening like disco balls with a range of clear to milky to amber trichomes. These gems were clearly lovingly hand trimmed, probably more than once. This is museum-quality cannabis.
Nose (/2): 9/10
Aromatic Intensity: 9/10
Aromatic Quality (subjective to my palate): 9/10
Notes: Among the most intense and intoxicating aromas I've ever encountered. At first, the typical, familiar aromas of a classic haze fill my nostrils: heavy lime, mild pepper, sweet, mild basil. But then the lime picks up additional intensity and is joined by the sweet, tart aromas of an unmistakeable, juicy blueberry getting squished between my thumb and pointer, purple sticky liquid oozing down my palm (alright, I'm a little high as I write this :) ). The nose ends with a fine, exotic melange of all the notes that preceded. A terpene profile for the ages.
Tongue (/2): 9/10
Flavor Intensity: 8.5/10
Flavor Quality: 9.5/10
Notes: All of the aromas are present in the mouth. Every time I take a rip of this, it tastes like I'm drinking a virgin blueberry-lime Rickey with muddled basil and sugar perfectly incorporated. Fucking out of this world delicious. On a side note - is there a bartender somewhere here in Seattle who will mix me a virgin blueberry-lime Rickey with muddled basil and sugar perfectly incorporated? Mmmmmmmm!
Head: 9.5/10
Notes: A buzzy, high-intensity mind-shift and sense-heightening are accompanied by mildly psychedelic yet (mostly) functional focus.
Body: 6.5/10
Notes: a mild-intensity energy boost is not accompanied by any dulling of my pain. This is a variety for the head.
