Initial Thoughts
I played a lot of Mega Man the video game on Nintendo when I was a kid, so when I got this batch of Mega Man from DC i-71 marijuana dispensary, Hotbox Uptown, I was more than a little curious. Like it’s namesake, this specimen is small, but super powerful and not lacking in energy. With strongly uplifting, but not angsty, vibes I guess you could say this one made me feel…mega.
Appearance
Bright green spear-shaped buds with patches of bright purple and tons of frosty trichomes – many still starry.
Status
Fresh.
Aroma
A super delicious mix of creamy, fruity, piney, and gassy with hints of shortbread.
Flavor
Mouthwatering with notes of tart fruit, cream, pine, and fuel that seems quite tropical to me.
Lineage
The Mega Man strain’s lineage is unknown presently – and likely kept secret, but the Toker’s Guide team’s consensus is that it seems balanced to slightly indica leaning in terms of effects.
Effects
Quite balanced with an energetic headspace and uplifting body high that eventually settles into a euphoric and tingly state. Perfect for early to mid-afternoon use as it can keep you delightfully high and enhance your mood for the rest of the day without bringing you down. Also somewhat motivating and focus enabling.
Conclusion
A phenomenally smooth and delicous toke with a powerful high that is both uplifting and euphoric. Rip this one down in the bong to enjoy the immensity of the potent head rush. A well-honoring throwback to the video game character, don’t miss out on this batch of Mega Man. To grab some today just head to the always friendly HotBox Uptown and don’t forget to mention you heard about them on Toker’s Guide!
