Sour Orange Diesel Kush – Nanticoke, NY, Fall 2023

80 out of 100 points

Price: $55/eighth

We got actual notes of Sour, Orange, Diesel, and Kush from this sun-grown, high-light strain in 2023's emerging New York legal market. The green flower buds were of medium density and varied in size – and we felt they were a bit overdried. The Sour Orange Diesel Kush tasted good and fragrant when ground, but we wanted the taste to be more full-bodied and spicy.

However, the hybrid effects worked and gave us momentum as we explored Washington Square Park and other parts of Manhattan. I don't think a New York newbie would be thrilled with this pick from Union Square travel agency. But even the connoisseur won't be impressed.
