Tasting of Dosidos with Rauch DZA aka The Kush God
The Harlem rapper gets high on our SOTY and shares his top 5 strains of all time.
To celebrate today’s announcement of the Leafly strain of 2021, we invited NYC Cannasseur Smoke DZA to try our top pick Dosidos and catch up on his town’s rich weed history.
The Kush god remembers a time when the only common strains on the corners of New York were Acapulco Gold and medium-quality “Arizona”. But after meeting Purple Haze enthusiast Shiest Bubz in the early 2000s, DZA gained access to the best “Purp”, “OG” and “Sour Diesel” the city had to offer.
It wasn’t long before The Kush God was born, and he hasn’t stopped blowing blunts or breaking microphones since then.
“I sit here and smoke these Dosidos, high like a motherfucker,” DZA admitted between the Leafly strain of the year draws in November.
When it hit the high spirits, we asked The Kush God to share his essential strains and teach us about New York City’s cannabis culture and its fast-growing legal industry.
Smoke the 5 best DZA cannabis strains around the world
1. AND Kush
“You know, this question is kind of hard to answer because I know weed so well. [There’s] really only three different varieties. And all these other kinds fall into the house where that shit is. “
2. Zkittlez
“I like Zkittlez. Greetings to Greenfield. This is my friend. Family, actually. He grew this variety. Very rich, right? You can’t smoke a lot of it. You have to cut it somehow because it’s so strong. “
3/4. Sour Diesel and Purple Haze
“I’m pissed off [Diesel] and powder [Purple Haze, aka Piff] in the same breath, for they were the leaders. You together. It’s peanut butter and jelly. “
5. Dosidos
“I fuck with Dosidos.”
Remembering Essential NYC Tribes
“I didn’t smoke weed like that in the late 90s. I played basketball and watched wrestling.
“But you know niggas had the Acapulco Golds and all those stupid names they had for Arizona. Which were just different degrees from Arizona.
“But when I met Shiest Bubz around ’02, ’03, I had the privilege of being close to the best Purple Haze New York City had to offer.
“Sour Diesel when it first came out. Not the NY Diesel the services were selling in the coffins and all.
“I’m talking about Sauer. The shit that smells like embalming fluid. As soon as you open the bag, it smells like you’ve already lit the shit.
So mad and whistle [were] the most dominant strains in New York City in the early 2000s. “
What is the smoking club?
“The Smoker’s Club is a lifestyle brand. It’s culture, it’s history, it all started with a tour we started at SXSW in 2009. The smoking club is me, Shiest Bubz and Johnny Shipes.
“The tour turned into a festival and we currently have one of the best marijuana brands in the world. As for merch, festivals and marijuana.
“And my own variety, which is currently on the market. ‘Undisputed’, available at Cookies, Sherbinskis, Marathon OG, all that shit. “
Why The Kush God Uses Leafly
“I think Leafly is a really cool concept. I like the fact that it’s a believable app that will point you in the right direction for what you want.
“Nothing is better than a credible source that tells you where something is in a city you may not know anyone. To find a good herb. Or find a good place to get it.
“So yell out, I take my hat off to Leafly because she is believable and has her pulse where the good tree is.
“I’ve always loved her. I’m glad you guys got in touch to speak to The Kush God because it makes perfect sense. It’s like going to a party with a bunch of people who you have a bunch of shit in common with. Nobody talks?
“So it’s great to do something personally, smoke DZA with Leafly. And I hope this is just the beginning of a lot more. “
