It’s a cool fall morning in California, and the fragrant steam from my cup of orange spice black tea is mixing with the wisps of smoke from my bong. The style pairing of hashish flower and tea works effectively. The weed, OC Oranges, precisely mimics oranges within the scent and the smoke. It’s an Orange Sherb x Oz Kush F2 paired with The Menthol in a new line of The Menthol crosses from Compound Genetics, and I’m having fun with the stability it’s bringing to the morning.
