Afghan Hawaiian not my favorite by any means but it’s an enjoyable, relaxing high that takes a while to develop but lingers for a long time. Very sweet taste and practically no dank odor. A very misconcieving bud for sure. It’s great for having on you at school or work where people are prone to smell it through the bag on you. PS- the bud looks crazy and different from typical loud. A very small, leafy and flowery bud.
