I was fortunate enough to get some organic outdoor LA Confidential from Humboldt County this fall at harvest time. This strain is truly top of the line, and there's a reason that it's one of the most popular medical strains in California.
The flavor of the buds is unmatched - I agree with the other reviewer who said it tastes like wintergreen upon inhalation. When you exhale, it tastes a bit fruity/lemony, and you get a distinctly skunky taste. The smell of the smoke is fantastic and classic.
I do not recommend this bud for anxiety or sleep, as it has a lot of euphoric, head buzz qualities to it, unlike some other indicas that may be better for such medical applications. After I smoked my first hit of it, I had a grin plastered across my face. I think this strain has good pain relief qualities, but I have smoked other strains before bed to calm down because this bud makes me high, happy, and jubilant. I already made sure to secure the rest of the batch. :)
I know LA con isn't the highest THC strain or the most knockout hybrid of all time but theres just something cozy about her. Shes like that old friend that you know has your back...it just works, and works well. Nice chiggity check yourself euphoric buzz that starts behind the eyes and warms you up from head to toe. Dense little round nugs super light green with tints of purple with that high leaf ratio indicas are known for (good for hash making), but has a nice texture to it and nice trichs. That smell in the air is unmistakable similar to a good kush. Idk shes just bae, ya know? lol
Picked up some prerolls from Essence in Las Vegas. I was looking for a good, relaxing high that wouldn't amplify my natural anxiety. The bud tender recommended LA Confidential without hesitation.
Got it back to my hotel, took one good hit with some buddies, and got comfy in my bed. After about 5 minutes, we all noticed the telltale dry-mouth, but it took another 5-10 minutes before the wave hit. It brought a nice, mild euphoria with some early giggles and talkativeness that gave way into a pleasant sleepiness. It was super easy to drift off into my own headspace, but I could snap back into reality and engage in conversation reasonably well. I wouldn't recommend trying to do anything thought-intensive, though.
As usual for me, I got a tinge of anxiety as I was coming up, but it melted away in seconds and never returned. Once I decided to fall asleep, it happened instantly. Woke up clear-headed the next morning, feeling great.
LA Confidential can be a very nice strain. It makes me very very relaxed and tired and makes me feel very in tune with peoples emotions. It also puts me in a mood to think and helps me think about a lot of different things. Because it is such a heavy indica, it is not any good for daytime use. Although, it helps with insomnia and if you use it RIGHT before you fall asleep, you will have a pleasnt floaty feeling as you drift into a heavy sleep. The next morning, your muscles will be very loose
🤘💪 LA Confidential smells so nostalgic... reminds me of high school... Like fresh cut grass layered with pine... an adventurous summer morning as a novice weed smoker... This is a classic heavy hitter with a bitter smell and taste. Very potent!!! This strain will start you off on the couch, stoned out of your mind and you will make your way to the fridge where you will become completely ravenous. I won't even say what it made me do, but let's just say I was practically fiending for salts and sugars and anything crunchy. Highly recommend this strain to anyone who loves indicas! It has a very subtle psychedelic effect to it. b-Myrcene: 1.711 mg/g, Limonene: 2.815 mg/g, Linalool: 1.375 mg/g.

Overall Summary: I turn to this strain to help put myself into a heavily sedated state. It never seems to fail me when I need to shut my brain down and get a great night sleep. This is an exceptionally effective indica, but be weary of the couch lock.

**LOVE**Purchased this strain in Portland,OR recently from Health Awareness Group. This is an outstanding bud. Nicely cured, dense but still a little sponginess. I hope I'm describing this right because I love how it made me feel, body and mind. It is an uplifting, relaxing high but it didn't make me want to curl up in the next bed I saw. Although you could smoke this near bedtime and you'd have no trouble sleeping. Definitely worth a try IMHO.
We in NY don't get the LA too regularly so when I have the chance, I get it and hold onto it! Greatly uplifting and euphoric without any couchlock at all. Always gives me a bunch of energy and focus. The buzz is like two parts, an almost sativa-ish head high followed by a very easy mellow high that just relaxes you.
