Top quality sativa landrace. The high is very heavy and wonderfully bliss filled. Energy. Fairly psychedelic. Using it to develop myown personal medical strain by crossing it with some other heavy hitters. Crosses very well with other plants, with wide genetic variability in the f1s for further refinement. My first f1s seem to be a bit more heady and less body. The f2s I have going now bred back to the father(purple sunset lilac diesel crossed with vanilla latte female), are exhibiting long stretch and flowering periods beyond the f1s despite being bred twice to a faster flowering strain. So expect odd things if used in a breeding project but with most of the f2s already being very similar with 1 out of five having any significant variations in structure ,growth patterns, flowering times etc. interesting strain to get to know and pull apart. I just smoked some of the f1 cross and my brain is focused and my body super light but I have no desire to move. Euphoria. Strong enough to stop my panic attacks and re center me to continue my day.
I provide commentary on the crosses in case it helps people when they come across them what they might expect as it is probably found in more crosses than in its original forms, or if they decide to use it in their own crosses.
This has that earth smell that just screams "sativa" - like a desert sage, not sweet, like real sage carried on the desert wind. It's almost the primal ur-weed taste - you smell and you're like "yep, that's 100%, unmistakably grass." You either love that flavor profile or you don't; I do, and the aftertaste on the first hit of this stuff is just delicious. The high made me instantly alert in a pleasant way. It feels like it's medicating me in a very similar way to my actual ADHD meds; since it's a pure sativa I figured that might be the case. I wouldn't take both at the same time; might be fine but might be a recipe for anxiety. On its own this is a very clear-headed blissful and if I wasn't already pretty tired from a long day I'd probably fall into worldbuilding for a DnD game for a couple hours and have a ball doing it. After three hits there's a lovely clearing and expansion feeling in my skull and I could see this being very helpful for someone with hypertension headaches. Man this is tasty. Really gives me that old head nostalgia feel. This is a very pure strain on every level.
Tough to review this with 100 percent certainty. I have been smoking on some Purple Malawi. I was advised by the tender, that it was bred Malawi X Purp Haze. I sense all Sativa. It is not a good strain for bedtime. I get a relaxed focus, but very energetic. Even after being awake 24+ hours, I tried some. This was a mistake but, my mind is focused, but racing. That is why I felt the need to review. Great taste, great cerebral. I am technically reviewing my shop's version of Malawi. I would stick to the Purple Haze, on the other end of these hybrid genetics. I felt the need to do one good review. As I am looking to get regular sleep patterns, this Sativa does not work for my brain. Other Sativa strains can help me with sleep. Maybe that's what others are looking for, maybe it is this genetics. This specific Malawi, is a brain stone!
really nice high made my friends talkative but we were all f***ed up!

This is a very good strain. I'm lucky I picked it because I didn't know how rare it is compared to other strrains.
The first thing I noticed is the earthy taste. It's very different, in a good way, than other strrains I've tried.
I naturally took a few pulls and stopped. The effects started to kick in gradually over a minute or two. The high gave me a feeling to do something. It is definitely a better day time strain. It also helps to stay focused and elevates stress and depression.
I would definitely buy again and keep around to smoke earlier in the day. Tastes and feels awesome!
Very easy to grow and a great looking plant.
Really excellent land race with long, dark green leaves in the flower. It's got a great, earthy and pungent flavor, and the energy is just amazing. Let's you down without any afterimage.
head high, feels like smoking cocaine
