The following diary entry is shared to provide insight into my personal use of cannabis to alleviate a series of medical and health issues, inclusive of insomnia and loss of appetite.

A gassy sweet aroma escaped Manzano’s packing and pulled me in for my evening bud of choice. That gassy sweet aroma developed with deep dark grape flavors, sour apple, and a creamy salt water taffy essence. The flavor does well to match the aroma, with clear and delicious sweet grape candy tastes, citrus and apple sourness and then a banana ice cream finish. The gassiness of the aroma is not a pronounced in the flavor—instead it takes more of a pure dessert direction.

The high is heady with a unique great clarity and purpose in mind, super thoughtful, introspective and functional, similar to the mental clarity of Lion’s Mane but more intense. The bud also has a slight relaxing feel in the body—not enough to completely negate pain an discomfort, but enough to get comfortable. 

I highly recommend Manzano to all consumers who love grape buds and heady functional highs. The sweet creamy grape (and apple) flavor and gassy aroma are super enjoyable. The high is really interesting and functional. I wouldn’t use it to relax—but I would run to it for use during complicated problem solving and complex work. It does wonders with the mind. I am not sure how a novice consumer would deal with a high like this—moderation is the key—but this is yet another example of the diversity of cannabis effects.
