Grower: Rach Rollers

Rating: 4.4

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

Sweet Cider is the first bud that Mrs. Mendel smoked after taking most of 2024 and almost all of 2025 off due to pregnancy and nursing. Needless to say, she missed out on the evolution of quality and is a fan of Rach Rollers grow. The bud comes through with great autumn spiced fruity notes—reminiscent of cloves and slightly sweet apples. The flavor is earthy, mildly sweet and comes through again with cloves and spices in the taste and a building fresh herbalness as the bud burns down. An appropriate bud for a cool evening out on the balcony.

The high is relaxed, heading on the way to being stoned but not quite getting there. A sense approaching euphoria with a peaceful acceptance of being fills the chest and permeates throughout the body. The mind is available—but at the option of the consumer—it does not demand to be used, but instead awaits its place and command.

I recommend this Rach Roller’s Sweet Cider to all consumers. It is seasonally appropriate (from a North American point of view). The spiced tree fruit fit well in the nippy Bangkok “winter” air. The high is far from overwhelming, but nicely relaxing. A good bud for novice consumers and a versatile bud for experienced consumers who want the option of being active or relaxing.
