Classy , flashy , and sweet . Let Shishkaberry from Redecan sweep you away to a swanky cannabis café in Paris or Montreal .

If Shishkaberry were a dessert , it would be something fruity and flashy , like gourmet apple and blackberry ice cream maybe , served with a glob of caramel sauce on top . A few hits of this savory cannabis strain will quickly lead to a euphoric head buzz before it finally drips into a tranquilizing body high after about 30 minutes . Like a sugar rush , ’ kish ’ lifts you up before it calms you down . An award-winning fusion of DJ Short Blueberry and an unknown Afghani strain , Shishkaberry will pair equally well with your first coffee of the day — if you ’ re into slow and easy mornings — as it does your evening tea . My weed came from Redecan ’ s Niagara greenhouses and was delivered in a pack of 10 pretty , petite , and perfectly straight-rolled joints featuring snazzy black tips . I actually felt sophisticated and classy holding a Shiskaberry joint in my hand . These are not feelings I can say I ’ ve ever experienced before , puffing on a doob . My mind wanders and I imagine myself wearing a beret and smoking this exotically named weed at some swanky cannabis cafe in ( hopefully ) the not-so-distant future . For now , I ’ m sprawled out on my bed as usual . With 18 percent to a whopping 26 percent THC content , this indica-dominant strain is a fantastic choice for anyone who struggles with anxiety , stress , depression , sleepless nights , or general aches and pains caused by inflammation . Some consumers say Shishkaberry is similar to Green Crack and Trainwreck . Super chill . Shishkaberry is an easy strain to cultivate in any growing environment and can yield a fair amount of flower in less than nine weeks . The plant ’ s tight dense buds exhibit multiple shades of green and purple with furry brown hairs and a thick , sticky coating of white trichomes . The leaves are minty green and shaped like spades . In addition to offering a warm , fuzzy , happy high , Shishkaberry packs a spectrum of terpenes that combine to produce a seductively sweet earthy fragrance , velvety smooth smoke , and a crisp berry aftertaste . I permitted myself to indulge for five days until the pack was empty .
