Is it skunky? Taste like skunk, and leave the smell in the air after smoking it?

Skunk or Skunk#1?
It looks, smells and tastes like the Skunk#1 Gypsy gave out 2001-2002. I'm smoking a skunky skunk right now that is Afghanis x Mexican ( Oaxacan pretty sure ).
I'm not familiar with it. Was that a sweet one? Those are nice too.
Yes. The story of those seeds is little known. They were old when they were given out for free by Gypsy. There are old threads here about it. One in particular is very good. It was richly sweet and gassy and more. I crossed it to a astringent funky NL/ Afghan and it made the most beautiful honeysuckle,etc...sweet cross. Better than both parents. The skunk was not the sweetest thing in the patch but just incredible. The pure was the best. I'd try to source it but it just wouldn't be the same.
That genetic was the source. That was master root file stuff.A building block of today's genetics. No skunky skunk will ever replace it in my mind. The I- IV- V.
I smoked the Mass. Super Skunk with the original cut taker in 1992. It was effing great.

if you have extra let me in, please
Like you say I have to smell it in person to know if I like it or not, I love the Skunk#1 and Super Skunk but I know the roadkill element is not present in those lines so it's possible I've never had any roadkill pheno yet. I've had some plants with old Skunk genetics(Jillybean) who had some smells who were disgusting to me like hot garbage in the summer some really nasty odors , I really didn't enjoy those buds and sold all of them, thankfully those smells were rare in this line but when present they were very powerful and not to my taste at all.
Mass Super Skunk is Super Skunk that came from seeds from Amsterdam prior to 1992 when I met both growers, one of whom was SkVa's mentor, the other the grower who showed me we can compete with Cali outdoors. He took the original cut in VA. when it was just SS. Funny, I remember how good it was but so was all his stuff and the only SS I remember well is a Lexington, VA. one that was of a blander later variety.
He grew his outdoor in my county. I grew one of their clones, the Nigerian Kandahar. In 1992 it was all about top quality organic, and that is still the banner I carry.
I always thought the Sensi Seed sk#1 line description was perfect for the Sk#1 I had that was pure. That may have changed too, "...a rich sweet pungency..."

When the buds cured did they keep the offensive terps?
After 1992 my path diverged from that RVA crew who was fucked with the law and under investigation when I arrived back from prison, for a street fight I should have known better than to be there for. I was noob back then but had a better feel for growing than my friends. I went the way of Jerry for some years in the mid- 90's and had a dark period of Heroin addiction. I started growing indoors again oddly enough in Bozeman, Montana where SkVa is now.
I reached out to him to try and be friends and give him the Skunk. Hell,in the podcast they say they want this stuff. But the reality is people are worried I might hurt them or their brand. I don't think that is warranted but we come from a large group of Deadheads that had various sticks in the fire.
I play Grateful Dead music like I'm riding a bicycle , never trying to imitate and I get no love. I think I saw it from a musicians viewpoint at some point in time...they had their trip, and I had mine. I learned everything from them them really. But they didn't need me and I moved on. I still am friends with some in that group, but many are downright hostile and for no good reason really other than their own secretive lives and doings.

Oh yes completely, the flowers were absolute stinkers even after a few weeks in jars.
SkVa has the guys # who brought back the seeds and took the cut. I'd like to know more about the seeds purchase just for the record. I could have contacted him but being the Bong Loadin' I am I didn't. I think we are all real private people these days.
I sure miss that old skunk, Glad someone has it going.
I wish I could see it in the old spot! That would be the ultimate test. And ultimate potency test as well. I do find myself up and moving when I smoke it.

I hope good things come of the Triploid Sk#1 that Mac just got.
thanks
Do you remember maybe 2011-2013 there used to be a loud loud skunk that would come around southern va towards December? I've been smelling actual skunks lately, and I think to me (i'm not old enough to have smoked the 80's weed) the weed we got back then was more similar to skunk spray, but not right on the nose.
