Additional comments:
This Sour Kush reminded me of the L.A. Confidential by the same seed company. They had very similar smells, the hints of nutmeg and coffee and a trademarked "kush" smell that had a heavy presence. These buds were conical and dense. Very frosty meds, breaking apart the buds with my fingers left them covered in resin. The smell had me coming back for more throughout this review.

Smoke test comments:
The smoke on this was absolutely divine, the taste lingered in my mouth forever. I can see where it got its name, Sour and Kush, all the way! The smoke was just a little harsh on the throat and would leave me coughing on larger hits.

Final Comment:
From the begining this strain had my attention with it's gripping stench of true-to-its-name Sour Kush. The way this would sit in your mouth after each hit, it would really come in and stay a while. I could taste it throughout the review, lingering on the back of my tongue and on my teeth. The high on was fast to act and was a perfect evening relaxation weed. I did not feel too energized though in the afternoon when I had my first puff, so much so that I had to drink a cup of coffee to keep me going. This high was heavy in the kidneys and middle of my body, keeping me anchored to my seat/bed/where ever I was when I smoked for some time. I was having a lot of trouble remembering small details and things that just happened. Although my memory was failing me my mind would skip from subject to subject, I found that later on towards the end of the high was much more quality and worked with it's self much better after the body stone began to wear off. Overall this was a great sample that I would smoke again given the choice.

I'm sure this one came from DNA.

In case you do not believe me, there are other Sour kushes out there, google DNA genetics you can find seeds of this available on attitude now.
*edit they are sold out sorry

Thanks for stopping in Aab, Would love to see the comparison of the two, feel free to post your pics in this thread.
 
from my understanding, if these are not from old stock, that is rp sour kush. dna sour kush/headband (bubba kush x sour d) is different froms rp sour kush/headband (sour d x og kush). same company but different locations.

I've smoked a good deal of Bubba and I could say for certain that is where the coffee smell came from. Just smoking the last of this now, still enjoying every puff.

dna is in the states and R Privada out of states.

its the opposite. R Privada is out of Norcal. either way the sample looks to be quality, thanks for the report. I would rather see Bubba X Sour than OG x Sour, as they are so different i bet the expressions would be fun to sort through.
Enjoy the last of it!
