Holy Sativa Batman! So I know there’s quite a few of us that reach for a coffee or an energy drink to start our morning. Give…give this one a try instead. (Insert nascar engine noises.) this one will wake your ass up and then some. Literally dry herb vaped about a half gram of this AMAZING strain and I was flying thru the clouds and dancing to the rhythm of the earth. Literally can feel the bass drums in your chest. If you are near a dispensary that carries UpNorth Humboldt, keep an eye out for this one. This is a winner!! Very strong (I’m high typing this by the way) euphoric head buzz that radiates down the backs of your legs and makes your feet feel electric. Literally a pre workout type feeling but amplified greatly. I typically stick to my sedating indicas but wow this sativa found a special place in my toolbox! Flavor profile on this one’s a winner too. Spicy citrusy clean feeling in the mouth. Kinda like the orange flavored toothpaste. What’s unique about this one is the flower is SUPER loud like you can smell a cracked jar a few feet away in seconds of opening the jar but the vapor has very little weed smell to it. Very good discrete daytime use strain. The flower is a badass fluffy covered in a nice frosty glaze sprinkled with the most radical red ever!! Definitely lives up to the hype. UpNorth Humboldts box says 39% THC so it’s strong. But rise up to the challenge! Do not fear. This one’s gonna blow your mind!

Great stuff, will definitely get this again, Love it. Nice uplifting yet still able to stay focused and it is long lasting. I like anything that makes you euphoric, but don't make you tired. Instead is makes you feel more of a clear focused euphoric feeling and uplifted and not tired. Great for day time use and if you're a night owl like me, than it's great for night time use as well. I love the long lasting effect of this one too.

Fresh grapefruit with white pepper, bathed in green tea. This is a very uniquely flavorful strain. The uplifting head high is equally unique; made even this introvert friendly and giggly.

This bud is described perfectly on this site. It’s one of my favorites! The aromas of it burning take me back to when I was 17, in 1980. The scents that fill the air are earthy old school smells and the taste is the same! Very uplifting. It’s a strain I like to puff on throughout the day!
