There’s gold in them hills in Washington, with the new West Coast Gold lineup of premium dabs and carts that bring gold like the fall leaves around town.
Fall is all about change, and it’s evident in the vibrant shift as leaves go from green to gold. Just like the process of extracting Cannabis from green buds to golden dabs, change brings new highs and earlier nights, which is when we turn heavily to Cannabis as the last hits of summer leave our lungs.
The West Coast Gold lineup of carts, disposables and full-spectrum extracts just won runner-up for Best Concentrate at the Joint Rivers Summer Roll Up, so it’s safe to say that this brand is up and coming in the world of 502 dabs. We started with the Kodak Reserve oil, which had a beautiful golden color and a sappy, wet consistency that’s full of terps. First flavors are citrus dominant, with a creamy, gassy haze that swirls in the mind, promising uplifting effects to come. Low-temp dabs release a bright floral and fresh honey citrus that fills the mind with a happy buzz, delivering a hit of sunshine that’s so needed as the days get shorter.
Feeling perky and refreshed, we turned to the thick-body cartridge with a ceramic tip filled with beautiful golden oil. First rips of this GMO send a rush of thick, gluey vapor that smacks into the frontal lobes, slowing time and thoughts as a heavy high melts over the mind and body. Tokes taste rich and funky, with classic GMO notes of garlic, rubber and gas teasing the senses as the powerful strain goes to work. This stoney and floaty cut is ready for rainy afternoon jam sessions as the traffic builds, but cares hit the expressway. As we all head for red lights and rainy nights, the fresh lineup from West Coast Gold is the top-shelf distraction we all need to make it through another seasonal transition.
