Cannabis Nation - Sunriver

6/13/2020
This is my local dispensary, so I drop by often and stalk the menu. I almost always have a good experience with the helpful and enthusiastic staff. I usually just buy cartridges and the selection isn't ALWAYS as good on carts as on other categories, but as a whole they offer a good and diverse selection. If you register an account and show proof of being a local or veteran, you get a 10% discount which I appreciate. One small nitpick I have is I wish there would be more consistent strain information given for cartridges. From time to time there will be a strain name given for a cart which turns up zero strain results in Leafly when searched, or there is a lack of a specific description. Another specific example is they sell a CN branded live resin cartridge they just call "CBN blended" aka "cannabis nation" blend, and it just says that it is a "blend of compatible strains". I just find it odd that it is produced by their company but it doesn't list what strains it is comprised of, and when I hear "compatible strains" I think that could mean either strains that balance each other out or strains with the same effect profiles. I think it is important for a lot of people to know what they're getting into due to sensitivity to certain effects. That is my only real complaint, more attention to descriptions of products like that so that I can do my due diligence for myself...and for the most part it isn't a problem. Overall, I feel blessed to have a great little dispensary so close to me and recommend.

Snoop's Dream

6/13/2020
Consumed in c02 cartridge form. Snoop's Dream is a hybrid of Blue Dream and Master Kush, two all time great strains. I am picky with hybrids. Full sativas tend to get me too wound up and anxious, but full indicas make me too sleepy, lazy and unproductive. This strain strikes a great balance, noticeably relaxing mentally along with moderate muscle relaxation and pain relief, without making me fall asleep or feel couch locked/lazy. Compared to Blue Dream which is also pretty balanced, it leans closer to an indica effect profile with blue dream displaying a little more sativa alertness. The pain relief and physical relaxation aren't as great as you might find in a heavy indica, but this strain offers one of the best compromises between the two sides of the spectrum I've found. Positive mood, some enhancement in enjoyment of music/games/videos, relaxed but clear headed and lucid, moderate pain relief. In cartridge form, the taste and smell of piney and citrusy terpenes are most present imo, with some earthiness as well. didn't notice much berry or diesel, I'm sure the aroma profile would be more vibrant and complex in flower form. A bit of increased food craving, but not profound munchies by any means...and I personally hate getting excessive munchies so that's good. Very few negative side effects. I think its amazing strain lineage speaks for itself.

Friendly and helpful staff, good prices for being the only dispensary in town. Always enjoy my visit.

Dr. Jolly's

1/8/2016
I have only been twice, so I can't act as if I have the full picture of how Dr. Jolly's typically is...but these are my impressions so far. On my first visit, the budtender was amazing. He seemed genuinely interested in helping, passionate, respectful, and did not push me or try to upsell. I was thrilled on that visit. My second visit left a little bit of a sour taste in my mouth. The budtender that time would NOT leave me alone to make up my own mind despite me making numerous (very polite) attempts to let him know I wanted to think about my purchases myself. The entire time was spent with him aggressively pushing one strain or another, sticking the jar in my face. It was as if every time he started "suggesting" a strain, he wanted me to simply cave in and go "yeah, that's what I want". He simply could not let me browse on my own and take my time (wasn't even in there long, and was the ONLY customer at the time). He also had a very patronizing and condescending tone througout, and by the ends was making no effort to conceal his shitty attitude, and flat out said something like "Okay, can you make up your mind", with a tone implying that I was somehow wasting his time. It's kind of hard to make a decision when someone is trying to bait you and push product the ENTIRE time. I will have to go in a few more times, because as of now I will assume that that visit was just a fluke. Like I said, my first visit was very much positive. I give the first budtender 5 stars without question, but the second only deserved 1 star IF that. The quality has been very good so far. Prices are a little on the higher side, but not outrageous by any means for the quality.

Sour Grape

1/7/2016
Purchased in Bend, Oregon from a friend who is a caregiver/grower. I had previously never heard of Sour Grape, but this stuff is absolutely exquisite. The buds are stunningly beautiful, lots of purple throughout and almost completely white from all the trichomes (I have never seen buds quite this crystal-covered). This particular crop came in at a whopping 27% THC. It does indeed smell and taste like sour grapes, mixed with that famous Sour Diesel fuel aroma. The effects lean more towards indica, but are uplifting enough to balance it out and prevent going full couch-lock. Overall, dreamy and extremely relaxing, pain-relieving, calming, and euphoric. This may be one of the most balanced and pleasant strains I've ever had, and this will definitely be a staple in my rotation. HIGHLY recommended.

Blackberry Kush

11/19/2015
Purchased from Dr. Jolly's in Bend, OR. Tested at 22% THC and 2.5% CBD, I've got to say, this has become one of my favorites recently. It smells and tastes delicious (sort of a sour diesel smell with berry and pine in the background). The effects, for me, lean a little more to the dreamy/stony/sleepy side...but there was just enough of an uplifting stimulation to balance it out very well. I am someone who suffers from anxiety, and certain strains have caused some panic attacks in the past, but this stuff OBLITERATES my anxiety with NO paranoia to be found. Really euphoric, relaxing, and uplifting at the same time. Heavy cerebral bliss, amazing for anxiety without knocking me out, and good pain and tension-relieving effects as well (for my mild-moderate pains). This stuff rocks. It is an absolute classic and go-to in my rotation. And I've gotta give props the grower(s), they did a great job on this flower. Love everything about it. If you are sometimes prone to anxiety/paranoia and need to just relax and live in the moment, definitely try Blackberry Kush. Even if you aren't, you'll probably love it anyway.
