What's good. Whoever the user is that rated Piff one star, and said "it's not a particular strain"... has no clue what they're talkin about. Although there are people, like them, that have no clue and do say "I got that piff"..but it's not piff. But again, if you weren't in NYC or the surrounding states in the late 90s early 2000s, you probably never smoked Piff or even knew what it was. Alot of rappers talked and rapped about Piff and or Haze.
Piff is an actual strain originally out of NYC, I believe the Bronx. It was actually called Golden Haze, but then it was Piff, Haze, Pep, or Pepper Haze, Uptown Haze, also Blue. It was also in Florida, they called it Silver Haze, and Purple Haze. It was around heavily in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The real good piff used to come in skinny glass bottles like when Hydro first came out. It was around up until around 2010 and then it kind of disappeared. I heard the strain was locked away due to all of the crossbreeding of strains going on. Also heard there was a huge raid and all the seeds were destroyed or confiscated. Either way it wasn't around for awhile, although I would attend concerts in NYC and it was definitely always in the air.
The buds are usually darker, flat buds, yet fluffy and light. An ounce of piff almost looks like two ounces sometimes. Piff has a very distinct smell and flavor. It has a peppery smell and almost like a musty basement. Only piff smells like this, you cannot mistake it. I know it sounds funny , but If it don't smell and taste like basement, it's not piff.
I'm sure there are strains out there that may have a similar smell, but nothing compares to real Piff. Gorilla Glue #1 is the only strain I have had that has a similar taste and smell, but GG1 is not really popular and I have only found it in one place in the U.S. at a D.C. Dispensary. But Finally found a plug that has actual Piff in NJ. Erb-Hub.
Piff is a Sativa, but may now be a hybrid but Sativa dominant. Definitely gets you nice and toasty, but not sleepy. Creativity pops, it gets you energized, super happy, and giggly with enough of it. Also it does help with sleep, so it may in fact be a hybrid. I can say this, some the best highs in my life came from piff, and I do believe the taste, for some reason, is a part of it. And not alot is needed. I remember the piff in the battles were only .7g and it would get a whole group of people toasted. Piff is definitely by far my favorite strain, I'm so glad I found a plug for it.
Piff is simply the best. I can attest to the 0.7g 20's. Put that bag in a blunt and get 3 or 4 of us feeling immaculate. Or was..I haven't smoked it since early 2000's. I am on a lifelong mission to get my hands on it again.I live next door to NYC in NJ. If anyone can help me...Please I have scoured the sites but it seemed to almost be like an urban legend. Although I can still find strawberry cough andduck foot, I can't find Piff.
A East Coast classic for real was surprised that it was easily available once the recreational kicked off unforgettable smell and taste very potent had blue smoke when you smoked it Haze , piff, catpiss, Dope, that Mattatahn brown
My boy grows the original S1 Piff which he still has seeds of and i can tell you from smoking it in the early 2000’s this is one of my favorite strains! I can smoke it all day and Everytime i smoke it i get brought back to my first time’s smoking this precious plant! Top 5 for sure
I only read the first/top review before deciding to plunge into the reviews. Also, my first review on Leafly. That out the way, I can attest to the top review, that you haven't a clue of what you speak if you say this strain is not original to itself. Having lived in NY in the 90's and early 2000's, I was given the golden opportunity to indulge on real deal PIFF. My favorite being Manhattan Brown that came from the city and a couple of my friends swore it actually came from The Diplomats aka Dipset, BITCH. Regardless, this strain is hands down, without contest, the best Sativa, the best cannabis I have ever smoked in my life. Living in Cali now, I have been exposed to a lot of good herb and produced myself some really great herb (the best being Strawberry Shortcake from Dark Horse Genetics). Manhattan Brown holds a special place in my mind and heart. Flavor... second to none, with literally no other strain out there coming close to the profile. I can't explain it it's so unique but may be because at the time I was only in my early 20's, and didn't start puffin till I was 19 so, maybe my pallet wasn't as developed as it is now. Anyway, if you're ever so luckily to get your hands on some real deal Manhattan, remember you're getting an opportunity to partake in a sesh with a legendary, paramount, celebrated, piece of cannabis history that the Bronx made possible and thrived thanks mostly because of connoisseur's that owned the rap game and were willing to risk their freedom for a flower they held so dear to their souls. Killa Cam, Jim Jones, Juelz Santa, Hell Rell, n 40 Cal to name a few, thank you for spreadin the word n representin a strain that will forever be fave. "This is grade-A piff you got garbage to puff, And when it come to my rocks get it polished and buffed" - Hell Rell
I remember this strain from years ago man haven't had piff in a decade or so this and chocolate bud and arri was the only good treehouse when I was a teen in Southside Jamaica, Queens N.Y aww man those where the dayzzzz...
NYC/Uptown to Strong Island!!
If you were lucky enough to bless your lungs!! This is still top 10 strain , Afghan Kush and Piff!! Couldn’t get “Branson” , but PIFF was on Deck!! Bring this strain back to the masses
This is the best weed I ever had but I haven't seen real piff (New York City Haze) since at least the early 2000's. Growing up in CT in the 90's this was the top dawg strain that every body wanted. There wasn't anything like some fire haze from the city. Ounces used to go for $600 and a $20 was only .7 at best but there would be 5 of us on a blunt and we all would be toasted. I haven't seen anything like this in 20 years and I doubt it will come back around since weed was heavily regulated in the 90s. If you find any hit me up 😜
