Sour Patch Kiss tastes like strawberries and medicinal lip balm, and leaves a rich feeling on the lips like whale grease. The effects highlight the sativa dominance. SPK goes right for the head—energetic and a little loopy—distorting the perception of time like an alien abduction. An all around solid sativa: cerebral, energetic, and potent to boot.
So I just toked a 3-hit bowl of this strain, and I'm flyin' solo, so this is all just one man's opinion: take it or leave it. My first time trying this strain while on a 5-month journey to find a better, more practical and focusing strain for writing: yes, I'm the next Hemingway... (kidding-of course). My go-to delivery service just got it in stock. About one-hour and a half in the saddle, I'll cut to the chase: 4.5 Stars and generally lives up to its reputation.
A little more detail:
Onset was about a 2-3 minute delay, then a slightly uncontrolled rush of energy and focus which persisted long enough to be typing this, followed 6-minutes later by a heavy feeling and a moderate brain buzz. My alert factor is less than I was hoping for, showing the 40% Indica roots. I can see why others have recommended a smaller pack. Was hoping to get some writing done and at least burst out a few new concepts. Stress has fallen about 66% (I'm less worried about the Landlord's 'no-smoking' policy and more interested in what's for lunch). I will say my thoughts are more scattered than I was hoping for, but I am having some new and creative inspirations for my writing.
Would I buy it again?
Probably, and I'll use up the rest of what I have to see what else it teaches me.
What I'd recommend it for: Painting/Artwork, housework/fixing things, some writing, relaxing with an intellectual or thought-provoking movie.
What I wouldn't recommend it for: Any kind of college-work. Doubt you'll have the focus to get anything over 2 pages completed; reading longer or involved books; or larger social scenes. Save "Candyland," for those.
Kept me focused and going on tasks, all while feeling mellow yet energized. A good smoke, whether after work or for a wake-n-bake, it has no tired feeling or headache while coming down, nor is there any cottonmouth effect. Got me where I wanted to be all while being functional and productive.
I literally have never written a review on anything because I can never focus long enough to write one. This strain has changed that. Let's just start with the at first glance, visually a stunningly intact long honey-glistened bud. Taking a deeper look literal crystals and long matted down hairs. I'm certainly not a veteran smoker but even I can spot this gem from a mile away. The aroma is one of familiarity but also uncertainty. When sniffed, a scent of exotic tea and lavender extract along with an earthy overtone. A soft fragrance which precedes its dainty demeanor. Its touch is soft on the body with a slightly stronger grip on the forehead. As if a swiss masseuse caressed your head with extra love. The Sour Patch Kiss is a strain to be cherished as a rarity.

this is a great strain with amazing effects.
This was definitely a social strain for me. I felt very stony but at the same time very conscious. Picked it up for the party and everyone really enjoyed it. I also felt very talkative so its plus so I'm not sitting there super stoned.
My FAVORITE strain!! Amazing sour sweet smell, taste that is sour and citrusy at first, and finishes sweet. Like sour patch kids. It’s fucking phenomenal.
The high is immediate. Clear headed but relaxed and happy. Very smiley. My creative juices are flowing and i am focused. Love this strain for day use when out in the nature!
I like it all the way around great taste and really does resemble the smell of the sour candy it takes its name from. Using currently for a stomic ache and doing the job. Not too much of a head rush tho even out the bong nothing to crazy just a good relaxing stain.
