So right off the bat your almost paying twice the cost due to currency exchange.so your 12-15 euro gram is now costing about $22-29 usd. And i seen grams that were selling for 17-20 euro as well... and not to be cocky or anything like that, but the cannabis that I brought with me, was far better than anything I saw in the coffeeshops or at the cannbis cup. and to be fair, the cannabis cup is a complete joke. greenhouse won the cup again with supersilverhaze ??? WOW. just goes to show its all a dog and pony show.... every year its the same thing, yet I expect something different...hmmm sort of sounds like the definition of insanity....hehehe

anyways fellas. have a great day and be safe out there in the snow,

Its not Amsterdams fault that the dollar is weak, and the exchange rate sucks. I havent been in 10 years, but it seems weird that the quality would have gone down. The cannabis cup is not a complete joke, its one of the most fun things i have done. A lot of fun being a 21 year old college kid from NC and going to the cannabis cup. I learned a lot about growing organically in soil, with good genetics. I got to sample tons of weed that was way better than anything i was smoking in NC. And i met and took classes from some of the top growers in the world. Just being around all those breeders and growers was worth going to the cup. I would not be the connosuier i am today if i hadnt gone to the cup twice, and i would love to go back. Have you been to dampkring or grey area or katsu. They dont have good weed anymore? That is sad to hear

Greenhouse won with Lemon Haze, not Super Silver Haze.

I am excited to check out your dispensary and see if the medicine lives up to the hype. Better than the Cannabis Cup is a bold statement. I hope its true.
