85 points out of 100

Price: $50/eighth

The cultivators behind True North Family Farms hail from California, so their strain offerings reflect a taste for creamy Cookies and gas rather than the sours and hazes of the East Coast. My budtender recommended their Cotton Candy for something sedating and sweet. I’d call this a Cookies cousin—the buds have the same chunk and squish, and they waft that signature minty/cream/gas blend that lingers in the nose; it’s more subtle on the palate, but has that same pungent mouthfeel. Easily clocking in at over 20% THC, I agree that this is an unwinder; ideal as a nightcap or movie night companion where you want to savor your eats and shows.
