Definitely jealous. What are the chances some of that Kosher Kush will be available to the rest of SR? Pleeeeeaaaseee?

Thank you ECC for running the raffle, and to the 420 gods for picking my name as the grand prize winner! I placed an order a few weeks ago for 14g of ECC's Barney's Farm LSD. That order arrived in two days to the East Coast for my fastest delivery received on SR. It also had some of the most incredible bag appeal I've seen in quite some time - smelled great, looked beautifully trimmed, and was properly cured. The shipping methods were also excellent, so all that was left was to try it. Not surprisingly, LSD has earned some accolades here and elsewhere for good reason. It's a very powerful 'weekend' strain. For me, this wouldn't be something to use during the day if I intended to get any sort of work done, but man was it a fun experience for when I've had some free time.
I saw ECC's raffle for the Reserva Privada Kosher Kush, so I purchased a couple tickets. As I read more about this strain, I made a mental note to buy this from ECC once he was offering it on the menu. But each time I came back to look, it was still there only via the raffle. So feeling a little lucky, I bought a couple more chances here and there, especially as the value of bitcoins was on the rise. I guess that paid off, because ECC notified me that I won the grand prize - 42 grams of Kosher Kush (and something still en-route from Rose's Garden).
Weed delivered straight to my mailbox by the friendly mailman is great. When it arrives in just a couple days, it's fantastic. When it's a heavy package with a really dank strain, carefully grown and harvested, it's awesome. And when it was FREE? Man... free weed makes my day. Fortunately we'll be enjoying the 'holiday' tomorrow with some friends and family, and everyone can go home with a little party favor.
My 1.5 oz of Kosher Kush arrived almost as quickly as the previous shipment from ECC, and was on-weight and securely shipped as before. There are lots of large nugs, all professionally manicured, and just moving it into a couple jars resulted in my fingers being super sticky despite barely touching it. I kept sniffing my fingers all day as I couldn't get rid of the smell, and it was completely delicious. Finally in the evening, I ground up about a half a gram and threw it in the vaporizer. Within 15-20 minutes, I began wondering if it was really a good idea to share this ridiculously great weed. That thought passed, because the truth is this is just too good NOT to share with loved ones. Most of the indicas I've had recently are kind of run-of-the-mill couchlock-inducing as you'd expect. I found this Kosher Kush to be quite a bit more cerebral than I expected, and just generally calming and relaxing. I vaped a second whip and got pretty damn high and completely forgot about the worries of the day, the crazy shit going on in the world, and watched some TV and played with the dog.
I had the impression last night that this Kosher Kush wasn't that hard hitting, and from my perspective, that's a good thing. Some strains can send me straight to paranoia-ville or couchlock-city, and when neither happened, I kept vaping. I definitely got pretty fucking high, but I woke up this morning feeling refreshed and well rested. This strikes me as something I could enjoy nightly without a problem. Admittedly, it's not easy for me to come to a complete conclusion after a single evening's session, but Kosher Kush is a clear winner, and I look forward to fleshing out some of my thoughts as I enjoy this with friends tomorrow.
With any luck, maybe the package from Rose will arrive today or tomorrow and we'll have some edibles to enjoy as well. Regardless, I have to say thank you to both EastCoastCollective and Rose's Garden for running this raffle and for following through so professionally. ECC is a class act and was already on my short list of favorite vendors, but this whole experience just clinched it.
Have a happy and safe 4-20 everyone.

You sure you didnt smoke Adderall.....
I guess a grand prize merits that long of a response :)

:) Yes, when someone basically gifts you an ounce and a half of some killer weed, you kind of find your inner muse and let it run wild. Given how many raffles I've seen on SR that were nothing but scams, I thought it's the least I can do to spend a few minutes reviewing the product.

Congrats to the winners!

Just wanted to pop back in again and say that Rose's edibles arrived on Monday and they look, taste and work just as advertised. This was my first time receiving an order of edibles, and I love Rose's shipping method which was a little unexpected, but simply genius in terms of avoiding any LE issues.
And as for the Kosher Kush, the results of our 4-20 party indicate that four out of five smokers will find themselves glued to the couch by midnight. Some needed to be assisted to their beds, while others were okay to stagger on their own. Very few of us were conscious to continue partying, but I was in that group and really enjoyed this strain and some others we sampled.
