Manchurian cannabis
If ever the U.S. government wanted to use cannabis to mollify its citizens and mine for information, A Therapeutic Alternative’s new Recon strain would do the trick, because this top-shelf bud, like any good indica, really zonks you out cold. But in a good way: The body high is tranquil, and the mental buzz is at once focused and dreamy, never scatterbrained. Plus, the nugs are just lovely: good-sized and dense and dressed with plenty of dazzling tangerine hairs and a fine kief sift. Recon’s an excellent late-night toke for those needing help with insomnia or sleeplessness.
