This strain features handsome buds that are moderately dark green with some burnt orange coloring throughout. Overall the buds are dense but springy, and although not very sticky, your fingers will reek for a while after handling this weed. On the outside Criminal doesn’t look heavily crystallized, but when you break open a bud, the interiors are like geodes in some cases and are rich with dense sections of trichromes. One of the best attributes of Criminal is its nostalgic bouquet. It’s reminds me of an old New England kitchen in the fall; sweet and spice and everything nice. Of course, that’s the smell out in the open, but this impression vanishes when you actually smoke the herb. Criminal produces sharp, acrid smoke that irritated the very back of my throat. Expect to cough if you’re taking big bong rips of this strain. Overall the smoke produced is fresh-tasting but mild and devoid of any particular taste or aftertaste.
