Appearance
The appearance on the rosin was nice, opening up to a light beige color with a wet terpy look. The rosin was visually clean, with no contaminants visible to the naked eye or even under my phone’s macro lens. When I dipped my tool into it, the consistency was also really nice and had a stiff wet, terpy texture that was nice for making into hash holes.
The jar design was simple, with a shallow black, flat container with a black plastic lid rather than an authentic black miron jar with the “m” stamped on the bottom, which I personally would have preferred since they tend to preserve hash better over time. The jar had two stickers, one on the top and one on the bottom. The top sticker had “Sensei” written boldly in orange across the center with Team 7 (Kakashi) from Naruto in the background. The bottom sticker also used another No Face background image and included details such as the concentrate form “Cold Cure” at the top, the strain name “Zowishi” in the center, the Anudai Farms logo toward the bottom, along with the micron range listed underneath.
Aroma
The aroma is nice and loud and very interesting. When I first crack the jar I instantly get a unique funky spoiled like smell with a sweetness tucked in there too with a tad bit of cream making it quite complex and interesting. It's almost like a unique weird sharp cheese funk with a cream sweetness to it.
Taste
The taste was nice and flavorful and translated pretty well from the aroma, but was a bit different. On the inhale, I got a sweet taste with hints of zkittlez, but it leaned more toward a general sweetness rather than that distinct zkittlez flavor. I didn't get much of the funky, spoiled cheese notes that stood out heavily on the aroma, they were pretty much absent on the palate, which was surprising.
Burn/Smoothness
The burn was alright with a dark golden transparent color not a light golden but not a very dark one which would indicate there's quite a bit of contaminants. It also dabbed decently smooth but I wouldn't say the smoothest, it did have some discomfort which came out more at hotter temps but nothing crazy. It was still very clean but not like some of the jars I've had from him in the past which dabbed extremely clean.
Effects
The high is really nice and rather potent with a nice head and body high. I found myself enjoying this one when I was chilling in the morning with my coffee when I was looking for a nice dab that would pack a punch without taking me out.
Overall
This was a solid jar from Sensei Solventless and Anudai Farms. The main reason I got this jar is because it just sounded like a unique profile and one i haven't tried yet so i figured why not go with it, I also went with it because i had an Pop Rock Lee from Sensei and Anudai Farms last year and they straight up killed it so i figured why not try a collab from them again.
Sensei Solventless is a Cuban hash maker based out of California who has collaborated with a number of well known brands, including Anudai Farms, Cuban Grower, I Love Kush, Ganjah Guru, Bonsai Tree Co, and others. His journey began in 2015 while working as a budtender at a dispensary where he pressed flower rosin at their shop and at home. Then he learned to grow indoor flower in an auto shop for CES who's now Bear Labs. He was there when they were competing and winning some championships and was the one growing their genetics. He then started Sensei Solventless in late 2016 and later connected with a lab in California that was looking for a solventless extractor. He took the opportunity and never looked back.
I would say this jar checked almost all the boxes for the most part but lacked in the burn/smoothness category. The rosin had a noticeable harshness to it when dabbing that came out more at higher temps but still nothing too crazy.
This was a decent jar from Sensei Solventless and Anudai Farms but it didn't quite impress me as much as the previous collab I had from them which was really impressive and one of my jar of the years. This jar as I said checked all the boxes except that burn/smoothness which it lacked in but nothing too crazy. I also didn't really find the jar to be too memorable and for those reasons, I probably wouldn't grab this jar again. It was a solid jar of hash but it just wasn't a jar that really stood out to me enough for me to come back for another, but it was still cool getting to experience these Zowishi genetics as they are new to me. Shoutout to Sensei Solventless and Anudai Farms!
