Summary
This week we sparked up Black Maple from Dragonfly, and right out of the jar… yeah, the name tracks. Dark, sweet, maple syrup vibes. Not the fake pancake syrup from childhood.

Best reported tendencies from this one? Happy Relaxed Focused Mild pain relief Would we smoke it again? Yeah. Would we reach for it over…
