Initial Thoughts
Blue Raz, originally bred by Grandiflora and cultivated to perfection by Alt Sol, is now gracing the shelves at Takoma Wellness Center in Washington, DC. This hybrid strain is as fun as its name suggests, conjuring visions of sugary confections and fruity delights. If you’ve ever enjoyed candy that turned your entire mouth blue, Blue Raz may evoke similar nostalgia—though thankfully, there’s no need to check the mirror after indulging in this strain. With its tart berry notes and tropical vibes, Blue Raz feels like the cannabis version of a summer treat.
Appearance
The buds are a visual feast, with dense, conical formations coated in a generous layer of glistening trichomes. The shades of deep forest green are accented by streaks of dark purple, almost like swirling berries in a smoothie. Vibrant orange pistils twist through the nugs, adding a touch of warmth to the cool, frosty hues. These flowers look as though they’ve been hand-painted by a master artist with a penchant for fruity inspiration.
Status
Fresh.
Aroma
Cracking open the jar releases a sugary, fruity burst that’s as captivating as it is comforting. Blueberry and raspberry notes immediately take center stage, blending seamlessly into a smoothie-like sweetness that hints at tropical undertones. It’s like stepping into a candy store where the air is filled with the irresistible aroma of blue razz gummies. There’s also a subtle earthiness and a dash of creaminess to round out the bouquet.
Flavor
The flavor profile delivers exactly what the aroma teases. The initial inhale brings tart berry flavors, reminiscent of a raspberry-blueberry sorbet. As the experience deepens, tropical fruit notes emerge, followed by a smooth, creamy sweetness that lingers on the exhale. Unlike candy that might stain your tongue, Blue Raz leaves behind only a pleasant aftertaste, making it a much more refined indulgence.
Lineage
Blue Raz is the result of crossing Yadada with (E85 x Doggy Bagg)—a combination that’s as intriguing as it is effective. Grandiflora’s genetic mastery shines through in this carefully curated strain.
Effects
Blue Raz offers a balanced high that caters to both mental upliftment and physical relaxation. The experience begins with a euphoric wave that brightens your mood and inspires creativity. As the cerebral effects take hold, a gentle body high starts to spread, melting away tension without weighing you down. It’s the kind of strain that lets you feel productive yet completely at ease—perfect for afternoons or evenings when you want to unwind without zoning out completely.
Conclusion
Blue Raz by Alt Sol is a deliciously dynamic strain that offers the best of both worlds: a joyful, uplifting head high and a soothing, relaxed body feel. Its berry-forward flavor and candy-like aroma make it a sensory delight, while its balanced effects provide versatility for a variety of activities. Whether you’re reminiscing about blue candy from your childhood or simply looking for a delightful new addition to your rotation, Blue Raz delivers an experience that’s as colorful as its name.
