Today we are reviewing not one, but TWO live rosin products from a collaboration between Eastside Alchemy & Local Grove:

• Candy Fumez
• Black Maple

Eastside Alchemy & Local Grove

Eastside Alchemy has taken the Michigan rosin scene by storm! There is little known about them besides hailing from Lansing and producing 🔥 rosin. They are known for having killer collabos like the ones we are reiewing today.

Local Grove are known for Runtz! It feels like 90% of their genetics are Runtz crosses. For good reason, as this strain for them has won the High Times Cannabis Cup.

This stuff is 🤯!

I know everyone has a preference, but this stuff is the perfect color & consistency for me.

The smell is to Eastside Alchemy’s typical standard, which is amazing. You just want to keep opening the puck and smelling it!

I love fruity terps and this is it with gas to accompany it.

This is 🔥:

I loved everything about this one as well.

Honestly, the only thing it had going against it was being compared to the Candy Fumez.

This was an impressive showing and showed a different note from Local Grove.

I personally prefer the Candy Fumez to this, but it doesn’t change that this is:

Gas ⛽

Outro

🔥🔥🔥

These both had a similar smell possibly because they share Sherbanger genetics, which makes sense.

However, each strain diverged on taste exploring both fruity sweet terps versus cookie/baked goods sweet terps.

It is rare when the product you receive actually looks better than the promo pictures provided by the brand!

This was a great collaboration between two Michigan brands.

It may be one of the last as it appears that Local Grove has their own extraction facility that is still going through city and state inspections.

Either way, I’m glad this happened and that I got to take part.

What do you guys think?
