Today, we’re diving into another exceptional offering from Khalifa Kush, cultivated in Illinois through their partnership with Flora Arbor. Our focus today is on Violet Sky, a potent indica-dominant hybrid that promises a profound sense of relaxation.
Violet Sky is the result of a masterful cross between Khalifa Mints and GastroPop. This strain was first introduced in 2023 after two years of dedicated pheno-hunting by the team, culminating in these visually stunning, frosty nugs. Each bud boasts captivating hues of purple, beautifully contrasted by vibrant orange pistils that tightly hug the frosty trichomes.

Upon cracking open the jar, a powerful and inviting aroma immediately fills the air. The dominant note is a strong, musky smell with a sweet lavender, beautifully complemented by a subtle undertone of sweet citrus/grape. That initial whiff of lavender instantly signaled a heavy-hitting body high, building anticipation to experience its full effects.

After grinding the flower with my Flower Mill and rolling it up with some Bamboo OCBs, I settled in for a session while enjoying some YouTube content. As I smoked, the relaxation began to spread, first easing tension in my shoulders and then throughout my entire body. This physical tranquility was soon accompanied by a delightful feeling of euphoria and a fit of giggles, enhancing my viewing experience.
What truly impressed me about Violet Sky was its balanced effect. Unlike some heavy indicas that can lead to a numb, untalkative state, this strain allowed me to remain social and engaged. It delivered a wonderfully relaxing body high that I believe is perfectly suited for unwinding after a demanding day, without completely incapacitating the mind.

Overall Impression:
Violet Sky is yet another banger for the Khalifa Kush brand in Illinois. The collaboration with Flora Arbor, one of the region’s standout new craft growers, has clearly paid off, as Flora Arbor has consistently delivered exceptional quality across their entire portfolio. If you haven’t explored their offerings yet, I highly recommend visiting Stash dispensaries for all your craft cannabis needs.
Whether you prefer pre-rolls or the full eighth, I wholeheartedly recommend adding Violet Sky to your collection. You will undoubtedly be impressed by the premium quality of this flower. Stay tuned to Couch Lock’d for more reviews of the latest Khalifa Kush strains!
