For anyone exploring the Illinois craft cannabis market, unique offerings always stand out. That’s why I was intrigued by the “Biggies” line from Flora Arbor, which comes in a 7-gram quantity with a compelling promise: one hand-trimmed bud guaranteed to be at least 3.5 grams. I recently picked up their Miami Yayo strain to see how the experience holds up.
Upon opening the jar, I was met with a powerful and distinct aroma, a complex blend of cheesy and gassy notes that signals a potent flower. Living up to the “Biggies” name, the jar contained two large, dense buds that were clearly well-cared-for. The trim was meticulous, and the flower was covered in a visible layer of trichomes, speaking to its quality and careful handling.
Miami Yayo is a sativa-leaning hybrid born from the cross of Medellin and Collins Ave. The strain’s vibrant profile comes from a dominant terp blend of Limonene, Myrcene, and β-Caryophyllene, delivering a zesty citrus nose rounded out by earthy and peppery notes. Flora Arbor highlights that this flower is non-remediated, offering a true-to-plant experience with no post-harvest alteration.
The bud had a nice density with a satisfying squeeze and sticky texture, making it easy to handle. It broke down smoothly into a perfect consistency for rolling. With its uplifting profile, I chose it as the go-to strain for an afternoon bike ride and a laid-back fishing session.
The effects began with a clear-headed, uplifting feeling that was energizing yet smooth. As the experience settled in, a pleasant physical relaxation followed, easing tension without causing any significant drowsiness or lack of focus. It proved to be an excellent companion for the day’s activities, providing a balanced state of calm alertness that was both enjoyable and functional.
Flora Arbor’s Miami Yayo from the Biggies line lives up to the hype, offering not just the novelty iof a guaranteed large bud, but also delivering quality, potency, and a smooth experience. The flower provides a balanced high that’s ideal for staying active and focused throughout the day. If you’re in Illinois and seeking top-shelf craft cannabis, this one’s worth checking out. You can find the Biggies line at Stash dispensaries with their Khalifa Kush and Ravioli lines as well!
