If there's a fun backstory to the name- I would be interested to know- and expand all of our collective knowledge, hit me up if you've got the lo-down. UPDATE: A piece in french from Vice; A translation will give you a very interesting background, but no concrete story on the name-

Visual Inspection:
Jar- Wont seal.
Buds manicured so tight little calyx holes have appeared on the surface. Lime green with tracings of light red pistils filigree'd within irregular shaped structures- but very, very tight.  Humidity is still enough to give a velcro like resistance, lightly sticky. The one large bud, was round and knobby with the stem so tiny and well hidden- it scarcely resembled a flower at all.

Opening Aroma:
Sour lime zest, green jolly rancher,  snowy pine needles with more than a little skunk.  This is pungent, terpene forward Jean Guy with Limonine, linalool and lesser known bisabolol showing up in great percentages.  It immediately hearkened back to many old school 90's classics and made me nostalgic for simpler hybrids and their predictable aroma's.

The Terpene content on this is listed on the 7 Acres page as 2-4% which is well about average and they managed to preserve that very well in their curing process, thru to unpackaging this week.  It practically popped the lid off the top of the jar with its sharp, hard hitting funk.   Leaves you with sweet-sour resin on your hands after handling it. Day 4 and the last little piece is still sticky and powerful smelling.

Flavor:
This was a wild lime ride- Finger Limes are what comes to mind, less acidic- sharper- more tropical like guava or passionfruit. The pinene is well-represented and the strong and playful flavors intermingle and nestle into the bottom of my palate as well as the back of my sinus-almost tingling.  Delightful vape- ALL DAT LIME.

Experience:
This strain has had a lot of support from medical dispensaries looking to treat symptoms for fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis and more.  Its more than the 17% THC, it is a terpene flavor-town, which I believe leads to a broader entourage effect with more gain, than say a higher percentage strain, with minimal terpenes.  It has to be appealing to all of my senses personally- And it just makes me happy to sit and smell it.
