About Enemy of the State

Known for its robust growth, broad leaves, and heavy resin production, it is one of the most influential building blocks of Dutch breeding. The buds are extremely dense, dark green, and covered in sticky, sweet resin. The aroma is aggressively pungent, containing spicy musk, damp earth, anise, and a heavy kerosene fuel backend.
