EXHALE:
When it comes to flavor, particularly on the exhale, Piñata brings to mind the ageless adage of too much of a good thing etc etc – think 80’s conglomerate Asia- unparalleled musicians to be sure- together – maybe not the cream one would expect to rise to the top of such a rich melange of talent.
Granted both parents are known to provide a considerable degree of cerebral energy. The two together blend and mingle and balance one another. Like a jet pack for the mind and body that seems to refuel itself upon each cylinder spark of ignition.
What seems to be a normally fleeting glimpse at the perfect high that will soon dismantle and ultimately morph into sedation, here is something different- a way to feel the deep waves of physical euphoria while not melting into the couch.
EFFECTS MIND + BODY:
Piñata’s effects arrive in a delayed or creeping fashion but once engaged they don’t let go easily. As the high ramps up a deeper physical euphoria can be felt and seem to drive the high while cerebral effects are in control of acceleration and the steering of the experience.
MIND:
- energized cerebral stimulation +/++
- Uplifting /mood elevating +/++/+++
- Increased tendency to be conversant +
- Stimulates creative impulses +/++/+++
- Increases ability to focus +/++
- Potential for altered perception or distortion of sensory input aural; in this case in particular it is a distortion/amplification effect where sounds or noises may seem more amplified than usual, or more detailed, take new prominence etc. +/++/+++ (this seems to be prevalent among strains associated with Haze genetics IMO)
- Adds a clarity of mind that seems to fuel a focused creatively motivating effect

BODY;
- Inner warming sensation that offers a Sensation of weightless euphoria in the chest area mostly but can seem to migrate to the legs, specifically the calves.
- Potential for appetite stimulation (relaxing of muscles in stomach/abdomen ++/+++

BEST USED:
ALL DAY WITH APPROPRIATE DOSAGE
POTENTIAL MEDICINAL + THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS
MEDICINAL:
Piñata is quite the energizing the flower with almost endless amounts of reinvigorating cerebral euphoria and focus.
But beyond this it also has a terpene profile that can be extremely effective in treating inflammatory pain and migraines.
Can help mitigate or alleviate. some symptoms associated with:
- ADD/HD (Attention Deficit Disorder)*
- Anxiety/Depression/ Stress+++
- Eating Disorders/ Lack of appetite * +++
- Migraine Headaches*
- muscle tension/stiffness/inflammation (most likely due to the higher levels o
- Myrcene and Caryophyllene) ++
*NOTE: Piñata helped me with eradicating pre-migraine symptoms and on one more occasion halted a migraine already in progress while only taking half the medication I would normally.
This is also good bc it’s not a sedative strain therefore a really good answer to a daytime migraine emerging from stress. You need pain relief but cannot afford to fall asleep or call it a day so to speak.
“In many ways Piñata’s creeping multi-layered effects mirror the expected imminent surprise of an actual Pinata : you need to hit it a few times before its treasure rains down.”
PACKAGING:
Well I can say it’s a formidable jar dram what have you. Quality state required opaqueness- I mean why would you–
Want to see the herb? At any rate…Triple 7’s is presenting this as top shelf…I would mostly agree with them on this claim; however, I think they might have had a less steep hill to climb in trying to impress. Setting up your flower to be presented in a jar, is well, making a claim more or less. Does Pinata meet the criteria? I would say technically yes.

CONCLUSION:
Piñata is the powerful and potent love child born of two extremely renowned strains Birthday Cake X Jet Fuel Gelato. Buds are tightly packed small grenade and spade shaped with an astringent peppered petroleum bitterness to its exhale and with only slight tinges of herbaceous lemon and pepper when broken apart. Pinata’s high is a blending of one high energy cerebrally dominant effect with a more tempered calm of Birthday Cake. Together they create a potent and creeping ball of pure head and body euphoria that seems to constantly replenish its own supply of energy while it works overtime to stimulate and focus the mind while relaxing the body.
THE LONG ROAD HOME (My Toke…)
Piñata brings to mind the age old adage of too much of a good thing etc etc – think 80’s conglomerate Asia- unparalleled musicians to be sure- together – maybe not the cream one would expect to rise to the top of such a rich melange of talent.—

Because cerebral inspiration seems to refuel constantly by its own reigniting of the senses, Pinata can be an all day affair- it may not have a top shelf aroma, stunning optics- or anything outwardly remarkable about its presentation , but what lies beneath is a rumbling ocean of transcendent energy whose frequency seems to repeatedly peak through the haze and provide the wind in the sails moving the ship to new shores; providing ample prodding to motivate beyond the realm of thought and transmute into demonstrable action in the real world;

This can be a sit back and roast for sure and don’t be surprised to be caught of guard and thrown off course by an airing of the Blues Brothers or some other movie or album you’ve heard a thousand times in the past/ most always enjoyed to be sure/ but now taking on a new glow and newer more decided edge of detail.
The name “Piñata” seems fitting since its high is a party neurons firing spontaneously and jolts of energizing physical and mental euphoria hitting the psyche here there and everywhere. But, the birthday cake influence tempers the Jet Fuel to a workable speed.
It’s a Creeper…
Interestingly Piñata’s effect seems somewhat delayed. At first I wasn’t able to fully appreciate its G6 and Birthday Cake/ Durban influence. In many ways Piñata’s creeping multi-layered effects mirror the expected imminent surprise of an actual Piñata : you need to hit it a few times before its treasure rains down.
But once it opens up the effect develops very nicely with equal measures of physical euphoria and mental stimulation.
I can’t give it a full 10 bc of its bitter tongue and creeping effects but it’s really close here. Birthday Cake is always a winner; it’s euphoric powers well established – and these survive here as they ground the Jet Fuel Gelato to a cruising altitude which allows for an enjoyably scenic trip.
