Krink – Exhale x Bionic Budz
Bionic Budz, one of Massachusetts’ finest, has been making waves for a while. I first reviewed their work back in 2021 when they dropped one of the best East Coast-grown Jealousy cuts, and later got to experience Rainbow Harbor through their collaborations with Exhale, one of NYC’s premier brands. Now, Bionic and Exhale are back with their latest creation—Krink.
This bold and complex strain brings together Permanent Marker x Gary Satan, delivering a sour-sweet, fuel-forward experience. The aroma is a unique blend of sherbet, musk, fuel, herbal, and floral notes, with Jealousy traits shining through from both parent strains. It instantly reminded me of the pungent scent of graffiti ink markers—strong, distinct, and impossible to ignore.
Flavor & Effects
The flavor carries over beautifully from the aroma, offering a rich mix of earthy, sweet, spicy, and cookie dough-like notes. The high is intense, cerebral, and euphoric, with a deeply relaxing body feel that sets in within just a few pulls. The smoothness on the inhale and exhale makes for an elite smoking experience, and the effects linger for three hours or more, especially after a short tolerance break.
Krink is undeniably Jealousy-dominant, showcasing the signature Permanent Marker aesthetic. This cross brings together two standout cultivars, bred by Tiki Madman, and delivers a truly elevated experience.
Big props to Exhale for curating this top-tier, East Coast-grown selection and to Bionic Budz for crafting such a flavorful, standout rendition of this cross.
