BOUKET | Pink Riot | 3.5G Flower

Bouket Pink Riot 3.5G: Sativa Eighth from a NY Brand, Hell's Kitchen Dispensary, Manhattan Pink Riot is a loud name on a small package. The Bouket Pink Riot 3.5G is an eighth of whole flower from a New York brand with roots in Harlem history, and it sits on the shelf at Cannadreams, a licensed adult-use dispensary at 862 9th Ave on the corner of West 56th Street, Hell's Kitchen. What we know, and what we do not Pink Riot does not have a widely published lineage. Strain databases do not list a confirmed cross for it, and searching the name mostly turns up other "pink" strains from unrelated breeders. Rather than guess, we will tell you the lineage is not widely published. The confirmed fact is the menu listing: Pink Riot is listed as a sativa on our menu. Any description of smell or flavor you read elsewhere would be a guess about a different plant, so judge this one from the jar. Where the name Bouket comes from Bouket, printed with an accented e on its packages, borrows a word from Harlem's past. In the jazz years, with Prohibition in force, "bouquet" was a coded way to talk about cannabis in the clubs uptown. The company describes itself as minority-owned and connected to the city's cannabis story, and its motto is "Give yourself your flowers." You will find Bouket flower in several weights on New York menus, sorted into Big Buds and Smalls, plus single prerolled joints. The eighth, explained 3.5 grams is one eighth of an ounce, the most common size for flower in New York. This package is whole, untouched flower, not ground, infused or flavored. The state-required label lists the batch number, packaging date and testing information. That label is the most reliable source of detail about this specific harvest. Choosing between an eighth and a bigger size People ask us this a lot. A few honest rules of thumb: Pick the eighth when the strain is new to you, when you like rotating through different strains, or when you use flower only now and then. Smaller packages get opened and finished before they dry out. Look at larger sizes when you already know you like a strain and go through flower steadily. Fewer trips to the store, but you will need to store it more carefully because it stays open longer. New York lets adults 21 and over possess up to 3 ounces of cannabis, according to the state Office of Cannabis Management, so even a larger jar is well inside the limit. Summer humidity and your flower New York summers are wet and sticky, and a fifth-floor walk-up with one window unit is not a climate-controlled vault. Too much moisture is a real problem for flower: it can turn spongy and, in bad cases, grow mold. In July and August, keep the eighth in an airtight glass jar in the coolest dark spot you have, maybe an interior closet. A two-way humidity pack helps hold the jar steady. If you ever see fuzzy white or gray spots, or smell something musty, do not use it. Visit us Walk-ins are welcome. We are near Central Park South, Columbus Circle and the Theater District, a short walk from the 59th Street station. You can also order online for in-store pickup and come straight to the counter. Ask us to show you Pink Riot alongside the other sativa-listed flower if you want to compare packages. Licensed means traceable Smoke shops and bodegas selling cannabis without a license are not part of the legal market, and their products have no state testing behind them. At Cannadreams, everything comes through New York's regulated market with state-required lab testing and labeling. If you are trying a strain with no published background, buying it with a real label attached matters even more. Storage the rest of the year Outside of summer the threat flips. Steam heat dries out flower fast, so keep the jar away from radiators and pipes. Keep it dark, keep it sealed and keep it at room temperature. Do not store it in the fridge or the cold storage compartment above it; temperature swings cause condensation.
