Connected | Ambrozia | 1G Preroll

Connected Ambrozia 1G Preroll: Single Joint at a Hell's Kitchen Dispensary, Manhattan Some days you do not want a jar, a grinder and a pack of papers. You want one joint, already rolled, that fits in a jacket pocket. The Connected Ambrozia 1G Preroll is exactly that, and you can pick it up at Cannadreams, the licensed adult-use cannabis dispensary at 862 9th Ave on the corner of West 56th Street in Hell's Kitchen. First, the spelling Ambrozia is spelled with a Z on purpose. It is not the older strain called Ambrosia, which comes from a completely different breeder and family tree. Customers mix the two up all the time, and online strain pages sometimes blend them together, so it is worth knowing that the Z version is a Connected original. When you ask for it at the counter, the Z is how we know you mean this one. Where Ambrozia comes from Connected Cannabis Co. publishes the lineage on its own product page: Bad Apple crossed with Z. That is about as clear as genetics get in this business, since plenty of brands keep their crosses private. On our menu, this preroll is listed as a hybrid, which lines up with how the brand itself describes the strain. Connected describes the aroma as sweet candy and tangy gas, with pine, spice and a tart fruit pie note underneath. We pass that along as the brand's own description, and the best check is still your own nose. About Connected Cannabis Co. Connected started in Sacramento, California, and built its name on indoor flower and on breeding its own cultivars rather than just buying in popular cuts. Gelonade, Tropical Z and Silver Spoon all come out of that program. In New York, Connected product is grown indoors at a facility in Buffalo under an exclusive agreement with a licensed New York operator, working from Connected's genetics. That means what you buy here was grown, packed and tested inside the state system. What one gram actually means A 1 gram preroll is a full-size joint, not a mini. For most people that is more than one sitting, so plan on sharing it or putting it out and coming back to it. If you are newer to cannabis, take a puff or two, wait, and see where you are before going further. There is no prize for finishing it in one go. Lighting a preroll properly Most bad preroll experiences come down to the light, not the flower. Hold the flame just under the tip rather than in it, and rotate the joint slowly so the whole end catches evenly. Take a gentle first pull. If one side starts burning faster, a technique people call canoeing, touch the flame to the slow side for a second and it usually evens out. If the joint goes out, tap off the ash before relighting so the old char does not dominate the next pull. Preroll or eighth? We also carry Connected Ambrozia as a 3.5 gram jar. The preroll is the way to try the strain without committing to a full eighth, and it is handy for a night out when you do not want to carry gear. The jar makes more sense once you know you like it and you would rather roll your own or use a pipe. Plenty of regulars start with the single and come back for the jar. Keeping a single in good shape A preroll lives in its tube until you need it. Do not leave it on a sunny windowsill or on top of the radiator, which dries the paper and the flower inside and makes it burn hot and fast. If you put it out halfway, let it cool completely, then keep it in the tube away from heat. A half-smoked joint is best finished within a day or two. Stopping by the counter Walk-ins are welcome, and we are a short walk from Columbus Circle, Central Park South and the Theater District. If you would rather skip the line, you can order online for in-store pickup and grab it at the counter. Ask us to show you the jar version next to the preroll so you can compare. Why we only sell licensed The tins and baggies at corner stores and smoke shops are not part of New York's legal market. Every product we sell, this Connected preroll included, comes through the regulated system with state-required lab testing and labeling, so you can read exactly what you are buying.
